Nostallige gezelligheid op een mooie plek.
Beautiful hotel, wonderfully furnished, right in the centre of town. Fabulous breakfast. All reception staff SO friendly.....sadly 'breakfast staff' could do with being a bit more cheery! (maybe they don't realise how much it costs to stay here!)
Just the somewhat unfriendly breakfast staff. It costs nothing to smile a bit, say Good Morning.....and Thank You (However, the young gent with the pony tail was very professional - and friendly).
Erinomainen sijainti lähellä keskustaa ja rautatieasemaa. Siisti hotelli ja ystävällinen henkilökunta.
Huoneessa vähän säilytystilaa matkatavaroille.
No air conditioning
Excellent location, staff and spotless
Room was very warm
Lovely comfortable room. Really quiet even though it's in the heart of Killarney. Staff were very nice and friendly
Great older hotel. Staff was very friendly, hotel was lovely and right in town. Very easy walk to shops and restaurants.
Nothing
Een goede locatie en het vriendelijke en zeer behulpzaam personeel
Oud, gehorig. De prijs is niet in verhouding met de kwaliteit en comfort
Great location, comfortable, very friendly staff, great breakfast!
Nice reception, nice staff
Breakfast poor. My room wasn’t serviced (towels, cleaning). Slight smell of damp.
Staff were top notch

Location
Location is excellent, close to everything. The staff are so friendly and welcoming, a very enjoyable stay.
The pillows were too hard for me
Location and lovely staff
Bit dated, could do with being modernised
The arbutus is warm and inviting from the very first glance and it didn’t disappoint The staff were very friendly and helpful
Cosy , welcoming
The location of the hotel is fabulous and the interior lovely but really it was the staff that made this stay 10/10, so so friendly, warm and welcoming and couldn’t do enough to help and be nice, we really appreciated it and I will definitely rebook
Nothing :)
Everything
Loved the staff great people
The atmosphere was lovely, the staff was fantastic. My room was facing the street so quite noisy but I’m a heavy sleeper so I was fine. The shower had hair on the floor when I got there and I couldn’t tell if the floor was just old or not quite clean. Overall a fine stay considering the main goal was to go around the ring of Kerry, not to stay in my hotel room! The location was great for nearby eats & pubs too.
Beautiful suite! Authentically decorated with modernized bathroom. Staff were wonderful! I definitely recommend this hotel for solo, as well as group travelers.
Desk lamp didnt work, nor was there a USB port next to one of the beds. Shortage of outlets in the sitting room.
Wonderful one night stay at Arbutus Hotel in Killarney. The location is fantastic. The room was wonderful and the service top notch.
I liked the old time vibes and the comfortable facilities.
I found it a little hard to get to my room but after I got there once it was very easy to find again
A realy great place to be. There is nothing else to say.
+ sehr gute Lage + gemütliche Zimmereinrichtung + einladende Lobby mit Kamin + Roomservice und Sauberkeit waren perfekt + freundliches Personal + gute Parkmöglichkeiten im Umkreis (öffentlich gegen geringe Gebühr) + gutes Frühstück
Staff very welcoming and friendly.
The room decor and furnishing within the hotel are some what out dated.
Direkte Verbindung zum Pub mit Musik Gute Lage
Hotel although clean and comfortable is very dated.
Friendly, clean, comfy areas to hang out. Excellent water pressure in the shower.
As with everything in Ireland there’s no where to park close unless you get lucky.
Fantastisch personeel
De kamer was benauwd en een beetje muf
Funcionários muito simpáticos e bom pequeno-almoço.
Apesar de muito agradável, o preço estsva um pouco elevado.
Large comfort room, 2 beds, comfort Mattress, midtown, close parks, laundry 20euro x one full bag, water , tea maker
Would love in any room the Nespresso coffee machine provided only in suites Could cost a bit less (300 x night is a bit high - perceived Value 220/250)
This is a beautiful old historic hotel that has been updated. The gal at the front desk, Michelle??, was warm, friendly and had excellent customer service skills. She held our bags in the morning before we could check in since we had an early tour and helped us out with our luggage the next afternoon. She was lovely and helpful. I did hear her on the phone telling someone that only the superior rooms have AC. I was super glad we had booked a king room because we had AC! The tub was the most comfortable I've ever taken a bath in and I have a LOT of experience in this area. I love a nightly bath! Breakfast was delicious and there were several options plus everything on the continental buffet.
