Killarney Towers Hotel & Leisure Centre
Loved the pool, and the room was just right. Breakfast was good, with several choices. Rare to see a full continental breakfast with the room these days. Also, the workout area was the most complete facility I have ever seen in a hotel, and I do travel a fair amount.

The International Hotel Killarney
We will be back. Loved the central location to pubs, restaurants, grocery and the national park. Breakfast was great and priced accordingly. Rooms were very clean, and VERY quiet! We arrived on 24 straight hours of travel at 1pm. They got us in our room early so we could rest.
