The James Hotel

We are back from a 2 night stay in the James hotel. We had a wonderful time in this lovely hotel. From the beautiful room to the yummy breakfast every element of our stay was very enjoyable. We had dinner in the bar on the Wednesday night. It is difficult for smaller hotels to make a success of the business but if the James continues with the standards it now has, I am sure the hotel will continue to blossom. A hidden treasure!!

Second stay. It was really welcoming from the time we arrived. Rooms were spotless. Excellent breakfast, which was cooked to order with very good coffee. Lovely little extras, such a spray for your pillow to help you sleep. Would have no hesitation in recommending The James.

A wonderfully modern hotel which was clean, comfortable and most importantly had some brilliant staff, in particular Eimear who was a real pleasure to deal with throughout our stay. The beds were comfortable and the shower refreshing. We also ate in Bridge Lane in the hotel and the food was beautiful. I would highly recommend The James Hotel given its proximity to all that Tralee has to offer from shops and restaurants to bars and more.

Lovely hotel in central Tralee. The room was beautiful with lots of nice little touches like the lighting under the beds and gorgeous soaps. The breakfast was superb, the full Irish was excellent. Also very child friendly, we had a great time. The only thing I would have preferred was carpet instead of hardwood floors but everything else was perfect.

Very comfortable hotel room, lovely fresh white linen, excellent cleanness, very friendly staff excellent service would recommend 100 per cent. Its great location central to a lot of amenities. Would have no problem recommending to friend's & family.

She who must be obeyed and I were waiting for this new hotel to open and of course try it out. It's location just off the town center and next to the Garda st created a little doubt as to its standard . However as you enter you could easily be in a beautiful boutique hotel anywhere in Europe. It's modern but cosy. The dining area / bar is on the small side but it's design with the open snugs and warm fire gives you a feeling like a big hug. The staff are professional yet friendly, warm and intimate but not overbearing.. We came here twice to check out the breakfast and the lunch. The breakfast was perfectly cooked, timely and delicious. I had the full Irish and the real boss the breakfast Bap. Now the Bap had all the contents of my Irish only vertical. This caused us some giggles as I watched her try to deconstruct it. Generous to a fault .and reasonably priced. Now there were only 8 to 10 people so we were curious as to how they would cope for a Sunday lunch. On we came on a wet and windy Sunday at 13.30. we were practically alone only 3 or 4 other couples. That makes me nervous. Usually a sign that the food is not great. So Duck for the boss and fish for me. We couldn't really fault it. If I was nit picking the fries should be chips ,real hand cooked chips. Other than that a good experience. So why on both occasions is it so quiet ?? We can only conclude that the secret is not out yet. Friendly , efficient staff Beautiful boutique hotel Good food Great value Well worth the visit
