Authentic Irish guesthouse with an excellent restaurant and pub. The staff was very friendly. Patrick Foley, the owner, is well known in Kinsale for his hospitality. We would definitely stay here again

Great hotel, great town.

Great stay at Foley's in Kenmare. Lovely town with music everywhere. Foley's has great windows so when closed the room is quiet. Very comfortable stay with delicious breakfast in the morning.

My first time in Kenmare. The town was great and it was a good call to stay here as opposed to the more touristy town of Killarney. Easy access to the Ring of Kerry, good restaurant and bar at the hotel, live music and rooms were clean. The next time I'm in the area I would stay in this town and this hotel.

The Hotel was in the middle of Kenmare which was nice. The room itself was very small and 2 people could barely move around. It seemd like it was a single room sold as a double. Well used and not very inviting. Would never recommend it. Yours sincerely

Disliked: Amenities
Foley‘s in convenient if you are looking to walk around Kenmare and enjoy all the town sights. But we did not like the scent our room - with clearly visible air fresheners. It was overwhelming and not enjoyable and made us wonder what scent was being covered up. Breakfast was included and our party agreed the food was abundant but not particular tasty. We would pass on a repeat visit.

Would not recommend this property for older visitors Firstly there is minimal on street parking close by Secondly there are steep stairs to access rooms Thirdly the pub has live music till 1 am. Even after pub doors closed revellers were outside our room overlooking street till after 2 am Patrick the manager was extremely understanding and allowed us to cancel the second /third nights booked We ended up in Kenmare the weekend of Ironman , not a choice we knew about We moved to The Ashe hotel in Tralee which was a great choice . Both Kenmare and Killarney are extremely busy towns

Este hotel fue la perfecta parada de una noche en nuestro viaje. Se encuentra arriba de un bar, el personal es muy muy amable! La zona es de restaurantes, bares y aunque no tiene estacionamiento privado, nos pudimos estacionar justo enfrente en la calle de manera gratuita y segura! Lo recomiendo mucho!!
