We came for lunch, the food was great and the service was top class. The spiels of the food by the servers was great in the quiet and clean garden room with a beautiful view. The highlight was the Mezcal manhattan from Harvey though, the best cocktail we’ve had in Ireland.

Room was a newly done up suite and was beautiful. Tje breakfast and waiting staff are so nice and helpful. The hotel check in experience would have been lovely but I noticed the full charge for the stay plus dinners which I had cancelled previously were also charged. The hotel is just lovely especially the art is very impressive. We were unhappy that we were charged for everything upfront without even asking were we going to have a two course or three course meal. At checkout we queried this and advised it was an error and would be refunded. I called the hotel five days in a row for my refund and receipt.. Each day I was assured it was being posted to my account today, and was given a difference excuse as to why this did not happen. Staff member gone on honeymoon to USA, staff member out on sick leave. No one available and someone will get back to you etc. . It took five calls over five days to finally get our refund. I would at least have expected to receive a detailed receipt, an explanation and apology. A pity as we are returning customers and have been twice this year. And also once a year over past ten years. Staff need to be able to deal in a professional manner with customers and follow through with what they say…..and not leave to customer to chase up. To date I still have not received my receipt. Not great service from a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ hotel.

Stayed for our honeymoon. So, so, so wonderful. Joanne and Carina in the spa managed to squeeze us in for a treatment when we’d not booked, the bar lads were great, Jonathan on the art tour and Leo on front desk were amazing. New spa is genuinely amazing. Very relaxed from the moment we arrived. We stayed in the new peninsula spa suite rooms - so beautiful.

Been waiting a long time to see the renovations to the spa at Park Kenmare...and it was worth the wait. Loved the spa under the Brennans leadership...and the new owners have surpassed my expectations. Starting at check-in, the serene tones greet you as well as key staff. Met Katy at the Landscape Spa who exudes health and fitness! May even get me to try a yoga class. Before my massage I indulged myself with the renovated lap pool...we think filled with the tears from maidens! So lovely and a great way to do your laps undisturbed! While there is a stunning sauna by the pool, I chose to explore the stone bath (hot) and cold plunge pools. Finally, booked the Full Renewal Ritual (exfoliating and massage) with the amazing Maria. This therapist is professional, respectful, and provided one of the best massage I have had since moving to Ireland. I will be returning soon! Thank you to the Meehans for giving me a 5 star spa experience right in my area.

Great Hotel. Really really wished for a more thorough starting tour. Could have made use of the hot tub and cold plunge had I been aware of their existence.
