- Rachel (10/5): -
- Erwan (9/5): - L'accueil à notre arrivée ainsi que la situation géographique, à 5 minutes à pied de Main Street.
- Pat (8/5): Geweldig - Ontbijt was perfect, veel keuze.
Mooie omgeving en het was 5 minuten lopen naar het ccentrum Tweepersoo sbed zou iets groter kunnen
- Martine (7/5): - Nice hot shower and very decent rooms. Very close to the town You hear quite a bit of sound coming from other peoples rooms, like conversations or when your neighbor is snoring. So not the best place to stay if you are sensitive to this.

Great place to stay. 4 minutes to walk to town. Area very quite.
- Brenda (7/5): Lovely people, very helpful and accommodating. - Breakfast was fine, would have preferred if my fried ingredients were served minus the slice of bread underneath - not sure what the purpose was. Location was excellent, few minutes walk from town centre. the room was fine, could have done with a few more sockets.
- Brugger (8/5): -
- NICOLE (9/5): Bel hébergement proche du centre ville - La proximité du centre ville et néanmoins au calme J’aurai préféré une douche à une baignoire
- Engelbert (7/5): Zentrale Lage - Die Unterkunft ist sehr zentral gelegen. In 5 Minuten erreicht man die Main Street.
Insgesamt ist die Unterkunft in die Jahre gekommen.
Das Bad ist veraltet und macht keinen gepflegten Eindruck.
Das Frühstück ist okay.
- Chloe (10/5): -
- Karsten (8/5): - Die Lage ist sehr gut, in wenigen Minuten ist man im Stadtzentrum. Das Frühstück war sehr Gut und das Personal sehr freundlich. Die Parkplätze sind eng, aber in ausreichender Anzahl vorhanden.
- Jan (9/5): - Tolles Zimmer, sauber, zentrale & ruhige Lage, Innenstadt in wenigen Minuten zu Fuß erreichbar, Parkplatz vorhanden, hilfsbereites Personal, Frühstück nach Wunsch + kleines Buffet
- Johannes (8/5): Prima verblijf, dichtbij het gezellige centrum en schitterend nationaal park - Ruime kamers , rustig gelegen net buiten het centrum (5 minuten loopafstand) van het gezellige Killarney en het nationale park. Excursies naar bijvoorbeeld Ring of Kerry of Gap of Dunloe mogelijk. Vriendelijke gastheer/gastvrouw en personeel. Prima ontbijt. Afzuiging in de badkamer niet goed werkend.
- Erin (10/5): -
- McConn (9/5): - I loved the place and was treated so well when I arrived the lady upgraded my room and the people were so lovely. Loved the soda bread too. 5 minutes walk from everything.
I’ll be back for sure
- Daniela (5/5): Leider nein - Die Freundlichkeit der Mitarbeiter!
Die Lage! Ich hatte ein Zimmer im EG was bedeutet, dass man von draußen direkt ins Zimmer kommt.
Mir war das Zimmer und vor allem das Bad zu kalt - Heizkörper war am Abend zwar warm - schaltete sich aber irgendwann Nachts wieder aus. Das Zimmer ist feucht - in der Früh läuft das Wasser förmlich das Fenster und der Tür entlang weil alles so beschlagen ist. Der Kleiderschrank war unbrauchbar, da er extrem muffig war. Den Geruch im Empfangsraum wo die Rezeption kann ich absolut nicht zuordnen - ist jedoch sehr unangenehm. Dadurch dass man im EG immer die Vorhänge zuziehen muss um Privatsphäre zu haben ist es dunkel - und zusätzlich zu allem anderen was ich aufgelistet habe, führte letztendlich dazu, dass ich mich überhaupt nicht wohl gefühlt habe. Ich würde diese Unterkunft nicht mehr wählen - so nett und bemüht das Personal ist.
- Emma (10/5): Exceptional hospitality from John and the entire team - Helpful staff, clean rooms, breakfast included, great location
- Robert (10/5): Ein sehr schöner Aufenthalt in Killarney. - Es war einfach alles perfekt. Es gibt nichts.
- Jason (9/5): - Location is great. Can't beat the value of these rooms. Very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was also very good.
