On a tour of Ireland, this city was one of the stops and my husband and myself were the only ones out of the group to stay at this hotel. The lobby is very beautiful and our check-in was quick and the front desk was very friendly. Our room was nicely decorated with a king bed however no air conditioning. Guess this is normal here. Just a short walk, 8 to 10 minutes, to the city for shopping and eating. Con - WiFi was not good read more

Beautiful hotel!!!! A short 1/3mike ish walk from the main eatery area and easy drives to areas of Killarney National park! Service was so friendly and the morning breakfast was fabulous with several hot choices. Car parking onsite and fun tiny spaces like all of Europe parking. Nice restaurant and bar onsite. The interior is just beautiful!! We would totally stay here again! read more

Beautiful hotel, close to town. Elegant and well appointed. The decor colors are soothing, and hotel is service oriented. Really enjoyed my stay on a warmish day in June- did not see A/C but used a fan and I slept like a baby. Only slight minuses: unsecured wifi did not perform at all, Netflix did not work on TV lineup read more

Stayed here for two nights when touring Ireland, this hotel opened in 1964 and I don't think they have changed much since then. But even with it's older style furniture it has a special charm about it. From the large staircase ( so many people taking their photos here) to the fireplace or the library just off the lobby. They still use old fashion keys to unlock the rooms, this was quite the challenge for everyone in our group. At check in they told us about the trick to jiggle the key... The room was small but clean and comfortable..and since I'm only in there to sleep and shower it was fine. This Hotel it's all about the location, only a quick 5 min walk to to downtown Killarney with lot's of shops, restaurants and most importantly pubs! Right across the street from the hotel is a gas station with a convenient store. This was a morning stop to get items for traveling on the bus all day. I fell in love with their nutella muffins, cute milk containers and Irish candy. The Killarney Brewing company is also next to the hotel.. trust me stop here! Kayne's bar is attached to the hotel, loved the moon shaped bar and openness of this place. Enjoyed some Jameson and ginger here and some local favorites... Devils Helles: Lager from the Killarney brewing company. Great place to hang out after a long day of sight seeing!The hotel restaurant is the Abbey, we had dinner and breakfast here. Food was good, potato and leek soup was tasty. Pan fried chicken with veggies.. good. read more

The Dromhall hotel is a very cute hotel with a beautiful lobby and stairwell. It keeps its old world charm by sticking with using hard keys for access to the rooms (instead of the card style keys). The hotel also has a swimming pool. I'm not sure Ireland ever gets hot enough for a dip in the pool, but when we arrived in March (still cold in temps) the pool was open so I'm assuming the pool is heated. The hotel offers free WiFi in lobby but we had to ask the person at reception for the password to the network. The shower and bath products were really great and it was the only hotel we visited that actually offered lotion. The staff here is very friendly. The location of the hotel is wonderful. It is within 10 minute walking distance to cute shops, a shopping plaza, and restaurants. read more

By far my least favorite hotel of all we stayed in while visiting Ireland. It's beautiful, in the lobby, restaurants and outside, but it ends there. The front desk staff (different people over two days) were not very energetic, enthusiastic, or even remotely helpful in terms of meeting guest needs or even engaging in simple conversation. (Just one example: The WiFi-which is only available in the lobby-not even available for an extra charge in the rooms-was down both days we were there.) Using WiFi for international travel communications is very important and should be a priority to fix as soon as possible. The morning breakfast staff in the Abbey Restaurant were curt and unpleasant in a passive aggressively rude way. The food selection was minuscule and of poor quality. The tour group dinner meal was decent in the Kayne Restaurant, but the portions were small and the "dessert medley" was literally a smaller than a thumb slice of fruit bread, a spoonful of ice cream, and a one-bite cream puff (the kind I buy in bulk at Costco for potlucks). The hotel uses real keys for entrance, but the locks operate strangely. I witnessed many guests in the hall standing there just spinning and spinning and spinning their keys without the door unlocking or opening. The hotel room was a decent size and the "antique" furniture was usable, but the bathroom was patched together (bad repair of cracks in the walls and along the tub) and the shower curtain did not have any weights in it or a liner so the entire shower the curtain kept blowing in the tub and sticking to your skin (or soaking the floor if you decided to leave it open). Also our room had no outlets near the beds without having to move furniture to access them, which is inconvenient for charging electronic devices that might serve as alarm clocks or sleep/breathing machines. read more

I am shocked to read some of the negative reviews about this hotel on Yelp because it is absolutely quintessentially perfect when you imagine what an Irish hotel should look like. The staff are all so kind and informative, the hotel truly stunning, the food superb, the restaurant attached to it outstanding, and the overall experience super positive. I was mesmerized with the beauty and charm that of the artwork, decor, and furniture in this hotel, as one can see in the pictures that I posted. The only thing that was a little annoying was the fact that keys are very old school and it is hard to get into the room and each time I needed someone to help me. I can imagine that bothers some people but to me, it is part of the experience of being in an older hotel in a foreign land; it really isn't that big of a deal. People complaining about gluten free options at breakfast is ridiculous because one doens't have to choose to eat breakfast there. It is an option to purchase just like at every other single hotel in all of Ireland and nowhere did I see a myriad of gluten free options. I had a lovely time during my stay and Killarney was one of the two of my favorite cities while in Ireland. read more

