Had a very experience here recently. Been working jn tbd industry for decades, was v impressed with the easy going professional manner of the staff. We had a fairly large family gathering - private dinner...everything was great. Can only thoroughly reccomend the Celtic Cross Hotel.

Stayed there in July for a 4 nights. Great hotel. Breakfast were unreal, couldn't fault the rooms or staff. Pool was a good size. Girls at the kids club were great too. Didn't eat out the restaurant as we were always on the go. Would definitely stay again.

Great hotel with such a lovely, relaxed atmosphere and an amazing view. We loved the bunk bed in our room—it was a fun touch! We also took a walk up the hill to the square behind the hotel—what a magical place. The food was absolutely incredible, only topped by the amazingly attentive service. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Come here for food and drinks all the time! Lovely fresh and local food. Great pints too! Service is always friendly. Beautiful view from the outdoor seating. I love the truffle parm chips and the union hall smoked salmon, but the chicken burger is one of the best I’ve ever had.!!!

First time stopping in Rosscarbery, lovely hotel, friendly helpful staff. Spotless room, had a great sleep. Breakfast was delicious, husband used the leisure centre for an hour while I relaxed with a book in the library, bliss. We had a carvery Sunday lunch before we left, it was really gorgeous. Highly recommend. Little village 2 minute walk away, lovely pubs and a fab takeaway.
