Seaview House Hotel

A lovely country house experience, great facilities, lovely service and excellent food

We, while driving from Bantry to Glengarrif, dropped into the Seaview House Hotel for coffee. The coffee came with home made Irish shortbread, which was excellent, as was the service and the hotel. We only wish that we had the time to spend staying in this Hotel as this is a little bit of heaven in a crazy world.

A rare fine that’s delux & pet friendly. I booked a suite which was of high standard & rooms are very clean. Check in staff a lovely Welsh girl & friendly. The ladies at breakfast couldn’t do enough. The breakfast menu had a great selection of hot options & the fresh fruit especially the rhubarb was amazing. Overall staff were so welcoming & professional to me & little Gypsy 🐶

We recently enjoyed a surprise party for my husband in Sea View. From the first phone call , Ronan and his staff were so helpful and friendly. Nothing was a bother to them. Such a fabulous setting. Beautiful gardens, spacious and spotless en suite bedrooms. Delicious food and fabulous menu for both dinner and breakfast. Everything was so fresh and beautifully presented . An extensive GF menu also . Fourth generation of my family have now stayed there so can highly recommend .

Beautiful old manor. Great furniture & fixtures. Prices for accommodation and any extras are very competitive. Fabulous reception & bar staff. Lovely intimate bar unlike most hotels. Good filtered decaf coffee. The metal flask-type decanter kept it piping hot. We were given a bedroom at the front of the house with lovely views. Winter duvet on the bed. We asked for a top sheet instead. We slept well. I heard other guests complaining that they couldn't get to sleep because they were too hot. Very good shower. Basin tap heads could be swapped for ones with little levers that would be easier to turn. A split bin for recycling would be great. Fabulous breakfast buffet selection, better than any 5 star hotel & well-thought-out menu. Begins at 7:30 which is great. One attentive breakfast waiting staff at the dining room doorway would be better than two young inexperienced girls sitting and chatting in the far corner of the buffet room. The more experienced waiting staff the second morning were very good. The marmalade is too sweet & sugary. The jam was fine. Rashers were good. The sausages & puddings were only ok. Mushrooms weren't with the full Irish so we asked for them the second morning. They were lovely as were the poached eggs. We will be back.

Excellent customer service! Delicious cake and shortbread. Very welcoming place and ran by very nice people. Lovely period piece house with vintage decor.
