Munster Arms Bandon 19 May 2022

Stayed one night at the Munster Arms Hotel to be close to a business appointment the next day. I arrived quite late at 8pm and as I checked in was asked if I’d like to order food, which I did - food was good quality and big portions. Staff were very attentive. My bedroom was spacious, the bed very comfy - there was no outside noise and very quiet. Breakfast menu is varied and again delicious. The owners served breakfast and were attentive, nothing too much trouble. Overall the hotel was a good place to stay, although some of the hallways were abit tired and room numbering a bit strange eg 211 was next to 220 there were no big issues. It was nice to be supporting local owners rather than corporates and I would stay here again.

A pleasant stay in Bandon

Stayed in this hotel recently for two nights. However, Covid protocols were sadly lacking and we did not feel safe. We would have left but had no alternative accommodation on this occasion.
First of all, at the check in desk, there was signage stating that all guests were required to show their covid certificates but we were not asked for them? At the entrance to the dining and bar areas there was a sanitizing station and a book to sign in when entering. However, there was no supervision of this requirement and people just passed it by in most cases. Furthermore, customers were allowed to walk around the area without wearing facemasks.
On the positive side, the room was comfortable and reasonably clean ( I noticed that the carpet between the bedside locker and the bed had not been cleaned for some time as I saw two used nasal sprays on the floor).
The rest of the room and the bathroom were spotless.
The hotel staff were fantastic and could not have been more friendly and helpful and the food ( breakfast) was excellent.
We left the hotel early each morning, returning only at night and left the room windows open throughout the day.
This 3 star hotel has the potential for excellence however Management need to take their responsibilities much more seriously and protection of their guests from C19 infection must be their number one priority.
We will not stay there again while the pandemic lasts!

Nice hotel but management oversight and supervision lacking!

It is surprising to me that the Munster Arms Hotel is slipping with the implementation of the infection control for Covid-19. I have called there regularly for lunch  down through the years. Good food at reasonable prices always, and in covid times, covid controls were always in place. Unfortunately, this was not the case when I called on my last visit. Nobody asked if I had my Digital COVID Certificate, and as I watched other customers coming for lunch they were not asked to present them either. When I mentioned this fact to one of the staff it seemed that they had two types of customer; 1. Vigilantes or 2. Agressive Covid skeptics, and as a result I conclude that the staff have given up implementing government requirements, perhaps from fear of losing regular customers? To make matters worse one person was smoking an e-cigarette in the dining area, and they didn't bother stopping when they were told by a laughing member of staff  that someone had complained..... I am sad to say that I wont be returning any day soon.

A potentially unsafe location on the day we called.

Visiting Cork to see family and friends after a long absence, courtesy of the pandemic! Met up with my partner’s mother and aunt for a spot of lunch at The Munster Arms in Bandon. We were all bowled over with the fabulously delicious food. One of the best ‘bacon & cabbage’ meals I have ever had. Really generous portions and the food, for everyone in my group, was quite positively sublime. All of this was made more special by the lovely and very hard working serving staff. Special mention must be made to our waitress, Lucy; she was an absolute star - friendly, efficient, professional and engaging, all in equal measure. Whilst there are a number of eateries in Bandon, which we are ready to explore or reacquaint ourselves with, given the hugely positive experience at The Munster Arms, we will most definitely be dining here again during our two week holiday in West Cork.

A pleasant afternoon with family.

Stopped off in The Munster Arms for some food on return from a trip around the area.  We had a great steak  served as requested.   We ate in the bar,   service was good  and atmosphere was enjoyable.  It was a quiet evening in the town, but enjoyable none the less.

Great Steak !

Stayed here overnight 12th Oct.
The room was clean but as it was a Saturday night there was a considerable amount of noise on the street from revellers attending a disco in the hotel. This went on until app 3am. 
One female never shut up from screaming and this should have been sorted by the hotel security staff in the interest of their residents.
The window handle was broken and couldn’t be closed properly. 
The hotel needs quite a bit of updating. 
Breakfast was very good. 
Off street parking.
For the price, I’d look elsewhere. 


Needs updating.

I've stayed here on a few occasions & I will be happy to stay again on my next visit to Bandon. The accommodation is adequate but not by any means ostentatious. There is no lift but my room was on the first floor so I just had one set of stairs to navigate. I was checked in by a very pleasant receptionist & my ensuite room seemed to have been recently renovated. The shower worked very well & there was a good supply of towels & other materials. The breakfast is partly self service but a cooked breakfast is available & fish is available. There is also secure parking available about 30 meters from the hotel front door. I would stay again if visiting the town of Bandon.

Adequate accommodation 

We stayed with our 3 year old for 2 nights. Both of which we never slept as our room faced the pub outside,  both windows did not close so we had to listen to the traffic and pub leavers and last night till 4:30 am people in the street making noise and a dog barking because of them! Our room also has a terrible smell coming from the toilet drain and the bathroom was far from clean! Would not stay here again! 

Terrible noise level outside for families! 

On the 15th of Aug, my family and I went to the Munster Arms Hotel in Bandon Co. Cork. 

We decided to have lunch there. Unfortunately the menu wasn’t great so we decided to have a toasted special sandwich x3 and one kids meal. 

My wife spotted that the young lady that was making the sandwiches wasn’t wearing gloves and said it the staff at the pay counter. To our amazement this kicked off a major fight between the lady who we spoke to and the young lady who was making the food. Then the male chef got involved. There was fighting and arguing. There were tears and strong words between them all. Later we found out that the male chef was the father of the young lady. In fact he should have thought his daughter better than that.  

My whole experience was nothing short of disgusting. I’d highly HIGHLY recommend staying well away.
