Overall our stay here was fantastic!
The apartment size was huge with a balcony and came with an individual sauna, which we have enjoyed very much. The hotel landscape was spectacular and it’s located right opposite of loch Ard, the view was breathtaking. As part of our stay we had complimentary access to the gym/spa facilities, which again we enjoyed a lot.
The only downside is the cleanliness of the apartment, some of our pillows had stains on them, one of the bedroom had a very strong mouldy odor, and the furniture is generally quite old - that being said, many of the previous reviews had commented on this already so we were mentally prepared before booking and there were no other nasty surprises.

The location around the loch was great. The staff was really nice and helpful.
The room itself was spacious with two bathrooms. The main bed was hard but good. The second bed was terrible. It was folded away in the main closet in the living room. The mattress was too short and very thin.
With a minor investment a good sleeping couch would make it very nice and at least 5 stars. But since the whole purpose of a room is sleeping I have it a lower score.
The interior was a bit outdated but very clean, spotless and comfortable.

Rooms were supposed to be ready 5pm, which is fairly late by many hotel standards, nevertheless rooms weren't available until around 7pm. Nice apartments with great views, but no elevators and no help with luggage up 3 floors.

Comfortable but needs an upgrade
Lovely location and comfortable. Our loch side lodge was clean but very dated and the showers were not very effective. Changing rooms in spa also quite shabby.

3Nights Without internet Despite Repeated Assuranc
Unfortunately we did not have internet for 3 nights. And despite informing the hotel mutiple times they promised us to fix it the follwoing day and on the following day it still was not fixed which was extremely inconvenient as we had no coverage on our cellphone.

Lovely location , but with two children there were no dining facilities on offer as the Rafters Bar was not open.
The villa was clean and well equipped.

The location is very good. apartment is average, old looking and dark. stairs leading up to the apartment was unclean and filthy. Front door key was fiddly and difficult to open most of the times.
Sauna was nice and the most important plus point in the apartment.
