This hotel is so exceptional, so tranquil and beautifully located with the best of staff and the warmest of welcomes, it
Pros:

Everything, yet again our stay was exceptional at a fantastic hotel in a beautiful location with staff that are so friendly, welcoming and providing customer service to the highest of standards.

Cons:

Any criticism would be so minimal, and has so little impact that it is only fitting to say there is nothing we didn’t like about the property.

Stunning location with views to die for
Pros:

Stunning location with views to die for. We stayed for one night and our room was a lake view king-size room, absolutely gorgeous, spotlessly clean with tea and coffee making facilities in the room. We ate in the hotel and the food was delicious!!
We used the spa and pool both well worth a visit!
I can't wait for our next visit!

5 star personified
Pros:

Stayed for a trip before we had our second child. Brenda helped me organize a truly special weekend for my wife with Flowers that are still on display in my living room over a week later.

We dined in the restaurant and had a server named Tony - first day on dinner service and he truly made our experience one to remember. Food was fantastic and it was great to have a bit of craic! A really nice touch they brought a congratulatory cupcake for my wife at the end of dinner. Food was excellent and reasonable for the standard.

We upgraded our room to a lake view the week of the stay and it didn’t disappoint. Beautiful views and one of the best rooms I’ve stayed in over the last 24months.

Breakfast was once again superb - great variety.

The pool and spa were a real treat. I didn’t use the gym but it seemed up to the standard!

I will certainly be back 🍀 🇮🇪
Pros:

Weather happened to be great sunny outside sitting on the balcony having a coffee looking at the lakes

Cons:

I’m not a person for complaining this isn’t a compliment but 1 slight thing they might add in the bedroom with the kettle maybe a few packs of coffee and tea bags only coffee pods were available for the machine 4 of them and 2 normal tea bags and 2 peppermint tea and I think lemon tea there was only that’s really it i enjoyed it ticks all the boxes 10/10 ✅
