The pizza was also quite good and cooked to perfection. The staff were friendly and attentive, making the whole dining experience all the more enjoyable.

We definitely recommend you go in whenever you're in the village.

During our coach tour of ireland, we spent 2 nights in Killarney. On one of the nights, one of our…read moretour dinners was a special evening at the 19th Green. I think we all had high expectations and walked away a little disappointed. It was somewhat of a buffet style, where the hosts served us a little bit of everything. The Guinness stew was good, the trout was okay, and I was not a fan of the black pudding boxty. The sides were all okay, as were the desserts. There is no A/C in the dining area, and with almost 40 of us crammed in there, we got quite warm on an unusually warm, sunny Ireland evening. Before we went in to eat, the Chef came in and gave a short (actually, a long) speech about the over-processing of food, and basically how everything we eat is bad for us. I was somewhat indifferent to it, although it was a bit "preachy". However, there were a lot of people in our group who didn't care for it, and talked about it for days.

The lodge was sparkling clean, nicely furnished, quiet, and in a very convenient location, just off of the main city centre (just a couple minutes away). And breakfast was SUPERB!!! Definitely the best breakfast we had while in Ireland, we traveled all over. The staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome and make sure we had what we needed, even taking care of our laundry. Our stay was comfortable, homey, and pampered, and I would definitely stay here again!!! We were on our honeymoon, but I think this would be a great place for families to stay, too.

It was well before check in so we left our bags there and went into Killarney which was quite close. Kathleen pull out a map and told us exactly where to go in order to get acquainted with the area. Terrific! When we got back later that day and were ale to see our room our bags had been brought in. The room was bright, airy and spotless. The bathroom was new and again spotless! Breakfast was delightful with Kathleen circulating to make sure everyone was well fed, had a good nights sleep and knew where they were going and how to get there!

Visiting Ireland for the first time and staying in Killarney for the evening, I was searching for a…read moreplace to grab dinner. Looking up different places and reading menus, I decided to give The Failte Hotel a try and overall, it was ok. I walked in on a Saturday evening, around 6:15pm. Going up the stairs to the restaurant, it was large with plenty of tables, a bar, and a few TVs playing. I got a table near the window facing the street with ease. The waitress came over with a menu but I knew what I wanted since I browsed it before walking in. She seemed new though as she wasn't overly friendly and didn't explain that I had to go up to the bar to cash out. Sipping on my pint of Guinness with Black, in what felt like maybe five minutes, my dinner arrived. I ordered the Cajun Chicken Burger, which is a grilled Cajun chicken fillet topped with lettuce, tomato, and red onion with sweet chili mayo between a toasted brioche bun and served with a side of fries. The sandwich was good, nothing really stood out, but that's fine, it had good flavor overall. I liked the spice it had and the side of fries had come fresh out of the fryer as they were very hot and crispy. Overall, a fine experience at The Failte Hotel. The waitress who waited on me seemed new and should have done a better job communicating the cash out process, but no harm done. The food was fine as well, nothing really noteworthy. If I were passing through Killarney again, I wouldn't mind coming back for dinner.

My partner and I stopped in here after travelling to Killarney from Oregon. We had been awake for…read more28 hours by the time we got to the restaurant so we were dead on our feet and too tired to feel hunger but knew we had to eat. We chose this place because it was close to where we were staying, there was food that sounded good to us, and the prices were reasonable. There was only one other table with people at it when we arrived but by the time we left about an hour later the place was hopping. I ordered the spaghetti carbonara and my partner got the classic burger. The carbonara was so good and you could tell they made their own pasta. The garlic bread was also delicious and hit the spot after a long day. The burger was also good, my partner said it had a tangy flavor that he couldn't identify but liked. The fries were also super crispy and fluffy, exactly how we like them. The servers were nice and quick to take our orders and bring our food. It took a while to pay the bill but that could certainly be because we weren't sure if they would bring it to us or if we needed to get it from the bar. A musician set up behind our table shortly after we arrived and played some acoustic sets. He was fantastic and we loved listening to him. This was a great place to stop in at when we were exhausted and in need of a good meal. I would go back for the fries on their own because of how good they were.