- nathalie (9/5): - L'emplacement,le calme et la qualité du service
- Barbara (10/5): Pleasant surprise - Basic but CLEAN with a perfect location and the nicest proprietors. Would definitely recommend Furniture is dated but immaculately clean
- Jacques (9/5): - Localisation, amabilité Rien
- Cindy (7/5): -
- Jessica (9/5): The girls make this place what it is .. they are super friendly and so welcoming.. they always have a smile no matter ho - Clean, tidy , friendly staff, all the girls are amazing and are a credit to the management The over powering smell of bleach as you walk in the room,
And not being asked if we wanted housekeeping (I’m not a fan of having people in my room when my personal belongings are in there and I’m not)
- Maria (9/5): - Central location, quiet, private
- Roger (10/5): - El personal y la situación
- Caroline (9/5): Fantastic stay in a great location - Tasty breakfast however fresh coffee would make it even better Use fresh coffee instead of instant
- David (10/5): The most friendly, welcoming and pleasant stay you could ever want. - This place really is a hidden gem. It is so close to the town which is bustling by day and night, yet it is quiet and peaceful once you’re ready for sleep. The staff are so friendly and they work so hard to make sure you have a great stay. Breakfast was excellent and run so efficiently. The room whilst basic still had everything you need for a comfortable stay. Yes it looks a little dated now, but so what. Overall I can’t over emphasise how friendly and helpful the staff are, especially Sandra, who helped with so many recommendations directions to here, there and everywhere. It’s right on the edge of the Beautiful national park, so many things to explore. Faultless
- Armelle (8/5): - Emplacement près du centre-ville et des activités avec possibilité de laisser la voiture sur le parking de l’hôtel
Le calme
La literie de qualité
Le petit déjeuner excellent Pas de wifi dans la chambre
Espace un peu restreint dans la chambre
- Rosanna (10/5): Perfect stay - A hidden gem in Killarney 👍
Second time there and as nice as the first stay
Perfect clean, comfortable room nr 19, delicious breakfast, very friendly
- Micheal (8/5): Unassuming homely feel accommodation tucked away in excellent location with welcoming staff - A beautiful unassuming property tucked away in the centre of Killarney. Its proximity to the town, its friendly staff and excellent breakfast were a real standout. For the price and the type of accommodation nothing to not like
- Ralf (7/5): -
- Ana (10/5): -
- Loefflad (8/5): - Die Lage ist sehr zentral. Hübscher Garten und sehr freundlicher Service. Bei Nutzung von Wasserhähnen hat es ständig lautstark gebrummt. Auch von Nachbarzimmern.
- Vicky (10/5): Lovely accomodation in excellent central location - The Gardens Guest Accommodation was fabulous. Location was great, breakfast was plentiful and delicious and our room was clean and comfortable. The hosts, John and his lovely wife were delightful. They were so helpful, providing us with lots of useful information. We couldn’t have asked for more. Nothing.

- oasis82 (10/5): -
- Pierre (9/5): Idéal tant pour une étape qu'un séjour prolongé. - Excellent accueil dans cet établissement fort bien tenu et offrant une garantie de parking. Endroit très calme. Excellent petit-déjeuner. Excellente localisation. Bref, tout est excellent.
- Hayley (7/5): Great location perfect for what we needed! - Great location The room above mine was very noisy
- Luz Divina (9/5): Genial! - La cama era muy cómoda Las cortinas no son completas opacas y dejan pasar la luz.
- Vivienne (10/5): - Excellent BnB and warm friendly staff and owners going above and beyond to look after us , we loved it !
- Herman (7/5): Great base to hit the Ring of Kerry in the morning - Prime location in Killarney, free parking. Friendly helpful staff, decent breakfast available. The area is pretty quiet and serene. Clean and maintained. Pretty comfortable for one night. The building itself is quite dated. Toilet mechanism needs replacing. The cistern filling took about an hour or so, driving me nuts with the sound of teeny tiny water stream. The flush itself was quite weak as well. The shower was cramped and claustrophobic but there's no way to improve it with the amount of bathroom space. The turn to the facility from the main road is a dangerous concealed entrance. Take care to use the mirror!
