This was one of the nicest hotels I’ve stayed in. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The room was spacious with a nice patio. The bathroom was beautiful, clean, updated, and instant hot water in the shower. They refreshed the bathroom supplies daily. The morning breakfast had a lot of choices and was delicious. It was convenient to have a nice breakfast before heading out for your day. The location was wonderful. The hotel had a lot of nice areas to sit in, lounge and relax. It had a restaurant at night as well as a bar area that offered food. I had dinner one night in the bar and it was excellent. I had room service one time and that was great. I highly recommend this hotel.

Fabulous, relaxing hotel. As soon as you turn off the busy Killarney road and go down a long tree-lined driveway and see the pastoral views, you feel refreshed. Great location and ambiance!

What's not to like about a long tree-lined drive leading to a beautiful Manor house surrounded by green grounds and pastures, with seating. High ceilings with rich wood, beautiful wall paper and draperies will transport you...but the facilities are first rate, very clean and lovingly cared for. The bar and restaurant are very good. The staff is very helpful (thank you Nichole!) and welcoming. It is also very close to town and the National Park. Perfect!

Incredible!! What an amazing stay. Such a beautiful hotel and grounds, the free bike rentals are amazing for exploring the National Park and town. All the dining and drink options at the hotel were great, especially the breakfast. The staff was AMAZING! They helped look into and book activities for us and were just generally so pleasant. Everyone is so kind. Will definitely be coming back next time we’re in Killarney.

My wife and I stayed at the Cahernane House Hotel for 3 nights. It was glorious!! The location is private and yet convenient. The staff (especially the young lady at the front desk) were gracious and very helpful. The breakfast room was relaxing and the food excellent. Our room #17 was spacious and relaxing but got a bit hot (the windows were very small). All in all ... we thoroughly enjoyed our time at this wonderful hotel.
