The check-in was an indicator of how the stay would go. We were given room key and told it was straight down the corridor opposite the reception desk. It transpired that the room was almost at the furthest point one could be from the reception area and involved a number of changes of direction and finally a very steep and narrow staircase with literally no landing outside the room. It was well that we were both able bodied as it was a struggle to get our suitcases up the stairs. The receptionist did not make us aware of what was ahead of us, nor were we informed of location of dining room, breakfast time or any other aspect of our stay. The room was a pokey poorly maintained and poorly lit, what felt was like an afterthought to utilise some dead space. Even on a bank holiday weekend the room was grossly overpriced. To add insult to injury we were informed that breakfast was not included even though it was clearly stated on our booking confirmation. The restaurant manager was most unhelpful and couldn't make a decision on the breakfast, after much to and fro we were informed that it was Expedia's fault. There were other issues which I could expand on but the memory is making me angry. Overall , the stay was a very poor experience and we felt that we were ripped off and treated poorly.

The property needs a lot of tender loving care. It seems very run down and neglected. It could use some significant refreshing. Examples -- stains in the carpet throughout the property, including the room. There were stains and even holes in the curtains in the room. Dull fluorescent lighting throughout the property. The staff were just ok. Not rude, but not super helpful either. We were given a handicap accessible room -- not preferred. But we were too tired to ask for another room.

The biggest positive is that grounds were very well-kept. We walked along the beautiful paths around the very well-manicured golf course towards the lake at night.

I would absolutely pass on this property if I'm in Killarney again.

The Castlerosse Park Resort is a beautiful resort nestled in the middle of Killarney national park. My husband and I and our two children spent two nights and the accommodations were perfect as they even had a rollaway bed set up for my son the resort offers bike rentals, which were perfect to ride all the different bike trails around Killarney, some as to which even led you into the main street of downtown and to close tourist sites like Ross Castle and Mike Ross Abbey. Killarney riding stables is located right across the street from the resort which was super convenient as we made reservations for horseback riding throughout the national park. Overall, the resort was amazing and very welcoming! I had asked the front desk if they would do something special for my daughter‘s birthday and they happily agreed. Leaving her a sweet note and a beautiful box of chocolates in our room to be surprised with. Everything about this resort and this special town is mesmerizing, and our whole experience was truly magical.

Loved this place. Everything about this place is great. Couple of issues I would like to point out that bothered me. 1. At breakfast scrambled egg had egg shells in it. 2. Serving plates were wet, I prefer dry. 3. Bathroom light and fan should have separate switches. I say this because exhaust fan is noit

Beautiful hotel and friendly staff

We loved our stay here! The staff were all very friendly, the massage therapist was wonderful, and the food at the pub was really good!! Our room was clean and spacious and had a beautiful view. Our only complaint was the cows nearby were really loud throughout the night but it was too warm in the room to not have the window open. Could have benefitted from having a standing fan in the room to help with temp or cover the cow sounds

We spent one night here. The room was clean and large for 3 adults. No air conditioning and when we asked for a fan for the room we were told there were none! Quite warm in room!!
We booked a table in the dining room as we read in the hotel information leaflet that this is a special experience. Well we were disappointed. The food was good but the service was poor. Half way there the meal they started setting up for breakfast it was like being in a canteen
The location is fantastic but I would say it’s a 3 star hotel. Good for families but a bit of let down for us

Great location

We stayed here for one night during a tour of southern Ireland. We asked for an accessible room as my wife is in a wheelchair and in that regard it was the best equipped hotel we stayed in during our week away. The room and bathroom was very spacious and the walk-in shower meant that my wife was able to have her only shower of the week. We had a nice evening meal in the Dining Room, which has a great view across the Killarney National Park. If using the swimming pool you do need a bathing hat, which caught me out but the staff in the spa were very helpful and loaned me one. The swimming pool changing room was a bit disappointing and could have been cleaner.

Great stay

Was a great location for what we were looking to do. The room was spacious and so modern and clean along with the bathroom which would be our first preference as we’re out all day hiking and love a spacious room with a comfortable bed and good bathroom and shower 🙋‍♀️
Will definitely return again and will try the golfing on the hotel grounds along with dinner in the bar this time rather than restaurant.
Everything was just as we needed and as I’m a local lady anyway and first time here it most certainly won’t be our last thank you ☺️

Nice Rooms in a Beautiful Area

Great place to stay near Killarney. Check in was quick and easy. Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable when asked about local recommendations. The room we stayed in was large, comfortable, and had power outlets in good locations. Large bathroom as well. We were only here for one night, so we didn't utilize all the amenities, but the walking trail was great, and the fitness center and pool areas looked very nice. Breakfast in the morning was good and had options for a hot bar, cold/pastry bar, or a few custom menu items from the kitchen. Overall great experience here and would stay here again the next time we visit the area!