- Massimiliano (10/5): -
- Mario (8/5): -
- Jessie (10/5): Perfect - Lovely clean rooms, staff were very nice and helpful, really good location None
- Mark (9/5): -
- Horacio David (10/5): Great place, quiet and comfortable - The breakfast was great, the employees were lovely and the location is great centric but quiet.
- Silvia (8/5): Guter Ausgangspunkt für den Ring of Kerry. - Sehr gute Lage, ruhig. Die Innenstadt ist zu Fuss sehr gut zu erreichen. Sehr gutes Frühstück.
Das Personal gibt auch gute Tipps für Ausflüge, Sehenswürdigkeiten und Restaurants. Nicht ganz leicht zu finden, der Wegweiser ist etwas verwirrlich.
- MARIA ASCENSION (9/5): - Cordialidad del personal y ubicación del alojamiento.
- Lineke (8/5): Very nice accommodation, near the centre and a friendly staff. - Good location, very sympathetic owner.
Friendly staff, who served a fantastic breakfast!
Parking place.
- BohemianFrance (9/5): - Very nice accomodation near town centre. Everything is easyli in walking distance. The staff is very nice, warm and welcoming. The breakfast is freshly cooked each morning and offers different options from which you can choose. The beds are a bit soft und the pillows a tad to firm for my taste, but I slept very good. The shower drain is very slow and if you have long hair you have to wait till the water has drowned, before you can continue to wash your hair, otherwise you will flood the bath
- Johannes (10/5): Geräumiges und gemütliches Zimmer mit guter Ausstattung zu geringem Preis. Preis-Leistung sehr gut! - Spitzen Preis-Leistungsverhältnis: Großes Zimmer mit guter Ausstattung und Frühstück inklusive für 80€ pro Nacht. Besser geht es fast nicht.
Sehr nette Gastgeber und ebenso nettes Personal beim Frühstück.
Es sind ausreichend viele Parkplätze an der Unterkunft verfügbar. Die Matratze war etwas weich, aber das ist ja Geschmackssache.
- joe (10/5): - Everyone was very helpful and friendly. The room was very comfortable, and the property was spotless. The property gardens were beautiful. I had an excellent breakfast before I left.
- Justine (10/5): - La propreté,
La proximité avec le parc national et le centre ville
Le petit déjeuner
- Nicole (9/5): Tolle Lage - Die Lage ist einfach wunderbar 😊 In die Stadt hinein braucht man ca. 10 min. zu Fuß. Das Personal hier sehr freundlich, die Zimmer sauber 😊 Frühstück sehr lecker und ausreichend.
- Fredrickc74 (10/5): -
- Luisa Francesca (8/5): Quando le persone fanno la differenza - Nonostante la struttura sia molto semplice, ho apprezzato l’impegno con cui i proprietari la dirigono, la loro gentilezza e i preziosi consigli di viaggio forniti. Sono rimasta soddisfatta inoltre del servizio a colazione, della pulizia e della posizione, defilata, ma a un passo dal centro.
- Jochen (8/5): Beste Lage und ruhig, aber sehr eng - Liegt sehr zentral in einem sehr ruhigen großen Garten, nur wenige Gehminuten ins Stadtzentrum und in den Nationalpark. Parkplätze sind vorhanden! Das Zimmer war grad mal so groß, dass ein Doppelbett reinpasst.
- Sylvie (10/5): Agréable & Confortable - Tout! La gentillesse du personnel à l’accueil et aux petits déjeuners, l’emplacement au calme avec la proximité du parc, du centre et de la station bus. La chambre bien équipée. Le petit déjeuner appréciable. Rien
- UK USA Trip (8/5): - Proximity to Killarney, walking distance to city centre & amenities.
Excellent breakfast, timely with friendly helpful staff. Room a little sterile, felt more like motel than BnB, but met our needs and a good size.
