Fantastic location for exploring Killarney!
Pros:

The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Location was perfect for walking the town, even the National Park!

Cons:

The Leisure centre was a lovely perk. However, it could use a few adjustments. The advertisement of the "whirlpool" was very appealing to my friend and I after a long day of exploring... However, it was just an extension of the regular cool temperature pool with jets. It was a bit disappointing, though I did try to enjoy the stream room instead.

4 étoiles non justifiées au cœur de la ville piétonne avec peu de commodités
Pros:

En fait pour dormir ok
Centre de Spa et piscine bien en évidence dans la communication de l’hôtel mais pas directement accessible de l’hôtel , payant !!

Cons:

Centre de spa et piscine payant situé à l’opposé de l’hôtel, pas de connection directe donc 150 m à 200 m , pas simple et personne de vous explique au check in et pour cause …
Emplacement plein centre
Parking différents de l’hôtel, 200 m environ 25 euros la nuit
Pas de machine à café ni mini bar dans les chambres ( 4 étoiles )
Clés programmées pour 24 h donc à renouveler le nombre de jour de vos séjours . Pas de possibilité d’ouvrir les fenêtres seulement 10 cm par sécurité !!!
