The whole experience was delightful. The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was beautiful and comfortable. Food was delicious. My only complaint was the small size of the shower. The spa is the perfect end to a day walking or cycling around the park.

Our stay at the Brehon was 10/10 - such a great venue to meet up with family. We had family members travel down from Cork to meet with us - the lobby has lots of sofas in front of beautiful fireplaces where we could gather. Then we had fabulous meals in the Bar restaurant.

I really enjoyed my four-night stay at the Brehon. The room was very clean, quiet, and spacious, with comfortable amenities. Plenty of outlets to charge my electronics and the bathroom was generously large. I had one minor glitch with the climate control. It was set to air-conditioning mode but the weather outside was unseasonably cool. I called the front desk and they quickly changed it remotely so that I could turn on the heat. I liked the complimentary Irish breakfast. Everyone I talked to on the staff was friendly and helpful. Parking was easy. I would definitely stay here again.

Our stay was a wonderful experience to celebrate a special wedding anniversary. The Heritage Suite was an indulgence, that we so enjoyed, including using the musical kettle. The breakfasts were superb with a huge choice of food. The whole stay was topped off by a daily visit to the Spa. The staff were so friendly & helpful. The only criticism was that the potatoes in the Irish stew we had one night in the Bar, were not cooked properly.

8/10 Very good

Breakfast is great with a good amount of buffet items and the option of made to order items. Timing could be earlier, especially for those who want to get an early start on exploring the ring of Kerry. Shower is a little cramped. Plenty of storage for items. Hair dryer was provided with attachments, as well as a hair straightener which is uncommon.
