This family run hotel has exceptional customer engagement &experience at its heart. Each staff member touch points reflects this central ethos perfectly.
Our check in began with the owner welcoming us with a glass of prosecco on arrival from Ray, who is a member of senior management and as we later discovered, one of the owners. This was a very welcome surprise but only a seaway as to what was to follow.
Molly, managed the reception desk like a captain of an ocean going vessel. Deft almost imperceptible touches brought us through the process seamlessly.
We were brought through to the bar area for our lunch and once again, the customer centricity ethos shone through.
Catalogue took our order after offering his personal favourite dishes from a well considered menu.
My chowder was the best I have enjoyed in Ireland to date, and this is a go to dish for me. The Guinness bread was super, the perfect accompaniment.
Later, our room offered an absolutely dynamic view of our end of Lough Ree, sweet!
Dinner was a trip down seafood central as we opted for the seafood sharing dish (which I would earnestly recommend) and gound a gru vee on the wine menu.
Kash was a muse of information and was delighted to impart his intricate & indepth knowledge of the wine menu.
The professionalism that each and every waiter on the floor was shining through.
At this stage, you can clearly see that my experience here was exemplary.
When you can come here, book a place and unwind.
We will be back.

Room tip: Leave your daily concerns behind. Bring your bathing suit and enjoy the hot tubs.

Here for dinner, bed and breakfast on a Friday evening. Excellent from start to finish. Greeted with prosecho on arrival before being shown to our room. Location is magical. I'm sure there is loads of stuff to do but equally you can just chill.
Restaurant and hotel very busy but in a good way. Food is excellent and I found staff to be very friendly and professional.

We went to Wineport Lodge on a Saturday afternoon to scope it out for an event. There were several tables free on the patio and we would like to have sat and have a drink. A very officious front desk man told us that we couldn't have a drink, we must eat as well!!
This place has Celtic Tiger notions of itself. We won't be back. We went to another hotel across the lake where we couldn't have been more welcome.

Amazing food, service and location. Upon arrival you are greeted by very pleasant staff and offered a glass of champagne. The rooms overlooking the lake are beautifully decorated. The food was exceptional. I would highly recommend the sea food platter.

Arrived today to celebrate our wedding anniversary. So far it's been just outstanding. Bubbles 🥂 on arrival, amazing bedroom with beautiful lake views, and outstanding customer service. Dinner tonight was absolutely delicious. Really looking forward to the spa tomorrow, and all the delights in store.
