Everything so well written thought out. Beautiful building and grounds. Horses out front. Gorgeous grounds
2.5 / 5.0
Great proper Irish 5 star hotel. Loved the way the property brings the landscape indoors by using huge windows framed in black. Not many hotels in Ireland embrace the landscape in this way. Only drawback is there is really only 1 choice for evening meal. The bar needs to offer better menu a la sister hotel The Europe.

Far enough outside Killarney for some quiet. But an easy drive in to town. Very nice grounds for walking and hotel activities. Horses are beautiful. Rims are set up well. You can tell staff takes pride in their work. Amazing dining room where the views are a great part of meals.

It wasn’t just a place to stay it was an experience. It was everything a 5 star hotel should be and more - but there was also an intangible atmosphere of warmth and welcome that made our stay there so memorable

The staff were great.they really were. Arranged kayaking and massages at the hotel for us.
Was in a rush for time and ordered the full irish but didnt come to table so had to skip it. They did send it after i went looking but wasnt a great start to the day. Rooms are very clean and very quiet with thick solid windows. Always a plus for me!
Not great signage to know where things are but staff help on this.seems like a great place to bring smaller kids .as lots to do on site for them. Only one shower after the pool and no special needs changing areas which wasnt ideal.
Overall excellent hotel and amazing staff.worth the stay.
Lovely view of the gap of dunloe. Also the view from restaurant is really relaxing while eating.

Lovely stay in family room. Beautiful view from terrace. Only complaint was that the bedside alarm clock went off at 5:52am!! Couldn’t go back to sleep after. We didn’t set it so was annoying.
Pool was great. Also played tennis.
Fabulous breakfast.
Don’t order kids pizza - was awful. Looked shop bought.

Stay was nice, concurrent wedding reception led to some confusion but was cleared up. Did notice that extras (bar tab) incorrectly added to bill, but this too was corrected when brought up with staff.

Our stay was exceptional, from check in ,service and atmosphere we loved it. The food cocktails and prosecco was 1st class . The kids club , swimming pool and pony riding really impressed the kids . We really didn't want to leave . I would go back in a heat beat. Marie was so professional nothing was untainable. We can't wait to return

Besides the view of Dunloe - unbelievably disappointing. Poor standard room that had dead flies in the window inside, bird dirt all over the balcony, chipped indoor window sill that badly needed a lick of paint. A general feeling of discomfort with the room - it is not at all on par with price. Breakfast, lunch and dinner all fine but nothing too memorable. More than willing to take account of the pandemic and that it takes time to get back into the swing of it after such a difficult period but tor the money it just didn’t cut it. This is not a 5 star hotel. Not even a 4 in my opinion.

Beautiful location and hotel, lots of facilities and lovely decor and ambience. Since opening, staff service in restaurant detracted from our stay, not experienced, and lots of errors. Food when arrived was excellent, just not at the right time for all guests, and too much back and forth. Bedroom was ok, but chair was stained, and devan valance, expected a more for 5 star experience. Management responded but didn't sufficiently manage wait staff to ensure the full experience. I'm sure will improve over time, shame though, as we have been regular visitors for many years.

Our daughter was upset at leaving. She had such an amazing time with Emma in the Kids club. The cleaners where great, normal clean room but siting the teddies up in the morning and putting them in the bed at turn down was a nice touch. We enjoyed horse ridding with Bob and the team. Food was good. Breakfast, lunch and dinner was to the standard you expect. Check in, out was fast and personal. Location was perfect. Swimming pool, playground, kids room all good.

I would not recommend it to couples or individuals looking for a quiet relaxing break. The pool was full of children. Also, we were woken a number of times by a loud group in the floor beneath us partying. So overall it was disappointing, we probably wont be back.

There is no denying that the hotel facilities are fantastic. However service was not as expected... our room was not ready until 4:30 pm, there was no bottled water in our room and finally a stranger accessed our room at 9am in the morning using his room access key..... lovely hotel but just not the expected five star experience unfortunately....

Pool changing areas and toilet was dirty. Some staff were very ott and quiet annoying. Especially at breakfast, a worker would not leave us alone because we had a new baby she literally sat with us it was very annoying.

I normally don’t wrote reviews but I just had to write one for this stay. My wife, son and I were so happy with our stay here. Every part of the experience was flawless. The check-in, the room, the restaurant and bar, the pool, playground for my son and everything else. We spent at least 2 hours walking around outside through their fairy trail and farm area petting horses and visiting the Dunloe castle that is on the property. Breakfast was great each morning and finally, they have complimentary horse back riding that my son loved! We would 100% stay there again and most likely will in the future!
