What we liked about this property was EVERYTHING! From the drive through an enchanted forest to the lake views to the elegant stone guest house with the most fabulous dinner, and kind and accommodating wait staff AND the room in the Garden House was extremely clean and comfortable. And to top it off, while walking the manicured lawns with magnificent trees, we spotted deer grazing in the gardens with no fear of onlookers. There were many photo ops at this lovely place!
The property is gorgeous, historic and beautifully located. The staff was friendly and very hospitable. Wonderful stay, I just wish we could have stayed longer :)
Lovely stay at the Ard na Sidhe Country House. Very peaceful and tranquil setting. Such a beautiful location. Wonderful gardens and very classy main house. Food was wonderful. Our rooms were in the garden house, and was clean and comfortable although a little warm during our unseasonably warm visit. Great staff all around. Easy parking and great location. Much prefer this stay over crowded Killarney.
This is a sensationally peaceful property with comfortable accommodations and excellent food. The Saturday night harp concert was transformational. Debbie at reception and Baptiste, the student intern, were especially gracious. The landscaping is undulating and thoughtfully natural. One of the best ever.
This is a stunning country house, it a tranquil location. However, it is more like a guest house than a hotel. There are no facilities here at all. It is beautiful and relaxing just be aware no proper bar, no pool, no spa, no tv in rooms etc. The sister hotel The Europe is much better value for money.

Great retreat for a couple
Staff friendly and helpful. Food was excellent. Scenery lovely. Highly recommend the views from the top of the mountain across the road but be warned it is a bit of a climb
Always a wonderful
Stay at Ard na Sidhe - from the check in to walks in garden, lake, afternoon tea and wonderful
Dinner, service and just the pleasure of. Ring at this beautiful location…
Beautiful hotel in an outstanding setting, surrounded by lush gardens at the edge of a lake.
Staff very attentive, excellent food at the restaurant.
Just perfect!
We were absolutely thrilled with our staty at Ard na Sidhe. The hotel, grounds, staff, food, everything were absolutely amazing. Debra and Alex were simply amazing. If we had to do our Ireland vacation over, we would've stayed here the whole time. Simply stunning.
We booked this hotel as part of our Honeymoon through hotels.com. We chose this hotel specifically as they advertised babysitting was available and we had our baby with us. On check in we enquired about a babysitter for that evening so we could have a meal together and were told they do not offer babysitting and this was never available at this hotel. We were meant to stay 2 nights but checked out the next morning and moved to a different hotel with babysitting. Facilities are not as advertised on hotels.com and are misleading to families.
This was a beautiful, romantic setting. The house and rooms were stunning. The views across the lake and the gardens full of life and interest. We had beautiful weather which helped!!
A particular mention goes to Debbie and her service staff, Ellie and Salvador. At a time when service sector is struggling, it was refreshing to see a staff who were attentive without being overbearing, who gave attention to detail, and who smiled and made eye contact. It really made all the difference - a credit to Debbie and the team she has built at Ard Na Sidhe.
The fine dining was delicious - beautifully presented, and local produce.
Well Done Ard Na Sidhe. You nailed it.
You should plan a vacation around this hotel!. It has one of the most spectacular views in Ireland on its own section of a lake. There is an amazing hike that leads up to a mountain top. The restaurant was the best I have been to in Ireland. It may not be easy to get there (especially without a car) but it is very much worth the effort.
