Does Killarney have the highest concentration of hotels in Ireland? With more than two dozen for a population of around 15,000, by my calculations, it certainly can’t be far off.
While names like The Great Southern, Gleneagle and Killarney Park are well-known, Cahernane House bills itself as “Killarney’s best-kept secret”. Built in 1877, this is the town’s only manor house-style hotel, and it has been upgrading in recent years — redoing rooms, restaurants and adding a lovely suite of Coach House stays thanks to a €7.8m spend by owners, the Prem Group.
