Beautiful studio apartment across the road from the pub. It was so comfortable with everything you could need. Jer was brilliant with communication. We ate in the pub on Friday night and the fish and chips were 10 out of 10.
Absolutely nothing everything exceeded our expectations.

Well sited within Kenmare. Great welcome. Wonderful food. The room was very clean and spacious better than most we've stopped in. Great value.
Obvious electrical upgrade with the necessary equipment dotted around detracted from the ambient decor. Might of been better closing off access to room 14 & 15. Moving us to alternate rooms in the accommodation. Tea and coffee facilities outside the room with inadequate stock. Rectified when I mentioned it to barman.

My favorite hotel in the 14 days I was there. The music in the pub was the best of my trip. The food was also some of the best we had. The staff were so friendly and fun, I’m going to remember this place.

This is the quintessential Irish pub, complete with a great breakfast that was part buffet and part special order. It's quite a foodie place for dinner. I had the special with grilled pork chops, the best I've ever had. Our waitress was lovely, the singer very entertaining. Honestly, this place was the best thing about our trip.
Nothing. It was perfect. I loved it.

The room was upstairs above the hotel.
The live music is low key and over by around 10pm.
The room was recently refurbished, spacious and very comfortable.
The bar gets a little crowded at times.

A great old school Irish experience in charming Kenmare. The pub was alive with good food and music. The staff were especially friendly. Breakfast was delicious. We would definitely stay here again
We had twin and rather small beds. We knew of the twins ahead of time so this isn't really a complaint

This spot was right in the middle of a major street with pubs and shopping all around. The breakfast had a continental buffet plus three choices for hot breakfast including a traditional Irish. The food was great and the pub/restaurant had a nice vibe.
The parking in town is tough to find, if you get a spot you tend to just stay there and walk. The room was nice but did not have A/C which I guess is pretty typical but being there in August it could get a bit warm. We had large windows to open and it worked out ok.

Very convenient, easy to park around the back
Not enough water presume in the shower as our roo was on the top floor. Although we couldn’t hear the music in our room the constant noise from the recorded music was annoying in the downstairs area.

This is a lovely pub with great food and plenty of accommodation. The room was really spacious as was the bathroom. And all the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Live music every night but could hear nothing up in the room.
We liked everything. Perhaps bed could do with an extra layer of mattress for me as quite hard. But matter of taste.

Excellent location, fabulous rooms with an extra comfortable lounge area just outside our 2 rooms. They allowed us to securely park our 2 motorcycles at the rear of the property. Our evening meal and breakfast were fantastic.
All the staff could not have done more to ensure we enjoyed our stay.
This was the second time we have stayed there and definitely won't be our last.

The room was very comfortable and spacious. There was a separate living room area with a second TV. The included breakfast was great, and all the staff were very friendly and helpful. We loved the location, right on the main street in Kenmare.
Parking near the hotel was quite limited, though it was easy enough to park in the lot less than 5 minute walk away. (I believe there is some parking behind the hotel, but we didn't use that.)
Just be aware that the live music in the pub in the evening can be very loud in the rooms. I was aware of the pub below, and I had requested a quiet room, but was given a room directly above the pub on the first floor. We could barely even hear the TV in our room over the music. I was thankful I had earplugs, though I could still hear the music with them in. I imagine that the rooms on the second floor, or those closer to the back of the building would be quieter.
