The Gleneagle Hotel & Apartments in Killarney

We stayed at the Gleneagle Hotel, Killarney for one night (all 33 of us) to celebrate our Dad’s 80th birthday and it truly exeded all expectations. From start to finish, the staff could not have done enough for us. A huge thank you to Anita, who was wonderful in helping us organise everything in advance, from rooms to dinner and dance bookings, making the whole process so easy. On the night, the amazing Fiadh Restaurant team made our family dinner really special. They had a personalised birthday sign for Dad and brought out dessert while singing 'Happy Birthday' - such a thoughtful touch! With our big group (and a few late arrivals!) we weren’t the easiest bunch to coordinate, but the team were so kind, patient and accommodating throughout. The food and service were excellent. We’d also like to mention Seán, the duty manager, who went above and beyond to make sure we were all seated together later in the evening. His attention and care didn’t go unnoticed and really added to our experience. The entertainment with Jimmy Buckley and his band was simply brilliant - there was something for everyone and the dancefloor was full all night long, with every generation joining in, from the little ones right through to Dad himself! It was the perfect way to celebrate such a milestone birthday and we all had an absolute ball. Beyond the celebrations, the hotel itself was fantastic. The rooms were lovely and comfortable, the kids had a great time in the leisure centre and breakfast the following morning was absolutely delicious. The lobby spaces were ideal for our family too, with plenty of room to meet, sit and chat - especially perfect for our parents to relax while the rest of us came and went. The reception staff were also so friendly and helpful throughout our stay. We left with full hearts, sore feet from dancing and the most wonderful memories. Thank you to everyone at the Gleneagle Hotel for making it such a wholesome and memorable family celebration - we couldn’t have asked for more. Highly recommend!

Large family hotel & not suitable if you are looking for a quote getaway. The room I stayed in had a bath not a walk in shower, I requested a room with a walk in shower but they refused to give me one. There was a small queue for breakfast at 7.30 when it opened, the food was ok but the dinners could be warmer. The lift near reception was very slow. The bedroom was a good size but could do with modernization and when the wind would get strong the bathroom ceiling tiles would lift. The towels were a good size but not that soft. The rooms were clean but hot at times as there was no air conditioning.

Wonderful hotel. Staff are lovely and facilities fantastic. The only points I would mention is the lack of communication on busy dining periods at the hotel. We had to taxi to Killarney as waiting period was 1hr for seating and 40mins to service. If this was relayed at check in we would have put our name down sooner to avoid hangry children. Also the room was like a SAUNA. So bad that our youngest didn't sleep a wink which meant we didn't which meant we checked out early to get home to sleep. I understand weather is a factor but this was beyond uncomfortable. These are points I make but the hotel and staff as a whole deserve 5 stars.

Fabulous roomy hotel, wonderful staff, so pleasant. Lovely stay, loved the High Kings!

Really enjoyed room fab spotless clean however we were only starting our main course which was at 8pm when staff started setting up for breakfast as in moving chairs and tables and setting up cereal stations etc felt rushed

Perfect location for a family holiday with young kids

From the time we arrive the friendly welcoming and helpfulness was beyond anticipated.from booking in to booking a day trip the young man who booked us in was exceptional in explaining what was available and what a day trip consisted of. evening entertainment was fantastic.but the most important thing for us was the exceptional help for my partner who has a walking aid which at events, breakfast and evening meals the help and assistance was exceptional, i can not thank the staff for all their friendly support and help during our stay.we will definitely be coming back .Thanks again for your help not only for my partner but making my stay less stressful...you all deserve 5 stars.

Arriving tomorrow an wonder is there a small fridge in the room pls

Visited here for a comedy show, venue itself was good however parking jam after was atrocious, took us 25 minutes to get out of the car park

We had a lovely time at the hotel. Would definitely recommend it.
