Originally the site of a Royal Naval Dockyard in the 18th Century, Trident Hotel Kinsale was built in the 1960s. in 1986 it was purchased by the Good family from Kinsale and recently underwent a complete refurbishment. The Trident Hotel now provides 75 beautifully modern guestrooms including an executive wing comprising 30 rooms and penthouse floor of 11 luxury suites. Best of all every room provides breath- taking views of Kinsale Harbour. I joined in January 2016 whilst continuing to work in our sister property Actons Hotel.
