missingWrote a review on 14 Augluxurious suiteexcellent parkinggreat spatv channel limitationsdated decorfood quality issues
The Great Southern Killarney left a strong impression on me. The location is prime, just a short walk from everything I wanted to visit. I particularly loved the Victorian Suite. the luxurious bedding and well-thought-out amenities made it feel special. The robes provided were incredibly comfortable, and having on-site parking was really convenient for our day trips. I enjoyed the spa treatments too. they felt almost lavish. However, I did experience a few hiccups. The TV channels were limited, only available through saorview, which was disappointing. There wasn't even an option for streaming services like Netflix. The food quality varied a bit during certain times, which added to the inconsistency. The decor in some areas felt a bit dated, which didn't match the rest of the hotel's charm. Despite these minor inconveniences, I would highly recommend this hotel for its elegance and overall comfort.
