Samantha, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Not worth the money

Lovely manor house with nice decor, however food is not good enough for a four star hotel. Ate in bar first night and was average -couldve have gotten far better locally.... breakfast is appalling -no options for continental breakfast with only a few pastries on a plate to chose from and the cooked breakfast was not good. Saw loads of people leaving half eaten plates. Seriously needs improvement in this area. We ate out our second night as the restaurant is not worth the money for the quality of food or options on menu. Room cleaning needs improvement too, as our room was full of spiders which freaked out my wife, and this is due to lots of cobwebs on display which should be removed.

This hotel was gem of our stay in Ireland. The staff were friendly and extremely helpful. We will definitely stay here again.

10/10 Exceptional

What's not to like about a long tree-lined drive leading to a beautiful Manor house surrounded by green grounds and pastures, with seating. High ceilings with rich wood, beautiful wall paper and draperies will transport you...but the facilities are first rate, very clean and lovingly cared for. The bar and restaurant are very good. The staff is very helpful (thank you Nichole!) and welcoming. It is also very close to town and the National Park. Perfect!

Beautiful house. Loved all the antique furniture in our room. Saw so many deer out in the field from our window. Several dining options on property; breakfast was great. Thank you for a very memorable stay!

Zaida, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This is an amazing property to stay at. The building and grounds are historic and well appointed. Spacious outdoor walking on beautiful grounds with historic building and castle like property. Dining was some of the best we’ve had for both breakfast and dinner. The bar in the basement is a real treat and great place to relax after a long day of touring. Staff and service were amazing and helpful. Everything was perfect.

First class establishment. I am a lifelong traveler for both business and pleasure, People say they would stay again, but I don't know if they always mean it. If we are in Killarney again someday, this is where we will stay!

Felt like royalty!

I absolutely adored this property! The staff were very thoughtful and kind. They went out of their way to ensure our stay was everything we wanted. The room was beautiful and bed very comfortable. The dinner was absolutely delicious and worth every penny. The grounds are well kept and hotel in great condition. We felt like we were home! Will definitely be back!

Absolutely wonderful experience. The facility, the grounds, the staff, the rooms, the bar and the restaurant were all first class. I’m recommending it to everyone.

Full Bridgerton vibe!

We’ve had an amazing time here. Very cozy, clean hotel with excellent staff, you can appreciate attention to detail in everything. This place is impeccable. Stay in the garden room if you can for a nice terrace overlooking the gardens where you can have your cup of tea and enjoy the morning air! The restaurant at the hotel offers the most amazing fine dining experience I’ve had in a long time, really worth trying. The food is locally sourced and delicious. Very recommended and I’ll be back for sure!

Angela, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Highly recommend Cahernane House Hotel if you're going to Killarney. We stayed in the carriage house in a ground floor room looking out onto the lovely courtyard, fields, and mountains in the distance. Breathtaking. Our room itself in its furniture, layout and decor was the perfect combination of simple/modern, and old-fashioned/luxurious - with a very comfortable king-sized bed, and a spacious bathroom with separate shower and large bathtub - and small touches like antifog mirror. The staff were very friendly, helpful and professional, and the breakfasts were tasty. We borrowed bikes one evening and biked around Killarney National Park, which was great. My only very minor complaint is the hotel could use to get some better bicycles, but I suppose it's tricky because if the bikes are too nice, they might disappear...
Christiana, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We arrived home last night and are already making plans to return. Our stay at Cahernane was beyond anything we expected. The house itself was just stunning, the carriage house (where we stayed) was enchanting, breathtaking, and so comfortable and clean. The dining (both in The Cellar and main house) was top notch. And the service on all levels was just lovely. The staff were all accommodating, warm, and kind. We walked the grounds, which are pristine and also explored the area. We did have a car, however will definitely take the bikes next time. Muckross Abbey and House and the Torc Waterfall are within 10 minutes (if that) of the house - all of which were stunning. And the National Park is the other major reason we'd stay here again. There is so much more we want to explore in the park. Don't miss the Gap of Dunloe and Ladies View, and if you do have a car, please go exploring the park roads. Just incredible. On a side note, anyone who is gluten and dairy free will have an easy time here. My husband had no issues dining at either restaurant on grounds and everyone was extremely accommodating. Overall, it was truly a magical experience to be repeated!

The property and most of the stuff were great. The bar stuff, in particular the younger skinny male, was passive aggressively rude.
