We were greeted by Irma when we arrived and given a choice of two beautiful rooms. The bed was comfortable and the room was very spacious. She gave us some ideas on where to go for dinner. Breakfast in the morning was fantastic with a large variety of options.

Very clean, well appointed, comfortable and well maintained room. Great location We considered the hotel 4.5 stars for it’s overall appearance, furnishings and service. The Nespresso coffee machine capsules and chocolate luxury biscuits were an unexpected treat. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

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.

The property itself is a splendid georgian-style house, but equipped with all you could wish for from modern-life amenities, including an elevator which enabled us to transfer our (sometimes sleeping) toddler in her pram directly to the room. The breakfasts are indeed wonderful, including the delicious porridge and off-the-menu items! Staff is super friendly and nice, and the location is perfect - we walked to the center and back without issues. To complete the impression, Killarney itself is a spacious-but-not-too-big lovely Irish town! Be sure to check out the Reidy bar, it blew us away!

    We got in late after hours of driving and we found out the hotel has a night kids club (7-9). My husband and I enjoyed a really good dinner in a room with beautiful music! In the morning for breakfast my kids had a blast in the kids corner which was full of interesting toys and in the pool that had a slide. I would say for families this is the best hotel I have ever been into! Only 30 mins away from the ring of kerry.
