This hotel was amazing! The staff were very nice and accommodating when we needed to check-in early and when we had issues with our hotel cards. The pool in the spa was really nice as well. It is a farther walk from the town center and the bed was really firm. Overall it was a great spot for our trip to Killarney!

Everything at The Brehon was excellent. The staff was very attentive and for the most part courteous. The staff in the bar/restaurant wasn't as customer focused and were either new or need training.

Amazing stay 10/10

We had a fantastic stay at the Brehon. Staff were extremely helpful and friendly. We availed of the vitality suite facilities and the gym. Our room was perfect, extremely comfortable and had a hair dryer, iron, tea/coffee making facilities. We also had dinner in the bar which was lovely and great cocktails! Breakfast the next morning was also excellent - we had a menu to order from and could avail of a buffet. We really enjoyed our stay and can’t wait to return!
