About

This superior four-star hotel is among the best in Ireland and is based in the jewel in the crown of Irish Tourism, Killaney in Co. Kerry. Part of The Gleneagle Group, The Brehon opened in 2004 on grounds adjacent to the INEC Arena, overlooking Killarney National Park. The design and decorative inspiration came from its spectacular setting. The classical detailing of Muckross House inspired the exterior, while inside, the dappled light and rich green hues of Killarney’s ancient oak forests instill a sense of calm. Danú Restaurant at The Brehon has been awarded two AA Rosettes for food while the hotel itself has won numerous national and international awards and is consistently rated among Ireland’s top hotels. Its many features include free onsite parking, high speed wifi throughout the hotel and the luxurious Angsana Spa. The Angsana therapists have trained in Thailand’s renowned Banyan Tree Spa Academy. The Brehon has made accessibility one of our key guest services and are one of the first hotels in the world to be accredited with the ENAT (European Network for Accessible Tourism) World Access for All certifications reaching Silver standard.
