Arbutus Hotel address: College Street, Killarney

Arbutus Hotel details: This welcoming hotel is located in the heart of vibrant Killarney, yet has the relaxed atmosphere of a quiet country manor.

The Arbutus is one of Killarney's original hotels, operated by the Buckley family, whose unmistakable approach to hospitality is evident throughout. Conveniently situated in the centre of the charming and bustling town of Killarney, The Arbutus Hotel brings with it the calm and restful ambience that travellers hope to find. You can enjoy top quality care and individual attention from the friendly and experienced staff. Unwind in the hotel’s award winning bar, enjoy a fine pint and partake in some true Kerry 'craic', highly recommended by many previous guests.

Swimming with Fungi the dolphin, visiting Bill Clinton's favourite golf course and walking amongst ancient oaks - Kerry has it all. Old coach roads, mountain paths, beaches and hundreds of kilometres of way marked walks, making Kerry a walker's paradise.

Food is an integral part of Arbutus hospitality, whether it's a quick bite or a full dinner. Buckley's Bar menu offers a casual, but wholesome meal, or you can experience hospitality, Norrie Buckley style. Her home cooking is well known among guests and locals, with her rice pudding and her chicken paté being particular favourites.

Norrie's cooking blends traditional Irish and international recipes, made with the freshest of local, seasonal produce. If you have any special dietary needs, or indeed any special dishes you would like to try, don't hesitate to ask.

I recently stayed at the Arbutus for approximately 1 week. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience there. I did have a room which i found too hot and they promptly put me in another one which was perfect. Breakfasts were delicious...the best omelletes I've ever had. Betty and the other staff in the dining room were just lovely. Michelle at reception was also extremely helpful and went out of her way to make my stay a very pleasant experience. The lounge area was perfect to relax in with the most amazing old furniture. Location was perfect...right in the middle of town. I enjoyed my time there very much.