This was a hotel on our tour through Ireland. I think the saving grace to this hotel was the staff and bar in the lobby. Definitely one of the best hotel bars ever. The place was filled with friendly locals and my favorite whiskey - green spot. As for the rooms, I felt as soon as I walked up the stairs and into the hallway leading to my room, I time warped into the 60's. The door locks used a key the size of my head. I felt at some point money would pour out of the lock from all of the turning I did, like it would at the casino. The rooms smelled like my deceased grandma and had this certain claminess to the air. I don't even think it was that close to town. You still had to walk half a mile. Next time, I would find something closer to town, even if it meant shelling out a few more bucks read more

Meh. No face cloths. Cramped room. Rug not vacuumed thoroughly but otherwise pretty clean. Oscillation didn't work on tower fan. Sink cracked. Didn't replace water glasses with clean ones when room was cleaned. Fake opulence for decor not my fav (plastic "marble," flocked wallpaper, gilt, plastic flowers). Bed was comfortable. Breakfast pretty good. Staff helpful & friendly at breakfast. Location close -- 12-15 minute walk to downtown restaurants (but beware of speeding cars when crossing roads). read more

I really enjoyed being at this hotel. It was really nice and we had an Irish breakfast which was really good. Everyone that works here is very kind and the rooms were extremely clean. Just amazing. read more

What a great place beautiful. The staff is amazing helpful answered all my questions and service amazing shots..

Stayed here the night of completing the WaterAid 6 Peaks Challenge. After dropping things in our rooms we immediately went to the pub attached to the hotel and ordered a proper Irish Guinness. Afterward, tried a few more beers from Ireland on draft. Upon cleaning up a bit, we had the awards ceremony at the hotel and had a table set meal. I was impressed that they came around with extra food like potatoes and such instead of throwing it away. Of course I grabbed some as I was in a calorie deficit from the 72 hours of mountain trekking. The food was not that bad. The hotel was also nice to provide a pitcher and ice from the bar so that I could make french pressed iced coffees in the morning before we departed for the ferry back to England. read more

The best thing going for this hotel is access to the indoor pool and sauna in the spa nextdoor. Our hotel room was pretty standard, like a Holiday Inn. I wasn't crazy about the toiletries (made in China, contains dodgy ingredients). I guess most people pack their own... Breakfast was pretty solid with very cheerful service. It's OK for a night, again thanks to the pool facilities. read more

Never again....the beds are very hard. The old fashioned keys and the "trick" you have to know to get into your room is absolutely unnecessary and ridiculous. It was very old fashioned decor which by that I mean old and musty. The breakfast was awful and limited and they had zero gluten free options even when asked. The vegans that we traveled with struggled with finding things to eat here, too. The bistro was good. read more

Due to poor planning on our part, we were only in Killarney for one day/night. The Dromhall Hotel was very charming. I don't know why anyone would call it nightmarish. The reception staff were very friendly, especially Sean Foley, who gave us the perfect tips for things to do with only one day in which to do it. The hotel is only about a 7 minute walk into town where we took the horse drawn carriage ride though the peaceful Killarney National Park...what a treasure. We returned to the hotel and got a delicious cup of coffee in the bar. The room was quiet and comfy. We plan to return again and spend more time in the area for cycling and hiking. read more

had sunday lunch in the bar/bistro and it was definitely one of the worst lunches we have had in the recent past. The dessert was the only good part of it. We had terrible service, had to get up on several occasions to order, move our dishes since no one came to remove them and our dinners consisted of vegetables that were withered and meat that was overcoked wouldn't ever go back unless it's the only place left to eat in Killarney read more

Killarney is so fantastic and I was looking forward to our stay. Unfortunately choosing Dromhall turned out to be very disappointing. The hotel interior was a little nightmarish, very dated decor - very stuffy. There was nothing fresh or relaxing about the place which was a huge disappointment. The staff were very present, we had no sooner arrived into our room when a cleaner just opened the door and came in, apologised and then left. The next morning we were rudely awoken by the loud and boisterous noises made by the staff in the hallways. The walls are very thin and it made for a very noisy unrelaxing stay. In a hotel privacy and guest comfort should come first I just found this to not be the case. Aside from the intrusive noise the decor added to a stressful rater than restful stay. read more

Great hotel. Very welcoming and accommodating staff. Delicious breakfast that comes with the room. Easy walking into Killarney high street and all of the action. Beds were nice and firm, comfy pillows. Only complaint is that there was a bit of mold on the bathroom ceiling. There was no fan in the bathroom and that's probably why. read more

Excellent hotel and service. Very close to city center. The awesome staff went above and beyond to help accommodate us. Breakfast/dining was more than expected. Our favorite place! Must visit this gem with outstanding views! read more

Talking to various experienced travelers since my stay at the Dromhall leads me to believe that the so-so service I experienced here is pretty much par for the course outside of the U.S. I guess we're just so used to employees in the service industry catering to our every whim that the service here seemed sub-par. With that said though, we did experience better attitudes from the staff at the other hotels we stayed at on our tour of Ireland. In hindsight though, the homey-ness of this hotel made up for the sometimes indifferent and aloof staff. If I ever return, I'd be willing to give the Dromhall another shot. It did have that old-world charm about it, and to their credit nobody batted an eye when a bunch of us found ourselves gathered around the piano in the lobby for an impromptu sing-along at a semi-indecent hour. read more
