“This hotel stands out for its prime Dingle location, right in the heart of the town. The on-site parking is a definite plus, but be prepared for potential noise from the nearby pubs and the lack of an elevator in the older section of the property. Despite these minor drawbacks, the charm and the award-winning breakfast make it a worthwhile stay.”
