Charlie Foleys Bar and Accomodation

This place was lovely. I'm glad I stopped in for lunch. I had their salt and chilli chicken and a Guinness. The food was brought out to me quickly and very fresh. The chicken with the garlic mayo was great, it was just what I needed for lunch. My server was amazing and got me everything I needed quickly. The atmosphere was cozy inside and I just love getting to sit outside when the weather permits. This is a great place to eat in Killarney.

We came by for some drinks but it seemed that some of the lines might need cleaning. All of our beers had some skunk to it and tasted different than other places. No issues otherwise and it was a fun place to visit. I don’t think they deserve a bad rating for that so we might try it again in a few days.

Ciao ragazzi, We were in there like swimwear and enjoyed some italian blondes and irish darks. Live music was great but we left as soon as it started. Piacere!

One of the best bars in town. The atmosphere is great and the newly refurbishment bar looks fantastic, particularly the snug. The service is always brilliant too, you can't beat it.

⭐ *1 Star – Disgraceful Treatment by Staff. Absolutely Do Not Recommend.* I would give zero stars if I could. I have never in my life been treated with such arrogance, hostility, and outright disrespect by a hotel employee – let alone at a place I booked and pre-paid to stay in. I booked a single room and clearly selected the ‘late check-in’ option, as I knew I’d be arriving later than usual due to transport connections. On arrival that evening, I was completely calm, respectful, and entirely sober – despite having had three drinks earlier in the evening, which any adult is entitled to. To my shock, the man at the front desk /bar who I assume was a manager – took one look at me and flatly refused to let me check in. His exact words were “You've had too much" There’s no way you’re going upstairs here tonight.” I was stunned. I was polite, firm, and even explained that I’d arranged the late check-in in advance. His response was nothing short of disgusting. To make matters worse, he tried to claim that check-in was only between 2 and 5pm – a laughable excuse considering I had already declared a late arrival and had paid in full for the room. When I asked for a refund, I was met with indifference. I had to fight to even get him to verbally confirm I would be refunded. €100 for single occupancy room above a loud pub...I’m still chasing that refund to this day. As if this humiliation wasn’t enough, he also questioned whether I intended to sneak a second guest into the room – simply because a friend happened to walk in with me. I had booked the room for one person. I told him that. Yet he made underhanded accusations and implied I was trying to cheat the system. It was degrading, insulting, and completely baseless. Because of this man’s attitude, I was left stranded that night with nowhere to stay, during a time when everything nearby was booked out and I couldn’t afford alternative accommodation. I was left with no choice but to call someone for help late at night, which not only put me in a vulnerable position, but could have easily led to a much more serious outcome if I hadn’t had that option. The lack of care or duty of care from this hotel is appalling. A woman travelling alone, If anything had happened to me that night, it would have been directly on this hotel and that man. I won’t hesitate to say that. I travel regularly and I’ve never experienced anything this outrageous. This wasn’t a misunderstanding. This was judgmental, aggressive behaviour from a man who should never be allowed near a front desk or any form of customer service. To anyone considering staying here: don’t. This one staff member not only was unprofessional – he is downright dangerous in how he treats guests. I felt unsafe, ashamed, powerless and basically ruined my business weekend! Avoid this place at all costs.
