"This was by far our favorite place we stayed at in Ireland! The location was so peaceful and beautiful - great spot in the country for exploring Killarney and Dingle. Jenn and everyone at the inn were incredibly kind, helpful, and welcoming. Their Irish breakfast was a highlight of our trip!"

EXCELLENT stay! We arrived extremely late after a long day sightseeing. We were greeted by an extremely friendly front desk clerk (wish I got his name) who immediately checked us in.
The following morning, we went in search of the Castles dog. We found him doing his job, right in front of the castles entrance! Grounds were lovely, Irish people have to be the absolute kindest people on earth!
I highly recommend Ballyseede Castle!

This place was exquisite and we plan to return in the future. The staff was very helpful and delightful. The restaurant was outstanding for both breakfast (excellent buffet) and dinner (spectacular). The setting is beautiful and walking distance from Muckross Abby and Muckross House. The walking paths are tranquil and well kept. A beautiful place that we LOVED and highly recommend.

A welcoming and warm staff. Excellent accommodations and most delicious food in the restaurant. Would not hesitate to stay at the beautiful Killeen House when visiting the area again. Highly recommend.

We had a one-night stay at the Tides and wish we had more time there. The entire establishment was immaculate. The crepes at breakfast were divine! Everyone was friendly and looked for ways to help us have a wonderful stay. Will definitely stay longer next time.

Aoife and her husband Seamus are ably assisted by their son Dermot in keeping this excellent hotel at the top of the list for places to stay - and eat - in the area near Ballybunion & Tralee. The fact that this family-run hotel is a wedge to the clubhouse at Ballybunion Golf Club is another plus.
If you have tried the best, why try the rest?

After staying in many hotels all around the country on our visit over 11 days, we found the Ross Hotel room to be the most special. Our room had a king bed, fireplace, sitting area and a spacious bath and closet area. Our view was a back alley and also a lovely side view of a church. Even though we could hear music from the downstairs businesses, our room was very comfortable and we slept well. We experienced an extra helpful and friendly front desk staff, especially Katrina.

We just returned from Ireland and my opinion of this hotel is that the service and staff are as good as it gets. The bar is so nice and we made friends there every night which made it very fun. The rooms are smallish and nothing really special: mattress is great, pillows just okay. The location is perfect and you could walk to great restaurants, pubs & shopping without hearing the noise.

I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Ireland as a must stay. The hotel itself was luxurious without being pretentious, the staff was so very helpful, it is centrally located to beach in Ballybunion, sightseeing in Killarney and the ring of Kerry, and a short drive to Adare and neighboring sights. One of the extras I loved was the fitness room, spa and relaxation room. Great breakfast spread and dining options right at the hotel before and after a day out sightseeing. ...

Part of the charm of this great B&B is finding and getting to it. The road gets narrower and narrower, and you are very aware of the charms of rural Ireland. The B&B was well maintained and clean. There is a den downstairs and access to an outdoor space, but we did not use during stay. Our room was basic but very comfortable, spacious enough for two beds, and had a lovely view. The innkeeper is a wonderful hostess and baker. Our made to order breakfast was delicious and more than generously...

Such a quietly elegant place. You feel like you are in Downton Abbey. The staff understands service and was gracious, helpful to a fault and friendly but never overbearing. The bathroom had a deep tub, heated towel rack and floor. It also had a terrace and a separate room as a closet. I was not in their best room but a mid-level room. There were many activities for both rainy and sunny days. This information is listed in the hotel manual. For example, you can go horseback riding or on a "jaunt"...

All the charm of Ireland. We had a lovely stay at Earl's Court! There where three of us and our room was spacious. The hotel was welcoming and very homey . The staff: Erma, Margaret and others were marvelous and could not do enough for you. The location was super, close to town and other sites. I have already recommended Earl's to my colleagues and friends🍀

This B&B is beautiful with a warm and inviting atmosphere. While it is centrally located close to town and the Ring of Kerry, it is not too close that you are bothered by any noise unless the calming and soothing sound of a babbling brook is not to your liking. Our hostess was wonderful and sweet and the breakfast was delicious!!
