Amazing trip.

Our stay at the lake view hotel was incrdible. The room was beautiful and super comfy, it included many amenities and was one of the nicest rooms we had ever stayed in. The breakfast was lovely, it was buffet style and had lots of options including full irish and continental. We had a meal in the restaurant which was also incredible. The staff were lovely and friendly and very helpful in supporting our trip.

Ireland’s Gem of Hospitality

My wife and I have stayed in hundreds of lovely hotels all around the world…nothing compares to The Lake Hotel. Absolutely the magnificent nearly hundred year old center piece in Killarney…that’s actually an understatement. The Lake Hotel is clearly innovating the next era of legendary Irish hospitality, working to ensure that guests get the full experience offered by the hotel while empowering critical sustainability simultaneously.

What an incredibly beautiful location! Our room looked out on to Killarney Lake and the surrounding mountains. One evening we enjoyed watching a family of deer out our patio door. It was so peaceful! The food, bars and restaurants were fabulous as well! I’d definitely stay again!
