Top Kenmare Hotel Reviews

Great Southern Killarney

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent. Some older fixtures in the room but otherwise perfect and wonderful property with comfy beds, an excellent bar and endless amenities"

The Lake Hotel Killarney

10/10 Excellent

"Such an exquisite getaway overlooking Muckross Lake. I requested a lake view suite and it was very well-appointed. The view across the lake to the mountains did not disappoint. I had dinner and drinks downstairs at the bistro both evenings and I highly recommend it for the food, view, and service. Parking on sight is plentiful. I went off-season so the hotel was not too crowded, but they do recommend reservations in advance during busy season. I ordered room service and it was very prompt. The heated infinity pool was a must-have add-on (cost per hour). The grounds are manicured daily and make for a relaxing morning or evening stroll. I can’t understate how friendly and welcoming everyone was, nor how impressive the view was."

Muckross Park Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"First off, the staff made this a first class experience right from the start. Before experiencing anything with the rooms or property we were given a very friendly and inviting greeting by the staff helping us with luggage, pouring us hot apple cider, and generally just a very warm welcome. The spa was so nice and the design was so luxurious I felt like royalty in Rome or Greece. Our group definitely took advantage of every aspect of the spa! What a great service and it's hard to believe it's included with the rooms. Maybe the best fish and chips I've ever had. We got everything from fish and chips, to salmon, steak, beef stew and other items. All very very good. Breakfast was great too! Jason in the Monk's Lounge bar truly took pride in his work, just a bummer he wasn't there 24/7 because he's a character and made it very entertaining. Jerry was also a shining star in the Monk's Lounge. One of the nicest people I've ever met and he always remembered us and told us how happy he was to see us again. I don't recall the names of the others in Monk's Lounge as their names were harder to pronounce but I believe Alex and the lady working as a waiter several of the evenings we were there really treated us well. Shauna, I believe was her name at the front desk was so incredibly helpful. She allowed us to extend our stay in the same room after moving things around. Management and staff should be proud of their incredible work! Lovely place! We'll be back!"

Shelburne Lodge, Georgian House, Garden, Parking, 5 min Walk from Kenmare Town

10/10 Excellent

"The Shelburne Lodge is an absolute gem of a vacation home and a truly unique, authentic Irish experience! We rented the house for a week in early August 2026 with a group of family and friends. The Lodge is amazing in the way that they protected the original history and charm of the property yet have updated the amenities to make it very comfortable for the modern traveler. Patrick, Anne-Marie and team were fantastic hosts with great communication and assistance before, during and after the trip. They are the perfect mix of helpfulness if we needed them and hands-off when we were enjoying our vacation! We would absolutely rent this property again!The kitchen is equipped for catering, so has all you need to make amazing meals for your group (including a large grill outside). The 10 bedrooms were very comfortable, clean and beautifully appointed. Many of our group commented that they had the best night's sleep in a long time! (Pro Tip - rooms 9 & 10 in the guesthouse have bidets!)The home is a 5-minute walk to Kenmare center, with a safe, accessible sidewalk the entire way into town. There are 3 grocery stores within walking distance (and a handy quick mart around the corner w/ off-license and ice for emergency refills!) Considering the close proximity to all this convenience, the property is very large, beautifully landscaped and quite secluded, so we felt like we were in a private oasis dining al fresco in the lovely garden each evening."
