Room not ready until 4.45pm for a 3 pm check in, not really good enough for a 5 star hotel, everything else at the hotel was excellent, and would stay again
John, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely location, easy to get to. Very welcoming, great room. Worth the expense. Extremely friendly.
Peter, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Beautiful venue with some areas for improvement
My wife and I stayed here for a babymoon. Our overall experience was very positive and we would stay again however, there are a few areas for improvement. We found the spa facilities lacking compared to other similarly-rated hotels: the pool temperature was rather cold and sunloungers were uncomfortable. Access to spa facilities was highly limited without paying extra (such as for the jacuzzi). Housekeeping was good, but some polishing in a few places would help. Quality of the food was excellent and staff most welcoming. Value for money overall was reasonable but not great.

Lough Eske is a magical place. It was a wonderful place for us to spend some of our mini honeymoon. I'd highly recommend it to anyone thinking about booking. It is in the most beautiful surroundings. Everything is superb.

This place was fantastic. From the minute we arrived we had help with luggage and physical challenges. Gerard was great. The bar was also wonderful. The room was quite large as was the bathroom. Can’t wait to stay there again.
Ann, 1-night trip

LOVE LOVE LOVE!! I absolutely loved my stay here. The services were amazing. I arrived late in the evening and was greeted at my parked car and offered assistance with getting the luggage up to the hotel. The food in both the bar and restaurant was excellent. The room was comfy. I would most definitely stay here again and recommend to others.

This is the most beautiful hotel. Our room was exquisite. The staff and food was phenomenal. The only small flaw was our waiter at dinner was pretty inattentive. Even so, I’d highly recommend this property.
