We chose this property based on its location, amenities and historic charm. The beds were comfy and the room quiet. The swimming pool and sauna were an especially nice treat. The day spa was a bit difficult to utilize due to communication issues. (Not the hotel's fault. It was operated by a separate group. )

Great location a short walk from town centre. Wonderful lounge which was a great place to relax with a book and a nightcap in front of the open fire. Room was very modern with touch controlled lighting and shower. Mirrors were a bit odd. Bed very comfortable. Only complaint was the room in lower level and being awoken every morning before 6 by loud truck outside bedroom window. Make sure your room is on a higher level.

Spacious and comfortable rooms in a great location. Good pool facilities but it gets busy and crowded if there's is more than 5 people. Would like to see better continental breakfast options, e.g. savoury options, more varied fresh fruit.

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were exceptionally clean, and the beds were very comfortable. The staff were highly professional and maintained an excellent standard of service throughout our visit. One of our favorite features was the cozy lounge area with a fireplace and relaxing background music. Combined with the many interesting paintings on the walls, it created a warm and inviting atmosphere—perfect for unwinding after a long day

What's not to like! The Randles is an amazing place. We stayed in one of the new townhouse rooms. It was beautifully furnished, including a lovely fireplace and mini fridge, even air conditioning! Private parking and great location. My ONLY complaint was the lighting in the bathroom was not quite sufficient for doing makeup and (for my husband) shaving. Reception desk...JUSTIN...is the BEST! Such a pleasure to meet him, very helpful, great sense of humor, still remaining professional. He was a joy to meet. Miss him already! Food was awesome, wait staff friendly, great people all around. If we ever get back to Killarney, we will definitely stay there again! Thank you for making our stay so wonderful.

Randles Killarney is a cozy hotel within walking distance to the National Park. After a long day of touring, the sauna, steam room and pool were a delight with the attentive staf. Although it was chilly outside, the hotel lit all the fireplaces to keep us warm. There were many places to cozy up next to the fire. We had the most amazing breakfast server Anna who when she found out we were traveling to Dublin, she asked the chef pack us sandwiches for the trip. They were yummy too! Our only regret is that we didn’t stay longer at this wonderful hotel.

The bed was very comfortable. The room smelled like vomit, the tile in the bathroom was loose, and the shower did not drain. The staff was ok. I had prepaid and when I went to check out she asked me to pay, I told her I prepaid and she insisted I didn’t until I told her I would show her and then she was able to see I prepaid.

Upscale seeming property, but not so great beneath the surface. There were cornflakes on the carpet, and dirty behind nightstands. Then, the water wasn’t hot, parking not easy, and no lamps on the nightstands for reading. And our road-facing room was very noisy. The breakfast was good, but overall, I was disappointed by the hotel. Easy walk into town, however, so that was good. For what I paid, though, I expected better.

The location of this hotel is great, and the food at the restaurant was quite enjoyable. Our room, however, was just okay. Our bathroom had loose tiles on the floor and a mild smell of mildew, old furnishings, and no amenities (coffee or tea would be better than a shoe horn).

Pulling up to the hotel was positive as was the reception desk who checked us in. When we pulled up to the Townhouse we were optimistic. But after opening the door we were greeted with a big stain in the carpet in front of stairs. Overall the carpet throughout was in bad shape. The room was a good size, generally clean, but the bathroom was an issue. Garbage was not emptied and the shower/bath was in serious need to refreshing. The caulking was full of mold and the panels around the tub had water damage. After using the shower, the problem was obvious. Everything leaked, the floor was soaked and water would run down and soak everything. Bed was comfortable, room was quiet. Lastly, we were told we had access to all the hotels facilities — however the hotel was a 5-7 minute walk down the street. So while we could use the facilities, it was impractical to do so. Over promised - Underdelivered.

