Charming hotel
Muckross was a beautiful old hotel. The rooms were lovely and very comfortable. The dining room was formal and the dinner was excellent. We enjoyed breakfast. It was across the street from the Killarney national park. We enjoyed a beautiful walk and the Muckross Abby.

Wonderful quiet hotel with comfortable beds, friendly staff and a beautiful walking path through the woods right outside. The only negative is that the pool is too small for lap swimming.

This is my second stay at Muckross Park Hotel and Spa. It continues to surprise and delight with its rooms, spa, and dining options. Book the afternoon tea for a wonderful afternoon. The spa is the height of relaxation. The service is remarkable.

This hotel is just across the road to the park. Amazing location and they provide the bikes so you can set right out. Room was large and clean but a bit warm even though we lowered the thermostat as much as it would go. Maybe a lighter blanket would have been enough. All in all a great experience. Breakfast was the best! Would stay here again.

Vacation in Killarney
From start to finish this place was first rate from a time you checked into the time you left it was impeccable. The food was great. The service was outstanding everywhere you went. People were helpful. I actually forgot a bag in the room. She called me an hour after I left and asked me if I wanted to come back and get it or if she wanted me to ship it to my house he just don’t see Service like this very often I would stay there in a heartbeat.

Nice staff, quick check in, but property is a little tired and the property is a little bit out of town. But it gets the job done with quiet rooms. They don't serve breakfast until 7:30 am when people are up hours before 7:30 walking around the lobby looking for coffee and something to eat.

The hotel was just as described and quite beautiful and welcoming. The service was particularly noteworthy and just extraordinary. My husband fell ill during our stay and everyone reached out to help in ways we had never seen. They were extremely helpful in arranging medical appointments and transportation and followed up with several offers of support as if we were staying in a private home. The spa service I received was outstanding. I strongly recommend this hotel without reservation.

This was the perfect break from the city. From start to finish everything was perfect. Highly recommend if you want a relaxing stay close enough to the city center but far enough to be a relaxing retreat.
