Highly recommend and 5 stars for Carlos

We had a lovely stay at this hotel! Firstly the views were absolutely amazing. Breakfast was delicious—we had the full Irish and really enjoyed it. The rooms are a little dated in terms of decor, but they were very spacious and, most importantly, very clean. What really made our stay special, though, was Carlos. This was our first trip away with our newborn, and he went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable. He helped us sterilise bottles, which made a huge difference and took a lot of stress off us. We also arrived quite late and missed the dinner service, but Carlos kindly put together a sandwich for both me and my partner. His helpfulness truly stood out and made our experience all the more memorable. Would highly recommend the Sneem Hotel.

The location sells this hotel, but unfortunately my experience was marred by ridiculous noises coming from the (switched off) air-conditioning unit during the small hours...and the quality of the breakfast wasn't at 4* standards - poor choices of cereal, and cold poached eggs were served.

The sea view side alone is worth the visit. Very spacious rooms. Decent food options for lunch - but if you have halal/kosher restrictions might want to eat out instead. Breakfast was great. Staff were nice and friendly. Server speeds at the dining table may shock you if you're from NA (makes sense since they don't rely on tips), but they are still reasonable and on par with EU standards/expectations so please be patient on that front. Very convenient parking space, beautiful location with every local restaurants/shopping places within walking distance. If I ever come back to Ireland for another visit, this place is a must-stay at for me.

Really lovely hotel and grounds in a quiet and beautiful setting overlooking the water and mountains. Staff was friendly and helpful, meals were good (dinner and breakfast), and especially enjoyed seeing the owner's Irish Setter, Red, running around!

Lovely hotel and dog!

Great little hotel, central to ring of kerry and near to walk to sneem. But whatever about the hotel, the best feature of this hotel (and I mean this in the best way!) is "Red", the resident Red setter dog who is in charge! Go, stay, ask to see "Red" and make ur holiday complete!

Initially the room given wasn’t the one we were expecting (overlooking a car park and a single Headboard for a double bed) They changed us to aN apartment which was lovely. We only had breakfast at the venue which was nice but the staff (particularly a young girl) was very unwelcoming there was a short walk to other bars and restaurants The views and grounds were beautiful and we enjoyed our stay

Thoroughly enjoyed our brief overnight stay at Sneem Hotel! Very friendly and accommodating staff, and the bar/dining area was nice. Breakfast was outstanding! The cleanliness was mostly great, though some room service items were left in the hallway overnight and there were some signs of minor wear and tear. Generally would love to return and stay longer!

Separate floor for dogs.

Dogs barking on bedroom corridor at 6.00am and running loose later in the morning. When dogs are allowed they should be kept in a separate area.
