Lough Rynn Castle

Absolutely fabulous one night stay... Wish we had of booked two nights.. Everything was first class from start to finish ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ our room, food, grounds and staff were outstanding we will be back sooner rather than later until the next time

We stayed at Lough Rynn for a family wedding. What a fabulous hotel and wedding venue! From the warm greeting at check in, the beautiful comfortable room with incredible views to the lovely wedding reception we were blown away. I cannot recommend this hotel highly enough. My tiny ****** is the very poor internet connection. I appreciate we are meant to be taking a break from reality in such beautiful surroundings but with an unwell close relative, it made me very anxious to be so cut off.

The overall environment, scenery, building, lake views is 5/5. The people/service wonderful, 5/5,(shout out for Finn, Bence and Tadgh). The food very good. The internet service mixed, 3/5. Value for money, good. The view from the bar is beautiful, 5/5. The main restaurant food is very good; however I have no idea why they didn’t place main dining room with a view of the lake. It could be so much more attractive venue for a special dinner. Overall, would I recommend, yes!

Small very cosy hotel, serving staff may be young but very friendly and professional. Reception staff very helpful and friendly, nothing to much bother. Room was lovely, very reasonably priced. 5 cource fine dining meal was delicious and Adam our server was chatty with a good sense of humour and yet did his job with such professionalism. Looking forward to staying in the winter when the fires are lighting for the cosy atmosphere.

We arrived quite late & very frazzled due to Google Maps! Be careful routing there. The room was in the owners house & not the nice main building. The AC was non existent & and we only had 2 tiny windows to let in any air. It stayed 23-24C the entire time. The furniture was very dated and chipped, stained. The window seat was beyond awkward trying yo shut the blinds for sleep. Getting them closed was a production, not to mention dangerous if someone falls. Dinner stops around 9;30 pm so I decided I just wanted a cheese sandwich toasted which I did receive. That & my ice cream hit the spot. We slept so poorly due to the room heat & no compensation at all wad offered at check out. Maybe the rooms in the main house were better but this was just a sloppy operation.

I would personally like to leave a 5 star review for service received last night in the bar. A waitress named Kate made our experience excellent. She was excellent in attending to our needs and went above and beyond to make our experience remarkable. It is servers like her that make a hotel deserve their 5 stars!

It was a beautiful location. The grounds and rooms were so gorgeous. The staff was fabulous. They all treated us with such kindness and care. They made us feel like we were family. Andrew, Joe, Kate and Jack(?) were especially great. Andrew made sure every wish we had was taken care of. We stayed two nights and wished we could have stayed longer. We want to come back.

We stayed at Lough Rynn on our travels through Ireland. Checking in was a great experience. The porter was super sweet and helpful—definitely the best person we interacted with during our stay. We made a reservation for the casual dining room and headed up to unpack. It was very warm in the room so we turned the air on. It put out hot air, but we figured it would cool off eventually. The room was pretty comfy other than the heat and very clean — somewhat spacious, and the bathroom was lovely. The room needs an update. The comforter and lampshade both had rips. There was no luggage rack. We freshened up and went down for high tea—our first experience with one. They sat us at a table with a dirty tablecloth (stains and crumbs and such). They did change it when my aunt requested it. The server was sweet, but she kept disappearing for long stretches of time. The actual food was cute, tasty, and plentiful, and the tea was delicious. We went sightseeing and came back for our 8pm dinner reservation, but they didn’t have us on the list. They were still able to fit us in, thankfully. We sat at the same table for dinner. The food was delicious and the drinks were ok. The server was missing a lot, and we had to track him down to pay before we could leave. I asked a couple of people if the Dungeon Bar would be open that evening but no one had any answers. We walked the grounds as it was getting dark, and they were definitely the jewel of our experience there. The gardens were particularly gorgeous. When we got back to the room, it was hotter than when we left. The air conditioner was still putting out hot air so we turned it off and opened the window. Thankfully, it was gorgeous outside, and it cooled off inside after a bit. The bed wasn’t super plush, and the pillows were very flat. I loved that they had a makeup mirror in the bathroom. The jewelry they offer for sale was pretty. We went down to the Dungeon, and no one was working it so we just sat down there and played cards. Overall, I think this place could be amazing if they did a bit of a facelift with the worn amenities and brought in more servers (it seemed like they were having to do double duty in both of the dining areas which made for poor service).

A beautiful hotel, we dealt with Jodie Sales & Marketing Manager who was so kind and helpful, wonderful room and a great surprise an upgrade, lakeside views and the most spectacular gardens, a real charming castle with helpful staff, special mention to Tracey the Restaurant Manager another staff member who really took care of her guests, delicious food, wonderful scenery and and a historic location, Lough Rynne really is a fairy tale place
