I had not been at The Park for a few years, and was interested to see how its design refresh and new ownership had changed it. All for the better. The design update is incremental and successful, and the new owners’ modern art collection, on display around the hotel, is very (surprisingly?) effective against the more old-world backdrop. Staff very friendly and welcoming as always, and the food has moved up a few notches - very good.

We were a group of ladies who visited the Park to celebrate our Christmas Dinner. We got such a warm welcome from Mark and Grace O’Connor , the General Manager, the minute we stepped inside the door. The ambiance is just gorgeous and was filled with twinkling Christmas lights. We had lovely sea view rooms with comfortable beds and wonderfully comfortable pillows. All in all a fabulous stay and a genuine welcome.

I can only say excellent to all the headings above! Location, accommodation, cleanliness, friendliness and so on. From when we arrived for our two night stay to when we reluctantly checked out, we loved it. Will be recommending this Hotel highly. We met with the owners in the Dining Room who were very friendly and went out of their way to welcome us.

We stayed at the Kenmare Park hotel in Nov 2025. All I have to say is if you are looking for a couples retreat dont bother looking around. This place is picturesque, calming, relaxing, friendly and the food was perfect. No need to look any further...mic drop
