Super close to town, and the host had provided us with everything we needed- info on where to get extra items needed for the room, tea/coffee station, and a sheet with pubs and restaurants near by. Also had an area for town maps! They also let us check in early - 11:45 am to be exact, when check in usually starts at 3pm. Was really helpful for us as we were at a wedding party and was hoping to drop our things off before noon! Went above and beyond to help.

Anita United Kingdom

Breakfast and hosting were both of exceptional quality. The location of the place is excellent, as your are in town with a few min walk.

Dimitri Belgium

i really liked the style of the room, it was very elegant. the staff was very friendly and it surprised me that they had a table with all kinds of toiletries and similar things for guests to take. One thing that would have been nice for the ladies is some pads, everything else was there.

Elena Germany

Jackie Ireland

Shower was good. Toiletries were in a basket upstairs to take and use if needed during the stay...shampoo, conditioner, toothpaste, hairspray. Little muffins in the hall along the tea, coffee and hot chocolate selection. Free minutes in a taxi to tbe INEC, not far to walk to reach town (12-15 mins)

Laura United Kingdom

The owners were super friendly and the breakfast was amazing!

Spend the day exploring 100,000 square kms of the UNESCO Killarney National Park- Boating in the Lakes of Killarney, Hill Walking throughout the Mc Gillicuddy Reeks or Hiking through the Gap of Dunloe. From the comfort of Killarneys Jaunting Cars take in the glorious sights of Muckross House, Ross Castle, Torc Waterfall & Killarney House. Drive along the Wild Atlantic Way, Ring of Kerry or the nearby Dingle Peninsula or spend a lazy day at one of Kerrys Blue Flag beaches-Inch & Rossbeigh are only a 40 minute drive away. When you are finally worn out from all the fresh air return to Killaran House where you can choose from 6 bright and airy en-suite guest bedrooms. Make yourself a cuppa from our little 'Cafe' while you download your photos with our free high-speed Wi-Fi and make all your friends envious. Leave your car in our free onsite carpark and take a 10 minute stroll into Killarney town centre where an abundance of restaurants, pubs and cafes await you. We recently refurbished all of our bedrooms and they come with all the conveniences that you would expect at a hotel but with the cosiness & character of a traditional guesthouse
Hello, my name is Ciara Roche and I am the owner of Killaran House. I have worked in the Tourism and Hospitality Sector for nearly 30 years. I started out my career as a chef, working in some of Killarneys finest 5 Star hotels. I then moved on to bar work and restaurant management and culminating in working as a General Manager on 1 of Killarneys 4 Star Hotels. It was after this that I decided to take the plunge and open my own Guesthouse. Having worked in some many different hotels I like to think that I bring my own unique style of hospitality to my guests while still maintaining a hotel standard of service. I look forward to welcoming you to my guesthouse in Killarney.
Killarney is one the most scenic counties in Ireland. It is the biggest town in the Ring of Kerry and is a fantastic area to base yourself when exploring Kerry. There is so much to do and see in Killarney and Killaran House is just a stones throw from Killarneys main attractions such as the National Park, Muckross House, Ross Castle, Torc Waterfall and the Lakes of Killarney. The famous Gap of Dunloe is only 10kms away. Killarney is part of the Wild Atlantic Way and the Ring of Kerry, so we are a at a great starting point. The Dingle & Beara Peninsula are just an hours drive from Killarney. 2 of Kerrys Blue Flag beaches are only a 40 minute drive
