Top Muckross Lake Hotel Reviews

Killarney Plaza Hotel and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Loved this hotel! Why? The location, the warm fireplace in the lobby, the onsite restaurant and bar. Spacious clean rooms. I would not stay anywhere else!"

Eviston House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location. We arrived early and they held our luggage for us, offered my daughter a space to get some work done in peace and quiet, and were all very friendly. Live music in the pub was a treat, and the only negative was the pub bartender who insisted his misogynistic jokes were appropriate and funny to another woman and myself."

The Lake Hotel Killarney

10/10 Excellent

"The most amazing property in Ireland! Love everything- from the sparkling clean rooms, to the amazing breakfast, to the beautiful lake & mountain views, to the kind and caring staff, perfect pints of Guinness and live music in the Bistro: this place is the best!"

The Brehon Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Personnel très attentif et serviable. L’hôtel est bien équipé avec spa, piscine, 2 bars et 1 restaurant. Un peu loin du centre-ville de Killarney à pied mais l’hôtel peut vous prêter des vélos sans frais."
