Gem of a hotel with beautiful surrounding.
Pros:

Beautiful quiet hotel with loads of character and charm but the staff were exceptionally welcoming. Special mention to Mary who always had a welcoming smile for breakfast and a lovely friendly chat who made your stay feel extra special. Thank you. But saying that all the staff were so friendly. Bikes were complementary to take out and I went for a lovely cycle through the national park. Really enjoyable stay, I’ll be back

Well worth your time and money staying at the Cahernane House in Killarney. Wonderful history and close to the Ring of K
Pros:

We loved enjoying a relaxing evening by a fireplace in several different sitting rooms. Breakfast was wonderful and the morning staff was very kind and thoughtful remembering our family. The Cellar Bar was fun, enjoyed different drinks and great conversation with the employees.

Pros:

This was a lovely hotel. We stayed in a manor house room and it was very spacious with a beautiful view. The breakfast was so nice and we had dinner there one night and everything was perfect. The hotel is in a good location close to town and the train station which we used.

The staff in the restaurant as well as the check in area could not have been nicer.

We are very happy to recommend this hotel.
