Great older Inn converted from a large residence, in a decent and busy area of town with lots of walkable sights, shops, restaurants plus my favourite- Killarney House and Gardens. Good full breakfast and great host.

This was a nice little hotel within walking distance of all the restaurants and stores in Killarney. Perfect location without the sound. There was coffee and tea available at all times. The staff was polite and helpful. The room was a great size and the bathroom was big.

It was in a convenient area, clean, comfortable bed and met all our needs. We ate breakfast there and the waffle was excellent! The Abbey is much bigger than we thought but quaint and personable.

Cute and Comfy
This was such a cute and comfy place! We loved our room and the host was a kick! They have breakfast for a fee but only 1 of us had it and he enjoyed it. The rest of us didn't feel like a big breakfast so we went to the local Centro where we got cheaper breakfast and it was great! Highly recommend this hotel!

Charming property . Received warm welcome. Rooms were very clean and comfy. Breakfast was very good. Location was good we were able to walk from the train. Park/gardens just across the way and we walked into town every evening. We would recommend this property and stay again ourselves.

Abbey Lodge
We had a lovely 2 night stay at the Abbey Lodge and wished we were staying longer. All the staff we met were very friendly and helpful. The actual room was very large and spotless. My partner particularly loved the shower as much bigger than found in other guest houses. The property is only a short walk to the centre of town. We will definitely stay here again when we next visit Killarney.

Great place to stay, just a short stroll to the main shopping and eating streets. Also walkable to National Park. We had a good sized room that was clean, tidy, well appointed. Comfy bed, window that opened to let breeze through was good because it was warm when we stayed in June. We didn’t have breakfast so can’t comment. Off street car parking really helpful because none available on the street. Plenty of it. Recommend.

Very nice lodge but would like to have breakfast at more time slots. Only had between 8am and 9am to eat. Parking was hard as there were no spots left. Also if your upstairs like us you need to carry your luggage up. But other than that the bed was nice.

An honest review! Check in and check out perfect. Guy at check in super efficient and friendly explained breakfast etc excellent location for INEC and parking around the back a godsend. Clean and enough towels etc shower is a bit powerful and hot but with a few adjustments got it right. It’s also a bit cramped due to shelf area but a minor quibble. Otherwise great couple of nights. Beds very comfortable not too soft and great nights sleep as it’s quiet enough. All you want is a clean friendly safe spot to stay and this is it for convenience price and the nice building.
