Great location to explore Muckross House and relax after your hike
Pros:

The breakfast and the spa were the best parts of the stay. Breakfast and service was very quick and delicious. Spa was fun although the hot tubs were not hot. It was a nice touch having bath salts by the bathtub although I wasn't there long enough to use them.

Cons:

The only issue is the walls were thin and the room next to me kept me up through the night. I had to turn on music in order to fall back asleep. That was difficult considering how much I paid for the room.

Breakfast and bikes were the highlight. Consider a property more up to date and closer to town
Pros:

Included breakfast was good
Service and staff were very good
Pub was fun enough
Room was dated but large, carpet was dirty, bathroom needs updating
The pool/hot tub area was a big disappointment- the outside hot tub had cold water coming from jets, the inside hot tubs each had one overly powerful jet and the others not working. We mentioned to the spa desk and she said they were “working” on a fix in a way that made me think this had been a long term problem.
It was billed as a 5 star and cost that, nearly $500 per night possibly because there was a wedding that night.
Its location is special by the national park and bikes to explore are free, which was the best part.
Closer to Killarney town center were a million other hotels which may be a better value.
Only choose this if the price is right and you like being further out. We explored Ring of Kerry from here which worked well but if going again I would stay in Kenmare or Portmagee on the loop itself.

Cons:

Pool area- broken hot tubs
dated bathroom and crowded room decor

Perfect
Pros:

You have everything you need on the property if don’t want to leave. Great food and multiple places to drink with an amazing spa. With the property being on the 25,000 acre park, you have plenty to explore and do.

Cons:

We loved the attention to detail.

Pros:

Plenty of parking, staff were lovely and friendly. The bed was comfortable.

Cons:

Booked a king size room and the price for it i expected a stunning spacious room. What i got was one of the smallest "king size" room i have ever booked. The tv/tv remote had the option of netflix and youtube none of the buttons worked. Disappointing.
