"The rooms are lovely and the area is really nice would definitely stay again. Couldnt figure out how to get hot water in the shower. Twice people were giving a card to our rooms by mistake and we had to tell them to go back downstairs and explain the mistake so key card distribution needs to be worked on."

"We came to Kilkea to celebrate our anniversary and could not have been more pleased! From the moment we walked through the castle doors, the staff was gracious and friendly. Everyone remembered our names…so it certainly had a Cheers from Boston vibe! From the front desk, the spa, the dining, the historical grounds, and bartenders at The Keep, what more could we have asked for. We can’t wait to be back! "
