Pros:

non abbiamo avuto modo di provare o vedere piscina, palestra o idromassaggio. la struttura è molto bella anche se sarebbe un po' da rinnovare.

Cons:

abbiamo avuto qualche problema con il riscaldamento: quando siamo arrivati la camera era fredda e il fan coil, dopo aver chiesto di sbloccare il termostato, era un po' rumoroso

Pros:

We had pleasant interactions with all members of the staff from check-in to dinner to concierge. When we had a family situation that prompted an earlier check-out than expected, we were treated with kindness and accommodation for our quick departure. The location was directly across from the Muckross Castle grounds for an easy afternoon walk before dinner. Our room had a living area, bedroom, and 2 full bathrooms which was much larger than we anticipated. Extra nice touches included bottled water and toiletries in the bathrooms, with a large quantity of towels provided. We didn't have time to use the spa facilities but the entrance looked inviting.

Cons:

The room location appeared to be in an older part of the hotel, having to leave the main hallway area through a door to a back staircase. There was a noticeable musty smell entering the stairwell and the room itself. The furniture appeared old and uncomfortable in the living area. The carpet in many corners was frayed.

Viel Atmosphäre, tolles Frühstück
Pros:

Tolle Atmosphäre, das Zimmer war komfortabel, das Bad sehr groß und die Betten sehr bequem. Ausgezeichnetes Frühstück.

Cons:

Das Bad in diesem Zimmer ist deutlich in die Jahre gekommen und gehört renoviert, vor allem die Fliesenfugen. Eine Badewanne zum Duschen ist nicht mehr zeitgemäß.

Pros:

Our stay at the Muckross Park Hotel & Spa was wonderful. The location is fantastic, sitting beautifully right by the park and close to all main attractions. Every aspect of the service was lovely, and the food was consistently delicious.

The hotel's spa is a great amenity, though it is worth noting that it seemed to need a bit of routine maintenance during our visit, as a few specific areas were unavailable. Aside from that minor detail, everything else about our stay was excellent. It is a beautiful property, and we would certainly recommend it for anyone visiting Killarney.

Great location for nature lovers!
Pros:

The location was perfect to access the national park, it was only an 8 minute drive to city center. The staff were incredibly accommodating, the Yew Tree restaurant even accommodated my daughter’s dietary restrictions an absolute first in our travels!

Cons:

They didn’t have a pool area for kids. Not a huge missing, since there were so many other things to do, but it would have been nice to have an additional activity.
