This property would berated a 2.5 star. The staff were great but everything is cheap in the room. My queen bed was made up of two cheap mattresses that were different heights. The single bed was cheap.

Absolutely amazing staff from the minute we walked into the hotel. No elevator and we had very heavy bags so they delivered them to our door. We had to check out an hour before breakfast so they made us a fresh breakfast at 7:30am. Went to their bar and very friendly bartenders. Offered excellent suggestions for going around town. Parking was on street and super convenient. Hotel was very clean and looked recently updated. Definitely 5 star for us!
jodi
The hotel staff were so lovely, it was our favorite stop on a 8 day day trip to Ireland! We wished we’d had another night at this charming hotel!

Pros & Cons
Pros: Owners and restaurant servers were friendly and helpful. Location was good, close to town.Excellent food at the hotel restaurant.
Cons: Uncomfortable bed and pillows. Noise. No elevator - had to drag our luggage up and down 3 flights of stairs and staff to help (ages: 85, 79, 80, 68). Only 3 parking spots for entire hotel/restaurant and very little street parking available. Probably wouldn’t stay here again or recommend to friends.

Delicious food and convenient location
The food was so delicious. We ate dinner here both nights of our stay.
Wendy
This little family run establishment should be full each and every day. The rooms are spacious (there’s only 10) and super comfortable. We had dinner in the restaurant downstairs - BEST meal we had on the trip. Absolutely loved our stay and we’re already planning our return trip!
Judith
We had a lovely time.
Lorraine
Just OK
On checking in and having dinner the experience was excellent, the room was dated and basic but suitable to my needs for a place to stay on a business trip. After a long day, I looked forward to getting into bed and much to my annoyance, all I could hear were loud voices, The Cranberries being played on repeat loudly and dishes being moved around. This was approx 10.30pm. On picking up the phone in the room to call, it did not work so I had to call the hotel from my mobile and the gentleman on reception said it was the kitchen I was over and said he would have the music turned off. Then at 4.30am I was awoken by the room overhead walking around and the flooor boards creaking as they moved and again at 6.30am. There was not tea/coffee i the room so I had to go for a walk to a local store at 7am to buy a coffee as breakfast is not served till 8.30 in the hitel and I was leaving at that time
Christiana
Super friendly staff and very walkable into town centre without being in the middle of town. Street parking was a bit tricky but went in busy season
Callie
The staff was great and very helpful. Breakfast was delicious. The room and bed were old and not very clean. Close to town, the harbor, and lots of pubs and restaurants. Parking is on the street wherever you can find a spot. Overall, very average but if you're not picky you'll be fine!
Justin
Room was comfortable. Had a good stay, not in the bar/business area but very walkable (minutes) which is nice if you want to relax earlier in the evening. That being said, found some great pubs with live music easily. Breakfast was excellent!

A stay to remember
-Dated furniture and decoration.
-Mouldy Hotel Information Folder.
-Bottom sheet doesn’t cover the mattress.
-Rusting bed lights with dusty lamp shades.
-Cobwebs in the corner.
-Shower temperature goes very hot and cold
-Damaged shower tray.
-There were two hand towels for our stay, yes one each.
-Bathroom door lock not working.
-Hole in the ceiling with wires poking out was a smoke detector. There is one nearer the bed.
-TV picture freezes and breaks up preventing you from watching a programme.
-Bathroom illuminated mirror doesn’t light.
-Heated towel rail not turned on.
This is important as if you decided to have a shower or wash in the evening your one towel will still be wet in the morning. So do you wash at night or morning.
Some may ask why I have given such a high star rating to The White Lady, Kinsale. I would like as many people as possible to read my review so they can decide if they would also like to have the same experiences we had.

Great value in Kinsale. Nice pub/restaurant on site, or you can walk to the heart of Kinsale in about 5 minutes. Parking is on-street but we found close parking both nights. Would stay there again!
Celene
Super nice and helpful staff. Terrible beds. Super lumpy.
Elizabeth
We were put in a room that needed an update…
If you stay here, ask for a remodeled room. The beds in our room were hard, surface level cleaning was done, but there were definitely some questionable spots in the bathroom… staff were kind breakfast was good… The price was high based on other hotels in the area.

random April weekend
The hotel is lovely and clean, the decorations are very modern and everything was very comfortable for us.
The address on hotels.com was a little off and it took us down the wrong street - it took us a few minutes to figure out where it was.
Our TV was a little wonky, but the owner came up straight away to fix it, and he bought us a drink at the bar for the inconvenience.
The food and drinks were lovely. The wait staff were all very friendly and quick to help.
We had a great time. Thank you, well be back!

The property had a lot of character and was conveniently located in the village of Kinsale. Owner present and friendly. Parking at the property is extremely limited.
Offsite parking is up a nearby hill, quite a haul from the property and was not a suitable option for us. Overall a pleasant stay.

Good spot
Excellent on all counts. Anthony was a superb host along with accommodating us ad-hoc for a second night. Good food too and pleasant efficient staff. Only negative is parking, with only 3 spaces at site. Public parking is roughly 100 metres up a steep hill road.
Verified traveler
Very clean and comfortable room. The only issue for us was that there were no tea or coffee making facilities in the room.
Thomas
The room was a bit tired. The party noise outside was pretty intolerable. If you can sleep through anything, then this location is worth it. The windows are not enough to block out the very loud party noise outside that went past midnight. The manager we met was a tall heavy fellow that was quite loud and friendly at first, then obnoxious.
Kisale is a very nice town and this location is good. If you can sleep though the loud noise I would stay here. But I personlaly wouldn't again.

Anthony was an amazing host. Food at restaurant was superb. Bathroom could have used a shelf or two.

The room was very small and smelled like cigarettes. We had to carry our luggage up multi flights to top floor. We could barely open the doors due to the weight of them. We could see into the apartment across the way which means they could seeinto our room CLEARY!!

They are trying but the place is a challenge
The staff is very nice. Owner involved all day in operation and is very nice and very helpful. We booked two nights and stayed only one as the noise from the street was impossible. We ended up paying for two nights.
Temperatures were warm and without air-conditioning or fans the window had to stay open. Left us with a miserable night.

Great location to walk everywhere with their own free parking onsite. Roman and Anthony are wonderful hosts. The Full Irish breakfast included! Dinner at The White Lady is on par with all good restaurants in Kinsale and we tried several: The Black Pig, Fishy Fishy, The White House to name a few. Enjoyed the music and Guinness at Kitty 0'sea's. Roman called ahead and got us entry into Old Head GC for lunch. Didn't play it this time but a true golfer's dream course about 15 minute drive. Also visited Charles Fort in Kinsale. The White Lady is the perfect place to stay in Kinsale. Almost forgot, the welcoming bar at end of our day for a nightcap of Irish Whiskey. My favorites Redbreast 12yr Single Pot and the Yellowspot. Sláinte!

The White Lady was pricey, especially for the size of the room. We had scrambled eggs for breakfast, they clearly were not fresh and been sitting around awhile. The staff/owner were very helpful. The location is perfect for easy access to Kinsale.

Clean but expensive for what it was
Unfortunately for us we found the white lady hotel to be very expensive for what it was. The room was clean and spacious. The bathroom was tired. The accommodation was quiet and easy walking to the cbd. The car park was right next door. Breakfast could have been better.
