Fota Island Hotel reviews

We had a great stay in the Fota for a week. It was a great base to explore East Cork and Cork City. The rooms and staff were excellent. At busy times e.g. in the bar (for food) evenings the staff did seem under pressure and there were delays. This was rare though and food and service was generally excellent. I did e-mail the sheratonfotaislandhotelspa.292482@venere.com in order to get details of what was in the price before hand but got no reply. This caused some embarrassment for us as breakfast wasnt included. The clientele the hotel appeals to seems to be all sorts - Golfers, spa users, families and couples like myself and my wife who wanted a pleasant base for the week. The hotel seems to be very well laid out for families and children but this didn't impact on our stay. Neither did the weddings which were taking place over our stay too.

We recently attended a wedding with about 250 people; the food and service at the meal and beforehand were top-class. Sign of a very good hotel to be able to cater well for this number of guests.
