First off Rose the owner is one of the most welcoming people you will ever meet. Six of us traveled up from Cork for the weekend & everyone of us felt this was one of the best B&B's we'd ever stayed in. In short, fantastic location about a two minute walk from town, wonderful breakfast (you wont leave the table... more

As the National Dutch Fly fishing team we were really happy to stay in this B&B! Rose took good care of us and even made lunch to take with us in our boats on training sessions! We felt at home. Rooms were very clean and beds were good! (very important when you are sitting in a boat all day!) more

On first impressions the place is lovely, very warm greeting from Rose who is one of the warmest, most welcoming people I have ever met. Every guesthouse should have a person like Rose. The room was warm and pleasant and still fresh. We had a double room on the road side of the house but at night it was still... more

Countess house was a wonderful two night stay in Killarney. Manager Rose was fabulous with planty of local tips and knowledge about what to visit and where to go.

Been staying at Countess House for many years. Rose offers a warm welcome to the most ideally situated guesthouse in Killarney. more

Rose the owner was so informative on what to see and do, directions on how to get there, and helped us with all our reservations in other... more

I stayed here while on a cycling tour in August. Nice rooms, though a little wear here and there and well-located, just a short distance from the train station and the city center (but far enough away to be quiet). The reason to stay here is Rose, the inn-keeper. She's like your mom, except much nicer. She exemplifies the warm,... more

Having travelled the world over many years and experienced lots of B & Bs we will never forget the Countess House Killarney. The hospitality was superb! The friendly atmosphere was fantastic and the help given to us during our stay was wonderful. Congratulations Rose! We will remember you and your family for ever Peter & Jan - Australia August 2009 more

My husband and I stayed in several B&Bs in Ireland on our trip and this one was by far the best. Rose is a gracious hostess with an acute attention to detail. She is personable and helpful...supplying maps and advice on places to stop by in the area. The B&B is in an ideal location...within a short walking distance from... more
