Provider-sourced guest reviews.
The accommodation was very good value for money, and overall we had a very pleasant stay. While the rooms could benefit from some modernising, they were perfectly comfortable and suitable for the price. The restaurant food was lovely, and breakfast was hearty and filling. It was mainly a traditional fry, so I would have liked to see a little more choice when it came to continental breakfast options. The staff were very friendly and welcoming throughout our stay. I would be very happy to stay here again when travelling for work.
Une offre « globale » Chambre et restaurant de qualité. Parking ultra proche et gratuit. Le personnel est formidable.
Breakfast was great and the central position was good for exploring
Za oknem dzialal glosno wielki wentylator nie dalo sie zasnac dopiero o 1 w nocy go wylaczyli , masakra.
Good location
Wir hatten ein Zimmer von angemessener Größe, welches ordentlich sauber gemacht wurde. Das gesamte Personal war sehr freundlich. Ein echtes Highlight ist das hervorragende Restaurant, das keinen Vergleich scheuen muss, und auch die Bar ist absolut in Ordnung. Ein Pluspunkt ist der kostenlose Parkplatz in der Nähe. Preislich war die Übernachtung fair.
Das Inventar der Zimmer ist alt. Die Matratze war mies. Beim Frühstück wird oft nicht aufgefüllt oder erst mit Verspätung.
Very elegant
Could hear people in the next room talking at 3am and woke us up
Everything was great
The River Island Hotel is really fab, very easy to get into. Parking is not provided, but there are plenty of parking spaces nearby, and a public parking lot is also very close, which I used. The hotel was nice, rooms reasonably spacious and beds comfortable. restaurant and bar provided all you needed if you did not want to go out. Staff were very friendly, smiling, and professional.
Only one thing I can say I did not like, and this is not the hotel's fault, but it did spoil my stay a bit. The room faced a side with pubs. It was Saturday night, there was a music session, and it was very loud. I am a light sleeper, and it kept me awake until early in the morning. I forgot to bring earplugs, which would have solved the problem.
It is a lovely hotel with very friendly staff
Mir hat der alte, noble Charme des River Island Hotels ausgesprochen gut gefallen. Schon der Eingangsbereich ist beeindruckend – großzügig, elegant und beinahe ein wenig feudal. Man betritt das Hotel und spürt sofort, dass dieses Haus eine Geschichte hat. Natürlich sind auch die Zimmer sichtbar in die Jahre gekommen. Aber gerade das hatte für mich durchaus seinen Reiz – und sogar einen ganz praktischen Vorteil: Zu der Zeit, als diese Zimmer eingerichtet wurden, legte man offenbar noch großen Wert auf ausreichend Schränke, Ablagen und Stauraum. Gerade bei einem längeren Aufenthalt habe ich das sehr genossen. Die Betten waren ausgesprochen bequem, und auch die Badewanne im Zimmer war für mich ein Pluspunkt. Der Zimmerservice arbeitete sehr zuverlässig und sorgte dafür, dass wir uns während unseres Aufenthaltes rundum wohlfühlen konnten. Besonders hervorheben möchte ich jedoch das Personal. Alle Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter, denen wir begegnet sind, waren durchgehend freundlich, aufmerksam und hilfsbereit. Dabei wirkte die Freundlichkeit nie nur professionell oder einstudiert. Vielmehr hatte man das Gefühl, hier wirklich menschlich zugewandten und ausgesprochen zuvorkommenden Menschen zu begegnen. Wer ausschließlich moderne, durchgestylte Hotelzimmer sucht, wird vielleicht manches als etwas überholt empfinden. Wer dagegen Hotels mit Charakter, Geschichte und einem Hauch vergangener Eleganz mag, kann sich im River Island Hotel sehr wohlfühlen. Ein weiterer Pluspunkt ist, dass die Parkplatzsituation im Umfeld des Hotels sehr unkompliziert ist.
Das Frühstück war für meinen Geschmack etwas einfallslos und bot im Wesentlichen das typische irische Standardangebot. Hier hätte ich mir etwas mehr Abwechslung und vielleicht auch ein paar frischere, leichtere Alternativen gewünscht. Die Rühreier waren leider an manchen Tagen sehr weich und für meinen Geschmack etwas zu „wabbelig“. Insgesamt war das Frühstück in Ordnung, konnte aber mit dem ansonsten sehr positiven Eindruck des Hotels nicht ganz mithalten.
