A truly special property - the lake views alone are worth it. Be sure to select an upgraded room for a bigger space that’s not too close to the bar/bistro (as if your room is too close, it can be loud at night) - also be sure to book the lake thermal suite for a spa experience.

Great location
Verified review

8/10 Very good

Beautiful hotel had a wonderful location with absolutely phenomenal views. The food was excellent too. Our only challenge was that the room was quite small, no air-conditioning, only choice was to open a window and turn on the fan that was actually provided in the room. This became a challenge because our room happened to be located directly above the entrance to the hotel so was quite noisy with the window open until after the bar had closed. other than that wonderful place.

Loved this stop, it was our favorite hotel of a 2 week trip. Great food, staff, & scenery. Do yourself a favor, skip staying right downtown and stay here for the R&R. Very easy transport or bike ride to downtown Killarney
