I recently stayed at the Lake Hotel and enjoyed it immensely. It is the finest location in Killarney with spectacular views of lake and mountains, yet close to town. The sceney is unblemished, with no buildings in sight to mar the view. This family run hotel provides superior service and fine dining. The rooms are very spacious and comfortable with... More

Three night stay over the bank holiday weekend. Beautiful setting and the view over the grounds and lake was a real treat both in the morning and evening sun. The staff were very friendly helpful and extremely efficient despite the holiday weekend.

I sincerely have no idea how this hotel managed to get anything other than 5 "Circles" from people. My wife and I spent 7 days on the ground around Ireland, and this luxurious hotel in Killarney was by far our favorite stay. We booked a Deluxe Lake View room, and upon arrival I was informed that we'd been upgraded to... More

Stayed here for three nights in early June. The hotel was quite 'old school' and the room (which I think was part of the original hotel building) did seem a bit dated to be honest. I think there are newer rooms in the extension. However the view and setting made up for it. Service was good. The receptionist was able... More

This was the perfect place to stay our first day in Ireland and if I had my trip to do over, I would cut out several of the less pleasant experiences in order to stay a few more days in this peaceful place with the friendly, welcoming staff and enjoy all the area has to offer.
