We really enjoying walking and jogging the trails around the hotel and taking a dip in the sea. The setting is beautiful, the staff are friendly and competent and the pool and sauna are equally good. I loved the fact that children are not allowed in the pool from 8am to 10am and from 6pm to 8pm to allow adults actually do some swimming - more hotels should institute that rule. Our only disappointment was when we arrived and found our room looked really tired and really needed a refurb. We feared that was what the rest of the hotel would be like (it wasn’t). Moreover, the manager gave us a discount on an upgrade and that instead set the tone for our stay. We will be back.

Parknasilla continues to be a stand-out hotel and resort. The rooms are excellent, the restaurant is great, the grounds are wonderful, and the pools are lovely. My only gripe, and it's got little or nothing to do with the facility, is that the main swimming pool was overrun with kids diving, jumping, running, and shouting. In many respects, a beautiful noise, even if it ruled out a gentle adult swim. Renting head caps, required for pool use, at 3 euros was a little naff, but just a detail. We've been to Parknasilla a number of times and will be back.

The most beautiful setting I’ve ever seen! The grounds and the outside of the property are amazing. The inside needs a refurbishment. Feels worn out and the bar had kids sitting at it with prams, it was hard to get a drink. Amazing golf course but golf house is small and feels disorganized.

Nice not great
Grounds were nice. Hotel rooms were small , electric plugs were all under desks so you had to get down on the floor to plug in. Windows did not have black out drapes. Food was only served in the restaurant. My room was suppose to be a sea view and you could see it if you look out to the right but not right out the window.

Fabulous resort
One of the most beautiful spots in all of Ireland- and we’ve seen a lot of the country. The hotel was spacious, super clean and excellent staff & crew. I’ve never seen such cleaning practices in a hotel/resort. Food & drinks were fabulous and the amenities were great too. Walking paths were a great way to see the shoreline and the forest. Played the 9 hole course too ⛳️

Top quality 4 star hotel
Pleasantly surprised at the quality of the hotel and its setting. We stayed for 3 nights and loved every minute. The spa and beach/sea swimming were our favourite activities. Good 4 star breakfast, lunch and dinner. The evening entertainment (live singing and instrumental) paired with the dim lighting and overall ambiance made for perfect evening meals. Overall, a great stay. Would recommend!
