This property was gorgeous and the hotel is old fashioned in just the right way. Enormous room, great bed, great meal in the bistro (a vegetarian dal that was surprisingly fabulous) and a lovely staff member who helped us plan a hike in the park and gave us loads of great ideas.

This place was exquisite and we plan to return in the future. The staff was very helpful and delightful. The restaurant was outstanding for both breakfast (excellent buffet) and dinner (spectacular). The setting is beautiful and walking distance from Muckross Abby and Muckross House. The walking paths are tranquil and well kept. A beautiful place that we LOVED and highly recommend.

Beautiful property with lots of character. Staff is amazing, friendly and helpful. Buffet breakfast was delicious with a great variety of eggs, meats, fruits and flavored waters. Live music at the bar was incredible. Highly recommend this if you visit Killarney. The town is cute and the hotel is close to the forest for hiking and biking

The Lake hotel exceeded our expectations. The staff is super welcoming and the free breakfast buffet was shockingly good. We thought it would just be a few small things like cereals, and toast but they had so much selection as well as plenty of options that are gluten free for my wife to enjoy
