From the moment of arrival - the receptionist was incredibly helpful, friendly. Waiting staff were really responsive and warm. The food was delicious with very reasonable portions. Although it was a busy time of year (Easter break), I left really relaxed and rejuvenated. Thanks to the staff and management team.

The setting is absolutely stunning, food was great, room was a little dated but clean and functional. The fire alarm went off four times during the night so we didn't get much sleep.

I have never stayed in such a friendly hotel. The staff were all wonderful and made our weekend. As for the food it was lovely we got so much we couldn't eat it all, even the breakfast had a brilliant choice there was everything you could want. We will definitely go back.

We have been on many LIDL family hotel breaks and this was probably the best one. Excellent location, top notch barfood and breakfast. The staff were very friendly and attentive . The swimming pool was really good as well.The hotel itself also has a lot of character inside and out and the bedroom/ bathroom which have obviously been renovated recently was spacious and spotlessly clean and modern. Overall top notch and would certainly return.

Fourth time staying here. What brings us back apart from the location is the superb staff. Check in was a breeze . We had dinner in the hotel and the quality and choice of the food was fab. Again the staff in the restaurant were great, very friendly and attentive. The location of the hotel is out of this world, we had a great view of the lake from our room. All the attractions of Killaloe are in walking distance. We will return. Gordon and Muriel

Tina scored 4 / 5 on 16/09/2015

I Just returned from a night there, booked it based on the previous reviews. They all seemed too good to be true but.....they were true! This is the first review I've ever bothered to write but I just couldn't let this go. The staff were brilliant, pleasant, friendly and non FAKE!!!! I booked a single room ( yeh I wanted ME time) and was given a huge family room to roam in, it was great, and great value for money. The breakfast was lovely with everything labelled, and a great range of food. The pool/sauna etc were great and the particular man on reception/ pool attendant was SUPER nice, couldn't do enough for me. He gave me a swimming cap, without the usual hassle, even offered me the euro coin for the locker. While it's a lovely spot in a great location, the staff make the place, I'll be back soon with the family. Highly recommend it.

I couldn't praise this gem of a hotel enough. We were very late arriving, 8:45: the restaurant was due to close around then but it stayed open to ensure we got an order in before it closed. The good was top class along with breakfast. A great choice of foods for breakfast. The setting of the hotel is amazing. My only regret is I bad to rush off the next morning. I wil spread the word of this hotel and I will be back again! Brendan

Gordon scored 5 / 5 on 04/06/2015

Location of hotel is fantastic and just a short stroll to the pubs and attractions of Killaloe. The staff were friendly and superb to deal with both at reception and in the restaurant. We had dinner in the hotel and the choice and quality of food were great. We did not use the leisure center or gym but the pool looked lovely...... Our room was spacious and spotless with the bed being extremely comfortable and ensured a great nights sleep. Looking forward to coming back in the not too distant future

Wonderful Hotel, friendly helpful staff and in brilliant location. The food was terrific. The memory of sitting, looking out at the lake and watching the crows roosting while eating great food is a memory that will last a long time.

Bernie scored 3 / 5 on 08/05/2015

Hotel staff very friendly. Leisure centre great-swimming pool perfect for swimmers and children. The food in restaurant and bar was superb and the portion sizes very large. The only down side to the hotel is there is no lift so a little inconvenient with a buggy.

Emmet scored 5 / 5 on 10/04/2015

The Lakeside is a lovely hotel, we stayed for 1 night B&B with an evening dinner. Staff were really friendly, room was nice, clean and spacious, the only thing was the bathroom was a bit dated, could do with an over hall. Evening meal was also lovely, would return to this hotel again in the future

I don't normally write reviews but I had to make the exception to compliment this hotel on it's exceptional facilities, service and value for money we had the pleasure of experiencing last weekend when we stayed at the Lakeside Hotel. This hotel has it all, from luxurious bedrooms to manicured gardens, top class pool facilities including an exhilarating splash slide, crèche drop in facilities for kids, great food, delicious breakfast, relaxed atmosphere and most notably extremely kid friendly. I can't rate this hotel high enough for a short break away with young children. I can't wait to go back and I am recommending a stay here to all of my friends and family. The fine weather certainly allowed us to appreciate the meticulously kept gardens along the water front. Beautiful scenic location with great facilities within walking distance.

Geraldine scored 5 / 5 on 11/02/2014

Spent last Saturday night in The Lakeside Hotel with extended family as it was my father's 93rd birthday. There were more than 30 people including 9 small children. The first person we met was Sinead at reception who is wonderful, kind and friendly. All the rooms were very clean and comfortable and warm. Personally I love the little reading light attached to the bedside lamp - not to be found in most hotels, but so handy if one person wants to read while the other is asleep! The dinner was really good and catered for all our needs including 4 coeliacs. It was all served very efficiently. At the end of the meal they produced a really beautiful birthday cake with candles for the birthday "Dad, Grandad and Greatgrandad"! Thanks to all who made the celebration a very happy event. We will definitely be returning - hopefully before the next birthday.

