comments Room was very clean and spacious, shower was great really powerful. Evening meal was delicious. Staff were friendly and helpful. You would need a car as its a bit of a distance from Blarney itself. Ideal for travelling into Cork city. Bad points if I'm to be critical, bed was very soft not suitable for somebody with a bad back, breakfast was just OK.

comments Had a wonderful time . The rooms were large and airy and modern. Appreciated having tea making facilities etc in room,. The staff were very pleasant and the meal was first class. Compliments to yhe chef. The leisure facilities were excellent and was reasonably busy as it was used by locals also.so it felt quite relaxing. Would definately visit again.

comments Loved the Ramada. Meal so good the first night, we booked restaurant again for second night, though service disappointing second night as it was much busier. Disappointed with Spa facilities, rang hotel at least 2 weeks before we were due to go and tried to book spa, but was told a week beforehand was plenty by receptionist at hotel; rang with one week to go and it was booked up ! Only picked that hotel because of spa. Very disappointed. Hotel lovely though.

comments The staff were very friendly and helpful,the rooms could have been brighter(decor wise) but very clean.The food in the restaurant was absolutely delicious(and i'm a chef!!),the buffet breakfast was wonderful,everything from full irish to danish pastries to freshly cut pineapple and melon..Yes it is out of the way from the madding crowd but thats exactly what we wanted..!! The husband thoroughly enjoyed the golf,he reckons it's one of the best maintained courses around.. All in all top marks all round..!! We willl be back..!

comments Overall the Ramada hotel in Blarney is a lovely hotel but I did find it very cold. The corridors leading from reception appear to be unheated and also the bedroom did not seem to heat until your room key was put into the slot. The bar would not encourage me to go in as it is far too small plus very impersonal. A very large TV was on every evening I visited blaring out sport which seemed to be the choice of the barman. I think low intimate music would have been much better. After all if I wanted to watch TV I would have stayed in my room. I do think that the seating arrangement in the bar is very bad with quite a lot of wasted space.

comments The bedroom were great lots of space. We also had dinner ther which was good. The breakfast was mixed on the first morning there was no fresh fruit available and cooked breakfast was a bit dry and on our second morning it was good and fruit was available. The location of the hotel is quite, being a few miles from Blarney village but if you want a relaxing stay then it is good. I would recommend it to a friend and I would return

comments Everytihng was brilliant in the hotel apart from when we tried to book dinner on our first night we were told the restaurant was closed(Sunday) and that food in the bar was available until 6. We went to the bar to be told that there was no food menu, and then also found out that food in the golf club house finished at 6.30....so we decided on room service because we had both drank alcohol and were not going to drive to a restaurant, only to discover that there was no room service on Sundays or Mondays!! What are guests meant to do for food? Surely more peolpe along with my husband and I like to eat??!!

comments The hotel, the location, the staff, the restaurant, the pool -were all excellent, and, if truth be known, above my expectation. We had a marvellously relaxing weekend, and will definitely be back. There was the smallest chink in Ramada's armour - when we arrived, the room was prepared as a twin room - not as the double that was booked. This was rectified very quickly, however.

comments With reference to our stay in the Ramada Hotel and Suites at the Blarney Golf Resort in Cork. I would like to let you know that we had a very pleasant stay at the Hotel. We had a family of four and booked two rooms which were connected. Rooms are very spacious and comfortable. Staff both at reception and restaurant very helpful. The leisure centre is very conveniently reached at the reception area and was of the highest standard. The hotel is situated outside the village of Blarney but it is in a good location for touring Cork. Overall we had a very enjoyable visit and highly recommend a visit to the hotel.

comments I stayed at the Ramada Blarney for two nights, from Jul 20th to 22nd '07, with five other guests. We were very impressed with the hotel and with our rooms, they were absolutely beautiful. The service was also extremely good and the staff were lovely. The only complaint we had was with our meal in the restaurant on Friday night. Four meals were served fifteen minutes before the other two. We were not informed there was a delay or a mix up with the orders. By the time the last two meals arrived everyone else was finished. We were very dissatisfied with the meal and service. However, that was the only complaint we had over the whole weekend. I would not hesitate to recommend the hotel, it is a haven of luxury and relaxation!

comments We had a very enjoyable break at the Ramada Hotel, Blarney. There wasn't one thing we could complain about. The staff were very friendly and helpful and most professional. The room was everything you could wish for - spotless, large and beautiful views of golf course. I would always choose Ramada again where ever I travel if they were available.

comments This was my second time to visit the Ramada Hotel and was not disappointed with the quality of the hotel or the standard of service. The rooms are very spacious and comfortable. I found the restaurant very good and service to be of a high standard. There is a golf course adjacent to the hotel for anyone interested. A car is a must to get to the hotel as it is a few miles outside blarney on a country road. If there were any faults (and they were minor), the hotel can be a little difficult to find and there was no snack menu in the bar (although I was advised there is one in the golf club). Overall a very pleasant stay and a good base for touring Cork/Kerry.

comments We enjoyed our stay very much. The staff were most helpfull and friendly. The room decor wasmordern and comfortable with a wonderful balcony from which you could enjoy the tranquility of the extensive grounds. However the negative comment I would have is the disorganised method of table srevice for breakfast. While the staff were most obliging and friendly, no one abeared to have a set table and you would have to ask for eg milk, toast plates for buffet etc. I found this to be the case when I stayed last year also.

comments Friendly staff and lovely decor both throughout the hotel and in our room. I thought the bar was a little small especially when people are finished dinner and came into the bar for a drink there was a struggle to get a seat. Also if having breakfast late there was very little food left and it was necessary to ask staff to bring additional plates, bowls etc.

comments I was very dissapointed, Quoting the Ramada as being a Blarney Hotel for me is a False advertisment. It is over 5 KM from Blarney and should be advertised as Tower and not Blarney. We spend over ?100 in taxis (4384477) as we expected to avail of the Blarney Bus service. It was not safe to walk to the Tower bus Service. The Hotel is fine but we were dissaponted with the location, we have stayed in Blarney many times and when you add 100?+ to the cost of the Ramada the alternative Blarney options would be more attractive. I reccomend a shuttle bus to Balarney. Please reply with your comments / repsonse.
