The Arbutus is one of Killarney's true original hotels. Located in the town centre it is a historic, family run hotel -The Arbutus is best described as a Country House Manor in the heart of Killarney . Whilst small, it has the luxurious accommodation and service expected from a larger hotel, with the advantage of all the personal attention and discretion that a smaller property can offer. Location, service, knowledge and comfort. It is often described by guests as a home away from home. We look forward to the opportunity of making you feel at home

Highly recommend this quaint gem. The food is fabulous, the staff exceptional. Very cozy, beautifully decorated, feels like “grammas house”. The pub on ground floor has live music in the evening with a lot of local Irish flavor!

My husband and I stayed at the Arbutus hotel in Killarney for 3 nights in June 2022. It’s a charming hotel right in the centre of Killarney and is full of character. From the moment we arrived we were greeted by very friendly staff and felt very much at home. The reception area is very cosy and inviting and resembles a sitting room with a fireplace and very comfortable armchairs and couches. The bedroom was very spacious and the bed was large and very comfortable. Breakfast was delicious with an excellent range of choice. Management and staff were exceptional.. friendly, helpful and super efficient. I would highly recommend this hotel and will definitely return again.

This hotel is VERY centrally located with lots of shopping, restaurants, bank, and jaunty horses nearby. The bedding is lovely and room 223 has a nice view. Room 222 has no view. The breakfast is not as extensive as some.

Another wonderful stay at the charming and historic Arbutus Hotel. As always everything to perfection. The new Courtyard is fab where we enjoyed great food, you must try their homemade deserts. Loved the drawing room adjoining Buckley’s Bar, an ideal location for high tea or cocktails with special friends. Looking forward to our next visit.

Went for drinks with friends on Saturday afternoon. It was a catch up with old colleagues and I have to say Denis behind the bar was sensational. We all work in the hospitality sector and know how hard the industry can be, but with Denis nothing was a problem. He brought our drinks to the table and for our second round we didn't even have to ask he knew exactly what we all were having. Would highly recommend calling to Buckley's Bar for a few drinks. Thanks again Denis
