We had a fantastic stay at the Muckross Park Hotel & Spa, made even more special by staying in one of their comfortable apartments which gave us plenty of space and convenience. The spa facilities were a real highlight – from the relaxing outdoor hot tub to the soothing sauna and steam room, everything was beautifully maintained and created the perfect atmosphere to unwind. We also loved taking out the hotel’s bicycles, which allowed us to explore the stunning Killarney National Park right on the doorstep – an unforgettable experience. Another favourite part of our visit was enjoying leisurely lunches by the fireplace in the cosy bar. The food was delicious and the setting so warm and inviting, it quickly became one of our favourite spots to relax after exploring. With excellent service, luxurious amenities, and such an incredible location, Muckross Park Hotel & Spa delivered everything we could have wished for. We can’t wait to return!

Great stay, got the best sleep on the comfortable beds in quiet well appointed rooms. Food, service and atmosphere at the attached Colgans bar and restaurant was exceptional.

Great location across from the Park, supplied bikes for cycling on the trail. Was accommodating at both the restaurant and Spa without reservations. Staff friendly, a little disappointed that there are no times set aside for kids to use pool.

We are absolutely delighted that we chose Muckross Park as our wedding venue. From the very start, we were treated like VIPs and genuinely felt that the team truly cared about making our day special. Nothing ever felt transactional or pushy, and the staff went above and beyond to accommodate every request we made. At the beginning of our wedding journey, Orla showed us around the beautiful venue and even booked us in for a celebratory lunch in the Monk's Lounge when we decided Muckross Park was “the one.” In the lead-up to the big day, Niall was a dream to work with – always quick to respond to emails and so kind to upgrade us to a Junior Suite when we visited for our menu tasting. On the day itself, Dan was simply outstanding, ensuring everything ran seamlessly from start to finish. The entire wedding team was exceptional – friendly, attentive, and so professional – and all of our guests couldn’t stop raving about how stunning the venue was and how delicious the food tasted (I’m still dreaming about that mash!). We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would wholeheartedly recommend Muckross Park to any couple looking for a magical wedding venue.

Went to the spa for the summer glow package... Was absolutely fabulous 😊 enjoyed every minute of it. Extremely relaxing treatments. Maria put me at ease she was very nice and friendly. Very relaxing atmosphere. Very competent masseuse. Facial was also lovely. Reception team were accommodating as I had to rush off for a flight and tweak the timings of lunch/treatments for the spa deal. Thanks so much. Will be back!

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.