We didn't love the room key. It was a large leather key holder with a skeleton key. Very historic but not fun to carry around.
Last minute booking
Nothing everything was fantastic
A nice looking transitional hotel. We enjoyed.
Perfect location for walking to shops, restaurants, and pubs.
Location central. Quiet
I felt it was a bit overpriced for the lack of room deluxe feature you would expect for that price. Eg. Complementary drinking Water in the room , biscuits to go with coffee/tea, and facecloths. Towels were thin. Furniture layout in the room was not really user friendly. No place for our case in a large room was odd.
Dated, but good location and breakfast good.
Wonderful staff and very spacious rooms. Stayed in a triple room (for 3 people) and it was more than big enough. Very warm feeling in this hotel. Breakfast in the morning was really good. Good quality food and you can tell they put their heart into their service. Bathrooms are nice and spacious. I would stay again.
We really enjoyed the Arbutus hotel, with its lovely lobby and connected pub.
We had two rooms. My adults sons had the double queen, which was much more spacious and I wished my husband and I had that room instead of our less-inviting king room.
We had a great stay! Everyone was super friendly and helpful. The room was cozy and the hotel is in a good location and very charming.
A great location in the center of town and a kind, helpful, and responsive staff z
Very welcoming. Classic and beautiful hotel. Great breakfast. Great location in center of town. Abundant restaurants to walk to and 10 minute walk to train station.
Room, facilities and staff were very good.
Breakfast was a bit average.
It was a lovely stay would stay again
. Everything the holiness of the place tge staff noting to much trouble had irish coffee after 1130 very nice too good music and good atmosphere look forward to returning bar staff young and old excellent and quick good food served as well good fir sport as well and room spacious lovely bed v comfortable .look forward to going back in autumn
Nothing all good .leaving only sad 😔
Nice hotel, with character and charm. Great location, and attached to a wonderful pub, Buckley’s.
No negatives for me.
The hotel is beautiful! Spacious, inviting and great staff! We were greeted warmly at check in by Ina, who was also very helpful giving us info about getting around in Killarney. Also, James, another member of the staff was very helpful. Our room was spacious and had everything we needed There were 3 of us ladies. We each had a bed. Bathroom was spacious too. The breakfast downstairs was lovely and delicious. The Buckley bar attached is very nice. Enjoyed the Irish music while we ate and had drinks. Very good location--near train and bus stations.
Cannot think of a thing I didn't like.
Very friendly and accommodating staff
The location was perfect, close enough to the center of attraction to be convenient, but perfectly quiet at night. The staff on the front line is all family and or people who have been working there for years, close to thirty years, which tells a story in and of itself.
Location very good
Could do with some complementary water in rooms
Super location and the friendliest staff! Also, the food was delicious :)
Location, staff and breakfast were fab as was the gorgeous room with four poster bed
Nothing
Very central, early check-in, quiet. Prices reasonable
Nothing to dislike - i have stayed several times. Old style hotel
Everything was perfect, the location, the room and the breakfast.
Bigger towels would be better.
Our room was enormous, the beds were extremely comfy and the hotel location was second to none Very pleasant and helpful receptionists Will definitely be back
Beautiful Hotel in a central location. Room was spacious, clean and bed was very comfy. Breakfast was lovely and plenty of choice. Staff were very friendly especially at check-in.
Lovely cosy hotel, v friendly, inviting and clean
Great location!
Old fashioned room
We loved how big the room and bathroom was, and even though our room faced the street, we couldn't hear anything with the windows closed! It has so much character and a lovely public bar
I worry it might be very hot in the summer due to it being an old building and I didn't see Air Con in the room
Location excellent very centrally. Lovely breakfast plenty of everything. Staff very friendly and helpful
Rashers at breakfast a little salty
