Our stay at the Bay View was truly memorable, marked by a welcoming atmosphere and stunning views. The food quality and the comfort of our room stood out, making our experience even more enjoyable. However, we did encounter a slight noise issue during the night, which detracted from the serene environment. Overall, it's a wonderful spot that's well worth the visit.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel, which is in a convenient location just a short walk from the beach. The room was charming, albeit a little dated, and I appreciated the sea view. The food served at the hotel was fantastic, especially breakfast, but the service could have been more attentive, as I encountered some delays with special requests. Overall, it was a delightful experience in a scenic area, but a few small details could improve the stay.

I had a fantastic overnight stay with stunning views of the bay and really enjoyed my full Irish breakfast. The staff went above and beyond to assist me when I needed help with transportation. On the downside, my room was smaller than expected and the noise from the bar made it difficult to sleep at night.

I had a fantastic time at Bay View Hotel in Kilkee! The food was simply superb, both for dinner and breakfast, and I appreciated the spaciousness of our room, which had two double beds. The only downside was that I had initially hoped for a sea view but ended up with a room facing the pub yard, which was a little disappointing. Overall, though, the ambiance and attention to detail made it a memorable stay.
