It’s alright

Staff was nice and helpful, the hotel was perfect for a one night stay, it needs some updating maybe. It was clean, but it needed more attention to detailed cleaning (corners, light switches, bottom of walls etc.)

This hotel was like an oasis of calm and comfort. It offered a suitable and knowledgeable starting point to exploring the Killarney lakes on foot or shopping in town. Breakfast was in a very pleasant room and provided a healthy start to each day. Staff were extremely honest and phoned when we left valuables in room.

The Parkavon is fine, although not special. It was mostly very clean (although there were hairs in my sink when I arrived), and my room under the eaves was pleasant. It has a slightly tired look -- the carpets are particularly threadbare -- and it is quite far out of town (a 15 minute walk). But the price was good, and the staff was generally helpful.

A pleasant stay at the Parkavon Hotel for myself, my wife and two children. Hotel staff were polite and friendly, large car park for us to be able to park our hire car every evening. We didn’t opt for breakfast as there is a Tesco, M&S and Lidl all within a mile distance, so were able to pick up fresh pastries from there every morning. We did have dinner one night at the hotel and it was very nice. It’s centrally located, all amenities within a short distance. It’s a perfect stop off destination if you want to do the Ring of Kerry which we did. Price was reasonable considering other options. I’m very happy with our stay at this hotel. We stayed in one of the cheaper smaller double rooms, which was perfectly adequate.

Never again.

I arrived a few hours after the allowed check in time and my room they gave me was not cleaned. Hair in shower on floor of tub and walls. Also what looked like finger or toenail clippings. I went to use the toilet and it was stained with poop. I asked for another room that was clean. They said we will give you a renovated room that are only located in the 3rd floor. Then the offered me free breakfast for the morning and told me to book a time with them. I told them 8am. When I arrived the next morning the staff had no idea what I was talking about and said I had to pay. I had to go back and forth with them until they finally said they found the note. I finally ate at 10am. It was only two days and one night and honestly that’s all I could take. Also my room looked out to the side of thier building which had long untrimmed grass and what looked liked an old broken down child’s toy car and bench.
