Lovely hotel slightly let down by some staff
This is a beautiful hotel with spacious and well appointed public areas and bedrooms. The hotel has an interesting range of art and the furnishings are of the highest quality. There was a very good choice of food at breakfast and it was lovely to sit outside and enjoy the Bantry Bay views. The swimming pool is small but just the ticket to cool off after a busy day out. We were disappointed by our initial reception at the hotel. The receptionist was busy serving drinks to other guests and taking phone calls. We were asked to sit and wait while she busied herself for around 10 minutes and were not offered an apology or any refreshment while we waited. The other receptionist was much more professional and gave us some excellent dining suggestions and was genuinely interested in our day. This inconsistency between staff was also apparent in the waiting staff at breakfast time and is why I haven’t given the Clarendon a full five star review. However, a lovely hotel which I would recommend.
