Toll, mit kleinen Abstrichen
Pros:

Ruhige Lage etwas außerhalb der quirligen Stadt. Gute ansprechende Zimmerausstattung. Das beste Frühstück auf unserer Rundreise. Tolles Essen im Restaurant und schöne Bar

Cons:

Vor dem Zimmer brummte die Lüftungsanlage des benachbarten Hotels. Der Teppichboden im Frühstücksraum hat schon zu viele Frühstücke erlebt und fördert den Appetit nicht

Pros:

The staff were a credit to the hotel and themselves.

Cons:

A very small issue for me was the dinner menu. I would of liked more variety but that was just me. The food was fine

Ein Bijou von einem Hotel hinter einer unscheinbaren Fassade. Unbedingt anschauen.
Pros:

Dieses Hotel hat unsere Erwartungen übertroffen. Von aussen sieht es (Irisch typisch) unscheinbar aus. Sobald man das Haus betritt, wird man von einem sehr geschmackvoll eingerichteten Interieur überrascht. Hübsche Bilder, schöne Kunst, zum Verweilen einladende Sofas, kleine Bibliotheken usw.
Das Essen ist hervorragend! Sowohl das Frühstück (excellente Gebäcke (pastries)) als auch das Mittags- oder Nachtessen. Der catch of the day war fantastisch.
Das Personal ist ausserordentlich freundlich. Auch die Besitzerin hilft aktiv mit und das spürt man.
Grosses Zimmer (wir hatten das Luxury Alder Room) mit grossem und hellem Badezimmer (allerdings kein Fenster im Badezimmer).
Kostenloses parking.

A nice old fashioned feeling hotel, conveniently placed.
Pros:

The breakfast was fabulous! There was an amazing choice and the service professional and friendly. The hotel is very conveniently placed, just a very short walk, from the Convention Centre.

Cons:

Anything disturbs my sleep so the noise from the main road outside was a problem.

All the bones to be excellent, however, inconsistent, and therefore a touch overpriced.
Pros:

Comfortable room. Delicious Breakfast!

Cons:

We were told at check-in breakfast could be taken to-go. The day before we left we asked if we could arrange for our breakfast to go, due to an early airport departure. We were told no as the kitchen wasn’t open when we were leaving (around 0700). As we brought our room cards down the next morning we saw some other folks were enjoying an early 7am breakfast…

Pros:

Es ist eine sehr niedliche Unterkunft und sehr nett eingerichtet. Alles ist sehr gepflegt und sauber. Das Frühstück war sehr lecker. Allerdings wird man am Tisch bedient und muss somit etwas mehr Zeit einplanen. Die Lage ist perfekt um von dort aus zum Ring of Kerry oder Gap of Dunloe zu starten. Das Restaurant ist relativ teuer, aber es gibt genug Möglichkeiten zum Essen vor Ort die man zu Fuß oder in ca. 10 Minuten mit dem Auto erreichen kann. Genügend kostenlose Parkplätze sind vorhanden.

Friendly staff and good clean facilities.
Pros:

Central clean and comfortable

Cons:

Rooms could have been a little bit warmer. Continental breakfast should have been a buffet. Tea and coffee on the room are in the closet and not visible. Without a pool or gym it’s on the more expensive side but overall it’s a lovely hotel, great staff, clean and comfortable

We cannot wait to return. This is where we would love to stay again.
Pros:

The property was absolutely beautiful. The location couldn’t have been better. The rooms were well appointed. The views were spectacular. During our stay, we enjoyed a fabulous dinner in the Ivy lounge where we were celebrating our son‘s 20th birthday. The service was impeccable and we’re so kind to accommodate our dietary needs. The desserts were heavily. The staff was so helpful and kind. We felt so welcome!

We had an awesome stay at the Victoria Hotel in Killarney and would highly recommend it to anyone planning a trip to Ki
Pros:

The Location was perfect- just across the street from Killarney National Park where you can visit Muckross House, Muckross Abbey, the Turc waterfall and Ross castle. The downtown area is also close by. The Staff were exceptional especially Maura at Reception and John who served us at The Ivy. The breakfast staff was also wonderful.

The rooms were very comfortable and clean, and they had all the essentials and more.

The food was amazing also.

We truly enjoyed our 3-night stay at the beautiful Victoria Hotel. Thanks for making our trip to Killarney such a blessing!

Sincerely,
Karla Matos

Cons:
