This hotel stay was just what we needed in the midst of a busy travel schedule. The grounds are stunning and the hotel is out side of the city hustle and bustle. Nestled on the stunning lake with breathing views. The room we stayed in was large and spacious with a tub and balcony. This is a must stay in Killarney.

The hotel and surrounding property are beautiful. The room was large and there were decent food options. Great location. Staff was very kind and helpful.
4-night trip

10/10

Whilst you could say the hotel could do with an update, this would detract from it’s wonderful charm and the feeling you get of enjoying a stay that you can imagine was similar to that enjoyed by the gentry of yesteryear. Reception staff were friendly and welcoming. Our room was comfortable and benefited from a stunning lake view.

The Lake Hotel is the loveliest stay I have ever had. It was my second time and it is a must stay whenever I will go to Ireland henceforth. The view was sensational, the room was luxurious, and the food and drinks were superb. Additionally, the staff was so accommodating and friendly.
