The 10 best hotels in Dingle, Ireland

August 10, 2022 Brain Ambrose

Perched on the hem of the Atlantic in Ireland's southwest, charming Dingle looks out over Dingle Bay to the Blasket Islands. Chock full of friendly pubs where live traditional music plays, the Irish-speaking area fills to the brim with tourists on weekends and through summer. Another regular visitor to Dingle's Gulf Stream-warmed waters is Fungi, the dolphin, the town's unofficial mascot. Popular tourist attractions include the beaches, Mount Brandon and Ballydavid and Ballyferriter villages.

Dingle Skellig... All the best of our dreams of Ireland

Reviewed By donceil

My husband and I had been looking forward to this trip to Ireland for 2 years, since the pandemic forced cancellation of our original trip, a milestone birthday celebration, scheduled in 2020. During that delay, we imagined the visit becoming the best of our dreams of Ireland . That it was exactly that is fundamentally due to our stay at the Dingle Skellig Hotel. We arrived at the hotel ridiculously early from our flight from JFK to Shannon and were immediately welcomed by Karen who totally surprised us with news that our room was ready. Kirsten and the team had made great efforts to make this welcoming gesture possible. Kirsten then sent up "belated birthday" chocolates to our room. Talk about feeling welcome and taken care of! This warmth, enthusiasm, energy and attention to details seemed to permeate all of the Skellig's staff. Our room was extremely comfortable , feeling both elegant as we watched sunsets over Dingle Bay and the Kerry Hills from our full glass bay window, sipping sparkling water from the refrigerator or wine, and like home away from home with comfortable back supportive furniture (bed, sofa, chairs), and a sparkling fully stocked bath with a dual control rain fall shower (actually better than home! :-) The restaurants were wonderful - they have an excellent kitchen. The dishes were delicious and the service was attentive, friendly and efficient, even when they were managing two weddings over the weekend we were there. Quite impressive. Jurgita, who was hostess in the Coast Guard Restaurant the night we designated as our birthday celebration dinner surprised us by seating us in the "best table in the restaurant" (which it was), bringing our dessert with birthday candles on each, and then graciously taking beautiful pictures of us out on the patio. On another evening Mr. Fitzgerald, the GM, totally surprised us with a complimentary bottle of wine with our dinner. This is a beautiful hotel in a breathtakinly beautiful setting with extremely comfortable rooms and excellent restaurants. But what makes it special most of all are the warm, welcoming, helpful staff. They take everything up a notch with their enthusiasm and unfailing effort to make your stay everything you hope for. We can't thank them enough!

Great Stay, Stunning View

Reviewed By 949rich

I stayed for one night while hiking the Dingle Way enr Mt. Brandon. Room had extra windows and felt extraordinarily spacious and airy. Great views of the mountains to the east. Owners were very kind and offered to take me to various trailheads to help reduce the burdens of hiking the next day. They drove me to a pub for dinner as well. Management professional and breakfast was great. I would go out of my way to stay here again.

Thank you for considering our place. This is a beautiful property – a luxurious townhouse in a great location in Dingle town. There are 10 en-suite rooms in total – the rear of the building has 2 king size rooms which have harbour/ Garden views and 5 Superking rooms with views of the garden and some have views of the Harbour also & the 3 front rooms are large super-king rooms with street views and of Conor pass hills. All of the beds are really comfy! As well as beautiful bedrooms; a large light filled open plan living room opens out onto a patio area and a very large garden. The garden is enclosed by the original stone walls - creating a private space in the centre of town - and backs onto the Díseart chapel & grounds. Indeed the chapel's famous Harry Clarke windows overlook the bottom of the garden. We're always more than happy to give you any tips/ advice on places to see.

Sleek luxury in a perfect location for a visit to Dingle

Reviewed By Mary Beth E

Beautiful B&B in historic building with modern, sleek (but comfortable!) interior design. Perfect location- right at the edge of the fun stuff: pubs, shops, restaurants but just beyond the noise cone. Crisp sheets, large showers and a breakfast so bountiful it was hard to avoid being wasteful. Homemade scones and bread. Hosts are gracious and helpful. If you’re visiting Dingle, you should stay here!

Great older style hotel in good location

Reviewed By bocajohn

Finally a motel that has NOT been remodeled and does away with desks, chests and comfortable chairs. All present here and leather chairs really a treat. In heart of shopping district and close to Harbor front especially exiting thru car park. Great staff. They focus more on restaurant than bar which is a good thing - great food and quieter. Plenty of bars nearby for watching sports, etc. Only minor complaint is twin bed was sloping on one side badly. Overall high marks.

We truly had an amazing time at this lovely guest house and pub tucked into the Irish countryside. The rooms were spacious and clean. The staff, especially Morris and Kat were the friendliest and most attentive we encountered on our trip. Morris was even thoughtful enough to arrange for my niece to bottle feed some of the lambs. The pub is small and intimate and dining area large and serving excellent food.

Amazing weekend in Dingle to run the half marathon and a large part of this was down to my stay at Harbour Nights. Kathleen couldn't have been more helpful despite been very busy and was so friendly and funny at all times. The room was great with a stunning view and location couldn't be better. Dingle is such an amazing town and this gem and Kathleen add to this special place. Looking forward to returning....with a running watch that charges this time :-)

Ideal location at such an affordable price. The rooms were modern and had the comfiest beds I had ever been in. The place was clean and fresh. Although it was so central there was no noise from the street below. Would definitely recommend staying here when in dingle.
