    Staff on arrival was unbelievably unfriendly. We wanted to spend the evening and have dinner but due to the abysmal welcome we put our bags in the room and went out. Next morning girl who served breakfast was wonderful

    Comfortable, well located. Nicely decorated . Good breakfast

    I was very happy with my experience at Davitt's guesthouse! David and Brian were both excellent hosts, and were extremely helpful, even accommodating me for a second night when I realized I'd need another day to hike Killarney NP and drive the Ring of Kerry! The full Irish breakfast was delicious and I enjoyed chatting with David and Brian about my travels and their family-run business. A charming B&B/restaurant in the charming town of Kenmare!

    David and staff went above and beyond to assist us. They not only provided clean rooms and an excellent centralized location, but they also were spot on with recommendations of places to go, pubs to frequent, where to shop, and the like. We will definitely be returning the next time we are in Kenmare.

    Absolutely nothing negative

    Room and common areas were spotless, bed was very comfy so got a good night's sleep. Most important for us was secure parking at the rear of the building, we don't like leaving the motorbike on the street. Had an evening meal and breakfast in the guest house both were excellent especially the breakfast of butter nut squash on sour dough bread with pesto, spinach and feta cheese topped off with two poached eggs on top.. delicious......... Will definitely be calling again. Many thanks David.. Kind regards Clive and Clare

Everything smells very good and clean. Everything is very clean. The room was huge and the bed extra comfortable. We thought we were in 5 star hotel.

    In a great position on the Main Street , was a little tricky as very busy when arriving so had to park on another street and walk with bags , luckily weather was dry. Staff were lovely. Room spacious. Perhaps a little dated for some but was great for us. Breakfast was lovely too, although wine in the bar was a little expensive, had a Lovely little stay

    Erm…. (Tumbleweed blows by, not a single thing comes to mind)

    Central, free parking directly outside, amazing staff so friendly and welcoming, this place really was the best in so many ways. We asked for a recommendation from Jack’s bar in Glengarriff and he sent us to Davitts- so glad I asked as it was spot on and exactly as ‘Jack’ described. Food is top notch, melt in the mouth and plentiful. Rooms are spacious clean and comfortable.

    A small complaint that a desk person was sometimes not there. Sometimes a one person operation. The tub shower could use a grab bar.
