We had a suite and it was incredibly nice…facing the lake. Room service was fast, hot and delicious. Wonderful views and right on the Ring of Kerry. Would definitely stay here again.

I loved it felt like a resort and everyone was very helpful. Beautiful lake view from room and at breakfast and nice short walk to see castle ruins. Breakfast was great but I loved dinner more. We ate at the bar (the dining room was booked) and it was incredible. The desserts were out of this world yummy! The waiter ask us our next day plan and even recommended some stops. Wish we had stayed more nights. Best hotel in our Ireland trip hands down.

Loved this property. Absolutely beautiful room, restaurants, and hotel. The grounds were spectacular with amazing views, walkable trails, and even some deer on our evening stroll. Thoroughly enjoyed the thermal suite as well.

A beautiful hotel with an incredible staff. The room, property, restaurants and thermal spa were such a treat. The morning views were spectacular. Being so close to the park and having biking and hiking trails just outside the grounds were so convenient. Just perfect!!

Hotel is situated on a stunning piece of property. The views from the restaurant / bar and patio area were absolutely gorgeous, with the lake and mountains in the background as well as the properties own little ruin. We spent hours enjoying the views. The location is great, being right on the edge of Killarney National Park. The hotel actually is close enough to hike directly into Killarney National Park. Can walk to Muckross Abbey in about 30 minutes. From there you can walk / hike to Muckross House and Torc Waterfall. Was fairly easy for us to drive the Ring of Kerry and also Slea Head Drive. Were able to take in the views at every meal and the staff always made every effort to seat you right by a window, if possible. The food overall was good to very good, with a fairly expansive breakfast buffet. The room was very nice - clean, spacious and comfortable. The staff was so friendly and helpful. When one of our 3rd party bookings for a boat trip fell through they were able to book us on the Gap of Dunloe tour at the last minute. The tour was great and saved our day. Wish we could have squeezed time to try out the thermal spa. Looked so nice and so relaxing. Parking right at the hotel was nice to have. Couldn't recommend the hotel highly enough.

My husband and I just returned home after a wondering week long trip to Ireland. I want to share a 5 star review of The Lake Hotel in Killarney! Wow did they impress us! It was absolutely worth splurging slightly for a room. The view from our room was spectacular, the restaurant served the best food and cocktails we had the whole trip, and the staff/service was unmatched. We felt like royalty! When we shared that it was our honeymoon, the surprised us with chocolates and a print waiting on our bed! If you’re staying in Killarney, i would highly recommend the Lake Hotel!

This hotel has one of the best mountain views in all of Killarney. It's located off the town center about 1.5 miles, so it's not a super easy walk to town, but doable if the weather is ok. The interior is full of antique furnishings and memoribilia from the hotel over the years. The bar is welcoming and bright and the Bistro restaruant has good food and service andd great views of the mountains. We did not eat at the main dining room. The lodging areas are a bit tired and dated, but I find this pretty typical in Ireland. I did not find this to be a huge negitive, however. It's just part of the charm. Most of the rooms (but not all) have Lake Views. You'll want one for sure. Killarney is a lovely part of Ireland and a good jumping off spot to so many tourist spots. It's my favorite place to stay. I'd recommend if you are in Killarney to try to stay at The Lake Hotel at least a few nights. The view is worth it.

The staff at this hotel were amazing. They did everything you asked plus were there to help with extras like helping you get somewhere or helping you get to a place you never heard of lots of advice for somebody who had never been to this place.

The hotel itself is lovely but the grounds and the adjoining national park are magnificent

We loved our stay here. The breakfast buffet was excellent, the rooms were cozy, the view was amazing, and the staff were friendly. Our only complaints were that the sink either had super hot water or super cold water so no adjusting the temperature and that the rooms lacked AC so we had to throw a fan they provided in the window at night to make the room a decent temperature. Otherwise, we will be back!

The hotel setting was in a beautiful spot with views over the lake. Red deer and water birds to be seen all around the lake. The actual room was very well decorated and both the amenities and food offered in the hotel exceptional. Would not hesitate to recommend the Lake Hotel.
