This is an interesting old home above the stores on the main street of Kenmare. The rooms were reasonable, however the bed was not the most comfortable of the 8 B&B's that we stayed in on our two week tour. Being over the restaurant on the main road also made it rather noisy at night. However, the hosts are very... more

We chose Virginia's because of the great reviews; and we had a great stay there for two nights. Neil met us at the door and welcomed us like old friends into his home. We had a comfy room on the third floor, facing Henry Street. The next morning we met Noreen, and then were treated to the most filling and... more

Virginia's Guesthouse is delightful in every way. Neil greeted us and from that moment on, we felt completely at home. He was so helpful with our bags, making dinner reservations for us, and providing us with insight for our touring the next day. The rooms are so spacious and comfortable -- beautifully appointed and furnished. The next morning we finally... more

As far as accommodations go, this was the highlight of our trip. The room itself was cozy. The bed was comfortable and the size of the room was nice compared to some other B&Bs we stayed in throughout Ireland. There is a safe in the room and there was satellite tv with a ton of channels. There was also a... more

We recently returned from a road trip of Ireland, and spent a night at Virginia's Guesthouse. This B & B is very conveniently located on the main street of Kenmare. We were only there for one night, but found it to be a perfect place to spend the night. The room was very comfortable and clean. The hosts were very... more

Stayed at Virginia's for three nights, over the May Day Bank Holiday. Couldn't fault the whole experience from our arrival to departure! Noreen's fantastic breakfasts were the highlight of our stay! We had a lovely room, really clean with comfortable beds and brilliant shower. Tea and coffee available in the library - also a chance to meet and chat to... more

Great hospitality in a great guesthouse in a great town. Neil and Noreen are a delight. We spent three nights and it was very enjoyable. Kenmare has everything a tourist would want, without the crowds and traffic of Killarney. more

Some stays are wonderful. Some stays are memorable. Some stays are so perfect that you become irrationally angry at other TripAdvisor users who give the property anything less than an excellent review. Virginia's Guesthouse is one of the latter. It was, by far, the single most outstanding experience I have ever had at a B&B. I can't think of a... more

My partner and I had the pleasure of staying at Virginias Guest House at the end of January thisyear for 4 nights. We chose Virginias from all the wonderful reviews we had read on Trip Advisor. What can i say that hasn't already been said. Virginias is wonderful. Noreen and Neil are the perfect hosts, they make you so welcome... more
