I cannot recommend Lough Rea Hotel and spa highly enough. We had our wedding with them last weekend and what an experience it was. Karl, Jennifer and all the staff we fantastic. Every guest said the food was amazing and the service second to none. We were so well looked after and we will be forever grateful

We stayed there for 2 nights in February. The room was nice and we had a lake view however the hotel and the lake are separated by housing estates which diminished the views. The staff is really nice and friendly. The food in the restaurant was great and extremely good value for money. The Spa is also very nice but... More

This hotel was lovely the nice staff/reception & breakfast. I have enjoyed our stay with yourself, the only part I found a bit strange that the place was a bit deserted for a big hotel like that. Otherwise everything was nice.

Ok but biggest problem was public toilets lighting- so dark can't hardly see in there. Told Receptionist who said permanent setting so could not brighten it. Also the draught beers weren't great. Pity because otherwise it was lovely.

Lovely rooms, excellent service. Unfortunately we didn't have time to use the spa but it looked lovely. Comfy beds and rooms well appointed. Great breakfast selection - cooked to order including omelettes. Would stay here again!

This hotel is a gem. Friendly helpful staff, very nice spa, great bar and bar food and heavely beds. The spa is great quality with very professional yet friendly staff. It was a lovely way to spend an afternoon after a long walk in the hills around Loughrea.

I stayed at this hotel for 4 nights in April and was generally impressed. The rooms were pretty cheap (about £60 a night inc breakfast) and the quality of the room was definitely well above average. I ate in the bar one night and was disappointed with the food but the atmosphere and decor were pretty nice. If you are... More

Stayed here as part of our honeymoon and was very impressed by the level of service. Rooms were modern, spacious and clean. Breakfast was great with various options available - fry up, continental, cereals etc. Service in the bar at dinner time was a liitle slow although we were in no rush. Overall a great trip.

Stayed in this hotel almost 4 weekends ago. Booked a double room for myself and my partner. While the rooms looked nice, a very uncomfortable nights sleep was had as our "double bed" was actually two single beds pushed together and kept slipping apart. Breakfast was very disappointing. The sausages very rubbery and the mushrooms soggy. Even the coffee wasn't... More
