Lots of character but the downside of an authentic old hotel is no elevators... Be sure to ask for help with luggage, there are lots of stairs. Bar menu was great, the local salmon took for ever to arrive but sooo worth the wait. Central location but you really don't need to leave the hotel for great food. Park outside... More

Once again I can say nothing more about this excellent hotel. From the moment you arrive until you leave your every wish is answered. The staff are 5*+, the food excellent with plenty of variety and all locally resourced. The rooms are well maintained and offer comfort at its best.The management take a keen interest in what is going on... More

The hotel is in a great location in Tralee & it was really good value for money, The room was very clean & staff helpful. Have to say the breakfast was on of the best I have ever had so overall would have no problem to recommend this hotel.

Stayed here last night for 1 night while on business. The hotel was recommended due its location, when I stay in towns around Ireland, I like to stay in the heart of the town so I can wander about. The grand is perfect, right in the heart of it. The hotel has no parking, so it's on street, pain in... More

Great value hotel in centre of town close to shops, Bars & Restaurants with excellent staff and clean rooms and the full Irish breakfast must be the best in the country.Parking is on street but if you wait until after 6pm is easy enough.If you fancy a walk there is lovely Rose filled Park 2 mins away

Stayed at this hotel very recently and I was most impressed with this little gem. From beginning to end it was a pleasent experience. Reception area and staff are welcoming as were some of the breakfast staff, a special mention Re: Mari the (new girl) who was ever so friendly, it is a shame to have her hidden away in... More

Was fantastic great service great food couldn't ask for better and great location the staff was so friendly and helpful the bar was a nice place to get a pint down you, the rooms were warm and cosy nice place to be, only problem I found the bed was a bit to hard! But other from that was good!

I and six members of my family stayed at the hotel for a family reunion in April 2013. The bedrooms are very clean and of decent size, with very comfortable beds and choice of three types of pillow - hard, medium, and down. The bar is a jewel, beautifully decorated in dark wood. The bar staff were wonderful, (as were... More

Changed my booking to this hotel after reading recent reviews of the Abbeygate. Definitely the right decision. Lovely hotel, even though there is some refurbishment going on. Excellent location as well. No parking in the immediate vicinity but there was free parking in a local car park about 500 yards away, (the hotel give you a card to place on... More
