Nice hotel but does not feel 5 star. Room size was small, bathroom small with toilet too close to wall and sink. Would not recommend for the price. Also massages were not available all weekend, super disappointed in our stay for our anniversary
Quiet location, the staff is very attentive, good food at the onsite pub and right across from the hotel is the Killarney National Park

We loved our stay here. The staff was super accommodating. After traveling for almost 2 weeks, we used the efficient laundry service. We ate breakfast, twice, as it was included in our stay. The breakfast included buffet items as well as off the menu. Hotel had plenty of parking and air conditioner worked great.

we had a great time at Muckross Hotel. Only thing I would say is you have to call in that you want to use the pool and spa area. which we would have known because we didn’t get to use it.

Beautiful property with lots of parking. 3 restaurant options on site, room was big and clean. Walking distance to Muckross Abbey and Muckross House. The vitality pools are very relaxing and worth getting your time booked in advance. The breakfast in the morning is exceptional and very delicious.

Nice stay! The location is convenient to Killarney National Park and Killarney. Patrick the concierge was super helpful. The room was OK - we did find a huge spider in the bed upon arrival. However, it was overall clean. It was a plus that they offer free bikes to explore the surrounding area.

Delighted with the welcome and the upgrade , staff were very welcoming.
Went to the bar for Chowder and we were frozen ,
Had a reservation in Colgans ,food wasn’t great we sat next to the heater and we were still cold in the restaurant .
Returned to the hotel for a few drinks , we sat in the lobby beautiful surroundings as there was no room anywhere else and ended up in bed for 10pm as we were so cold
It was our wedding anniversary and we were very disappointed
