Nice play to stay in Waterville. Walking distance to great pubs and restaurants and the beach. Waterville is near the dark sky area in Kerry so we saw great stars on our walk home in the evening

Friendly staff, great breakfast, I loved that we had a choice of full Irish, scrambled eggs with smoked salmon or pancakes. The room was really large, bed was good and comfy. We could not get the heating to work, but kept the window closed to keep the room warmer. Shower pressure was not great, but adequate.

A well maintained and clean property. Excellent quality breakfast. Unfortunately it was cold in the bedroom and even slightly damp. I requested a portable heater but instead the central heating was switched on for a short time which was inadequate. Bathroom was a tight fit and the shower pressure was quite low

Gute Lage mit Blick auf das Meer. Das Zimmer ließ sich leider nicht heizen und es war recht feucht. Der Ort hat nicht viel zu bieten aber das Essen im Lobster, dem lokalen Pub ist sehr zu empfehlen. Genauso die Pancakes mit Früchten beim Frühstück, die waren Extraklasse.

Herziges, kleines Hotel. Wir hatten ein kleines Zimmer mit Meersicht. Es hatte eine Dusche und etwas Tee/Kaffee im Zimmer. Das frisch zubereite Frühstück war absolut grossartig. Das Hotel liegt ca 1/4 Std Fussweg vom Dorf, wo es Restaurants und einen Strand hat. Das Hotel verfügt über mehrere Parkplätze.

Unwelcome but nice enough

I would normally do the positive and then hit on what's needs important but this review I feel different. The house itself is fine but at check in, I was put off. I felt like I was not welcome. I was a bother. I was hoping that by breakfast my opinion would have changed. The lady of the house wasn't mean or rude but only about the business end of things. No welcome, where ya from or anything. Her first words were when did you reserve and thru who? The house was nice enough and the breakfast was good but still felt unwelcome. First time in 15 years of travel that I just.wont stay again due to staff

Unexpected Gem

When we booked our stay in Waterville we only did so to break up our tour of the Ring of Kerry over two days. Well we were in for quite a treat. The Klondyke House was incredible. Beautiful views of the coast from every window and lovely rooms. Cirean was such a great host and cooks an outstanding breakfast. We explored the town a bit and albeit it small it has loads of character. If you're in the mood for a nice meal and good drink on the beach check out Dooley's on the shore. I wish we could come back just to spend a few days here.

Beautiful place to stay

Gorgeous location and house to stay in the beautiful town of Waterville, where we based ourselves during our trip to Skellig Michael. Had a delicious breakfast and the wifi was excellent. Would love to stay here again if we have the opportunity to come to Ireland again.
