My recent stay at the Park Hotel Kenmare had its ups and downs. While the location is just delightful, making it easy to explore the charming town, I found the room to be a bit lackluster compared to what I anticipated. The service was generally pleasant, but there were moments where the attention felt lacking. Dining was quite enjoyable, but I've had better experiences elsewhere. Overall, it's a beautiful property in a lovely setting, though it's not without its quirks.
