Disliked: Amenities
Foley‘s in convenient if you are looking to walk around Kenmare and enjoy all the town sights. But we did not like the scent our room - with clearly visible air fresheners. It was overwhelming and not enjoyable and made us wonder what scent was being covered up. Breakfast was included and our party agreed the food was abundant but not particular tasty. We would pass on a repeat visit.
Great location in the middle of town. Convenient parking right outside the door.

Disliked: Staff & service
Service in bar and restaurant not good. Staff continued to speak to either each other or ignored us. Food only ok, nothing to write home about.
Gap in bedroom door when closed, music loud. Overall we would NOT go back there.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
It was a very loud place. I didn’t realize there would be a band playing below our room. It was very difficult to sleep. Breakfast was wonderful.
My first time in Kenmare. The town was great and it was a good call to stay here as opposed to the more touristy town of Killarney. Easy access to the Ring of Kerry, good restaurant and bar at the hotel, live music and rooms were clean. The next time I'm in the area I would stay in this town and this hotel.