This property could be so much more with some improvements. A property can remain Victorian with updates. Windows are original single pane so you hear everything. The road outside the hotel is non stop and I mean non stop from 6am to 10pm. Two nights in a row I had to call down to the front desk to ask when the music would be turned off at 11:30pm, our room was above the front outside patio. Then the last day the music started at 7am. I mean come on a reasonable time frame for loud music would be 8am to 10pm. This is national park people are sightseeing all day and are tired when they come back. The bathroom had been updated however there was mold growing in the ceiling that should be addressed soon. No air conditioning and in room heating which is weird for a 4 star hotel. No in room fridge. If they did some updates this hotel could be absolutely amazing. The lobby and restaurant was updated very nicely.

This was an extremely quaint hotel within 1/3 of a mile of the little village of Killarney. Very walkable and very charming when entering the property. We stayed in the suite which was a nice 600 square-foot unit. The only recommendation I would make on it is a new mattress and new carpeting. Otherwise it was a very charming suite. The front desk manager, Justin, was extremely friendly and helpful. He really made our stay even better. We would definitely stay here again.

It's 1:50am while I am writing this review bacuse I can't sleep there is doors between the rooms of the hotel perhaps to use the rooms as suites or twin rooms for families. I am a business travels who stays in hotels 3 to 4 days a week for work. There is 3 chinese guys checked in next door to me who are making noise and laughing and talking at this hour which I can hear clearly through the door between their room and mine. This certainly ruined my night and for sure the day ahead of me. If there are doors between the rooms they should be sound proof. If someone likes to sleep or like their privacy I would not recommend this hotel.

The hotel was beautiful, lots of character and we were upgraded to a suite which was a nice surprise! But the staff really sells the place. Check in and check out were quick and seamless. Billy in the pool area was extremely friendly and gave us plenty of local recommendations and the front of the house staff was welcoming and kind. We enjoyed our stay very much and would definitely return!

Arrived at reception, greeted by Justin on 21st April 2025. We queried the pool and Spa to which Justin disregarded the fact that we had booked the hotel for this amenity. We continued to unpack in the room and discovered the room turn lock not locking, several attempts without success. Furthermore the latch lock was broken. I went to reception and raised the above to which Justin became rude, obnoxious and dismissive. Shane the Bar manager could hear the conversation and intervened. Shane attended the room, noted the safety concerns about the lock and stated it would be changed and fixed in the morning. The next afternoon we arrived back to the room, no locked or latch fixed or any follow up.Upon checkout we raised the concerns with Carolina on reception and she advised that Shelley would attend to us at reception. We waited for 20 minutes to be told she was on a call and you would call my wifes number which was left alongside our booking email. We are a few days later, no follow up yet again.

The Randles Hotel offers excellent elegant accommodations in a lovely setting. The staff were helpful, but unfortunately we were misdirected by hotel staff when leaving the hotel for our bus connection to Cork, then on to Kilkenny. The bus stop near the Plaza Hotel is not the stop for the bus to Cork, which we discovered after standing in the cold rain, then continuing like drowned rats onwards to a taxi and the main bus station, a spectacle witnessed by the Randles senior barman (you can confirm, as he greeted us). It is best for the hotel staff to supply accurate information for ignorant travelers like us.

We loved our stay at the Randles hotel! We stayed in the townhouse in a king room!! Room was new and beautifully decorated. The bed was a little harder than we are used to sleeping on though. The hotel is just a 7 or 8 minute walk from Killarney city center and also close to the starting point for the Ring of Kerry. Highly recomnend!

5-Stars all the way. No plastic anywhere, no paper napkins. Clean white linen instead, and glass eater bottles. Very environmentally conscious. Also very quiet and comfortable in our top level dormer room. The modern radiant heat was silent and efficient, as was simply opening the window when needed. The in-house breakfasts were good, part buffet, part hot order. And dinig there in the evenings was very nice, with excellent, attentive service and great food. Would stay again in the same room in a heartbeat!

It said 4 stars, but we think it deserves 5!
