Overview
Killarney Towers Hotel & Leisure Centre is a 4-star hotel located on College Street in the heart of Killarney town, part of the family-owned O'Donoghue Ring Collection. The hotel offers 182 contemporary guestrooms alongside a recently refurbished leisure centre, two in-house dining venues, and a pair of pubs loved by locals and visitors alike.
Its location puts guests directly on one of Killarney's liveliest streets, surrounded by the town's best-known restaurants, traditional music pubs, and shops, all within a short walk of St Mary's Cathedral and the gateway to Killarney National Park. This is one of the best-positioned hotels in town for those who want to be right in the middle of the action.

What You'll See
Rooms come in a range of categories including Classic King, Double, Twin, Triple, Family, Urban Double, and Accessible rooms. Every room includes air conditioning, a Jacuzzi bath, Handmade Soap Company toiletries, flat-screen TV, free Wi-Fi, and tea and coffee facilities.
The on-site Innisfallen Restaurant serves breakfast and dinner using fresh local ingredients. The hotel is also home to O'Donoghue's Public House, which has live music seven nights a week during the season, and Pig's Lane with weekend performances. The recently refurbished Leisure Centre includes a 15-metre swimming pool, whirlpool, sauna, steam room, and a fully equipped gym - complimentary for guests.
Visitor Essentials
Due to the town-centre location, the hotel does not have extensive on-site parking - a public car park adjacent to the property is available for a modest daily fee, free between 6:00pm and 8:00am Monday through Saturday, and free on Sundays and bank holidays.
Tips
Urban Double Rooms sit above the hotel's nightlife venues - fine for guests who plan to be out late themselves, but light sleepers should request a room on a higher floor or away from College Street. Book family rooms well in advance during peak season, as these fill quickly.
The hotel concierge can arrange golf tee times on Kerry's championship courses, fishing, horseback riding, and hill walking - a time-saving option for those planning a multi-activity Kerry visit. The leisure centre is a welcome facility after a long day's hiking or touring, particularly in cooler months.
