The reception staff and everyone we encountered were an absolute pleasure and the hotel is so immaculately decorated. It has a trendy, fun restaurant that gets super busy so make a reservation if you plan on stopping in. It also has another restaurant in the cellar that we didn't get a chance to check out. The rooms are clean and cozy with a generous bathroom. I would definitely come back to The Ross if in Killarney again.

The hotel itself feels warm and sophisticated with many areas to take a seat and relax near a fireplace or in a quieter area. This is a great destination for rejuvenation and restoration. The restaurant near the lobby is exceptional with meticulous attention to every detail of service, though you may need a reservation. The presentation of food and allergens are neatly detailed for every offering with many gluten free options. The food was delicious and perfectly prepared and the service exceptional. The room itself is very well appointed and laid out in one of the most travel friendly designs I have seen. A desk, a seating area with a table to enjoy your morning beverage by the window, a refrigerator neatly hidden under the television. A closet with ample space but also a shelf to organize your travel items and clothing on the other side of the room wall so things stay neatly out of site. Thank you to the designer of this room! Robes and slippers for two placed at the foot of the bed. A nice size Tv and coffee or tea service at the desk. The bathroom includes both a shower and a comfortable size bathtub. The hotel also offers a nice bar downstairs and please consider making a spa appointment to enhance your experience. If you are in the area, this is the place to stay.

*This review pertains to International Hotel Killarney's dinner ONLY!…read more Part of tour group going around Ireland, we stayed at International Hotel Killarney for two nights and had various meals here. Their dinner menu was excellent! From their dinner menu, I started with the Bacon and Pear Salad. This salad is slices of caramelized William pear, cubes of creamy Feta cheese, crisp bacon, all lightly dressed in Irish honey & wholegrain mustard vinaigrette. This was a delicious starter before the main course, the vinaigrette was excellent! For dinner, I went with the Hannigan's Classic Beef Burger, which is prime Irish beef topped with smoked cheddar cheese, Irish bacon, on homemade pickled cucumber, lettuce, and tangy relish, served with a side of French Fries. This burger was great, cooked perfectly and the Irish bacon on top along with the tangy relish elevated this burger. For dessert, I went with the Bread & Butter Pudding with vanilla ice cream & Anglaise sauce. This was so good; the vanilla ice cream was incredibly creamy and the sauce on the bread pudding sets it apart from others I've had before!

I had a nasty experience at this hotel - stay well clear!  The staff were rude and aggressive, and…read moreit led to an unsafe situation for me and my girlfriend. We booked a twin room for 3 nights but I accidentally put down 1 guest instead of two (no price difference, just an accidental oversight). On night 2 we came back from a wedding at 4.30am ready for a night's sleep and recovery. The night porter Afrim was nasty and aggressive to both of us, saying that since we had only mentioned 1 person on the booking, only I could come in. He refused to let us go up to the room we had paid for and had our bags in, and was insulting to my girlfriend and suggested she walk the streets for a few hours till the day staff arrived. He continued to escalate and got verbally aggressive. Eventually we had to leave and walk through Killarney at 5am desperately trying to find a hotel, which was really unsafe. The next day the hotel manager couldn't care less about our issues. She claimed that she couldn't see the security videos to confirm the night porter's aggressive behavior, and refused to refund the payment for the previous night despite us not being allowed to use the room. I asked to speak to the general manager and was told she would call the next day - it's been two weeks, and I've had no contact and no refund for the night we were excluded. Steer well clear of this hotel unless you enjoy being treated like dirt...

We unfortunately didn't get a chance to stay here as our itinerary could only afford one night, but…read morethe hotel requires a 2 night minimum. We did get to have drinks in the lounge and dine at Panorama, both delightful experiences. No reservations could be made, so we showed up and put our names in for an hour wait. We found several snug spots to hang out while waiting and grabbed comfortable chairs in a lounge where we were immediately greeted by a very nice and accommodating server. We enjoyed some snacks (he even ensured the crisps were gluten-free and safe for me), and the drinks were excellent. Our table was ready on time, and we were seated by what probably was a spectacular window view, but while waiting for our table, the sun had set. While it was pitch black out, the restaurant itself was very elegant to look at. Also, our server was attentive and helpful with ordering gf. I had the monkfish and risotto, which turned out to be one of my favorite meals of the trip. Friends had French onion soup and salad, fish n chips, and a steak. Everything was excellent. Just wish we could have stayed as guests to enjoy the view, but highly recommended.

The hotel was very nice and just elegant enough. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, even though the bath tub/shower was quite small. A morning breakfast bar was a definite highlight for us and our young granddaughters. There was a great selection and an attentive service staff made sure all items on the buffet were available. Highlights to me were the soda bread, Irish bacon, and pastries. If there would be one complaint, it would be the television programming available, especially for young girls.

Hotel is very busy with tours and golfers making up most of the guests it appears. Well decorated and very comfortable area around the hotel to read a book or sit by the fireplace. We had what we were told a 'smart' room but we're still trying to figure out what was smart about it. The lights are controlled by either a wall pad or pads at the bedside. Problem is that there doesn't seem to be a way to just have bathroom lights on without the bedroom lights bring on as well. Looks like you could turn off the bed lights bring which would take it off the 'smart' pads and the lamp switches are not easily accessible if you have to access them again. Our other issue was with the 'smart' tv. Turning on the tv the hotel's information screen would come on. Selecting the tv option gets you the tv which is where the problem starts. Hitting the Guide button, which on other tvs, gets you a list of channels and what shows are on. Pressing this one takes you back to the hotel screen. Going back into the tv you find that you'll see each tv station available and in order to know what's on you need to look at each channel separately. Not a pleasant experience. Jack, our porter who was very helpful providing information about the hotel, tried to figure out what was going on but couldn't. Another porter also tried to help but again was stumped. Reported the issue at the reception desk. Was told they would have someone look at it. Came back in the afternoon to find the tv on and thought the problem was fixed (no notes left telling us what happened) but nothing was changed. Reported it again, was told someone would look at but again nothing. Should also mention when we first arrived at the room it appeared the room had not been vacuumed. Same thing the next day so that had to be reported as well. Rating is given because of the lack of interest or concern of the staff about the problems that we were having. Lovely hotel, very comfortable, good food but if the staff commitment isn't there that just detracts from the experience.

Our room was spacious and filled with antique furniture.. I love antiques. We had our private patio space with patio furniture and with the most scenic emerald green views! And views of a field of sheep : ) What was really nice...our huge bathroom. Annnnnd it had heated floors and a heated towel rack, a spacious shower, separate tub, and a vanity table. Appreciated the complimentary book provided regarding the history of the hotel, complimentary water, and bike rentals (wish we had time to utilize the bikes!) The breakfast room was a nice addition. There was a mini buffet ( just a few items like fruit, granola, etc) and a made to order menu. Food was just ok. The hotel does have a high end restaurant- must make reservation, and a casual bar restaurant. Perusing the hotel lobby and adjacent rooms were lovely. Wish we had more time here. Killarney National Park was nearby and within walking distance. We walked to and from and within the entire park, and booked in 11 miles!!!
