Reviews of Actons Hotel Kinsale
Ted Stout
We absolutely loved our stay at the Acton Hotel in Kinsale! My wife and I visited Kinsale back in 2019 but didn’t stay overnight, so when we planned our March 2025 trip to Ireland, we knew we wanted to spend a couple of days truly enjoying this charming town—and Acton Hotel was the perfect choice. The location is ideal—just a short walk from the lively downtown area, yet peaceful enough to relax...

Location wise great spot, Kinsale is relatively small so no matter where you are in the town you are within walking distance of everything.

Breakfast was OK, would have preferred self service to include the g...

Spent 2 nights. Rooms were emaculate and roomy. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Onsite restaurant had great food and reasonably priced. Small quaint seaside town with great views, small shops and local eats. Highly recommend. Will be back!

We really loved our stay at Actons, as part of an organised tour. The rooms were absolutely beautiful, well equipped, very comfortable, and sparkling clean. Breakfast was delicious with a good range of options - we tried the Irish cold meats and cheeses platter, the porrridge and the French toast. Staff were great, very friendly and welcoming. Great location for exploring pretty Kinsale.
