Castle Lodge

The Castle Lodge is the perfect place to stay for a visit to Killarney and surrounds. It is within easy walking distance of Killarney town centre and only 5 minutes from the Killarney Avenue Hotel, a superb venue for drinks and dining. It is also a great base for visiting all the wonderful sites and points of interest in County Kerry. The property itself is very well appointed, our room had ample space, very comfortable beds and a great bathroom. The breakfasts were excellent and served in a beautiful little dining room. The Lodge also has an outdoor area for relaxing in the good weather and an expansive off-street carpark.

This location is great, the property and rooms look as though they’ve recently been renovated and they did beautiful work. The design of the room was lovely. There was sufficient parking, the staff is so friendly. Breakfast was made fresh to order, hot, and filling. Our only complaint is the bed; the double bed” seemed smaller than the other “double beds” we stayed at on this trip and was pretty uncomfortable overall. While everyone’s preferences are different, it unfortunately resulted in pretty rough sleep for both of us. Unfortunate, because we really did love everything else about this property. Quality rest is significantly important when traveling.

The best part of Castle Lodge was it's location: to the center of town (walkable), Ring of Kerry, Ross Castle, Killarney National Park, Muckross Abbey, Dingle Peninsula and Cork. While Castle Lodge provided ample parking, a quiet location and tasty breakfast, the guest room was in dire need of some TLC. Wall paper was peeling and ripped, the carpet needed cleaning and mold was in the shower area. All things that are easily fixed. Staff were friendly and efficient. I would stay here again.

Excellent spot . Great value. Stayed here for party in killarney great value compared to other places in killarney. Staff so helpfully. Rooms lovely breakfast location Excellent big shout to staff lovely and helpful..

Spacious room with comfortable beds, although a bit outdated. Our room looked out to an inner yard with emergency stairs, no garden or the like. Bathroom was modern, with a big shower. But it was complicated to operate it - you could unexpectedly turn on the rain shower with cold water! Quiet location very close to the city center and train station. Breakfast was exceptional - only hotel where we could have a hot chocolate! However, on our last day we had a breakfast-to-go that looked good until everything got wet from the juice because the container was broken and we didn't realize it until we got on the train (luckily we had put the cardboard bag into a plastic bag).
