The Old Medical Hall

Central Location: Most reviews highlight the hotel’s proximity to Castletownbere’s piers, restaurants, ferry, and bus stops, with easy access to nearby attractions like Bere Island.

Very unique b and b in an old pharmacy. That said the bathroom was large and modern. You have to climb some steep stairs, but it is an old building and comes with the experience. We had a slight problem with the door lock but there is a bakery on the ground floor and a woman came over and showed us the trick. The lock was original to the building, so it worked in a opposite handle direction to modern locks so once she showed us how it worked no further issues. The breakfast in the morning was the best breakfast we had in Ireland in 5 weeks, perfect. Perhaps to be expected with a bakery in the b and b. It was also the only truly good coffee we had during the trip. Parking is across the street, we had no issues, and no charges. Easy walk to the piers, perfectly situated location. We had dinner in Breen's Lobster Bar and it was terrific.
