For the eco conscious travellers, you can rest assured that your stay in Hotel Killarney checks off all the Green Credentials. We are a perfect location for exploring Killarney, with tonnes to do out and about in the city centre. 

The whole of County Kerry is known for it’s picturesque landscape, beautiful drives and homely atmosphere. While you will find it hard to travel around the county without a car, it doesn’t mean you shouldn’t opt for electric. With many hire companies now offering an EV solution, you should try it out! The rise of EVs has brought with it range anxiety, but feat not. Ireland has lots of EV Charging stations. 

About the EV Charging Stations in Hotel Killarney 

At Hotel Killarney we have a combination of destination chargers with 3 13KW Tesla EV charging points for guests to charge their vehicles free of charge.

2 of the chargers are Tesla only and 1 is a universal charger suitable for most EV’s. These are monitored by our CCTV on a 24-hour basis. Please be advised that access to chargers is for guest use only. At present, there is no rapid charger available in the hotel grounds. 

If you wish for faster charging points directly across the road from the hotel at Supervalu car park, they provide fast charging speeds which go up to 200Kw at a cost.
