Enjoy Ireland History at This Hotel

Originally opened as Herbert Arms in 1795, this 5 star Ireland luxury hotel was part of the original Muckross House Estate. Queen Victoria visited Killarney and stayed at Muckross House in 1861 just across the road from the hotel and she took lunch in the hotel on Wednesday August 28th, 1861.

Another notable hotel guest, George Bernard Shaw, spent the summer of 1923 in the hotel writing Pygmalion, popularly known as “My Fair Lady”.

Daniel O' Connell used the hotel to rest and have a glass of 'toddie' during his many journeys from his home in Caherdaniel over the mountains to Kenmare and it was recently discovered that Michael Collins visited the hotel shortly before his fatal shooting at Beal na Blath in 1921.

The current owners Bill Cullen and Jackie Lavin took over the hotel in 1990 and over the years added facilities such as the multi-award winning Molly Darcy's Irish Pub and the Atrium and Abbey Suites which are particularly popular for Irish Weddings in the Park.

Bill and Jackie's 'vision' for a truly world class hotel where 'only the very best will do' has recently been realized with the opening of the newly refurbished and rebuilt Muckross Park Hotel with 68 fabulous new guestrooms, a new 'state of the art' conference and event centre and Irelands most exclusive 'health and well being' centre - the gothic inspired Cloisters Spa.
