Very nice hotel, unfortunately the lady at the check-in desk was on the phone and had me wait 10 minutes before acknowledging me. The room was very nice but the water wasn’t draining in the bath tub.

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.

Gorgeous Hotel with a Fantastic Staff

The hotel is absolutely lovely! I had high tea and it was delicious! The staff were very friendly, in particular Sinead, who was the night front desk attendant. They made you feel like you were coming home after a long days journey. The location is stunning and perfect for exploring the area. The bed was so comfortable.

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!
