Area is remote and the spa is outdated. There’s not much to do at the hotel most activities require leaving the premises. The hotel is well suited for as a travel stopover to other destinations .

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Beautiful location, exactly as I was hoping it would be. 5 star hotel, 5 star service. Friendly staff went out of their way to make sure I was happy and taken care of. I did the horse riding and falconry activities and both were superb. The hotel is an easy walk from Kenmare town, and the hotel arranged for a ride for me to the town after I checked out. Food was delicious. I had afternoon tea as well as breakfast. I would absolutely recommend Sheen Falls Lodge, and will stay here again on my next trip to Ireland. Love it.

2 wonderful nights at Sheen Falls
Amazing location, staff and food. 2 nights was not enough and you never have to leave the grounds to experience breathtaking scenery, world class food and a great pint of Guinness.

Luxury in a gorgeous setting
A beautifully situated luxury hotel where eberything is done to a very high standard. Our room had lovely views over the falls. The Falls restaurant is superb although I would prefer traditional dining chairs over the pub style semi-lounge chairs that they have which are bad for the posture wheen eating and are slightly to low. Over all, expensive and worth it.

Perfect stay
Simply excellent, service is perfect and the grounds are beautiful. Bed is comfortable and breakfast is tasty. Deep tissue massage is not very deep and probably not worth the money but everything else was just great.
