Guest reviews for Great Southern Killarney

3 out of 5

Great location but no wifi and difficult to access

Pros: Close restaurants, Quiet, friendly
Cons: No free Internet, not enough keys, wifi only in lobby
My family stayed in one of the self-catering houses at The Malton. The home was wonderful, clean and had everything we need. When you get off the train station, the Malton is the first place you see. It's easy to walk in town or hop on a train to explore other parts of the region. It was also quiet and comfortable. The only negatives is that wifi was only available in the hotel lobby. Making it more difficult, the homes were only given two keys to enter the self-catering section of the hotel. That would be fine, only you can't exit either! So if some of the group wanted to go ahead to access internet/breakfast, you couldn't bc you had to wait for the whole group. Same with going out -- you had to all go together, bc there was no way to get back into the complex and knock on the home's door.
