This is a great looking building from the outside & when you walk into the reception, it feels very grand! Staff are very nice, welcoming & always happy to help. Behind the scenes in places it does need updating & remedial repairs in the rooms. The spa could do with some repairs/replacement wood work due to dangerous rusty screws in the sauna room! Some of the functional buttons to activate the water jets/water fountains don’t work either! Stainless hand rails rusty too in places… such a shame! Superior suite is a nice size with all the facilities, even cobwebs over the windows & bad signs of damp/water damage round the windows! Lots of gurgling noises coming from the bathroom pipes constantly & the odd smell that came with too! No wall or door hooks to hang your coat up as you walk in, just wardrobe or on the back of a chair… The restaurant/bar is a nice area to socialise in with friends for drinks or even a bite to eat. When ordering food, try to beat the rush, if it’s more than chips you want quickly, then good luck because when they are busy, it takes a while.. & when it does arrive, they forget the meal you ordered for the kids… We also noticed that if there’s a function on until late, make sure your not in any of the front rooms of the hotel as we were woken twice over the duration of our stay after midnight by crowds of people outside smoking, waiting for rides home or just gossiping very loudly! When I spoke to the front desk, the said it’s just a function…

It was a great experience to stay at The Brehon. Place was lovely and felt very exclusive and posh. Staffs were friendly. Breakfast was lovely and you can even order breakfast to room for addition €7 per tray. Room was very spacious, too especially the old ones. The only bad experience we had was that the bed was already sunken as probably from multiple use by guests and the bath from where we originally stayed has pink moulds on the side. Rang reception first thing in the morning as we only noticed it in the evening when we used the bath tub. Receptionist and manager acted on it very quickly and moved us to another room with free upgrade. Staffs were very friendly and we were not rushed to go back to the hotel straightaway as we were gone the whole day for tours in Kerry. We had a lovely stay. The room upgrade was small in size but was very modern and had a good view of the mountains. Overall, would recommend The Brehon and will definitely be my first choice when I come visit Kerry again.

This is a great choice if you are staying in Killarney. The food in the restaurant was shucks delicious and the desserts were the best! If you go, be sure to get access to the spa facilities as part of your package and use them! We did every night we were there when we got back from touring, before we went into town for dinner. There are many good restaurant options and many fun pubs in town. Also great shopping. And its all walkable from the hotel. Also, get breakfast there. The buffet was excellent!! We will definitely stay there again!!
