Very welcoming and approachable owners. The property has character which I like, which is a nice change compared to all the other big name hotels that I have stayed in that have no character and are the same the world over which you have to pay a small fortune for. This hotel is definitely worth the money, the beds are very comfortable and good size rooms and in an area which is great to go exploring in. I will definitely stay here again if passing through.

Stff we're friendly.
The bathroom light flickered, the stop of bathroom sink could not be removed and towel rail was rusty. I was told the bar closes at 11.30 pm, when I returned at 10.30 pm it was dark and when I asked reception i was told it was closed.
There was no shampoo in the bathroom only bar of soap.
Fosty smell from the carpets in the corridor.
Exterior looked like the place was closed up.

The hotel has a kind of magic and mix old fashion and modernity. I was with my wife and my 14 yo daughter and all of us really spent a great moment.

Such a lovely, warm welcome from all the staff. Most comfortable bed (4 poster) I've had in a long time. And the absolute best, authentic curry.... with a really good pint of Guinness. Eclectic mix of furnishings. Superb value. I'll definitely be back.
No toiletries in bathroom, but I brought my own, so wasn't a problem.
2.0 / 10.0
It didn't feel like a guest hotel at all, and we were glad that we were only staying one night.
Where do I start!! The bed was very uncomfortable. It was like it had been slept in by 2 people who slept either side of the bed. The 2 sides of the bed sagged more than the middle did and the duvet felt very heavy, like it had been used a lot. The curtain on the 4 poster bed in our bedroom looked grubby and was kept in place with random bits of different coloured ribbon, it would have been better if there was no curtain. The tiles in the bathroom were broken, but that was probably the least worst thing about the room. The room didn't feel that clean. On the hallway down to the bedroom, there was a side place just off the hallway where things like bed linen were being stored, and it didn't look very neat. The leisure center was a few machines, like a treadmill and rowing machine on the upstairs landing. There were falling down curtains in the dining room and there was a general sense that the place wasn't maintained. Breakfast choice wasn't great, it was hard to know what to eat to be honest. Previous reviews on the amount of religious statues in the reception area did not exaggerate. It just looked bizarre. We saw no other guests while we were there, so it felt very eerie and uncomfortable, not an enjoyable experience at all. The staff though were really nice and I do think that they want to do their best, but it's like they don't know how. The place would benefit from getting some help from an external consultant or just someone who could give the owners some advice as to how to run a hotel. Their intentions are good, but unfortunately their delivery wasn't.

Clean and great value for money with very friendly staff and a good breakfast in the morning

It looks like it needs an extra pair of hands outside to tidy up the exterior and make the place look a little more appealing

Wonderful caring staff & wholesome food reasonably priced in Ireland's over priced hospitality industry. Property could do with an exterior paint job & an issue with ventilation in sleeping quarters but I'm confident this little gem will become the landmark of North Kerry
Frontal exterior.

The staff was so nice, they were so helpful and friendly. Everything was correct and meet our expectations. I would highly recommend it because of the staff - They would be there for you whenever you need them.
The room was a bit cool when we arrived but the radiator is brilliant it takes a few minutes to warm up the bedroom.

It was a cosy hotel, our room were clean. This isn’t your typical hotel where the hotel interior is like every other one you’d see. Architecture and decor was cultural representing the owners culture and heritage which was so refreshing to experience
