ACCOMMODATION REVIEW
Killeen House Hotel is the ultimate choice of accommodation for the avid golfer visiting the Killarney region and playing the great courses of the southwest. Built in 1838 as a rectory for Archdeacon Nathienal Forester, before becoming the charming hotel that is today, the Killeen House saw service as a farmhouse, a dower house, an old folks home and a maternity home. The word Killeen, by the way, is a common enough Irish place name and surname and literally means a "site of a holy place". The owners, Geraldine and Michael Rosney acquired the Killen House Hotel in 1992 and have transformed it into an unrivalled golfer's haven.

Surrounded by mature gardens, the Killeen House is a ten-minute drive from downtown Killarney and is also an ideal base from which to explore the broader places of interest in the region - Killarney National Park, Torc Waterfall, Gap of Dunloe, Ring of Kerry - we could go on! Each of the 23 bedrooms provide the utmost in comfort, while 8 of the older rooms, called "championship" rooms, are extra spacious and exceptionally classy. The restaurant offers one of the finest dining experiences in Killarney and serves stupendous cuisine in a unique atmosphere.

And now to the pub - we can only try to do it justice. This is probably the only pub in the world that accepts golf balls as legal tender and literally thousands of them, from clubs all around the world, line the walls of the pub. If you have never pulled a pint of Guinness, then this is the place for you. Guests are actively encouraged to go behind the bar and practice a unique type of DIY. As a matter of interest, the answer to the question "when does the pub close?" is "around the middle of November". So if you're coming here, then bring a ball from your club, enjoy a pint on the house and be forever part of the golfing history of Killeen House Hotel.
