The staff were friendly and helpful. There were nice touches. For example, if you ask that the room not be cleaned they thank you with a complimentary drink card (wine/beer/coffee). It was unexpected but a nice touch. The grounds are beautiful. It was our favorite hotel during our trip.

This hotel is absolutely stunning! The staff was so friendly and welcoming and made us feel so special. We had dinner at Monks and it was so delicious! We were able to walk to Muckross which was super convenient and the scenery around the hotel was wonderful. We will absolutely stay here again!

Kala, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Beautiful property and surrounding area, which we explored via bikes from the hotel. You need to book a time for the pool/sauna/jacuzzi area ahead of your arrival. Lovely breakfast and dining available on site was pricey but excellent. We had to pay for a taxi from the bus station to the hotel, but the concierge helped us arrange it.
Bonita, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This was the perfect break from the city. From start to finish everything was perfect. Highly recommend if you want a relaxing stay close enough to the city center but far enough to be a relaxing retreat.

10/10 Exceptional

This hotel is just across the road to the park. Amazing location and they provide the bikes so you can set right out. Room was large and clean but a bit warm even though we lowered the thermostat as much as it would go. Maybe a lighter blanket would have been enough. All in all a great experience. Breakfast was the best! Would stay here again.

Vacation in Killarney

From start to finish this place was first rate from a time you checked into the time you left it was impeccable. The food was great. The service was outstanding everywhere you went. People were helpful. I actually forgot a bag in the room. She called me an hour after I left and asked me if I wanted to come back and get it or if she wanted me to ship it to my house he just don’t see Service like this very often I would stay there in a heartbeat.

Exceptional staff and management

My husband and I had medical emergencies while we stayed at the hotel that were handled with gracefulness and professionalism by all staff and management. They went beyond what was expected even from a 5 star rated hotel. Their commitment to client service is exceptional. They ensured to understand our needs and even anticipated those that we had not thought of. They provided extra services while reassuring us that they would be there if additional needs came up. Everybody from the cleaning staff to management were very helpful, special praises to Nile, managers Sean and Chris in addition to deputy general manager Breda.
Anne-Marie, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

When we were checking in to the Muckross Hotel, the Brochure for the Muckross stated that if you rent one of their suites you would receive a complimentary bottle of wine. I had purchased a suite thru Expedia. When I ask about our complimentary bottle of wine , I was informed that since I purchased the suite thru Expedia I was not entitled to the complimentary bottle. I thought that was in poor taste of the Hotel. I room was lovely but dated. However, we had the best Duck at the restaurant ever..

Okay stay for 5 Star Hotel

My husband and I got a dinner voucher for 2 for the Yew Restaurant so we decided to treat ourselves to an overnight stay for our anniversary. Unfortunately when I booked I didn't know that restauarant is closed on Sunday nights so we had to make do with the bar restaurant called Colgans. We were disappointed but at least Colgans honoured the voucher. The hotel is 5 star and this is fully evident from when you enter the hotel. Unfortunately, amidst all the attentiveness they managed to mix up our rooms, we were given the wrong room (this room had a veranda with an ashtray full of cigarette butts on a table), they lost our luggage and we were waiting around 90mins before been shown the correct room. Eventually after resolving the issue they did apologise and gave us a complimentary bottle of prosecco but it did leave us somewhat out of sorts. I do have to say the Spa with the Vitality Suite is absolutely beautiful and you do feel very relaxed and spoilt after it. Our bedroom was lovely and clean as was the bathroom. They offered Rituals products which are gorgeous. The only downside in the bathroom is the lack of counter space for toiletry bags etc. Colgans was okay, we were seated in a high table with high stools which didn't make for a relaxing meal. The atmosphere was dead in the bar and hotel lobby albeit it was a Sunday night. The breakfast was lovely and the hotel is perfectly situated beside the national park with Muckross House, Torc, Dinis Cottage all walkable.
