Old, but the service was great!

We stayed in the apartments, not the hotel proper. It was old and dated, beat up. The hotel was nicer, but needs a facelift. Service and food were excellent though!

The apartment was very spacious for our family of 4. 2 bathrooms were nice! No swimming pool but had a relaxing communal hot tub in the spa area that you could use for up to 2 hours at an additional cost. The concierge was wonderful and very helpful!

Poor setvice at restaurant

We've felt a bit neglected in the restaurant outside area. There was a group of 100 inside. Food quality was not great, starters arrived with mains which meant eating cold food.
Althea, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent stay

Overall, very good. The location is great. South of Killarney, so if you want to be in the middle of pubs and restaurants and such, this may not be the place for you, but we loved that we could walk to Muckross Abbey, and that we were right by the lake and Torc Waterfall with short drives. They offered free bike rental, which I'd have loved if we had more time. The staff were very friendly. Both the person who checked us in, and the one who checked us out, were super-friendly, and were quick and to the point. The room itself was nice. It was a bit hot when we were there, so a fan would've been nice, but we just cranked the windows wide and that did the job. The two bedroom apartment was great, and relaxing.
