Beautifully situated on Killarney town’s largest lake, Lough Lein, The Europe Hotel and Resort boasts one of the most enviable views in Ireland, with lake, mountain or garden vistas everywhere you look.


What's more, this modern five star gem is set on Ireland's most famous driving route, the Ring of Kerry, and is surrounded by some of the world’s oldest established parkland golf courses and championship link courses.


Open since 1965, this impressive resort may now be over fifty years old but it has continuously reinvented itself and continues to outshine many a new top level destination.


It offers exceptional  amenities, notably the stunning 50,000 square foot ESPA at The Europe with its many treatment rooms, saunas, steam rooms, indoor and outdoor pools, ice fountain and relaxation areas, along with a state-of-the-art conference and events centre.


The impressively spacious public areas – glass walled to make full use of the hotel’s wonderful location - are contemporary, yet the style is elegant, comfortable and in no way competing with the setting, which is emphatically the star here.


Guest rooms are luxurious and very chic - renowned for their generous space and quality furnishings, they have beautiful lake and garden views and also generous balconies all along the lake side of the hotel.


Housekeeping is exemplary and, perhaps unexpectedly, this is a very family-friendly hotel - of the many activities offered, there are plenty to interest all ages including indoor tennis and horse riding.


When it comes to food, The Europe has always taken pride in showcasing locally sourced seasonal produce, and there are several very different but equally appealing dining options to choose from. The aptly named main dining venue, where both breakfast and dinner are served, is The Panorama Restaurant, while The Brasserie Bar and Restaurant offers a casual dining option with patio dining as well as indoor seating - and the delightful Spa Café offers lighter, health-conscious menus that have a broad appeal.


With its location on The Ring of Kerry, the hotel is the perfect gateway for exploring Kerry’s iconic attractions such as Killarney National Park, The Gap of Dunloe, The Wild Atlantic Way (the world’s longest defined coastal touring route), the Skellig Islands and the Dingle Peninsula.


And there's a wealth of activities nearby, including walks, drives and cycling routes on the Ring of Kerry and Dingle Peninsula, while golfers have easy access to the many impressive links and parkland courses of the South West of Ireland, with a landing pad on site to allow for private helicopter transfers to courses further afield.


All round, a very special destination.
