4.0“Disappointing”
+Overpriced, paid €270 per night for 2 nights purely because it advertised a sauna and hot tubs. The sauna and hot tubs are only open from 10am to 6pm. This is neither here nor there if you want to do anything else in the area. I feel they want to charge the big rates for a spa hotel but don't want to pay staff to keep it open. The rooms are basic and the hotel is dated. I was sorry I stayed here, the place is clean but very basic. Very disappointing..

2.0“Disappointed”
+Won’t be returning unfortunately. Our stay was disappointing largely due to my experience checking in at reception. The young redhead girl who checked us in was disinterested, lacking professionalism and rather unwelcoming on arrival, which set an unfortunate tone from the outset. This girl proceeded to tell us the spa was fully booked out however later on we were informed that the spa was not in use, something we had been very much looking forward to, this was not communicated to us prior to our arrival. She gave no apology or no provision was made to mitigate the inconvenience, this girl was quite dismissive which made the situation all the more frustrating. It’s a pity, as a warmer welcome and honesty about the no spa facilities for our stay from the start would have made a significant difference to the overall impression of the hotel. Breakfast was very good, and dinner was also nice, staff in the restaurant and bar were fantastic, may return to restaurant however won’t be staying due to this experience.

10.0“New Year's Eve Wedding”
+We had an amazing few days in the Eccles Hotel for our wedding on New Year's Eve. The hotel was fabulous!! Perfect for a winter wedding, with it's cosy & warm atmosphere, fires in the reception area, historic building, beautiful decor & stunning view from the exceptional bridal suite. Mags, Dylan & their team were a dream to deal with, incredibly helpful, professional & welcoming. They made the whole process very easy for us & many of our guests commented on their attentive hospitality over the few days. The food in the hotel was delicious & the staff were very accommodating to our guests at breakfast each morning. We couldn't rate the hotel high enough & we would definitely recommended the Eccles as a wedding venue to any couple.

10.0“Wonderful Winter Wedding”
+Myself and my (now) wife like to treat ourselves to nice weekend breaks down at Eccles, we just love the hotel's unique charm of old historic exterior, modern bedroom decor, amazing food and a delightful spa to relax away the stresses of life while looking out toward Garinish Island and Bantry Bay. We chose to have our wedding reception at Eccles hotel as we already knew the service provided by the hotel staff was to a very high level. Mags who is the hotel's wedding coordinator met with us early on, guided us through the wedding planning and really went above and beyond to make our Wedding Reception at Eccles Hotel so special (thanks again Mags!). We were thrilled with the quality of the reception, the exceptional food and outstanding service from start to finish. Many of our wedding guests have mentioned to us that they are already planning a return stay at the hotel as they were so impressed. We would highly recommend couples planning a wedding reception to consider Eccles Hotel.

10.0“Wedding venue of the year!”
+We got married in the Eccles in September 2025. What an experience!! From day 1 of going to see the hotel& initial contact to the day of the wedding& even after, we couldn't find a single fault. Mags, the wedding coordinator, and manager Dylan were the most professional, friendly & helpful people. We couldn't have asked for anymore. Mags made the whole experience so stress free. The food was nothing short of amazing- and is every time we visit for a stay or just lunch. The bridal suite is beautiful. We cant wait to come back again for another stay. The Eccles is second to none. A truly family orientated, friendly place. Staff like Mags are one of a kind. Our wedding wouldnt have been the same without her!

10.0“Dream Wedding Venue!”
+We had our wedding @ the Eccles on May 10th 2025 and everything was perfect from start to finish! Mags and all the staff went over and above from the minute we first met them and we couldn’t have wished for more. Our guests are still talking about how much they loved everything from the rooms to the food and the amazing cocktails at our drinks reception ! The tasting afternoon was a close second to the wedding day itself!! 🤤 Mags added so many personal touches to the day for us and the chef even incorporated some of my dads local west cork honey in our desert 🍯🐝 We can’t wait to come back for a visit soon 😍

10.0“Wedding”
+We had our wedding reception at the Eccles in September 2025. If you are looking for a wedding venue I couldn't recommend it highly enough. We planned the wedding from Australia which we thought would make it difficult. Mags and the team went above and beyond and made everything so easy. They were so accommodating and Mags had suggestions for things we could do that we would never have thought of. The food was amazing and all dietary requirements were catered for which our guests really appreciated. The location is stunning and the hotel has so much character it makes it stand out from other hotels in West Cork. We had the best day and we are so happy we chose the Eccles ❤️
