Muckross Park Hotel & Spa

From the first time myself and Gordon stayed in the Muckross Park Hotel 3 years ago we fell in love, everything from the surroundings and spa to the food are exceptional, not to mention the staff who are the most amazing team of people you will ever meet! When we got engaged there was only ever one hotel that took our breath away! From the moment we met Bernie, the hotels wedding coordinator, we knew we were in the best possible hands! Bernie, Madina and the entire staff of Muckross Park Hotel made planning our wedding so easy and nothing was ever too much trouble! We were made feel so special on every visit to the hotel! Our wedding day itself was simply a dream, absolutely perfect! All of our guests were amazed by the beautiful surroundings of the Atrium, where we held our drinks reception, and decor of the Valencia Suite. Our guests were also blown away by the standard of food on the day, people are still commenting on it months later! Myself and Gordon have been back to stay at Muckross Park since the wedding, it is simply our favourite place. The staff yet again made us feel so welcome and special, it is the most amazing hotel! Thank you to Bernie, Madina & everyone at Muckross Park for making our wedding the most unforgettable day of our lives!

Thank you so much to Niall, Bernie, Carolina, Medina and all of the team at Muckross Park Hotel for looking after us and making sure our wedding was everything we dreamed of. We are so glad we chose them to look after our wedding day. Right from the beginning, we knew that we would be in good hands. Firstly, our first meeting with Bernie (the Wedding Sales Manager) was such a lovely experience and really helped us to visualise the type of wedding we could have at the hotel. Nothing was too big an ask and Bernie included very generous offerings to make the package that little bit "extra". She was excellent with her contact throughout all of our wedding planning months. Caroline in room reservations was so helpful for all of our bookings and queries and never minded if we needed to change details at any stage. Niall (the Banqueting Manager) was an absolute pleasure to work with and we cannot convey everything he did for us. Niall was our go-to for every detail of the planning, from the set up of the room to the entertainment, food and guest planning. He was so flexible to make sure we were able to get anything we needed, and the week leading up to the wedding he was so attentive to make sure we had everything sorted ahead of the day. We cannot thank Niall enough - professional to a 5 star standard but also such a great guy:) The night before and on the day itself, Medina was there to assist with all of the decor and table set up. With Niall & Medina looking after everything, we knew we could fully relax and not even worry about details for our venue on the day. The food was exquisite (the guests are still talking about it!) and the hotel were extremely generous with their portions and even seconds! Thank you so much to all the team. We were treated as if we were the only couple to have a wedding at the hotel and we were made to feel so special any time we called in, be it just a pop in, meal tasting, and especially for the wedding weekend itself. We would highly recommend this hotel as a venue for any wedding couple. It provides such a unique experience with the rustic setting and the highest quality for everything. Michelle & Barry

It is difficult to know where to begin in expressing how we feel about Muckross Park Hotel and its’ staff. We are not natives of Killarney but from the first moment that we set foot in Muckross Park, we felt at home and knew right then and there that it was going to be our wedding venue. Bernie very kindly met with us – unplanned, that first evening and that was the beginning of our very special journey with both Bernie and the hotel. Over the next year and a half, we made many trips to Muckross Park from Galway and each time, we were made feel so welcome and treated like royalty. We knew that we were in the most incredible hands and when we met with our wedding co-ordinator Madina, we felt as if we had won the lotto! She ensured that each and every detail of our wedding was organised with exceptional professionalism. While she is incredible at her job, she also makes you feel as if you have known her forever. She is extremely personable and not only are you in the hands of an amazing wedding co-ordinator, you also gain a very good friend who is there for you throughout the process. Each and every member of staff whom we encountered along the way made us feel as if we were V.I.P.’s. They carry out every aspect of their jobs with the highest of standards and always go above and beyond their duties. From the fabulous accommodation, to the impeccable service, to the most delicious food, we could not have asked for more, both in the lead up to and on our big day. Our wedding guests still talk about the beautiful hotel in the heart of Killarney. We felt as if we were living out a true life fairy-tale during our wedding weekend and the staff at Muckross Park played a massive role in that. We will be forever grateful and only wish that we could do it all over again! The staff are absolute experts at what they do and any couple who is lucky enough to have their wedding there, is truly blessed. It is an exceptionally special hotel and we will forever hold a special place in our hearts for both it and its’ wonderful staff.