- duygu (10/5): - This place is awesome! I’m a solo traveler, and I felt completely at home here. The breakfast is amazing, much higher quality and more homemade than I expected. The location is perfect, and if I ever come to Killarney again, I will definitely stay here! 😊
- Anna (10/5): Perfetto per visitare Killarney - La struttura si trova a 200 metri dal centro di Killarney e ha un parcheggio gratuito per l’auto. La camera era pulita, comoda, bel areata e illuminata con un bagno piccolo ma funzionale. Saponi e phone come asciugamani a disposizione. Hanno riordinato la camera e cambiato gli asciugamani. La colazione si svolge in una stanza apposita piacevole e sul giardino. Un piccolo self service per lo yogurt e i cereali come i succhi di frutta e poi servizio al tavolo per the o caffè o la scelta del tipo di colazione salata. Tutto molto buono, abbondante e cucinato al momento. Pane tostato e in cassetta caldo con burro a volontà. Un posto dove tornerei volentieri Tutto ok
- Paul (10/5): -
- Salvucci (10/5): - Personale molto gentile, stanza localizzata in una posizione ottima, a 5 minuti a piedi dal centro. Stanza pulitissima. Ci siamo trovati benissimo
- gerard (10/5): - The best B&B in killarney the rooms were comfortable and cosy. The host was very kind and made us feel very welcome. Lovely hot breakfast was served in the morning. Everything was fine.
- Valérie-Hervé (7/5): -
- Mike (10/5): We loved our stay and would highly recommend. - Creat accommodation conveniently located within walking distance to all the major attractions. Very private and quiet.
- Sylvia (10/5): -
- Collette (8/5): -
- Christine (9/5): Wonderful place hope to come again! - Wonderfully central location but very quiet with a lovely garden. Perfect starting point for discovering Killarney and hiking. The rooms are comfortable, breakfast is great and the personal very helpful and kind.
- Emily (8/5): -
- Deborah (9/5): Perfetta per Ring of Kerry - Posizione eccellente per visitare Ring of Kerry , personale gentile, pulitissimo. Colazione tipica irlandese abbondante e buona Avrei gradito un piccolo minibar - frigo in stanza, ma comunque era tutto perfetto
- Giuseppe (8/5): - Molto pulito e vicino al centro città (10 minuti a piedi) e alle stazioni di treni e bus Colazione monotona, servivano solamente variazioni di irish breakfast con uova, salsicce e pane tostato con marmellata. Yogurt e cereali. Non vi erano croissant o cakes.
- Yvonne (5/5): Okay - Die Größe des Bettes war gut und auch das Bad war sehr groß. Die Lage war top, keine 5 Minuten von der Fußgängerzone entfernt. Das Personal war auch sehr lieb und hilfsbereit. Uns wurde auch ganz genau erklärt, wie wir den Ring of Kerry am besten fahren und wo wir Stopps einlegen sollten. Leider was das Zimmer feucht von innen. Jeden Morgen waren die Fenster komplett angelaufen. Aufgrund dessen ist auch mitten in der Nacht der Feuermelder los gegangen. Das Zimmer ist relativ klein. Das Housekeeping öffnet auch jedes Mal die Fenster, egal wie kalt es draußen ist. Das ist nicht von Vorteil. Die Wände waren sehr dünn und man konnte die Nachbarn hören. Zudem sind direkt vor der Tür und dem Fenster Lampen, die die ganze Nacht an sind, wodurch es sehr hell im Zimmer ist nachts. Und Privatsphäre bleibt einem auch wenig. Zudem sind an einigen Stellen Schimmel zu erkennen von der Feuchtigkeit.
- Fergal (8/5): -
- Elizabeth (9/5): -
- RickJKwiecien (9/5): Perfect location, in a perfect area - Perfect location and fantastic staff Not much really but I found the duvet too heavy to sleep under. It felt like I was weighed down all night.
- Tom (7/5): - Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Die Lage ist ruhig und man kommt fußläufig in die Stadt. Parkplatz direkt an der Unterkunft. Irisches Frühstück inklusive. Ausstattung in die Jahre gekommen. Es roch sehr stark nach Schimmel im Bad. In Abfluss des Waschbeckens waren noch viele Haare der Vorgänger. Wände sind sehr dünn. Wie können das Gespräch und das Schnarchen der Nebenzimmer hören.
- DELPHINE (10/5): -
- Carlo (10/5): -
- Kacey (10/5): - Staff were absolutely amazing, very kind and helpful. Room was perfect for our needs. Breakfast was extremely good
- Danny (10/5): - Amazing location, price, room and amazing staff. Killarney is popular with everyone I know so I'll be sure to tell them about the gardens as it's an amazing spot just a two minute walk from the centre of town!
