Everything about the Muckross Park Hotel is what you would expect from a 5 star rating. My first thank you has to be to the staff - they are just outstanding in every way and so utterly friendly and kind. The rooms are bliss, perfectly clean, well decorated and after staying in this hotel on two different occasions, their beds are one of the most comfortable I've ever stayed in. Restaurant and Food is top notch, service with a smile and every need attended to The Spa A few days before our stay we attended the Spa and it is perfect for a spa experience, amazing pool, outdoor hottub and the best massage I've ever had (thank you, again, Katie!) We were here for a wedding this time and everything was amazing, the food during the event was amazing and I can honestly say the staff were just on top of everything, you can tell this hotel takes the time to train their staff well. Thank you Muckross Park!

My wife and I stayed one night during an eight-day trip through southwest Ireland. The location, right at the entrance to Muckross Park, was ideal for our Killarney stop. The staff were fast, friendly, and competent across the board. Our king room was clean and comfortable, and the excellent air conditioning was especially welcome during an unusually hot day. Breakfast was menu-driven rather than buffet style and was good. The drawback is that both the rooms and common areas feel dated and overdue for an update. You can tell this was likely a very upscale property 10 to 15 years ago. It is a shame the physical property is no longer on par with the quality of the service.

The Muckross Park Hotel & Spa is wonderful place to stay. We eloped at the hotel. The staff went above and beyond in service and to help us get the things we needed for our wedding. We booked spa services during our stay and they were great. We enjoyed using the Vitality Suite. You do need to book a time slot for the Vitality Suite as they limit the number of people. The breakfast has a buffet as well as menu you can order off. Everything was wonderful full of charm and hospitality. We loved our experience and again the staff was amzaing.

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.
