Staying at this hotel was a delightful experience. The rooms were nicely decorated and spacious, offering a bright atmosphere. The service was exceptional, with friendly and welcoming staff providing top-notch hospitality. The central location made exploring the town convenient, with easy access to shopping and entertainment areas. However, the dining options, particularly the breakfast starting time, could be improved. The facilities were great with modern amenities to ensure a comfortable stay.

The hotel had a lovely window that you could look out to the street, but unfortunately, there was a lot of noise in the roof space above, possibly from a stock room or plant room. The service was very friendly, with both check-in, check-out, and the bar staff being extremely helpful and courteous. The location was within an easy walking distance for dining and shopping, making it ideal to enjoy all that Killarney has to offer. The dining experience was truly the best we experienced on our trip, with outstanding fresh fruit, bread, and pastries plus a cooked-to-order menu. However, the noise from the roof space was a downside to an otherwise pleasant stay.

The location is ideal for exploring Killarney, though parking can be a bit tricky. The dining experience was terrific, especially the fresh fruit options.
