Killarney Plaza Hotel and Spa
Everything was as expected. The only suggestion would be to inform guests prior to arrival of the road closures in the downtown area that affect gps routing to their parking garage. The downtown area has road closures from late April to early July each year!

The Lake Hotel Killarney
A magical setting where deer and swans wander by, and castles transport you through time. The hotel hits the perfect balance between providing every amenity without intruding on your peace. We loved our lake house stay and hope to return someday.

Parkavon Hotel
The room was very comfortable and clean. Our only critique is that the towels were a bit skimpy and there was no face-cloth, despite only supplying liquid soap. The lobby provides plenty of space for gathering and the location is excellent. Ample parking for those arriving with a car.

Killeen House Hotel
The room was beautifully appointed, the bathroom as well, all very clean and the staff were friendly. The scenery, their gardens, the ruins an neighbourhood farms all made it even more charming. The breakfast was delicious. Would love to come back and stay again!
