This hotel was amazing! The staff were very nice and accommodating when we needed to check-in early and when we had issues with our hotel cards. The pool in the spa was really nice as well. It is a farther walk from the town center and the bed was really firm. Overall it was a great spot for our trip to Killarney!

The Brehon Hotel was a lovely place to stay. I wish we could have stayed another night. The rooms were superb - comfortable, well appointed, quiet and spacious. The bed and bedding were extremely comfortable and the bathrobe was plush and relaxing.
The staff at the check-in desk were fantastic - friendly, helpful, efficient. Parking was abundant and convenient.
We enjoy walking around town and this was ~20-25 minute walk from town, but was an easy walk for dinner. It was very close to a bike rental place so we rented bikes and rode all through Killarney National Park.
I would highly recommend the Brehon as a lovely place to start and/or finish your journey through Killarney and the Ring of Kerry.

Everything at The Brehon was excellent. The staff was very attentive and for the most part courteous. The staff in the bar/restaurant wasn't as customer focused and were either new or need training.

Very nice hotel, unfortunately the lady at the check-in desk was on the phone and had me wait 10 minutes before acknowledging me.
The room was very nice but the water wasn’t draining in the bath tub.
