“Brilliant hotel”

Stayed there recently for a weekend and attended wedding in the hotel. The staff are fantastic, so pleasant and helpful. The hotel is decorated beautifully and the rooms are great. We had a room with a full terrace area, a great bonus! The restaurant is one of the best I've ever eaten at. The menu is really fantastic and the service is second to none. Can't wait to get back and try the Spa the next time

We celebrated my wives 40s’ at the brehon killarney from 29/5 to 1/6 2008, booked RIVERDANCE show from the hotel. The hotel simple room was big, convenient very clean and decorated and maintained very well. The staff was kind and nice, and we had fantastic time at the spa. The atmosphere at the bar felt young and sexy. There are plenty of things to do and see at the close surroundings’. We highly recommend the BREHON hotel as 100% succeed! THE RIVERDANCE SHOW AT I.N.E.C WAS BREATHTAKING!!

“Utterly Relaxing”

The Brehon

Jun 1, 2008

My Family stayed at The Brehon for my parents wedding anniversary over a weekend, and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. We booked a package with a meal included on the 2nd night. The restaurant organised a private area in the restaurant for us which was a lovely touch. Food was wonderful as was the service. I loved the decor of the bedrooms & everyone commented on how spacious they were. Our room was overlooking the park & we could even spot some deer near the woods! Pool & spa were lovely. Didn't have any treatments but will definately return for a treat another time. My partner & I rented bikes from the hotel on the Sunday morning before we left & went through the park to the lakes only a couple of minutes away. Would highly recommend doing this if you want to explore more than just the town. Overall- best break i've had in a long time & my parents were delighted with their anniversary gift.

“all wonderful except for the rooms...”

The Brehon

May 28, 2008

This stay was booked as a part of a "bridal shower"..fancy name for a hen weekend. The exterior of the hotel was beautiful, very impressive...except for the godawful massive carpark behind the hotel! the reception area was lovely, very striking, lovely helpful staff...the corridors were very welcoming..strange thing to say about a hotel but when I get to the next bit it'll make sense! When we got to our room our excitement wa building as we expected somehing really fantastic...and instead got something just..ordinary. Two single beds, cheapish looking wardrobes..the bathroom door kept banging off the bath so much so that it had knocked some of the tiling off the bath. The shower was tiny and piddly. It may sound like I'm nit picking but you do expect more from a 4* hotel especially in a hotel room which is where you do spend most of your time. On the plus side the spa was lovely and the food in the restaurant was fantastic. the bar was very comfortable although saying that it's laid out over three levels is pushing it a bit considering that it was 7 steps down to the lower level and 4 steps up to the higher one!! All in all nice hotel but pity about the room!!
