Jim and his family were incredibly lovely! During our visit to Killarney, my boyfriend and I stayed with them and received such warm welcomes. One morning, we had to leave very early for a hike, and although it was too early for breakfast, Jim thoughtfully left food out for us. Thank you, Jim and family, for such a wonderful experience in Killarney! Highly recommended :)

Jim was friendly and gave us very good advice re our excursions. Breakfast menu had several choices. Beds were comfortable. Lots of parking on the property. Convenient location to Ring of Kerry and Dingle Peninsula, as well as Killarney National Park. No one was there when we arrived during check-in hours, so we had to wait 15 minutes. The room and bathroom were very small and the shower was weak. WiFi had been upgraded and worked well.

The nicest thing about Gorman’s was Jim. Great host, served up really good breakfasts and tells you everything you need to know the area or even beyond your travel plans. He’s a real gem. Has a great sense of humor too. Otherwise, accommodations are average. Rooms are a bit small. There were two of us. Putting the twin beds together to make a king was a challenge. It was cramped to say the least.

After driving down from galway and spending the morning in killarney we went to the property to check in. We had booked to stay in a room with a double bed. We were shown to our room to discover two single beds pushed together with what looked like the grand canyon between them and told he had no more double beds despite no one else having checked into the property by this stage. He showed us around the room and dining room before asking to see our covid certs. Having not being fully vaccinated by that time he informed us we would not be allowed to stay and had this confirmed by his wife shouting through the bedroom door. Nowhere on the properties website did it state we had to be fully vaccinated to stay nor did we recieve a phone call or email informing us of this fact which would have been a courtesy. Having been the friday of the august bank holiday it left little option of finding alternative accommodation in killarney or indeed kenmare, tralee and dingle. With little option we decided to spend the weekend in limerick having left killarney extremely disappointed. I would wholeheartedly not recommended this property to anyone.

B&B condotto in modo amichevole da Jim, per 50 anni, che è un grande uomo ed eccellente parlatore. Per chi ama il contatto con le persone e chiude un occhio su alcuni aspetti della ricettività che oggi per molti contano di più. Le 4 stelle sono forse, oggi, 2019, un pochino troppe.
