“What this hotel lacks in modern polish, it more than makes up for with its central location, placing guests directly above a lively bar that closes at a reasonable hour. The rooms are clean, and the updated bathrooms offer a strong shower, a welcome feature after a day exploring Killarney. Though some may find the stairs challenging and the décor a bit worn, the attentive staff and fresh chamber service contribute to a homely atmosphere that's hard to beat.”
