absolutely loved our stay at The Ross Hotel in Killarney. From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and genuinely helpful throughout our visit.

The hotel itself was spotless, and the rooms were cleaned and refreshed daily to a very high standard, which made our stay even more comfortable.

The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and you can really tell the team takes pride in delivering great service. It made our time in Killarney even more enjoyable.

Excellent choice in Killarney
Pros:

Very clean, big rooms with all amenities, excellent breakfast cooked to order, easy to reach, it's only a 5 min walk from the train station. As it's right in the centre of the town, when we arrived we were afraid that it may be noisy overnight- it's not! Excellent windows, we didn't hear a thing from the outside. The Ross is now my 1st choice hotel in Killarney.

As above. Lovely time to visit Killarney.
Pros:

We stayed at the Ross hotel last weekend. We would highly recommend it. From start to finish, the curtesy and kindness shown to us. Help with our luggage as we are elderly. Nothing was a bother. The lady who served breakfast was exceptional. The food was delicious. We don't write recommendations usually but I had to tell of our experience. We will definitely be back soon.

The perfect hotel!
Pros:

I booked this hotel 2 weeks ago as part of a hen party of 26. The staff were so helpful and accommodating when booking! Thanks Fiona!

The hotel is a 6 minute walk from the train station, a 2 minute walk from Reidy’s, Hilliard’s etc. wherever you may want to go.

It’s a small boutique hotel. Our room (double double) was gorgeous! Large bathroom and loads of space for four to share (voya products).

We booked the ‘girls night out package’ with karaoke for the second night. There is a
pianist playing during dinner! We thought it was great value, as well as great cocktails.

10/10 would recommend this hotel.
