Book now!
This hotel stay was just what we needed in the midst of a busy travel schedule. The grounds are stunning and the hotel is out side of the city hustle and bustle. Nestled on the stunning lake with breathing views. The room we stayed in was large and spacious with a tub and balcony. This is a must stay in Killarney.

Royalty on the lake
The property certainly gives the feel of royalty. Beautiful setting on the lake with a castle and mountain backdrop. Rooms, lounges and restaurant were all excellent. Can easily hike into the park and the city is 5 min away. Great breakfast and bar. Loved it.

The Lake Hotel is the loveliest stay I have ever had. It was my second time and it is a must stay whenever I will go to Ireland henceforth. The view was sensational, the room was luxurious, and the food and drinks were superb. Additionally, the staff was so accommodating and friendly.

Healing Time in Nature
I could rest in nature. Such a beautiful place to go. There is a walking trail right in front of the hotel restaurant. My family walked before and after each meal.

Good location
The MVP of hotel was on the lake, apart from that there is no amenities, the pool charges you 20 euros for 1.5 hours and requires booking, the dining options are limited to 9:30 pm and there is no place outside built to have enjoy the property and view

Amazing time at The Lake Hotel
I had an amazing time at The Lake Hotel! The room was the perfect size and the beds were very comfortable. We had a view of the lake and a beautiful sunset every night. It was in walking distance of the Killarney National Park and Muckross House. The city was a short drive from the hotel. Only thing is we did not have A/C in our room and it was hot during our stay. We had a fan but it did not make a difference. It was not supposed to be so warm during the time we were there but we were fortunate to have a beautiful week in Ireland.

Amazing lake view property
View and property is unbelievably beautiful! Breakfast was delicious. Staff great. I would definitely stay here again. Beds were ok - only area they could improve is better linens and beds. But….the view, service and delicious breakfast make up for that. Clientele while we were there was a little bit older but made for a quiet relaxing stay. Book the lake view room! Pictures are the view from our room.

Absolutely the most top notch family owned property in Ireland. The only bad thing is you have to leave and go home. Third time here- will be back. Stunning! Great staff.
