Stayed here over February mid term for a little R&R with my daughter and we really loved it. The hotel is beautiful, staff are very polite and helpful, food was delicious.

I enjoyed the most wonderful stay in Lyrath. I loved every thing....the food, the room & the service...all was fabulous. The welcome, the chat & great sense of humour with Dermot, the concierge was outstanding.
He gets my vote for concierge of the year!
Thank you.

Hotel very positive, service was very good. I would recommend trying the cinema room which is great for couples or families.Dinner and overall food was very good. A warning would be children must leave the lobby area by 9 pm which it doesnt say anywhere online. A downside of the stay would be activities are very limited, the archery was very good however but thats basically what you are limited to. Also very small breakfast selection.

Amazing hotel, amazing staff, nicest scenery I’ve seen in any Irish hotel as of yet. Staff couldn’t do enough to keep us happy. Rooms were really clean and nice.
As soon as you walk in your bags are taken up to your room for you and check in is seamless.
Would be back again in a heartbeat.
