We loved our stay at the Muckross Park Hotel. All of the staff were kind, helpful, and welcoming. It was wonderful to be able to walk/ hike in the park without driving anywhere and we walked to the Abby, Muckross House & Gardens, and Torc waterfall from the hotel. Returning from hikes to soak in the warm pools and sauna was divine. We stayed in a family room which was large and comfortable. It’s a short drive into Killarney, but we really liked staying in the peaceful setting of the park. The breakfast was delicious- I had the best eggs Florentine I’ve ever tasted. We would absolutely stay here again next time we visit.

We had such an amazing experience at the Muckross Park Hotel and Spa we added an extra day. The staff there is fantastic. We got a message and relaxed in the vitality pool and spa. Rooms were comfortable and was able to get my laundry cleaned before traveling back home. Breakfast was delicious. We would definitely recommend staying here.

Exquisite!! Stunning hotel set in the Killarney national park....the staff cannot be more helpful or friendly if they tried. The decor and the rooms are beautifully crafted and the spa & invinity pool are magical, Gothic themed giving off ancient Roman vibes. A MUST for your visit. We travelled 260 miles to get here and will definitely travel again. I would give 6 stars if possible

My wife and I just returned from a 4-night stay at Muckross Park Hotel & Cloister Spa. This 5-star hotel lived up to its rating in every regard. The suite we stayed in was just beautiful and with the extra sitting area above the entrance, my wife commented that she felt like a princess. The Cloister Spa was exceptional and we enjoyed the service there on several days. All of the international staff - from the doormen, front desk to wait staff - were pleasant and helpful to any issue. We ate dinner at Blue Pool and Molly Darcys pub - 2 of 3 on-site resturants. The staff at the was especially helpful with the wine selection as we celebrated our anniversary one evening. The food was absolutely delicious at both places. The hotel is right across the street from walking paths, jaunting carts, and the Muckross House in Killarney National Park. All in all, we absolutely recommend this hotel and would stay there again in a heartbeat.
