We had a lovely stay in Fota, the staff were amazing and the food was amazing. The hotel itself is nice hotel but the spa is a bit underwhelming. My wife had a treatment and rated the treatment as excellent so that part is impressive it the spa facility itself that needs some work.

Hotel is set in stunning grounds … but you need to venture beyond the hotel to find them. Golf Clubhouse setting is stunning, lots of great forest paths for walking or running. Hotel itself is ok, very worn in places, bedrooms currently being refurbished. It’s a real flaff to use pool .. having to book in advance. Room toiletries poor … tho Voya toiletries in spa. Staff are very attentive and helpful .. . reception, concierge and waiting staff. Felt more like 4* property than 5* … but the setting makes it.

Spa experience was good and the hydropool and facilities were very good. Went to the pool at 6.30pm on a Thursday and it was very busy. Restaurant, bar, breakfast and staff are all good. The bedroom was lovely unfortunately the aircon was useless and there was a high pitch noise outside the window. Between the heat and the noise, I couldn't sleep which took away greatly from an otherwise good stay.

One night stay, would have loved a longer visit. Every single member of staff that we met was professional, obliging and genuinely pleasant and in good form. That tells a lot about a hotel. We plan to return again.
