Whether you are looking for drinks or dining, mountain or ocean views or spectacular sunsets; The President Hotel in Bantry Bay is the place to be. Soak up the sunshine, breathe in the sea air and enjoy memorable experiences with friends or family at one of our many restaurants and bars.

The Islands Restaurant serves a bountiful breakfast buffet daily, featuring locally sourced and fresh ingredients – a commitment to sustainability evident in every bite. As the sun sets, the space becomes an elegant candle-lit dining experience with an impressive a la carte menu and wine pairing.

The Senate and Deck Bar, with their signature cocktails and impressive wine and tapas menu is popular amongst locals who frequent for the vibey atmosphere and live sports screenings, and of course, the spectacular sunsets over the Atlantic Ocean.

For a casual bite, The Base has a selection of gourmet woodfired pizzas and delicious pasta, while the newly refurbished Botany Café is famed for its fresh and healthy deli offering, best enjoyed as grab-and-go or sit down, featuring Bootlegger coffee, freshly squeezed juice, smoothies, pastries, cake and more.

    This was a special venue to commemorate a very special occasion. Choosing the President hotel has not only elevated the memory I will cherish but it also created such a warm environment to host my beloved community. The staff was outstanding and the service before the event itself was top tier, thank you Taryn and the whole PH team for a night to remember.

    Food was very disappointing and the ladies who welcomed us at the restaurant seemed to look down on us. I would not recommend a family or friends to go for dinner, it killed my daughters special day, Spur food would have give done a better job, however the 2 gentle who assisted us tried really hard to make us feel welcome and comfortable , overall was disappointed

    Everything was perfect and staff is always friendly and willing to go an extra mile. We came with kids n with excitement they went to the pool with clothes n they were wet but without asking they took the clothes to the dryer. It was our mom’s 80th birthday and they came to sing for her and we were all surprised coz we ddnt ask for them to sing as well and make the day extra special.
