Pros:

Room was a little outdated for the price.
Breakfast was wonderful, so much choice.
We had casual dining, the area is a bit strange as it is a walk through area, so as we were eating people were walking through but the food was incredible.
We did the lake walk after our meal which was lovely.

Pleasant stay in country elegance
Pros:

Room was well appointed and comfortable in 'manor house' style. Dinner and breakfast service was very good. Overall, a nice experience in our tour of Ireland, offsetting the tourist hotels that dominated our travels.

The hotel has huge potential this issue with mechanical fan noise ruined our stay.
Pros:

The location and the hotel generally are super and what you would expect from a four star hotel. I would say Kilronan has four star potential.

Cons:

Incredibly frustrating was a loud fan that kept me awake and ultimately led to having to change room leaving me fatigued following a poor night sleep.
Infuriating was the fact this was a known problem with Room 102.

Optimale Ausgangspunkt für Erkundungen der Küste egal ob nach Norden oder nach Süden
Pros:

3 Bett Zimmer sehr geräumig und genügend Stauraum für 3 Personen; sehr ruhig; Gratis PKW Parkplätze; Frühstücksbuffet sehr umfangreich und die Porridge und Eierspezialitäten sehr zu empfehlen; die hoteleigenen Restaurants sehr zu empfehlen; das Personal sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit für Ausflugstipps; das Personal ist top, von der Küche über Service, Rezeption und roomservice.... und nicht zu vergessen...einmal in einem Schloss übernachten; Spa auch wunderschön, leider konnten wir den nicht nutzen, weil wir von den Tagesausflügen immer zu spät zurückkamen;
