Robin Hill House B&B

Intricately decorated with the most perfect antique furniture and the dining room is well lit and simply perfect for so many occasions. Breakfast was excellent and selection was wonderful…our plates arrived piping hot and our little one felt like a princess being offered hot chocolate with mini marshmallows :) the rooms were beautiful and well lit. Loved arriving to a chocolate on my pillow and wished more places would do this. We fell in love with the two doggies who were wonderful hosts and extremely social…just perfect little ladies. We could not have asked for a more well placed bed and breakfast…definitely not our last visit.

Overall we had a great stay! The room was clean with a comfortable bed. Deirdre was lovely and ready to help with recommendations. There were also two sweet dogs who we loved meeting! The made to order breakfast was delicious!

For the price there were a couple of expected touches that would have made the stay better- the towels were like sandpaper and we had to ask to get hand soap since ours was almost empty when we checked in. Also, I feel like the made to order breakfast should be included instead of a supplementary price, as the continental breakfast included would not have been enough for us. We have stayed at four other hotels so far on this trip to Ireland, and they all included the made to order breakfast.

We were very late, close to 11pm and Deirdre stayed up to let us in, which was very much appreciated. The ferry was delayed and there was thick fog which slowed our driving. The room was very clean, and the beds were very comfy. The Shower was very powerful and hot. The breakfast was delicious, piping hot, freshly cooked and good quality produce used. Really tasty The experience was great, we wish we could have stayed longer. All the staff should be very proud. Kitty the dog was fabulous too.

The shower floor was a bit slippy and could have done with one of those rubber mats

The owner was lovely, very hospitable and engaging! The continental Breakfast was very nice and had a variety of items. The place is quaint and has a lovely garden.

The lighting in the room was bad for anyone who’s eyesight is not great (over 60). The positioning of the room and the one window in it did not shed much light in the daytime. However when we addressed this with the host she provided an extra standing lamp (although there wasn’t an awful lot of extra space unfortunately, so didn’t really help). However, I saw other rooms that did have bigger windows and much more light. So I would suggest requesting a more well lit room when you book, if necessary.

Robin Hill house is a beautiful home with lots of charm. Since the weather was cold outside, Dee had a magnificent fire in the family room making it cozy for our stay. The house must be insulation as we were not bothered by the sound of others walking up/down the stairs. Breakfast was made to order and cost a few more Euros, but well worth it!! Thank you Dee🍀 FOTA Wildlife preserve was close by with an abundance of animals, we spent several hours walking around, minimal sprinkles didn't bother the animal or us. The preserve is family oriented, as is most of Ireland, with playgrounds scattered around to keep the children active in between viewing the animals.

It was in an amazing location with easy access to all the main attractions in Cobh which made for a lovely walk. Getting to Cork was also easy, just a 20 minute drive. The staff were all super friendly and accommodating. They gave us tips on where to go eat, what kind of dishes we can order, and also were able to cater for gluten free guests as well.

I think the cooked breakfast could have been a bit nicer. Since the food was served on super hot plates that actually led to the eggs overcooking.

Dedrie was a jewel and Asad was very nice and professional. We had private rooms from our friends but there were two sitting rooms we could gather in, in the evening for a game or just a chat by the fireside. The beds were clean and comfortable as well. They offered breakfast daily but my picky eater didn't fancy anything on the menu. Honestly though, I'm betting if we asked, they'd have made french toast. So we ate just down the street at Ellen's. Cobh colorful history to explore and the house is conveniently situated. On going out one day, two of the rooms were empty and being cleaned, so we peaked in. One was a triple the other a double twin both were Beautiful!!! This charming historical house was a definite gem to find.

The only critique I can say is that our room had two steps up to get to the bathroom which was different but our friends room did not, I'm sure it was only ours.

This house is a re-purposed home from the past, something that we love., decorated with items from 100+ years ago, but everything works that needs to. Good bed. Breakfast was excellent; staff universally friendly. Lovely garden in the sunshine, it was a pleasant walk to "downtown" though we opted to taxi up the hill to get home again.

One floor of stairs to get to the room. We can still do this, but it would be a disqualified for someone needing a wheel chair.

The facility is very nice, staff was wonderful, the breakfast was good, and it was great to have a space heater in the room. We loved being greeted with a complimentary drink and having a fire is a real bonus.

The only slight issue was the smell of paint when we got into the room; it was very strong and unpleasant. However the staff gave us incense and candles to make the scent and help burn it off quickly, which was wonderful.

Everything exceeded our expectations. Deirdrie is the best host. She was so kind, hospitable and accommodating. Going out of her way to help us when we had car rental issues, making calls for us, and always making sure we were very well looked after. The food was delicious and so nice to have a spread with good variety included for our contental breakfast each morning. We chose a hot breakfast on our last stay and it was fantastic! Thank you Deirdrie for everything!

Nothing could have been better, really.
