Bridge Street Townhouse, hotel in Kenmare

Bridge Street Townhouse offers accommodations in Kenmare, 19 miles from Muckross Abbey and 19 miles from INEC.

Lovely, comfortable guest rooms in an adorable townhouse. The host treated us warmly, gave great local recommendations, and made us feel at home in the super cute breakfast room with coffee/tea available 24/7. Our rooms were perfectly quiet and decorated with unique art and local ceramics. The bathrooms were clean with nice, hot showers. Breakfast was fabulous. I especially loved the buttery pancakes and perfectly cooked eggs. Easily found street parking. The location was perfect for strolling around the adorable town center. Only wish we could have stayed longer.

    Kenmare is a charming, small Irish town.

    Kenmare is a charming, small Irish town. We loved walking through the streets with many shops, pubs and restaurants. Both Holy Cross and St. Patrick's churches are worth a visit. Kenmare is a perfect base for driving the Ring of Kerry and visiting Killarney National Park. We had a fabulous dinner at The Coachman's pub, sitting outside on a pleasant October evening but there are many other dining options too.

    Great base for both the Ring of Kerry and the Ring of Beara.

    Great base for both the Ring of Kerry and the Ring of Beara. Many restaurants but several were fully booked. Live music in a few even on weeknights. Free parking and toilets across from the church.

    Everything about this stay was perfect. Bernadette and her husband were extremely welcoming and gave us a lot of information and tips about getting around Ireland and Kenmare. The cottage is absolutely beautiful and so comfortable! It’s full of little details that make all the difference. It is also only a quick walk into the town centre. Our hosts were very accommodating of our dietary requirements and went above and beyond to provide a delicious vegan breakfast which was served in a beautiful conservatory. We both loved this stay!

    It is a spacious accommodation in a quiet location a short walk from Kenmare town centre. Nick and Dólan keep it spotless clean and care for all needs, they are very helpful and really, really nice guys with a good sense of humour. As we were on the road all day, we had too less time to chat with them unfortunately. Nick provided us with information about what to do on Beara Peninsula etc. The bed is super comfy and there’s a back terrace facing River Sheen. We definitely recommend the Kingfisher Riverside Retreat.

    We had an amazing visit. My husband and our grown daughters and sons -in- law stayed for two nights. Trish was incredibly helpful, providing local insight for day trips, restaurants, music etc. We loved sitting outside in the sun on the grass/ patio , after a long day of sightseeing. We would definitely stay here again, and would recommend it to family and friends. Terrific location- very close to downtown Kenmare, but also extremely convenient for Killarney National Park. We made a great choice.

    We were in Ireland for 20 days so we wanted a variety of experiences. We chose this location because it gave us a chance to be alone for a while. No hotels, or B&Bs. It was a great place to recharge the batteries. Nearby places in Kenmare to buy food so it was easy making meals. Very quiet and peaceful location. Outstanding views. There is a golf course close by, but don't recall if it's open to non-members. Just off the Ring of Kerry with easy access to the ring.

    The location was superb. Less than a five minute walk from the town centre. The Creamy Cottage is spotlessly clean and very well equipped. The beds were very comfortable and there were plenty of clean, fresh towels. We parked our car safely at the side of the house. Kenmare itself is a lovely little town, consisting of two main streets with plenty of pubs, restaurants and cafes Overall, myself, my wife and our two sons had a very satisfying short break.

    The Park Hotel is a fantastic retreat for a short getaway with delicious food, a relaxing spa, piano lounge, golf, and beautiful walks around the grounds of this historic hotel. A special mention for the staff who were courteous and friendly but never overwhelming. Free tea and carrot cake in the afternoon, exactly the tonic after a long walk. We also had a free electric charge point at our disposal, so the little things really do help!

    The apartment was lovely cosy and clean. It has everything you need for a comfortable stay and was well set up for self catering with family. We had a highchair and cot set up for us when we arrived which was so appreciated. Loads of space in the bedrooms too. The welcome was typically Irish and friendly. Kenmare is such a lovely town also. Great stay, thank you!

    The Laburnum B&B in the charming town of Kenmare was perfect for our needs. The breakfast food was excellent. Our rooms were very clean and well stocked with towels, tea & coffee. We would have liked to stay for a month. Our hosts were very gracious and accommodating. The town of Kenmare is an easy 10 minute walk. We would give this B&B a 5 star rating

    The property is located within 5 min walking distance from the center of the town of Kenmare. The room had a very nice view over the well taken care of garden. The host is very welcoming, friendly and nice. She gave us good tips about landscapes in the area and places to have good food. The internal design was very nice and everything was neat.

    The location was just outside of the the main strip of Kenmare so it was nice and quiet and just a 10 minute walk to town. The host is excellent she was so warm and inviting and she gave me excellent suggestions especially when my travel plans changed because of weather. The breakfast was excellent with plenty of options to choose from.
