Killarney Heights Hotel
Clean, easy check in and out. Near to restaurants, shopping, and outdoor activities. Would suggest they don’t play music at 7 am or alert their guests so ear plugs are at the ready. Free parking, friendly staff.

The staff was extremely friendly, and the hotel is very tidy. The pub and restaurant on location are beautiful too. The hotel is conveniently located and within walking distance to the restaurants and retail. The national park sites are very close too. We will definitely be back!

The Brehon Hotel & Spa
Our stay at the Brehon was 10/10 - such a great venue to meet up with family. We had family members travel down from Cork to meet with us - the lobby has lots of sofas in front of beautiful fireplaces where we could gather. Then we had fabulous meals in the Bar restaurant.
