A group of us travelled to Killarney recently to go to a GAA match in the town, included in the Group were two men in their 50/60's. Before we even checked in, the owner introduced himself and told us abrubtly that we were not to make any noise between 8pm and 8am! Upon check in he told us we needed... more

We stayed in this guest house after christmas.It is in a very good central location. We got a lovely breakfast in the morning. The bedroom was a good size with a jacuzie bath so overall very comfortable for the price we paid. We did not have an evening meal but we met with guests who said it was very good.... more

I'm a little confused what to say about the Fairview as our first night stay was one of the worst I've ever experienced at a hotel/guest house though this was somewhat redeemed during the rest of our stay. Our flight to Cork had been delayed so we arrived around 1am in the morning and shown to the ground floor room... more

I stayed at this hotel as part of a rail tour of Ireland. I wasn't really sure what to expect from some random B&B picked by a tour company, but this hotel was absolutely lovely! Our room was very confortable and the dining room was really nice. I was a bit caught off guard by the black pudding at breakfast,... more

It was a weekend out after a long time and was very thrilled about it as a good rest was essential. We ewre suprised by the rooms. Front desk staff was just brilliant., Unfortunately, cant's say the same about the restaurant staff, they seemed completely indiferent and it was sad, because the food is just fabilous. Breakfast was nice also,... more

The Fairview Hotel is very centrally located. Upon arrival we were offered an upgrade to an executive room for an extra €10. The room was just amazing - huge bed, huge tv and Jacuzzi bath. We both slept very well. The food was great also and all staff were very pleasant and helpful. Unfortuntely there was no pool or spa... more

This was the nicest Guest house I have ever stayed in I am so surprised at the last negative comment. It is smack in the center- everyting is on your door stop. The rooms are fantastic,clean, and of the highest standard. Breakfast was unreal. You sit down and have an option of a beautiful full irish, omlettes, (many types) continental.... more

We stayed at The Fairview for two nights while touring the Ring of Kerry. Killarney, in general, is a highly commercialized tourist trap, and there are many accomodation options, and while The Fairview was nice, the staff was not, specifically the man who runs the front desk during the day. Also, there is no parking here - instead you park... more

My wife and I checked in for just one night - and we ended up staying four nights! The restaurant inside was terrific...excellent food....and breakfast was even better - you could get anything you wanted for no charge!!! We didn't even need to eat lunch when we stayed here! The rooms were spacious, light, comfortable, and airy. Located in the... more

I stayed here with my family in 2003 and 2006 and could not wait to come back again. This is my favourite place in all of Ireland. Whilst many make mention of the noise on the street .... well you are in City Centre. Like any city centre, and especially in the most popular tourist city in Ireland, you are... more
