“A little gem....Charming, Peaceful,& friendly.”

My family and I have stayed in this hotel on two different occasions in 2011 and can't wait for it to re-open again in March. We were greeted by Marion in reception and this lady couldnt have been nicer, she was so welcoming and made time for everyone . All the staff were very helpful and friendly.The reception area has both character and history with a beautiful fireplace which two Queen Anne chairs at either side of it. The bedroom was out of this world, really spacious with a walk in wardrobe and a victorian style tub in bathroom with heated floors. They have a tennis court for the more sporty enthuasists. The choice for breakfast and the breakfast itself I have to say was the best I have had in any hotel. This hotel is ideally situated to explore Killarney and Ring of Kerry.

On the edge of Killarney's National Park, You can not go wrong staying here. Doug

“Charming but leaves a little to be desired.”

We stayed two nights at Cahernane House on our honeymoon in May 2009 and let me start with the positives. The best thing it has going for it is the exterior. It charms the pants off you as soon as you see it. When you walk inside, you can feel the history and character. The staff were very friendly and the breakfast was great. It is in the perfect location to act as a base for exploring the Ring of Kerry. There are also many other things to do nearby, the national park, Muckross Gardens, Ross Castle, Ladies' View, etc. The bathroom was also very nice, with a claw-foot tub and heated floors.
The room, however, was really just average. The bed provided probably (no, definitely) the worst sleep we had on the entire trip. The mattress didn't breathe at all, so it was quite hot and uncomfortable.
I would still highly recommend this as a nice place to stay in Killarney, due to the central location and overall character.

...due to low occupancy. We were reassigned to the Lake Hotel which is a sister property. We enjoyed the Lake property but be forwarned. Hope to experience this on another visit.