Stayed here with my husband & 2 kids, we really enjoyed ourselves hotel was lovely & cosy. Rooms were clean and comfortable & spacious . Food in the restaurant was excellent, staff very nice & helpful especially Leisure centre staff. Only problem was pool was extremely cold, we could only stay in for 10 mins with our youngest (1 Year old!) Aside from that I would definitely recommend it as a family friendly hotel!

Martin scored 4 / 5 on 01/06/2013

Spent 3 days here, bed and breakfast. Staff were most welcoming , and all through our stay were very friendly and helpful. Hotel benefits greatly by it's location, and access to Shannon river and Lough Derg. Hotel was very clean and comfortable. Breakfast menu offered plenty of choice, bar food was excellent. Leisure facilities were very good. Lovely walks, nearby. Am looking forward to a return visit. Martin

Sarah scored 4 / 5 on 11/02/2013

I had an enjoyable and relaxing stay at the Lakeside. Breakfast was plentiful if a little lack lustre. Staff extremely friendly and helpful. Leisure facilities good, if a little over run with children and locker rooms wet and a bit dirty. Location is wonderful and I plan to make a return visit, this time with my children as it seems very family friendly. Refurbished rooms were very warm and comfortable. Overall a pleasant place to stay.

Audrey scored 4 / 5 on 18/10/2012

Just stayed 1 night in the lakeside. Its a lovely hotel in a lovely area. Very nice leisure centre. Food was lovely. We ate in the bar which a had much more extensive menu than restaurant. Just 2 complaints; our room was cold and had to ask about turning on heat, which is unusual because most hotel rooms are too hot ! Secondly (a very small one but) had to ring down to get some one up to turn on the tv, turns out there was a switch, much like an immersion switch on the opposite side of the room that had to be turned on for tv to work, not exactly rocket science but whats wrong with the simple button on the wall socket !!! Would definatly go back.

We stayed there for two nights b&b + one evening meal. The staff were great, very friendly and made you feel very welcome. Our breakfasts and eveing meal couldn't be faulted.

Noreen scored 4 / 5 on 21/06/2012

Very friendly and helpful staff the minute we entered the hotel which is an absolute must in my book. We were early so room was a half hour wait and were asked if we wanted to use the leisure pool we could. The room was very spacious but if I was going again wouldn't get ground floor as a little noisy. Breakfast was delicious as was the dinners and again staff always friendly. Pool and changing room was perfect and my two year old really enjoyed it. All in all I could not say enough about the Lakeside. I would recommend it and I myself would go back.

We went to the Lakeside hotel for our parents 40th wedding anniversary it was a wonderful weekend. We had 2 family rooms and 3 double rooms they were all clean and comfortable. The kids had a ball at the swimming pool we spent hours there. The food was excellent. The staff were all very helpful and friendly. We will all go back there again in the future and would recommend it to anyone. It was a home away from home

Chris scored 4 / 5 on 25/01/2012

A lovely homely and welcoming hotel. The staff are very accommodating and pleasant. Hotel is clean and spacious. Breakfast is sumptuous but not wasteful. Restaurant and O'Hara's Menu is varied and of very high calibre with realistic prices. The use of the leisure centre is an added bonus and staff are friendly and helpful. Changing facilities are cramped and not very family friendly. The pool could be better maintained and my hunch is that the water quality is not the best. The children love the slide as it offers hours of fun. All in all - this is a great hotel with a lovely location and we plan to go back and take friends with us. Highly recommended.

Lovely hotel in a beautifull setting. Have stayed before and both the lounge and leisure staff remembered us which is a nice touch, all of the staff very welcoming and obliging.. Pool with large waterslide a great bonus for the kids. Rooms basic enough but a good size. Food in restaraunt and bar very nice. Nice quiet hotel, not at all noisey. Great value for money on the Lidl breaks, will return again.

Michael scored 5 / 5 on 02/10/2011

When we arrived at the hotel, I was not impressed. The building looked old and the area around it was a bit rundown. On entering the hotel, we were met by a very helpful and upbeat receptionist who lifted my sprits. On going to our room, I expected a old fashioned room but what wwe got was a modren, bright, newly done up room. And things only got better after that. Food was great, service was great, views of the river were great. It is a true saying, Never judge a book by its cover. Thanks to the Staff at Lakeside Hotel and Lidl for a great break
