The hotel was amazing! It did not disappoint in its beauty, decor, and also service! The staff went out of its way to help in any way possible. My only regret is we only spent two nights and would have loved to stay longer!

From the moment you drive up the long tree lined entrance to seeing this beautiful property to the welcoming friendly staff, to the accommodations, thus us truly a five star resort. I will definitely return to this remarkable historic property. Beautiful scenic views from the cottage rooms. Loved this place.

What's not to like about a long tree-lined drive leading to a beautiful Manor house surrounded by green grounds and pastures, with seating. High ceilings with rich wood, beautiful wall paper and draperies will transport you...but the facilities are first rate, very clean and lovingly cared for. The bar and restaurant are very good. The staff is very helpful (thank you Nichole!) and welcoming. It is also very close to town and the National Park. Perfect!

Incredible!! What an amazing stay. Such a beautiful hotel and grounds, the free bike rentals are amazing for exploring the National Park and town. All the dining and drink options at the hotel were great, especially the breakfast. The staff was AMAZING! They helped look into and book activities for us and were just generally so pleasant. Everyone is so kind. Will definitely be coming back next time we’re in Killarney.

My wife and I stayed at the Cahernane House Hotel for 3 nights. It was glorious!! The location is private and yet convenient. The staff (especially the young lady at the front desk) were gracious and very helpful. The breakfast room was relaxing and the food excellent. Our room #17 was spacious and relaxing but got a bit hot (the windows were very small). All in all ... we thoroughly enjoyed our time at this wonderful hotel.

This is an amazing property to stay at. The building and grounds are historic and well appointed. Spacious outdoor walking on beautiful grounds with historic building and castle like property. Dining was some of the best we’ve had for both breakfast and dinner. The bar in the basement is a real treat and great place to relax after a long day of touring. Staff and service were amazing and helpful. Everything was perfect.
