During our two week stay in Ireland, we spent one night here, and this is by far one of the best places. Spa and pool facilities were 2nd to none and the restaurants provided great food and fantastic service. There are walking paths around the large facility as well. Would go back given the opportunity !

We really enjoying walking and jogging the trails around the hotel and taking a dip in the sea. The setting is beautiful, the staff are friendly and competent and the pool and sauna are equally good. I loved the fact that children are not allowed in the pool from 8am to 10am and from 6pm to 8pm to allow adults actually do some swimming - more hotels should institute that rule. Our only disappointment was when we arrived and found our room looked really tired and really needed a refurb. We feared that was what the rest of the hotel would be like (it wasn’t). Moreover, the manager gave us a discount on an upgrade and that instead set the tone for our stay. We will be back.

Parknasilla continues to be a stand-out hotel and resort. The rooms are excellent, the restaurant is great, the grounds are wonderful, and the pools are lovely. My only gripe, and it's got little or nothing to do with the facility, is that the main swimming pool was overrun with kids diving, jumping, running, and shouting. In many respects, a beautiful noise, even if it ruled out a gentle adult swim. Renting head caps, required for pool use, at 3 euros was a little naff, but just a detail. We've been to Parknasilla a number of times and will be back.

The most beautiful setting I’ve ever seen! The grounds and the outside of the property are amazing. The inside needs a refurbishment. Feels worn out and the bar had kids sitting at it with prams, it was hard to get a drink. Amazing golf course but golf house is small and feels disorganized.

Nice not great

Grounds were nice. Hotel rooms were small , electric plugs were all under desks so you had to get down on the floor to plug in. Windows did not have black out drapes. Food was only served in the restaurant. My room was suppose to be a sea view and you could see it if you look out to the right but not right out the window.
