Stayed 2 nights with friends. Reception staff friendly & welcoming. This place could do with a lick of paint. Bathroom adequate - nice & clean. Initially I was cursing as I thought there was no hot water but turns out the hot tap was cold and the cold tap was hot (took me half a bath of cold water to... more

I think the good reviews on this page are very deceiving; otherwise as a family of 5 we may have been relegated to the worst room in the hotel. I booked the hotel on the phone after spotting it on bookings.com and the woman I spoke to was very friendly and helpful. In fairness, we were given a reasonable rate... more

We found this hotel very good, had read a few of the reviews and did put us of slightly. We found this hotel warm, friendly, clean and modern. Having safe parking and its own bars and food was great. Nice relaxed atmosphere. more

I booked this hotel via lastminute.com. We had had a long day, involving two flights and drove from Cork arriving at about 10pm. The welcome was warm and the room was very comfortable and absolutely spotless. The hotel was quiet and we were unaware of other guests although at breakfast the next day, there were clearly lots of people staying... more

We had an enjoyable stay for 3 nights here. We reached Killarney by bus from limerick. There were no taxi stands outside the bus station and its quite a walk till the hotel that too with a toddler. We called up the hotel asking for directions and one of the staff was kind enough to come and collect us from... more

Stayed for 2nights. The Place was a nice cosy one. The interior and exteriors gives a feel of country house. The staff were very co-operative too. The place is about 5-10 minutes drive from Killarney Town. We had taken taxi (costing 10 euros one way) for access to town. The hotel arranges Ring of Kerry tour with pick up and... more

Booked a room at Darby O'Gill's last minute online and it was great value for money. EUR 69 for a double room including breakfast for two people. Rooms are fresh, big and clean. Bar is cozy and lively. Five minutes by car from downtown Killarney but too far to walk. more

Really enjoyed this B&B. Stayed here in Aug with family during trip around South Ireland and this was a great find. Staff were excellent to deal with. Food could be better but overall I was a good experience more
