I had a pleasant experience at the hotel with a warm welcome and comfortable, clean rooms.

I had a nice stay at the hotel, enjoying the spacious and clean rooms and lovely facilities like the swimming pool and sauna. However, the noise from the neighboring room was quite disruptive during the night. The parking situation could also be tricky for those not aware of its location. Overall, I'd return but would choose a quieter room next time.

I had a wonderful experience during my stay at this hotel, where I was greeted with such warmth and hospitality. The rooms were spacious and well-kept, providing a cozy retreat. While dining was generally fantastic, I did encounter a small hiccup with service in the bar. The location is unbeatable, right in the heart of Killarney. A couple of organizational aspects, like the car park and luggage handling, could use some improvement, but overall, I would definitely recommend this hotel.
