The Blue Haven Hotel

The Blue Haven Hotel is perfectly situated near the harbor of Kinsale. Easy walking distance to most of the key sites of Kinsale, and to all the best pubs. The modern bathrooms with a heated towel rack were an unexpected pleasure. Breakfast breads in Ireland are delicious, but especially the French Toast at the Blue Haven. Staff was universally friendly and helpful. The restaurant on site has live music every night. We listened two nights in a row, both times the musicians were great.

We stayed here over the weekend for a family event, a birthday which we celebrated within the hotel on one of days, and everyone enjoyed themselves massively. We stayed for three nights with family and friends, with everyone enjoying their stay, for level of service, food, atmosphere, welcoming environment and just a great place to be located when exploring Kinsale. Breakfast was good, fresh hot food delivered. We did eat one evening within the hotel and all agreed the food was very good. The staff were excellent, friendly and so helpful. Our room had a relaxing feel to it, larger than most and the one on the web site, so plenty of room, so great place to chill and unwind. When we come back, we will have no hesitation in staying again. Many thanks to all, from the moment we arrived to time we had to say goodbye.

Fantastic welcome, service and hospitality over our weekend stay 14-17 February for my birthday celebrations at the Blue Haven. We had a mixed group of guests as part of the booking including some local to Cork, from other parts of Ireland and a lot of people from the UK - 3 of whom were experiencing their first visit to Ireland, all really enjoyed it. Special mention to Marita Kelleher who was my co-ordinator plus all the housekeeping, reception, bar and restaurant staff teams who all who went out of their way to make our stay such an enjoyable experience. Relaxing in the lounges was a pleasure and the bar service, live music and restaurant meals were exceptional. We will be back ......

Ours was a non-resident Dining experience. From the moment we arrived to when we left, we felt valued. Agata and her colleague made us feel very welcome. The food was very well presented, hot food was hot, portion sizes perfect. And considering it was a Monday, tasteful live music was a lovely surprise. We’ll definitely be back!
