We had a lovely stay in the Great Southern Hotel Killarney last weekend, the bedroom was exceptionally nice and a walk in rain shower, the pool and all the amenities with it was very relaxing, the staff were very friendly and helpful, we ate in the bar one evening, food was delicious and reasonably priced, Breakfast portions were a bit on the small side but still delicious and the service staff were very efficient, we have stayed here a few times in the past and we will definitely stay here again, next time we are in Killarney.

Just returned from a 3 night stay in the Great Southern Hotel Killarney, arriving New Year’s Eve. We were returning guests from many years ago so we weren’t sure what to expect. My husband was celebrating a December birthday and we were delighted to be given a beautiful room 380. A bottle of bubbly and some treats along with a personalised card were waiting in our beautiful room, which had its own fabulous Christmas tree, and gorgeous views. New years was amazing with live music following a lovely meal. It was a pleasure to see the old out and the new in at this lovely venue. Breakfast is fabulous with something delicious for everyone’s taste. The highlight for me was the professionalism of all the staff. From the staff at breakfast, the staff at dinner, the barman, the waiting staff, the hard working staff looking after the rooms, the staff at the leisure centre and the friendly welcoming staff at the entrance, and reception. A great team all working together to make guests happy. Nothing was to much trouble and the hotel was full including 2 weddings but the staff were amazing and did a great job. Overall our stay at the Great Southern Hotel was a very enjoyable experience. Anna & Noel Egan.

Stayed in one of the houses, we were attending a wedding in the hotel so they were a great size for our family and very clean and well maintained. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed, all in all we were very happy with our stay and good value for money

A four star hotel with five star service… staff couldn’t have done anymore for us. We throughly enjoyed our family getaway. Can’t wait to go back.. Situated in the centre of Killarney so you can walk everywhere.. Leisure centre was an added bonus with a steam room , sauna and wonderful swimming pool. Also adjacent to the to train station..

We had a fantastic experience at the Great Southern hotel. Our upgraded room was beautiful and the Christmas tree added to the festive season. The dinner in the dining room that evening was excellent and the staff are so accommodating, friendly and nothing was too much. We travelled around Killarney sightseeing and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The very comfortable queen size bed added to a well deserved sleep. Would have no hesitation in recommending a stay at this hotel.
