Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about Gleneagle Killarney Hotel from previous guests about their experience
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests frequently highlight the Gleneagle Killarney's excellent entertainment, often free for residents in the ballroom. The location is generally considered convenient, offering a shuttle service into Killarney for a small fee and proximity to attractions like the Ring of Kerry; some guests have found the walk to the town center manageable, though others may prefer a taxi. The rooms are spacious, with options like balcony rooms and walk-in showers, however a few guests felt some rooms could benefit from updates. Many appreciate the plentiful breakfast and environmentally conscious efforts, such as recycling bins and shampoo bars.

This hotel offers fantastic value apartments on the grounds. I found my apartment spotlessly clean and very cute. The service in the backstage bar was really good. Adyson handled a slight delay with our sandwiches quickly. The prawn pasta in OD's on Saturday night WAS AMAZING!
The music selection in the bars after the event left something to be desired.
