My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were a bit old but had great facilities and comfy beds, although they were not well insulated, and I could hear the TV next door very clearly as if I were in the same room. The service was excellent with a friendly and helpful staff, but there was a slight issue with one snotty staff member. The location was perfect for exploring the area, with a friendly and accommodating staff, but there was a minor inconvenience with limited onsite parking. The dining experience had a nice selection of food but was a bit pricey on the second day. The facilities were top-notch and enjoyable, making my overall stay quite pleasant.

The hotel is conveniently located on New Street in Killarney, close to all amenities. The rooms, although a bit tired, were clean overall, but mine had not been properly hoovered which made my experience uncomfortable as I found sequins and even a sharp object on the floor. The hotel refused to move us to a different room despite the inconvenience.

The hotel was at the very back of the hotel, which made it a bit noisy at times due to the garbage pickup, but the service was exceptional with hardworking and friendly staff. The location couldn't be more central with clean and comfortable surroundings, although parking was a bit of an issue.
