Our hotel was amazing. From the valet parking to the front desk to the housekeepers. Everyone was amazing and helpful. The grounds were outstanding and well kept. The pool and leisure center was a great place to visit. Breakfast was delightful. They say it gets busy between 9-10 and it is. But go earlier or set proper expectations.

From the moment you arrive you’ll be made feel extremely welcome. Great friendly and helpful staff always in full view and willing to help with any inquiries you may have.There is a choice of restaurants within the resort plus a great little gastro pub within walking distance, but if needed the resort will drive you there. Great location and only 2 km from the Middleton to Youghal green way which is extremely well worth the trip. Great golfing on site also. Well worth a visit. Breakfast is excellent!

This place was absolutely stunning!! The staff was so amazing and helpful. Their driver took us down for dinner at The Hunted Hog in town and it was so delicious. Our room was beautiful and so spacious. A complimentary bottle of wine was waiting upon our arrival. Would book this again and again and again!!! Unfortunately it was raining so we didn’t get to explore the grounds but from what I could see, that was also spectacular.

Quick overnight stay while in the area

Castlemartyr is beautiful, the grounds, the hotel, the facilities, the rooms - it’s 5* all the way. Decided to come here last minute for a one night stay and it was well worth it. Had a couple of drinks in the canopy bar which was super relaxed, lovely dip in the pool and then dinner in the Hunted Hog pub - which was excellent and very good value. Breakfast was great, as expected. All round a great night away and would definitely go back.

We love this property, it has beautiful grounds. The service is always amazing and food was excellent. Only knock is the hotel is starting to age, with seats in bar looking worn and bedding worn on edges. Little investment on the fine details can go along way, especially in a 5 star hotel.

The views on the property were amazing. The location was great. The food was great. The staff in the Canopy restaurant/bar were amazing. Beautiful rooms. We loved the property but were disappointed with our check in. Upon arrival, at check in time, we were told it would only be a few minutes. It took almost an hour. That’s not the end of the world but worth mentioning. My biggest concern was cleanliness. On multiple occasions we had to ask for clean silverware as the ones given to us were nasty and the teacups were never clean. It was disappointing that such a nice, high rated hotel had these issues.

Fantastic return visit.

Another wonderful stay at the Castlemartyr Resort ! It never seems possible as you leave, but each time you return the offering seems to improve. We received an upgrade to what are already some of the most comfortable and spacious hotel rooms in Ireland.
We also enjoyed a visit to Terre, their 2 Michelin Star restaurant. Based on that experience, I suspect they are well on their way to a third star soon.
The resort really is a place apart - recommended.

Our arrival was really disappointing. After traveling 12 hours, we arrived a couple of hours before check-in. I had emailed beforehand to inform them of our arrival time in the hopes that we would be able to check-in early. Our room wasn’t ready which we took well given that we were early. No problem we went off to get something to eat and explore a bit. We were gone for a little over an hour, the exhaustion coupled with the time change got us, especially our 5 year old. We went to sit in the lobby and watched as other guests arrived early and were able to check-in and go to their rooms. At this point, we really began to get upset. Why were these guests able to check-in? There was no offer of a more comfortable place to wait or vouchers for a drink or bite at ok of the restaurants, pretty standard procedure in a case like this. We continued to wait, past the designated check-in time. Close to 3 hours waiting. We were finally given our key cards and sent up, relieved to finally be able to rest only to arrive and find that the room wasn’t ready and someone was still there trying to finish cleaning/setting up. We felt so bad for the fellow, it was his first day he told us, clearly very nervous. So, we awkwardly stood at the door, as the poor man rushed to finish. Why had reception sent us up? No real acknowledgment of this situation, not acceptable at a “5 star” hotel, especially not acceptable when you book one of the nicer/expensive suites. Not 5 star hotel lack of attention

On the “other” side of the ledger—we were unable to get into any of the food outlets, and instead had to dine at the Wednesday BBQ. It was a bit tired, but food tasted alright. That was the ONLY thing that took away from the experience.

Lovely hotel in a nice location

Lovely hotel valet service on arrival and a lovely welcome glass of processo ( nice touch). Deluxe room very nice and laid out on floor 3 of the new wing with nice balcony. A few scuff marks on furniture needs updating but overall lovely. Nice ballon and bar of chocolate left for my birthday (thank you).
Only downfall throw no fault of hotel there was a lot of families with kids and at 10.30 pm at night and from 7.30am they were running up and down the halls this should not be allowed so the hotel should have a policy on this. It’s not fair on other residents as we are all paying 5 star prices.
Food for dinner in canopy is excellent and we ate in the club house which was also nice. Breakfast was ok (our worst meal) it was abit scattered and busy and the cook to order omelette was poor but eggs benidict was nice. Also tray of jam had all the same this should be mixed! And more effort to self service table for variety of cooked meats and cheeses / bread.
Grounds are lovely for walk or cycle. And near the village.
I used the swimming pool and feel it’s needs cleaning you can see green on tiles and some chips and thermal areas needs updating slightly.
Overall lovely stay in cork just some minor changes needed to keep in line with other 5 star hotels we have stayed in Ireland such as adare manor, trump doonbeg and Europa Kerry.
