Our room was immaculate. It was comfortable, large and it even had a Christmas tree. In fact the entire hotel was decorated for Christmas. We thoroughly enjoyed our night there and wish we had been able to stay longer. The local folks playing traditional Irish music in the bar was the highlight of our trip.

I thought this hotel was perfectly placed in Kenmare. It is a very nice and cozy property with very firendly and helpful staff. They reached out to me ahead of time to ask if I needed a dining reservation and procured a table at the best place in town.

The hotel was fantastic - very clean, right on the main road with all the shops. Staff were fantastic. We left an item, sent and e-mail to them explaining what was left and they sent it to us via post. Cannot say enough good things about the Lansdowne Kenmare.

This hotel is a gem. The rooms are beautiful and the location is perfect. Easy to park on-site, or nearby. The bed and pillows are top notch and luxurious. The hotel amenities (restaurant, bars, cafe) are high quality and serve delicious food. The staff are friendly, welcoming and helpful. We are very glad we chose to stay here and definitely recommend it.

Enjoyed our night at tge Lansdowne Hotel
A lovely hotel with character, comfortable sitting areas, a nice morning breakfast room, bar and lounge area. No elevators but staff was willing to help carry bags if needed. Rooms were clean and nice, on the smaller side but comfortable. The hotel is nicely located.

Amazing staff. Decor in hotel is very stylish except for bedrooms. Although they were comfortable, the record was very bland and lacked luxury. For that reason, I would not return. Breakfast to the room was amazing . Again, the staff are real stars of the show. A beautiful Kerry welcome.

Very enjoyable stay at the Lansdowne. Room was comfortable, very clean, and very quiet even though we were right beside the street on the ground floor. The bar was very cozy, and had great live music both nights. Highly recommend.

This is such a gem! Cute boutique style hotel that kept is charm but has been updated in the past 5 years (i think 2021) and it is beautiful. Staff is so helpful and pointed out great stores, restaurants, and pubs. They are on the corner of the walkable shopping district (so not in the chaos but easy to go have fun) and only a 5 minute walk to a lovely little park with walking trail. Surprised how much i feel in love with this place.
