The K Kinsale, hotel in Kinsale

Located in the sea side town of Kinsale, The K Kinsale offers elegant accommodation with limited free onsite parking. The property is just 5 minutes' walk from local restaurants and shops.

Melissa and James are very welcoming and helpful. They replied quickly and nicely to our messages before our stay. They know the place very well , so if it's your first time here, they can advise you well. Location perfect: very close from the centre (shops, restaurants, pubs),and, at the same time, a little bit farther so quiet for sleeping. Very nice lounge. Our bedroom was very nice and clean, the matress was big and comfortable. We and our guests had a lovely stay here.

    Phil is a lovely host. My room was spotless and the breakfast was lovely. There was unlimited top ups if you wanted more of anything I was getting there and leaving at odd times so Phil kept my luggage to help me out. Only points to be prepared for is the B&B only take cash, and if you don’t have a car it’s a very steep incline to the property. Would definitely recommend
