The hotel is beautiful and clean. The staff is very friendly and go out of their way to help. They are as accommodating as possible. We got in very early from the US and we were exhausted, they allowed us to check in a little early and even comped our breakfast the first morning. The breakfast is included and is incredible! So many options and so delicious, I looked forward to it each morning. I missed it when I got back home. The hotel is near the center of town and it's just a short walk to all the restaurants and shops. We loved our stay and we would definitely stay here again.

Absolutely blown away! From the moment we stepped foot in GSK we were greeted and treated so kindly. We were told they upgraded our room and also added complementary breakfast to our two night stay. The room was immaculate and staff was always willing to help or guide us on our stay. Thank you for making our first visit to Killarney so special Great Southern Killarney! We will be back!

Awesome!

10/10

I stayed here with my wife and toddler while the hotel was undergoing a renovation. Not only did we not notice the renovation - it was one of the nicest stays of our entire trip. The room was spacious, giving us plenty of space to spread out. There were even some extra things I didn't expect, for example a toddler sized rocking chair in our room, and a putting green. The hotel staff was attentive, accommodating, and extremely friendly. The hotel was clean, quiet, in a great location. I would love to stay here again someday!

The Great Southern Killarney is an absolutely BEAUTIFUL property! The staff is OUTSTANDING ~ so friendly, so helpful, and very polite. They go above & beyond their "job descriptions" if that makes sense. LOL!

8/10

Beautiful hotel but check in was bit bumpy. Arrived late but no staff to assist with bags and real confusion on valet options for car. Staff was friendly enough but did not seem to understand the process. Just a tick off our experiences at other fine Irish hotels. Just needs to button up their procedures a bit!
2-night trip

10/10

The hotel is beautiful! All of the front desk staff and most of the restaurant staff are service oriented. The bellman directed to us to a ramp so we could bring our own suitcases up. Once inside, the hotel had bellman take our luggage to the room, once it was ready. It's easy walking distance to town, even for an older person like myself. It's refreshing to have a large parking lot in which to park adjacent to the hotel. The breakfast was very nice, but I would have liked an omelet option. Dinner was delicious. Overall, we were vey happy to have stayed there in such a beautiful hotel.

6/10

After the initial mix up with the room, and a prompt for a cup of tea while we waited for them to ready a ready. The room was adequate, twin beds pushed together - obvious by their fixed to wall headboards. The pool was overrun with children, jumping in and throwing a mini rugby ball at pace across the pool. Fireworks for a wedding that night were and added bonus and the hotel had thought ahead to pre-warn and invite viewing. Not a 4 star hotel but adequate.

It was a fabulous hotel, staff were amazing 👏, at breakfast we waited 40 minutes familys that came in after us were all served and had eaten and left before we got ours.
