Description
With 8 en-suite rooms, three of which are doubles, four of them sleeps four people and the other room sleeps eight. Five of them have televisions and all are centrally heated. There is a fully equipped kitchen, a communal dining and lounge area with television where a light breakfast is available each morning, luggage lockers and bike lock up facility. Outdoor smoking area.
Internet cafe next door and laundrette across the road.
With the town of Tralee right on the hostel's doorstep, there are plenty of other exciting facilities close by. Open all year, you can be rest assured of an enjoyable trip to Tralee where you will stay in a comfortable, friendly, warm and welcoming establishment.
Killarney National Park, Ireland's first National Park opened in 1932. The park is situated in south-west Ireland, close to the most westerly point in Europe, and it covers over 25,000 acres (10,000 hectares) of mountain, moorland, woodland, waterways, parks and gardens.
Killarney by its reputation and its association with the Lakes and the Ring of Kerry is the major tourist venue in the county and is one of the most important in the whole of Ireland. This is probably particularly the case with North American 'coach tour' tourists. As well as Killarney there are considerable number of attractions along the Killorglin and Valentia routes, from Dingle westwards and from Tralee northwards along the coast as far as Ballyduff. Ballybunion a traditional seaside holiday town suffers for the lack of a major tourist attraction with the exception of the golf which only appeals to a certain number of tourists. There are many more tourist attractions in the county for which numbers are not available.

The owners were very friendly and went out of their way to help me. Stephen, the owner, even arranged for me to go to the Rose of Tralee festival at a lower price as another customer had not been able to attend. I would definitely recommend this hostel.

I had a great stay at the Castle Hostel in Tralee. It is located close to the town centre and bus/ train stations. The facilities and rooms were excellent , I got a warm welcome and plenty of assistance from Stephen and Aileen during my stay. This hostel experience was better than some hotels and B&B's I have stayed in and if I am back in Tralee this would be my first choice accommodation. The Castle Hostel offers excellent value for money and a really comfortable and friendly place to stay in Tralee.

Stephen was great, it was like staying with a good friend. It was very home-like, and hostels are usually anything but. They really go out of their way to accommodate you. I'm doing the "backpack around Europe" thing, and I've stayed in a ton of Hostels, and I'd rather stay here over anywhere else.

Hostelz.com Guest Reviews
Very good place to stay. I stayed at the Castle in 2008 and 2009 Good, clean kitchen; clean bathrooms and dorms as well. Friendly staff, The Castle is well worth its 20 Euros per night charge. Near to the must-see museum with its extensive life-sized exhibit of Tralee in the medieval times -- 6.50 Euros admission for concession rate. Surrounding the museum is Tralee's marvelous large municipal park, mostly rose garden. — Jim Kennedy , U.S.A. (2009-12-19)
