Very nice and clean I'd be very happy to go back anytime. I wish I could stay longer.

We were initially put into a "lake view" room on the first floor that was half blocked by the building. They changed us to a much better room for the next day.

Beautiful hotel and property on the national park, lovely to sit and enjoy the grounds or walk/rent a bike (outside hotel). They made it easy to store the bikes for us since we arrived and rented late. The restaurant was so so, the food average (catering to N. American I believe) and the service in the restaurant (to be fair was busy) was not very good. The live music in the bar at the end of the night was lovely.

The Lake Hotel's staff are simply amazing. The entire hotel feels somewhat magical - there is history all over the interior, and the exterior has such majestic views that it's hard to compare with anywhere else I've been. We had an excellent trip and wish we could have stayed even longer.

The views from our hotel room were stunning to wake up too each day. Within walking distance to such historical sites.

This past October, my husband and I traveled on our first-ever trip to Ireland to celebrate 30 years of marriage. We had a wonderful trip and can't wait to return. Nearly every place we stayed was very good, but the standout gem of the trip was hands-down The Lake Hotel in Killarney in County Kerry. This charming and magical place was by far our favorite lodging, for so many reasons. The grounds of the property, as you turn into the driveway, are immaculate and they are the first hint you are someplace truly special. The grounds have plenty to enjoy and explore, including scenic views & wildlife. Lough Leane and the castle ruins at the edge of the lake provide some of the most stunning vistas and views of the mountains beyond Lough Leane. Sitting in The Lakeside Bistro bar and restaurant watching rain storms blow in over the lake from the mountains was better than can be described. Really, who needs TV or entertainment when surrounded by such beauty? Every meal, (and every perfectly poured pint of Guinness!) we enjoyed during our stay was excellent and noteworthy. The breakfasts in The Castlelough Restaurant were perfection too, with attentive staff & delicious food. Large clean rooms, great food, wonderful staff. Make sure you spend at least 2-3 days here.

Couldn’t say enough good things about the property and especially the hotel team. The location, surrounding grounds and views are spectacular. We had hoped for some up close opportunities to photograph the deer - and we did. Our upgraded guest room was fantastic and provided ample space to sleep, relax, enjoy room service dining comfortably and take in the views from our balcony. Both breakfasts and in room dining dinners were excellent with the service staff engaging and polite. The hotel bar was well stocked and the team made perfect recommendations for our cocktails. Our sincere gratitude goes out to the welcoming guest service agent for her empathy upon our arrival. We had experienced a tragic incident earlier in the day in Ballybunion and she did a wonderful job to make us feel welcome and cared for. Thank you.