Hôtel qui a du charme, il est bien situé, la chambre et spacieuse est le lit confortable. Le petit déjeuner copieux et varié
Une douche serait mieux qu'une baignoire
Ristorante eccezionale
Propreté et très cosy
A notre arrivée l’hôtesse nous donne les cartes pour ouvrir la porte de chambre mais celle-ci ne fonctionnent pas ,elle fait le nécessaire immédiatement mais voila vers 23h30 on triture la serrure de notre chambre et deux personnes et le veilleur de nuit font intrusion dans notre chambre c’est irréel !!! N’importe qui rentre dans la chambre de cette hôtel ,le lendemain pas d’excuses et le personnel n’en parle même pas !à vous de juger de cet incident !
Lovely clean warm place. Great buffet breakfast.
Nothing.
Auch kurzfristig ein bezahlbares, ordentliches Hotelzimmer in Kerry zu finden, war ein echter Glücksfall! Liegt etwas außerhalb der Haupt Touristenströme. Sehr freundliches Personal und gute Betten.
Das Frühstücksbuffet war etwas mager. Vielleicht, weil vor uns eine Busgruppe eingefallen war.
Inside the hotel was nice. Wood stairway. Pretty bar. Staff was very friendly and nice
The bathtub was dirty and we didn’t use it. This was a problem. I didn’t realize until we went to take a shower before bed so couldn’t ask to switch. That was not good.
Byli jsme celkove spokojeni, hotel ma skvelou atmosferu, personal prijemny. Jedine, co by mohlo byt lepsi je kava u snidane
Pouze ta ranni kava
Comoda
Il ristorante ha solo cose surgelate.
Reception
Posto molto carino con personale gentile. La colazione è abbondante e gustosa. Peccato per la cittadina in cui si trova che è fuori dagli itinerari turistici principali e non offre quindi grandi possibilità di svago.
Heel vriendelijk personeel die tips gaven voor mooie plekken waar het wat rustiger is ipv heel toeristisch. Hierdoor prachtige route gereden bij Dingel, de Slea Head drive ipv de veel drukkere Ring of Kerry.
Beetje harde kussens en de kamer was wat gedateerd maar wel erg schoon.
Absolutely faultless
Cannot think of anything
Posizione.
Poco pulito. Colazione scarsa. Personale sbrigativo.
staff was very nice, breakfast was nice
images do not reflect hotel - old dated, however if you plan on sleep and go it is OK, no vegetables
La propreté le restaurant et le personnel très bien
Le manque de climatisation
Iron and hairdryer didn’t work in the room z, room very hot
Everything was excellent

Nothing
Le ménage laissait à désirer des poils dans la baignoire. Impossible de dormir chambre 126 toute la nuit un bruit de soufflerie très bruyant à l’extérieur, je me suis plaint et on m’a dit que cela allait s’arrêter, je suis retourné à l’accueil à 23h50 plus personne, je n’ai pratiquement pas dormi
Super nettes freundliches Personal, saubere Zimmer mit Bad und gutes Essen im Hotel Restaurant
Great location, very friendly helpful staff,excellent food Very accessible as they have lifts to all areas
Would have preferred walk in shower rather than over bath especially if one has mobility issues. This is just a personal view and in no way reflects the hotel in general
Very cozy, comfortable beds
No parking
Struttura accogliente, un po’ retrò, letti comodi, stanza grande e pulita
Das Hotel war sehr sauber, das Personal äusserst freundlich und das Essen war super.
Hotel molt confortable i habitacions molt corrente
Great location,lovely staff members who chatted to us and enquired about our days trips etc. Hotel room lovely and clean and quiet at night.Would go back no problem👍
Not so much didn't like as to suggest brighter colour and lights in corridors upstairs and new carpets in rooms would bring the hotel up to a great standard
The staff were friendly and the hotel was easy to find and good value.
No parking in the hotel.
