Killaran House

Killarney

The award-winning Killaran House is located within a few minutes’ walk from Killarney city centre, bus and train stations.

Killaran House is warm and welcoming from the outside. It is a pretty yellow with a bright red door, and red sign, which helped identify it when coming home. The inside offered a sitting room with a television and an adequate dining area for guests. Upstairs the rooms were big and clean, and the beds were comfortable. A highlight of the house was that it had a television that offered far more channels than any other site we stayed. It was nice to find movies and sit-coms easily and even CNN. It was close to activities and restaurants. It was very quiet, and we only saw the host when she gave us our keys. Breakfast was good and offered both warm and cold selections. They were the only restaurant that we went to that offered pancakes. They were delicious and came with a wonderful fruit sauce. They were very accommodating with breakfast times. We enjoyed a nice quiet and comfortable stay at Killaran House.

The Muckross Hotel is a great place to stay in Killarney National Park. It is the perfect place for a relaxing getaway with spa access and beautiful nature around. The staff are all extremely welcoming, friendly, and always willing to help. The breakfast included is superb with a buffet and hot food you can choose to order. We also had dinner in the pub a few times and an afternoon tea in the Monk's Lounge. Both were great. The hotel also offers complimentary bikes you can reserve which is great to explore the park.

    We really enjoyed our stay with kids. Staff at reception was very welcoming, restaurant staff knows well to deal with kids, pool and facilities entertained kids, kids activities were also highly commendable. Kids doesn't even want to go outside hotel as they were so occupied. Family room was beyond my expectation. Very clean and spacious. Hotel even arranged child minder for the night we stayed. Taxi cost only EUR 5.

    Brilliant hotel for a family stay. Friendly staff, lovely food with big portions and variety especially at breakfast. Facilities were amazing for kids. A schedule of events was given to us at check in. The hotel had a small fairy trail, Playground, mini golf, pool (with toddler section), soft play and kids club which had a movie in the evening and even gave treats. Would highly recommend for 3 years +. We will definitely be booking again.

    This is a huge hotel on the outskirts of the city, designed for families with children. It is better to stay away if you are a childfree couple or simply want peace and solitude. Otherwise there are a lot of interesting things for children: a swimming pool, evening animation, a decent children's menu in the restaurant. Good breakfast for everyone. Lovely staff. Free hot chocolates for kids in the bar with a check-in voucher, kids love the idea. Kids club available.
