Fáilte Lodging Kenmare Town Centre, hotel in Kenmare

Located in Kenmare and with Muckross Abbey reachable within 19 miles, Fáilte Lodging Kenmare Town Centre provides a garden, non-smoking rooms, free WiFi and a shared lounge.

Great location for exploring the Beara Peninsular and Ring of Kerry, it's a tiny town so everything is walking distance. Our host Maureen was hilarious although I'm not sure if she realizes it. Lockup storage for bikes is very handy, and the room was nice and clean.

Looking for a hostel?
Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    The Hostel was in a great location, the staff always very nice and helpful. You could get a simple breakfast (cereals and toast) in the morning, which was great if you wanted to go on a day trip and were in a hurry to leave.

    Great location in the very center of Killarney. I consider the pub downstairs with live music a plus. The bed was really comfortable. Between the key card and attentive staff, I think they take great care of the guests' safety and security.

    Lovely budget accommodation, modern decor, friendly helpful staff, great location. Loved that there was plenty of coffee, tea bags and milk provided and even some biscuits, which was a nice touch.
