Excellent stay, spotless room and great-value breakfast
Pros:

We had a really lovely stay at Killarney Oaks Hotel. The room was very clean, tidy and comfortable, and everything was well presented. The room service/housekeeping was very good, and the bathroom was spotless, with a nice bath and everything we needed.

One of the best parts of our stay was the breakfast buffet. There were plenty of different options, the quality was very good, and it was excellent value for money. I would definitely recommend booking breakfast with the hotel when making the reservation, as it made the stay even better.

The hotel also has a beautiful and peaceful location near Killarney National Park and Lough Leane, which makes it a great place to relax while still being close to Killarney.

Cons:

Nothing major. Everything was very good overall. If anything, we wish we had stayed longer.

Very disappointing, no facilities, noisy, small room that felt cheap. Definitely the worst hotel exp
Cons:

It was extremely noisy, there was a wedding. We got no sleep, small children running up and down & drunk people outside our room all night. The bed was tiny, not a double at all.

Nice hotel good location but very expensive for what we got
Pros:

Location fine,

Cons:

Breakfast was served on cold plates, thought it was Very expensive for getting breakfast to the room. Shower in bathroom very bad, shower screen doesn't fit bath properly so water was all over the floor and we could see this is an issue due to water marks on the bathroom door and bath panel. View from our room was to the laundry room with washing machines and dryers going through the night.

Poor
Pros:

Lovely location. We were on the ground floor, very very basic room for the price we paid. View from the room was a large stoned car park, very noisy when cars came and went. Bar staff friendly, little to no interaction with staff at breakfast. Discovered ants in the bathroom, in the bath, sink, on the floor and on the towels. When reported to reception staff, a mere apology was given. No refund/discount or any compromise offered. It would be nice to be able to at least use the very basic shower we paid a fortune for!
