From the moment we walked into the hotel we knew we were going to love it there. It oozes quality and charm. We were greeted with a big Irish welcome and nothing was too much trouble for the staff. Our room was gorgeous and the bed, huge and very comfortable. The food - both dinner and breakfast - was exceptional. Would highly recommend.

I traveled around Ireland for two weeks and stayed in several cities. Kenmare was one of my favorites for shopping, access to music, scenery and the BEST lodging and restaurant at Brooklane. Highly recommend both!

Kenmare is a charming, small Irish town.
Kenmare is a charming, small Irish town. We loved walking through the streets with many shops, pubs and restaurants. Both Holy Cross and St. Patrick's churches are worth a visit.
Kenmare is a perfect base for driving the Ring of Kerry and visiting Killarney National Park.
We had a fabulous dinner at The Coachman's pub, sitting outside on a pleasant October evening but there are many other dining options too.

A lovely town which was close to our B&b.
A lovely town which was close to our B&b. Lovely pubs with live music each night and excellent food. Lots of cafes and some git shops too. Beautiful sites to explore in the area like Killarney great park and the gap of dunloe to name but a few. There are stunning mountain views , peninsulas and rivers . A wonderful visit.
A very warm welcome on our arrival from Lucy the owner who always had time for a chat. Situated in the town centre it is close to the shops, restaurants and bars and it is a good base for touring the local area.
Our room was spacious and warm and our bed was very comfortable.
Breakfast was fabulous with the American Style Pancakes and Eggs Benedict the best we ever had.
We had a lovely time in Kenmare despite the bad weather and we look forward to returning an we will definitely stay with Lucy again.
We had an amazing visit. My husband and our grown daughters and sons -in- law stayed for two nights. Trish was incredibly helpful, providing local insight for day trips, restaurants, music etc. We loved sitting outside in the sun on the grass/ patio , after a long day of sightseeing. We would definitely stay here again, and would recommend it to family and friends. Terrific location- very close to downtown Kenmare, but also extremely convenient for Killarney National Park. We made a great choice.
The location could not have been better. Central to everything in the town. The accommodation looks brand new. The rooms are directly above the restaurant. The restaurant's food was on par with any fine dining establishment I've ever eaten at in Dublin. The owner / chef could not have been more helpful or nice. He referred us to another restaurant in town the night he was closed and his recommendation was top notch as well. This is the only place to stay and to eat in Kenmare.
Eileen is a wonderful hostess. Welcome is second to none..lovely tray of tea and biscuits on arrival. Plenty of tea and coffee in the room. Excellent WiFi.Beautiful garden to sit out in and a lovely comfortable lounge for guests as an alternative,Eileen has plenty of local knowledge of the area and facilities so she is very good to give pointers. The breakfast is 5 stars including fresh fruit salad and she even offered us a lift in her car to Kenmare Town for dinner.
From the very first meeting of the host Patricia we felt so comfortable and welcomed! The BnB was very cosy and super clean and quiet, room had everything you need, bed super comfy. Breakfast was delicious, a wide variety of food to offer, Patricia was very accommodating. Just a short walk into Kenmare town centre, which was very safe to walk. Definitely coming back for another stay it really felt like a home away from home :-) thank you too Patricia and staff!
Absolutely everything! Trish was so welcoming! The room was sparkling clean, so comfortable, beautifully decorated and just a short walk into town. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful! Pancakes were stellar! Best shower in Ireland! I took all of Trish’s recommendations and they were all fabulous. I’d love to stay again the next time I have the pleasure of being in Kenmare.
Breakfast was delicious, waterfront & river location is beautiful, welcome drink and personal check in service was wonderful, courtesy car in/out to Kenmare was great. Kenmare itself was a lovely little town. The artwork in the hotel was really interesting. Public areas beautifully appointed. Room was spacious and quiet with little balcony overlooking the falls. Delightful.
location is perfect - a quiet street just off the center of Kenmare. the apartment was sunny and spacious for 2 - would be fine for a third as well. We didn’t meet the owner as entry was by code. a discount was offered in the restaurant below and the staff there was very helpful and friendly t plus the breakfasts and lunches were great!
The house was very easy to find with plenty of parking outside. The property was very comfortable and the comms from the hosts were first class. It’s only a ten minute walk into Kenmare town centre and there’s a good sized shop at the petrol station 5 minutes away.
We would definitely stay at this property again.
Kathleen recommended two EXCELLENT restaurants for our two dinners, both within walking distance. Kenmare is a charming town, much less congested than Killarney, and we were able to head out early on the Ring of Kerry and miss the tour bus crowds. Although close to town, the property is very quiet.
As a group of friends getting away for a few days this house was exactly what we wanted. Lots of space, very comfortable and had everything you could need. Lovely isolated location but equally near enough to Kenmare and Sneen. With a pub next door sure what more would you want!
Exceptional stay. Irma is a friendly & very accommodating host.
Comfortable, well appointed rooms. Breakfast was A1: nice choose, great quality with fresh & home made produce.
7 min walk to Kenmare town centre. A real gem, will stay again!!
Family centred hotel - very friendly and welcoming towards children. Pool was large and suitable for children of all ages.
Close to town via a path. However the path was quite isolated after dark.
Friendly and helpful staff.
A lovely boutique hotel in a great location - a short walk to the town centre.
Breakfast was good - we had an evening meal in the restaurant which was excellent though perhaps a little pricy.
Such a great property felt like our own flat in the heart of this beautiful town on Kenmare.
Definitely encourage people to go downstairs for the best coffee and brunch experience ever!
Very nice and welcoming hosts, and of course - Dirk the dachshund was a star. Breakfast was generous and tasty. Views of Kenmare were amazing and the hotel is a 5 min drive to town.
The owner is wonderful. She runs an exceptional B&B. Clean, we'll decorated, comfortable beds. She makes a mean Egg's Benedict! Kenmare is a beautiful town!
