This is an extremely well presented boutique hotel, reminisent of those luxury hotel stays from years gone by. The friendly proprietors Annette and Paul cannot do enough for you, and will recommend tours, attratctions, restaurants etc. The building is a large house overlooking Loch Lein in the Killarney National Park offering 23 rooms. Well positioned for the Ring of Kerry, Dingle and the Killarney Lakes. It has a small bar and quiet seating area. The bedrooms are large and spacious and extremely comfortable. Ours had a lake view. Dinner is served Wednesday to Sunday from an excellent but somewhat limited menu whilst classical music plays. We had the pan fried salmon and chicken mains which were beautifully cooked. The atmosphere is a little formal and dated perhaps but we felt this is exactly how the proprietors wanted it, and judging by the awards and rave reviews, who are we to argue? If you want a little more life in the evenings, Killarney is a 15 minute cab ride away offering a lot of options. Alternatively, the 5 star Europe Hotel is a 10 minute walk and offers a variety of food and bar options. Paul and Annette will be happy to recommend and order a cab for you. The hotel will not suit children, nor young families and is very (possibly too) quiet at night. However, this is a welcome and refreshing change and caters for older couples or those who want a quieter stay in luxurious surroundings. We had a very comfortable and relaxing stay.

I loved my stay at Loch Lein Country House Hotel. The room was absolutely gorgeous and so spacious. Gorgeous view from my window of Killarney National Park. The bed was so comfortable and everywhere was so clean and fresh. The owners Annette and Paul were so friendly, attentive and helpful. Their staff were so friendly too. The breakfast and dinners were amazing with lovely views from the dining room. I would highly recommend.

What a gorgeous gem we found on our Ireland vacation! This B&B sits next to Loch Lein, with beautiful grounds. The home itself is clean and well-decorated, with fresh flowers in the main areas. The dining room is charming and elegant. In fact, elegant is the word I'd use for our entire stay. The caretakers/owners are personable. One day we were out from sunup to sundown, getting back after dinner. I was offered hot tea, delivered to my room for me to relax and sip after a long day. Our room was amazing! It was spacious, with a sofa and table, and included fresh bathrobes—very luxurious. We had a spectacular view of the lake. The bed was comfortable, and the pillows fluffy (this means a lot to us!). We had two meals in the dining room, dinner and breakfast. The food is gourmet—the best we had during our travels. The meals are an extra charge, and totally worth it. On checkout, I left a bag behind and received a prompt call before we were out of the city. I was very appreciative of the diligence in handling my belongings. I can't say enough about this fantastic property: the service, the gorgeous room, and the delicious food. I highly recommend Loch Lein Country House for a comfortable and elegant stay.

Our stay at Loch Lein Country House was exceptional. The hotel was immaculate and the staff went out of their way to make our stay so memorable. Paul's knowledge of the area was invaluable. We would recommend a stay there as a hub for visiting the locality. And do have an evening meal there where you can relax with picture postcard views of the lake.

From the moment we arrived, Annette and Paul made us feel like honoured guests at their private country home. Our spacious, elegantly furnished room offered breathtaking views over Lough Lein and the MacGillicuddy Reeks. A truly “hidden gem” in Killarney—can’t wait to return!
