Four star status for Castleross­e

-

THINGS are going well at the Castleross­e Hotel in Killarney which has recently achieved Four Star status on the back of a successful 2018 which saw the hotel record trading profits of just under half a million Euro.

Last week the Castleross­e Park Resort announced the recent classifica­tion of its hotel to four stars by Fáilte Ireland.

It follows on a change of branding, earlier this year, to the Castleross­e Park Resort which was developed to better reflect the hotel’s National Park and lakeside location within two kilometres of Killarney town.

The resort has made a number of improvemen­ts in product and service, and has been awarded the classifica­tion with immediate effect.

The Castleross­e Park Resort filed accounts for 2018 showing trading profits of €499,000 plus a revaluatio­n reserve of €2.4 million bringing the total to €2.9 million.

Castleross­e Park Resort General Manager Danny Bowe said everyone at the hotel are all absolutely delighted to see the hotel and resort gain the recognitio­n.

“We have all worked hard over the last few years, improving our services and rebranding as a Resort in order to achieve this classifica­tion, and we are grateful to Fáilte Ireland for awarding us with four stars. Here at the Castleross­e we are constantly striving to offer a high level of service to old and new customers, so it is a pleasure to see that all of our hard work hasn’t gone unnoticed,” said Mr Bowe.

Despite the reclassifi­cation to Four Star status Mr Bowe said prices will remain the same.

To complement its environmen­tally sensitive location, Castleross­e Park Resort has also continued efforts to become eco-friendlier by undertakin­g more sustainabl­e approaches such as reducing both energy and non-recyclable waste, in order to achieve a greener, cleaner Resort. Castleross­e also intends to develop these practices further in the coming year, as part of improving the overall customer experience.
