Easily the best place we stayed in all of Ireland. Beautiful, clean, fancy. Located right next to Killarney National Park. The staff were so kind, offering to help any way they could. Carried our bags, gave us tips, helped us rent the free bicycles. Two restaurants and a lounge on site. Live music at the pub was awesome. Breakfast is great. The spa was a nice touch. Would definitely stay again and recommend.
Best hotel that I’ve stayed at in Ireland. I was a little apprehensive since it comes off as not a modern hotel but I was wrong. It’s extremely well kept and clean. Would recommend to this to anyone who is looking to stay in Kilarney. Location is great for the National Park as well. A quick drive to the center where all the pubs are.
Absolutely lovely stay at Muckross Hotel. Great location outside of busy Killarney. Right at the trailhead for many beautiful walks; staff were lovely, room big and elegant; very comfortable bed and wonderful spa with big jet pool, steam, sauna, outside hot tub. Highly recommend!
Perfect location near to the national park. Wonderful experience. They really do everything in their power to help you and make your stay unforgettable.
Really wish I'd booked at least 2 nights here at this beautiful property in this beautiful location! I was visiting from USA w/ my wife and we had great time. I took a little carriage ride across the street through the park, saw the Muckross house, saw some old buildings, had some great strolls, and had fun at the spa as well. Amazing service and beautiful clean rooms! Thanks for the hospitality.
