Tww Comment

The Castlerosse Hotel however was not the first hotel built on this site. The Royal Victoria Hotel, one of Ireland's first "grand" hotels occupied this exact location during the 19th and early 20th century and played host to Princes, Dukes and Earls and, according to popular legend, enjoyed a brief visit by Queen Victoria on her visit to Killarney in 1861.
