    The owner Greta was very helpful and could not do enough for everyone. It was very clean and the choice at breakfast was excellent.

    No complaints; it was amazing and I loved it.

    I had made a special request months earlier that was accommodated upon arrival without even having to ask about it. Breakfast was home cooked and delicious every day. There was a fridge in the house that guests could use which was very valuable to us. (Also it had ice trays with ice in them!!!) Free water bottles each day. These sound like little things, but they were very much appreciated. Greta and her husband were just as wonderful as all the other reviews mentioned. Genuine and lovely. I was very surprised and honored to get to meet Billy during my stay. IYKYK. This was one of the best places I have EVER stayed based on extreme cleanliness and the welcoming atmosphere. It's located in a very quiet neighborhood only a few minutes walk to the busy town where every restaurant is excellent. The ring of Kerry is minutes away by car with stunning views you'll never forget. I could go on and on. If I return to Ireland, I'll definitely spend more time in the Killarney area, and Algret House will be my #1 pick. (Greta, if you read this, please tell Billy I said hi!)

    There was nothing like that.

    Greta was a very lovely and kind host. We really liked her. Nice cosy little room, we had everything what we need :) highly recommended :) Location is good, as city center with couple of pubs is only 10 minutes walk :) Good place to stay if you want to visit Kerry/Dingle peninsula and Killarney National Park.

    Welcome home from Grandma Greta

    Room itself was a bit cramped, especially the bathroom but it was clean and well taken care of. I'd hardly call it a con, just a consideration. Additionally there was no window in the bathroom and the bedroom one only opened a wee bit so in the summer it's a bit warmer but the town itself cools down at night.

    Greta is the star of this property. Welcome home from Grandma is how we were greeted. She clearly takes great pride in seeing to every detail. It's clean and well taken care of. Breakfast was well done and yes the cherry scones she makes are worthy of the reviews. It is on a quiet street and a 10 minute walk to downtown. She was very communicative via this app and incredibly friendly. Our room also had a kettle, tea and coffee, a small desk, two nightstands, a vanity desk and built in wardrobe. We didn't use the tv but there was a small one. There was also a common lounge that doubled as the breakfast dining area. She also provided a small fridge for guests to use which we appreciated.

    It took some time to get the TV to work, but that’s not what makes a BnB, right?

    Greta was so incredibly warm and welcoming! The shared spaces and the room were spotless and clean. The room was spacious, with a decent sized bathroom. The inclusion of a fan for our use was very much appreciated, and the coffee/tea facilities in the room were a nice touch. Walkable to town and VERY quiet neighborhood. Breakfast was outstanding!

    Greta was wonderful! Truly a lovely hostess who clearly cares about her guests and goes out of her way to make you feel comfortable. The room was spacious, and in a great location. Just a few blocks from the city center, which was ideal to avoid the traffic and crowds but easy quick walk into town. Breakfast was great and available hours were very accommodating.

    What a wonderful place. Our room was spacious, well-appointed, and very neat and clean. Our host Greta could not have been more lovely. Breakfast was fabulous with many options. The location, 5 min walk from the National Park and 8 to the high street and all the action but quiet for sleeping. Can't recommend mote highly.

    Greta, the host, is one of the loveliest, kindest people you'll ever have the pleasure to meet! I felt like she was my "Irish nan" for three days. The cooked-to-order breakfast was delicious, and the cherry scones were out of this world! The room was very clean and bright, with a kettle and tea and coffee. The wifi worked well. The location is very quiet, yet only a quick seven-minute walk away from the town center and the bus / train. The town of Killarney is an excellent gateway to southwest Ireland. Three days were not enough, and I'd love to come back for a longer stay.

    Everything is perfect! Spotlessly clean throughout, ample choice of delicious breakfasts - with the most delectable homemade scones (thanks to Greta), a very comfortable bed, en-suite room, a kettle and plenty of refreshments in the room, a usb socket, a very handy shared guest fridge, a bookshelf and information leaflets/guides are available, great location for walking into the town, ample parking, and a very warm welcome from our hosts. Can’t rate this B&B highly enough.
