What guests think

At The Old Bank Town House, guests praise the central location, warm staff, and standout breakfast, while some note small or dated rooms, street and hallway noise, occasional maintenance problems, and the absence of air conditioning in certain rooms.

Parking is typically on street and can be tricky. Rooms can be comfortable and some offer harbor views, but reports include weak showers, TV issues, and temperature control challenges due to old windows. Service is generally warm and helpful, though check-in at a nearby sister property caused confusion for a few. Overall, it suits travelers who prioritize charm and location over modern conveniences.

Great location. The room was cozy and had all that we needed. It isn’t fancy or new. It’s just charming authentic and cozy. And right in town. Had to park for free in a nearby lot. Not an issue.

Location is great and staff were super nice. The room itself was a little tight and tired. Parking can be a nightmare anywhere in downtown Kinsale, so if you don't have a car, you'll be alright.

Lovely boutique hotel right in the centre of Kinsale. Beautiful rooms and spotlessly clean. Nice staff - very friendly. No bar or restaurant but not needed as the little cafe on the ground floor was lovely and there are plenty of bars and restaurants nearby. Totally recommend staying here.

Room was a quite dated but bed was comfortable. Bathroom nice but unfortunately jacuzzi not working. Check-in was at sister hotel down the street but we did not realise this before arrival. Also, no parking available for hotel guests so we had to pay for on-street parking. Breakfast however, was really excellent and location of hotel was good.

I would never ever stay at this property again, room needs condemned, plug sockets broken, iron broken, hairdryer, yes Broken, window frame full of mould, window would not close, road noise was horrible, towels smelt of sour milk, mould on the bath, every single floor board squeaked, nobody available on reception the following morning to complain too, avoid at all costs. I will be seeking a full refund from Hotels . Com

This property was not much better than a backpackers and did not live up to reviews. No air conditioning. The bathroom was so in need of refurbishment cracked basin and toilet. Carpet needed replacing, things needing repairing. If we hadn’t got the windows opened we would not have been able to stay. Only redeeming feature was staff and location.

We were very concerned about our stay and the conditions of the hotel. The door handle would not work properly and made it extremely difficult to get in and out of the room. The handle spun around, but didn’t engage and open and shut the door. There was mold in our room which can be seen in the picture attached. We attempted to find hotel staff to advise but could not find a staff at the reception. Upon checking our accounts we noticed that we were overcharged. I have written to the hotel twice already and have had no response. I generally do not like to leave bad reviews, but I felt that this was necessary given the above. I definitely would not recommend this hotel.

So I had food envy as I sadly opted for scrambled eggs in toast. However had I ordered a pastry I don’t think I would have been disappointed as they looked delicious. I would recommend this hotel.

So friendly, great recommendations, charming atmosphere, wonderfully located. Will come back.

Went to blue haven to check in at old bank house as instructed. They said they tried to contact me that we couldn’t stay there due to a maintenance issue and had to stay at blue haven. No compensation. Firstly I’ve had endless messages advertising so I don’t believe they couldn’t contact me. They also had my email and number to leave voicemail. Paid $30eu pp for the world’s smallest breakfast. Madness. Wouldn’t return. Bags of laundry in the hall for the entire stay too. Dingy room. Disappointed.
