Reviews of Algret House B&B

H. H.

Stayed here with my partner for our date night in Killarney, and the experience was wonderful! We were greeted with a very warm welcome and shown our room, which was incredibly comfortable.The hostess was very helpful and we booked in for the breakfast the next morning. I had already read reviews about her famous cherry scones and they really lived up to the reputation! Breakfast was very nice, and there was plenty of it! The fresh brewed coffee was excellent too! 11/10, would definitely recommend and will be coming back for sure!

Second time staying here we stayed here for 2 nights this October Bank Holiday weekend ideal location free parking and central to killarney less than 5 minute walk to the town. Greta the host is very welcoming and friendly she couldn't do enough for us. Myself and my boyfriend stayed in room 1 with a lovely mountain view nice spacious room has everything free WiFi, TV, tea and coffee and ensuite with shower. Breakfast both mornings were lovely there's continental and she has a menu with hot food options such as full or mini irish, scrambled, poached eggs and homemade waffles with maple syrup food was delicious and the service was exceptional. We did a hike on our first day and Greta wrapped up homemade cherry scones for our hike we were delighted and ideal for the journey. We will definitely be back again.

Very comfortable stay in a quiet residential neighbourhood, yet only 10min walk from Killarney Town centre. Lovely hostess and hearty breakfast. Special mention to the locally produced milk served!

A. O.

Very comfortable bed, excellent shower, fabulous breakfast. Close to town but still quiet at night. Greta very friendly and the perfect hostess. Amazing value for money. Thanks for a brilliant stay!

A. P.

Fabulous accommodation. Very clean. Greta is lovely, welcoming and warm. Delicious breakfast and great choice. Highly recommend.

A. S.

Fantastic place to stay. The owners are very kind and considerate of travelers who are coming in late and leaving early. The breakfast alone should be a reason to stay here!

M. R.

S. C.

We spent 5 days in Algret house, and it was fantastic time, it is so clean, quite, the location very handy, free parking and breakfast. I highly recommend this property to everyone. The lady really takes care of her guests and she’s very nice and sweet every day. We love spending time there. We felt like in our home. We’re definitely coming back in the future here. Greetings from Dublin. Alicia&Sukru

Place is really nice! Its close to the train station which is great. Our room was really good with amazing view of mountains. We really enjoyed this! Everything is clean and so nice. We had breakfast included which was also excellent. Host is also so nice and helpful. I cannot find anything which is not up tp excellent standard here. Thank you so much for wonderful 4 days!!

We were fortunate to finish our walk of the Beara Way and part of the Kerry Way at Algret House. Greta warmly greeted us upon arrival, and showed us to our spacious and comfortable room. A little off the main road, we were glad to stay at Algret House which is ideally situated for accessing downtown while also providing peace and quiet at nighttime. Breakfast in the morning was fantastic.

D. G.

Greta is awesome! She is sweet and fun. The beds are good. Rooms are super clean. And the breakfast is over the top! Great service with a smile. She makes sure you are served well. She made homemade scones for breakfast that were to die for! Really enjoyed! Would definitely stay there again. The only drawn back would be, you could hear noise from other room. But in a full B&B, could be expected. Definitely worth it.

J. C.

Nice accomodation with comfortable beds and spacious room. Our host could not be more friendly and helpful and made a wonderful breakfast. You should not check out without trying her homemade scones!

G. B.

My sisters and I spent 3 days at Algret House in August, 2015. We loved every moment with Ms. Greta! The rooms are just right; very clean with comfy beds, enough walking space, plenty of bedding/blankets, and enough storage for luggage. The breakfasts were my favorite during our 11 trip to Ireland! (Ms. Greta also serves Barry's Tea, my favorite Irish tea!) My husband and I will be returning guests this summer because of the excellent experience we enjoyed at Algret House! We look forward to seeing you Greta!

M. L.

Great location! The Algret House is on a quiet street yet only a 5 minute walk to the center of town. The room was cozy and clean and I slept great! Greta was so helpful with my travels and also made some incredible scones. The breakfast that her husband Gordon cooked was the best I had during my entire vacation. I highly recommend this B&B!

C. C.

My wife and I really enjoyed staying here! The room was wonderful and the location is perfect. Gretta was a one of the best hostess's that we have ever met. The staff made our breakfast a very memorable time. We highly recommend this bed and breakfast as it is a must to the Ireland experience.

L. S.

PROS: Wow! This exceeded every possible expectation we might have had. Mrs. Greta was extremely kind and helpful. She made us feel welcome and at home. The rooms and the facilities in general were very well organised, clean and comfortable. We had everything we could have asked for and more. Our room was spacious and comfortable, we even had a good view! Breakfast was superb! Oh, the scones. I'll be thinking of them for days to come. Thank you Mrs. Greta, you were a wonderful host. CONS: None at all!!

H. A.

We had a great time at Algret House. Greta was very kind and gave us great tips on our tour of the Ring of Kerry, and Alfred cooked a fantastic breakfast. The house is just 5 min away from the city center, very clean and tidy.

D. L.

The host was incredible. We had rented a mobile wifi broadcaster for our phones to connect to and it didn't work. When the host saw us struggling she gave us a road map of Ireland. We used it for the remainder of the trip to navigate the country and make it to all of our destinations. Biggest of thanks to the folks running this B&B, you helped make our trip to Ireland a real adventure.

J. W.

Al and Greta themselves make this stay worthwhile even with the great breakfast and convenient location. It felt like a home away from home. We will recommend a stay at Algret House with our friends who are planning a visit to Ireland.

T. A.

Excellent B&B, clean and fair priced family room. Close to city center, extremely friendly. Greta & Alfred are doing a great job. Homemade scones for breakfast and different other options eg waffles, porridge, full Irish...

D. G.

Great location. Greta is friendly and the rooms are sparkling clean and comfortable. Also breakfast choices are great for starting out a busy day of site seeing. 5+ in our book..

A. N.

What a lovely place, we stayed here last September and loved it so much we plan on staying again this October! Killarney was our favorite part of our country-wide tour last year and Greta and her biscuits were most certainly one of the highlights!

J. A.

This is a great place to stay, close (within a brief walk) to the heart of downtown. The proprietor is a very positive, helpful, wonderful soul! The breakfast was quite enjoyable, and the rooms were incredibly clean. We stayed for two nights.

M. U.

Good location, very friendly proprietor, comfy room, great breakfast, private parking

Such a warm welcome, spotlessly clean with great food. It's also a 5 minute walk from the centre, which makes it near enough but lovely and quiet for a good nights sleep. Would definitely recommend this place, it's great.

J. S.

I would give 6 stars if possible. Greta’s B&B should be held up as the perfect example of an Irish B&B. If you plan on staying in Killarney, definitely book at the Algret house. Don’t forget to try Greta’s amazing scones.

J. W.

Very nice and clean B&B. Walking distance to downtown. Greta and husband very nice couple who pamper their guests. Thank you. Jim & Helen.

(Translated) It's a must visit when visiting Killarney. The kindness of Greta and her husband make us feel like "at home".

Une merveilleuse adresse.

A. D. F.

(Translated) Clean and functional, a stone's throw from the center so that the car stays in the parking lot if you decide to drink some Guinness in the beautiful pubs of the village. The owners are really courteous and helpful, and even more so, than the already tall Irish media. You will find yourself very, very well. (Original) Pulito e funzionale, a due passi dal centro così che l'auto resta nel parcheggio interno se si decide di bere qualche Guinness nei bellissimi pub del paese. I proprietari sono veramente cortesi e disponibili come, e anche più, della già alta media irlandese. Vi troverete molto, molto bene.
