Would absolutely stay again. This is a beautiful private house that rents rooms and has a great breakfast. The staff is fantastically friendly and helpful. The breakfast is not only a good deal price-wise, but is delicious and all-you-can-eat. They have a coffee room down the hall where you can make coffee, use the refrigerator, or sit to sip tea and a siting room on the front of the house. The breakfast is served in the rear dining room which opens up the to the solarium across the back of the house that looks out across their nicely decorated back yard (this is where we ate each morning). There only downsides are that this is not elevator, so you have to carry your suitcase to the 2nd floor up the stairs and they have no air conditioning, but it was not needed while we were there.

Charming B&B. Everyone was warm and helpful; we had breakfast there both days, and it was probably the best breakfast we had in Ireland. Very clean, very comfortable, walking distance to town and across the street from a Hop On Hop Off bus stop. We feel very lucky to have been able to stay at Herbert House, a lovely place!

Very walkable to downtown Killarney and there is a great pub across the street with music. Breakfast at Herbert was fantastic and reasonable. The owner and staff were very nice. The only thing that could be improved is the carpeting inside the sleeping rooms.
