Very nice lodge but would like to have breakfast at more time slots. Only had between 8am and 9am to eat. Parking was hard as there were no spots left. Also if your upstairs like us you need to carry your luggage up. But other than that the bed was nice.

An honest review! Check in and check out perfect. Guy at check in super efficient and friendly explained breakfast etc excellent location for INEC and parking around the back a godsend. Clean and enough towels etc shower is a bit powerful and hot but with a few adjustments got it right. It’s also a bit cramped due to shelf area but a minor quibble. Otherwise great couple of nights. Beds very comfortable not too soft and great nights sleep as it’s quiet enough. All you want is a clean friendly safe spot to stay and this is it for convenience price and the nice building.

Charming property . Received warm welcome. Rooms were very clean and comfy. Breakfast was very good. Location was good we were able to walk from the train. Park/gardens just across the way and we walked into town every evening. We would recommend this property and stay again ourselves.

Great location, very close to the city center, restaurants, pubs, etc. rooms were cozy and comfortable. Christine was very helpful and gave good tips for places to visit/see while we were there. The ladies at breakfast were not the friendliest but that’s ok. Also, the pictures from the website led me to believe there was a castle on the grounds-lol. We did go to the nearby castle, but I don’t think it was the same as in the picture. Overall, lovely nonetheless. Great little town

We had a lovely 2 night stay at the Abbey Lodge and wished we were staying longer. All the staff we met were very friendly and helpful. The actual room was very large and spotless. My partner particularly loved the shower as much bigger than found in other guest houses. The property is only a short walk to the centre of town. We will definitely stay here again when we next visit Killarney.

Great location and value
Had a great stay! Rooms were cozy, hosts attentive and kind. Walkable to anywhere in Killarney; we were allowed to keep our car in the hotel lot after checkout and walk through Killarney National Park to Ross Castle from St Mary’s Church. Gorgeous walk! Many of the Gap of Dunloe tours start next to Ross Castle.

Lovely place to stay just a 5 minute walk into centre of Killarney. Great hosts and the staff were friendly, helpful and make great and plentiful breakfasts:). Rooms were clean, well maintained and spacious and lounge was a nice place to relax in along with teas & coffee on tap. Will definitely be back for a longer stay.
