If you'd like some outdoor adventure, pay a visit to Purple Mountain. No easy stroll around the block, this hike is fantastic for some mid-vacation exercise.

Purple Mountain is an interesting place to begin discovering Killarney. This steep landmass comes recommended by fellow travelers, but it's not the only spot to see here. Allow time for other sights like Gap of Dunloe, INEC Killarney, and Killarney National Park to fully experience what the area has to offer.

7.6/10 Good! (549 reviews)

The bar and atmosphere were amazing! This hotel was super busy with tour buses and big groups coming through. The food is great and the service excellent! The building is old and needs updated badly. The room showed signs of being very old and not professionally maintained. Faucets leaked, carpet old, bathroom tub left a lot to be desired. Overall I would stay there again, very family friendly. Just understand it is an older hotel.
