"Breakfast didn't start until 8am and sadly I had to be at work for that time. Otherwise it was a great experience."

"great place"

"This is an excellent place to experience and explore the natural beauty that surrounds you in this part of Ireland. Jenn and her staff are experienced professionals who are also world travelers and who understand the grace notes of hospitality. A beautiful, well tended garden greats you when you park in the spacious driveway, complete with electric car charger. You are greeted by a chocolate lab, an adorable corgi and your host upon your agreed upon arrival time. This first thing that struck me was how absolutely perfectly peaceful everything was. The home is brilliantly designed with guest comfort in mind with fully stocked tea rooms throughout that offer a private space for a relaxing break after a busy day of hiking, jaunting, boating or horseback riding. The Beaufort Pub is an 8 minute walk down the road and offers an excellent pint, great local color and conversation along with spirited dart games. Further up the road is another delightful experience of Irish history at Kate Kearney’s Cottage. Excellent food, great service and a comfortable pub atmosphere greets you at Kate’s. This is an excellent place to stop before or after your exploration of the Gap of Dunloe, The Black Valley and/or the Lakes of Killarney. Hop into a horse driven cart at Kate’s or walk up the road for a day filled with adventure, ending in Killarney National Park with a boat ride through the Lakes to Ross Castle. Talk to Jenn about local activities, she is an expert on this area."

"Loved the Ballyroe, great location travelling through Co. Kerry and Tralee. Amazing views from the hotel, lots of parking and a great included breakfast! Rooms were large and had everything you need, comfy beds and clean bathrooms and very quiet in the area! We usually need AC in our rooms but it was comfortable all the same and highly recommend. "

"Fantastic breakfast with many options. Paul and Annette were superb hosts and went out of their way to be helpful. Room was beautiful and property is gorgeous. "

"I really enjoyed the breakfast and the in house bar. The room was charming and slightly dated, but no big deal. The staff were excellent and delightful. My big complaint was that this hotel is next to a church. And in the AM the bells rang out at 3 different times. I know the hotel can't fix this, but it might have been better if it wasnt a surprise."

"While vintage in appearance, the Grand Hotel looks impeccable and very clean. The staff was very helpful and friendly. While we did not have the available hot breakfast, we chose the fresh fruit, yogurt, cereals and out of the oven, delicious scones. Highly recommended. "

"Our check-in experience was wonderful. The receptionist greeted us warmly and helped to set up a dinner reservation for us. She relayed all the information about the premises and guided us to our room. Our room had a beautiful view onto the sea. Our beds and carpet were clean. The toilet in the bathroom was dirty, the seat lid would not stay up and hit you in the back when using it, and the tank leaked. The shower is very small. The common areas in the lodge appeared to be used by guests and family members and had many personal items spread about. I wouldn’t advise anyone against staying here, but just know what you’re getting."

"It was a beautiful hotel and wonderful staff, but the first picture on Expedia we thought was the hotel and it wasn't."