Decent hotel with all the necessary facilities, very friendly staff and good breakfast and dining options. Clean room and nice bathroom.
Slightly dated atmosphere and the bed was a bit too soft for our liking. Located on Main Street in Castleisland, but the town looks like being in decline, especially at night.
In the heart of Castleisland so walking distance to bars and restaurants
Nothing
What a hidden gem..wonderful hotel..great food..staff super friendly..A really fantastic experience
Morgenmaden var helt under niveau for et hotel. Stedet trænger til renovering. Valgte at spise i byen i stedet for restauranten det tror vi var et godt valg.
Nice a little bit oldfashioned hotel with a very good location not far fråm Killarny and Ring of Kerry!
Großzügiges Zimmer, sauber, sehr gutes Essen im Restaurant, das Frühstück war ausreichend, nur der Kaffee etwas schwach
Location was great. The staff were super accommodating. The food was excellent.
Unfortunately a main water main broke leaving the entire area without water. However, the staff were so apologetic about it and tried their best to keep jugs of water for the guests. The fact that the staff worked so hard to make everyone happy, made this inconvenience much more manageable.
PRIMA ONTBIJT
Lovely hotel.Food excellent.Staff very friendly..
Al estar situado en una calle en la que el tema del estacionamiento, no supone ningún problema, la ubicación está bien, los pocos pubs y restaurantes que ofrece el pueblo, están muy cercanos. el desayuno aceptable, la cama confortable y el trato agradable.
No hay nada que reprobar a este establecimiento, cumplió con nuestras expectativas y la relación calidad precio, es totalmente aceptable. Ninguna queja.
Professional staff made us very welcome Very clean and great food
Style particulier (ancien) mais ça change Plat du restaurant magnifique
We had a wonderful stay the hotel is kept very clean, the food was delicious and the staff are very friendly. A special mention for Leanne in reception and Daniel and Maurice in the bar they made our stay most enjoyable
Great spot for dinner, the steak sandwich was absolutely delicious. Staff were fantastic, especially our waitress Aisling who made sure well taken care of. Will be returning shortly
Very clean and tidy place… Lovely breakfast and staff are very friendly
No aircon in the bedroom and it was a very bloody hot day/night… even the windows open we couldn’t manage to have a nice sleep/rest as we were melting in bed 🥵
OMG this was the best place, I have ever stayed in. The staff are just amazing, so kind and so helpful. Loved it.
Room was clean and comfortable. The hotel looks great. Daniel behind the bar. Brilliant.
Do not eat in the restaurant. Don’t expect to buy a bag of crisps in the bar.
Sehr gute Lage, saubere Zimmer, gutes Frühstück
Nichts
Friendly and comfortable
Bit dated.
Charme de l’hôtel Confort Petit déjeuner super
Very good hotel. Good breakfast. Free parking nearby, 2 min walking.
Très jolie chambre, propre et confortable Salle de bain Très bien Bon restaurant. Je recommande l’irish coffee
Literie un peu molle Service au restaurant assez long. Beaucoup de jeunes gens peut être en formation pas très réactifs !!!
Great location with exceptional staff. Food fabulous. Really comfortable.
Shower took ages to get warm - but did work if you waited.
It was lacking in choice no continental apart from dried out cheese slices and only yoghurt in a bowl from which in different locations I’ve had food poisoning would have expected individual pots
Mainly breakfasts
Staff were very helpful good location for us near family
Nothing
Fantastic hotel, great location, clean and comfortable, nice little town also
Absolutely nothing to fault
The River Island Hotel was absolutely stunning! The service and food exceptional, excellent value and such a great location to explore County Kerry! You cannot go wrong with staying here, the locals are all lovely as well, be sure to pop into the pubs next door and the antique shop across the street!
Not a thing - except maybe if I could have stayed longer!
Clean presentable hotel & rooms Lovely receptionist.
The breakfast staff lack lustre compared to staff in Waterford Hotel.
Muy acogedor, el personal es muy atento.
El desayuno tardaban mucho en reponer lo que se terminaba. Desayuno un grupo grande antes de bajar nosotros y faltaban varios productos, avisamos al personal y tardaron mucho en reponer.
