Scenery and Service Above and Beyond
The Lake Hotel is a welcoming accomadation with stunning views. The staff find small and large ways to meet your needs and exceed yoyr exoectations. They upgraded our rooms to a lake view, provided great music in the evening, and offered extra bottles of water as we headed out to explore. Sitting in my room and common areas watching the view change was one of my favorite parts of the stay. The sing along in the lounger my last evening there was a community experience. The breakfast was in the lovely dining room and had a vast dejection of choices. Tye dining staff was attentive. The Devil’s Punchbowl Bar gave great service. For those traveling to Killarney National Park, this is a wonderful home base.

This is the third time I've stayed here in a little over a year. It is not inexpensive but worth the cost. It's lovely and gracious and peaceful. Magical views sweep over Lough Leane. Much to do in Killarney--Muckross House, Ross Castle, boat trips on the lake, the splendid Celtic Steps show-- and very helpful desk staff, who clearly want everyone to have a special stay.

This was one of my favourite hotels that we stayed in! The location is an absolute dream, the building has so much history to it and stays true to its character while being immaculately clean, the food is amazing, they had live music in the bar, and the staff was so very nice and helpful! Stay here if you get the chance :)

The view is amazing. The hotel was average and we were disappointed after reading so much about it. The food was average as well ~ an old hotel in a beautiful location that felt somewhat dated considering the price. Some of the staff were a bit snotty towards us and there were a couple of nice ones as well. Instant coffee in the room was one disappointment. Communication regarding the view from the room was also a disappointment. At that price?

Must get a lake view to make your experience.
The view from our room was spectacular. Absolutely the best thing about the hotel. A king size bed would be nice rather than a double and twin in the room. Outlets in the bathroom would be nice. The waitress for dinner was clearly new and struggled with service. The breakfast service was not great. We waited 25 minutes before they brought coffee and took our order as we were ordering off the menu and not eating the buffet. I asked for coconut milk and they indicated they make it homemade and brought out a sludge that was thicker than sour cream. The oat milk was normal. The manager and front desk staff were very friendly.
