I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms provided great views over the town, but they lacked some essential amenities. The service was a bit of a letdown with staff being intrusive during breakfast, though the initial reception was lovely. The location was convenient, right in the center of town, but next to a noisy fun fair. The dining options were good, but there were some issues with the facilities.

The hotel offers a stunning view of the snow capped mountains from the balcony, even better than what the pictures on the site depict. However, the rooms could use a touch-up with the walls needing a lick of paint. The service, particularly during breakfast, left much to be desired with staff being rude and intrusive. On the bright side, the central location is convenient for exploring the town and enjoying the local attractions.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. On one hand, the rooms were spacious and had a lovely mountain view, but on the other hand, the service left much to be desired with staff constantly interrupting our meals. The location was ideal, right in the town center with easy access to all the pubs. The dining options were decent with a variety of selections. Overall, a stay with its ups and downs.

I had a very mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms offered beautiful views overlooking the mountains in the distance from the balcony, with a separate bath and shower, but they were not as advertised on the site. The service, from housekeeping to the manager, was quite frustrating and made me feel awkward during my stay. On a positive note, the location was right in the center of Killarney town, near everything, and super close to the train station. The dining experience was good with a variety of options, and the facilities met my needs for the most part.

The hotel is perfectly located in the heart of Killarney, just a minute's walk to the town center. The rooms offer a beautiful view of the nearby church, with a lovely balcony and a comfortable bed. The bathroom is spotlessly clean, but there were no fresh towels provided during my stay. The service, overall, was a mix of experiences, from the welcoming receptionist to the slightly inexperienced bar staff and cleaners. The location couldn't be better, being right in the center of town and within walking distance of all the main attractions. The dining options were satisfactory, with a variety of selections, including vegetarian and vegan dishes. The facilities were adequate, though nothing exceptional stood out.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms offered fabulous views but needed a touch-up with the walls, although they did come equipped with kitchen facilities. On the downside, the lamps were not satisfactory. The service was a letdown with constant interruptions during breakfast, making me feel uneasy and not willing to return. The location was excellent in the heart of Killarney but lacked finesse in service delivery. The dining experience had varied selections but fell short in some areas. Overall, the facilities were decent with some room for improvement.
