This was my favorite hotel of my entire trip. I have to compliment Valeria (concierge) at this hotel. She is the most helpful concierge I have ever come across. No request was too much. This hotel was maybe a three-minute walk from the train station and certainly not far from many dining and shopping options. The room was beautiful except for some water damage spots on the ceiling, but I would DEFINITELY stay here again.

3 nights in January in Killarney

After researching hotels in Killarney, we decided to stay at the Killarney Royal. We were not disappointed. Parking is off site (about a block away), and free. The lobby was perfect for cold nights by the fireplace with a glass of wine or Irish Whiskey. The food at the restaurant was delicious. We really enjoyed meeting Veronica our first night. She was a wealth of information as far as where to go and what to see. There's a coffee shop around the corner called The Shire that I'd suggest for breakfast/lunch. We will definitely be back!

The room we were given -- the "King Royal Suite -- was a dark, dingy, two-room nightmare. The windows were blocked and etched, so we were unable to see out Upon opening the window sill, pigeon poop was everywhere. There was no screen to keep window open. This hotel is misrepresented on the internet. It is 3 stars at best, and the staff is the best part. They are friendly, helpful, wililng and upbeat. Th 440 euros! What a waste. But Michael and Nicole were eager to make it right and offered us compensations. Still, I wonder why this hotel is being advertised as a 4-Star when it is badly in need up an update!

Beautiful Hotel with Outstanding Customer Service

While taking a road trip through Southern Ireland, we were lucky enough to stay at the Killarney Royal Hotel. I have never left a review on this site, but felt the need to after our experience at the hotel. Veronica was without question amazing. Upon our arrival, she gave us perfect recommendations for our evening — activities, shops, and restaurants throughout the town. All of them were exactly what we were hoping for during our visit. However, upon our return that evening, we were able to chat with Veronica (during a quiet period downstairs) about our trip and experiences thus far and our goals for the remainder. Veronica listened to our goals and helped us draft up an itinerary for the remainder of our road trip. The following morning, when we went to check out, she even gave us a handwritten list of the itinerary with notes and recommendations. We can not thank Veronica and the Killarney Royal Hotel for the amazing experience we had. Over the course of the road trip, we traveled approximately 1,000 km in our loop of Southern Ireland and stayed at many hotels, but our stay at the Killarney Royal Hotel was the best. It was clean, personable, memorable, but most importantly the customer service we received from Veronica was without question a highlight. You can tell she loves her job and is incredibly good at it.
