Loved this hotel! The setting in the lake is stunning and the amenities were wonderful! The only complaint is that we wished there was at least one hot tub that was actually hot instead of lukewarm.

The property is beautiful and staff very helpful. It is a bit away from Killarney proper. A $20 cab ride if you want to leave your car at hotel. The view is amazing! We ate at the Italian restaurant and found it to be underwhelming.

Immaculately run and maintained property with superior professional service and amenities. Lots of comfortable public indoor areas and outdoor grounds with beautiful views of lake Leane. Helpful, curteous and pleasant staff, from reception, to waitpersons and housekeeping. Ample no-cost parking and only a short drive from/to Killarney. Great base for families of couples visiting Killarney, Killarney National Park and touring the Ring of Kerry. Overall great stay experience, and good value for the money.

Really lovely spot for a holiday all year round.

Everything was super, just a bit disappointed that the staff addressed my husband directly always as his name was on the booking. I did the booking but that doesn't matter! All good other than that. We look forward to going again later in the year.

Great hotel, room less so.

The hotel itself is wonderful. Service was very good. Staff at the lounge and other restaurants were friendly and very professional. The food was far above expectations. Our only issue was that the room we booked was located on level -1(the basement). It was selected because it was advertised as a garden view with a balcony. While the view was good, the room is located near the parking garage entrance and the laundry. I would never have booked this room if I knew it's location. Also, the room did not have a working safe or thermostat, so the room was sub-tropical.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

Lovely hotel. But for a 5-star resort st that price point we thought that the room was a bit cramped. Also the lighting in our room was practically non- existent! We had someone come to help but he just said that some rooms are very dark and don’t have lighting. And that we had one of those rooms. It was impossible to read a book at night. Nice staff however and fabulous spa!

6/10 Good

The hotel is amazing beautifully maintained great facilities. However the restaurant facilities are very poor. If you want to eat in the Brassiere or Riva you cannot book at all. You are encouraged to book the Panorama restaurant very expensive and limited meals if you stayed more than one night. It is almost that the non residents get priority. I have stayed now in The Europe three times this was the worst for eating on site 2 hour waits didn’t get to eat until 10pm!! All other restaurants. Allow residents to book ahead even if owing a deposit to hold your table. Why would you want to spend thousands of pounds and still not be able to eat at your 5 star restaurant. Come on Hotel Europe wake up why would you want to treat your residents like this. Please re think this as eventually paying residents will vote with their feet. A great hotel but this is not good. I did raise this when booking out to be told you can eat in the panorama yes I am sure at extra costs and limited menus!! Also in the last night Saturday 5th September tables The brassiere tables were free but not being used slow at clearing tables. Also start limiting as all other restaurants do 1 hour 30 mins not leaving non residents families there on tables for several hours. I also witnessed staff eating at the tables one evening really?

3* EXPERIENCE

Arrived at hotel mid week for one night. We were told by reception at check in the cleaners were still in the room so we went for a drink in the meantime. When we returned we were told the room still wasn't ready so we waited in the lobby. Reception finally gave us the key and when we arrived at the room the foor was open and the cleaners were still inside. Hotel should not state on website that you can check in at 3pm and then have toom ready at 4.10pm. We went to the spa and had intense deep tissue massages where we both fell asleep so obviously they were not that intense but enjoyable all the same. The thermal suite was also underwhelming- jacuzzi not working in infinity pool and sauna was very hot. On return to our room, we noticed all our belongings were moved and the curtains closed. Not sure if this is usually done in 5* hotel but we felt like it was unnecessary. We then went to the Brasserie for dinner where we were told that there would be a 45min wait for food but we could go to Riva as they would have seats. I had called weeks beforehand to reserve a table at the Brasserie and was told it was first come first serve. Then we noticed a table reserved for 8 people on our way out. The room was well equipped but the beds were hard and it was way too hot leading to a poor night sleep. Told the receptionist about our check in and instead of taking it on board she unapologetically said that the hotel was fully booked and check in is usually between 3-4pm

Hermosas vistas del Parque Nacional que pueden ser aprovechadas (en casi todo el año) desde los jardines y edificios del hotel. Desafortunadamente no pude hacer uso del spa, pero las instalaciones se ven de primera.
