“excellent experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 December 2011

people found this review helpful

My husband, parents and I stayed one night in Killarney in late August. Mary and Derry were very gracious hosts. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Mary directed us to some local restaurants and pubs which we enjoyed, as well as some local attractions. My husband was anxious to catch some Irish trout, and Mary directed us to the local park. Those were the only fish he caught the entire trip! Breakfast the next morning was excellent, and Derry provided the only good cup of coffee we had the entire trip. Our only regret is that we didn't spend more time in Killarney. When we return we will definitely stay at Elyod House.

“Brilliant B&B”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 November 2011

My best friend and I stayed 5 days at Eloyd House in late October while visiting the south western part of Ireland. Mary and Derry were the warmest and most gracious hosts we have experienced in two separate visits to Ireland. The rooms were bright, clean and comfortable and the breakfast was excellent. We had a rough start to our trip in Ireland but were completely renewed and our faith restored after spending several days at Elyod. Mary suggested some wonderful choices for dinner and we chose to go to the Bricin, The Laurels, and the Killarney Park Hotel. All of her recommendations were brilliant! Mary also helped us plan our routes around the mountains and into Cork City; even assisting with arrangements for us to do a bus tour of the Ring of Kerry (recommended). Wished we had been able to see more of Killarney and will definitely make sure to stay longer with Mary and Derry on our next trip. Would recommend this B&B to anyone visiting Killarney.

“Exceptional B&B in Killarney”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 October 2011

person found this review helpful

My husband and I were thankful we found the Elyod House B&B in Killarney. The rooms were immaculate, there was a choice of tasty breakfasts, and the Hosts, Mary and Derry were friendly and very helpful about area attractions and food spots. We were hikers, so Derry's input was helpful. Both kindly dropped us of at places to hike or recommended ways of getting to good hiking trails. They also have a very capable, friendly housekeeping staff. An added bonus, the beds were comfortable and it was quiet for sleeping. One could not go wrong staying here, just a 5-10 minute walk from downtown Killarney.

“Terrific stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 September 2011

Just returned from Ireland and this b&b was one of our favorite stays in three weeks of travel. We traveled with another couple and they concur re. Elyod. Clean, well-appointed rooms with excellent breakfasts and our host even came into town our first day to pick up our luggage so we could walk around town a bit. She also drove us into town to avoid a rainstorm and gave us a lift to the train on our last morning. Definitely above and beyond the call of duty. Mary is delightful and a bundle of energy. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

“Nice accommodations, friendly proprieter”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 September 2011

We recently returned from an Ireland vacation, and one of our stops was Killarney. The rooms were very nice and clean, and Mary was very friendly and helpful, even assisting with arrangements for us to do a bus tour of the Ring of Kerry (recommended). The breakfast was delicious, and the house was close to downtown Killarney - just a few minutes' walk. We enjoyed the dining and shopping, and recommend both Corkery's and Danny Man.
