A hotel in close proximity to Killarney but without the traffic and noise. Get a room with a balcony, great view quiet and the option of opening the door if too warm in summer. Both bistro and main restaurant serve great food, the bistro better value. Breakfasts are vast in choice. Beds super comfy bathrooms very good. Go for walks over the property around the lake. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Beautiful location.
It was a great stay - wonderful hotel and beautiful hotel. Unfortunately it rained the afternoon/evening that we were there so we could not enjoy the lake. I am sure you pay a lot for the location, but we stayed in better hotels on our journey through Ireland, and paid far less.

Beautiful property, the views are stunning! We went to the bistro they have while waiting for check in and they had a variety of whiskey’s to choose from. They also provide the service of franking and posting postcards, which is a fantastic service! Excellent hotel, I highly recommend!! (The breakfast was also very tasty!)

Enchanting property! Service was friendly and welcoming. The restaurant, bar, and patio areas all had an amazing view. Live music in the lounge/bar area provided a nice ambiance. Rooms were lovely and clean. The best part is that the hotel was removed from the hustle and bustle of the touristy part of Killarney but easy enough to get to when we wanted it.
