I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The location is perfect, very close to the center of Killarney and within easy reach of all the major attractions. The rooms were spacious and the staff was extremely accommodating. However, the dining options left something to be desired, and the facilities could use some improvement.

I couldn't have asked for a better location during my stay. The hotel was right in front of the national park, offering a quiet atmosphere while still being so close to the town center. The spacious rooms with large bathrooms were a real treat, but the dining experience could have been improved. Despite that, the friendly service and overall value for money made my stay enjoyable.
