Overall Ratings & Reviews 3 Lakes Hostel

We didn't realize there would be 0 towels in the room with getting one for 2 Euro each. Also, parking lot was way too small.

They make an appreciated effort to help with parking and the lady at the front desk was very kind. On the minus side the room lacks power outlets, the shower lacks shelves or anything you can use to put your shampoo on, and other guests in the room were loud and inconsiderate.

Great location, take a taxi to Killarney National Park and see the wonderful views. They have friendly staff and a great looking kitchen and lounge room

Lovely stay at this hostel. Everything was fantastic

The carpet in our room was dirty. We didnt have towels.

It was just fine, 3 people in Dorm very friendly

Spacious and clean room.

Asked for a fifth bed to be put into the room. Rightfully got charged for the fifth bed but when we arrived there was no fifth bed for us. Shocking

no heating in room

We stayed at 6 different locations and places all over Ireland and this was the only one that I would NOT recommend. I will try and add photos from my phone, but this was bad. I booked a 4-bed for myself and my daughter (the only option available) and considering that this place is almost brand-new our room was in a pitiful condition and the bathroom dirty. The front desk never volunteered any information you specifically had to ask for everything. The air in the room was very (!) hot and stuffy and even leaving the window open for 3 full days brought little relief. Even after requesting the bathroom to be cleaned nothing happened and the breakfast is a joke. For backpackers in dorms it may be ok due to the cheap price but for us it really wasn't cheap. The rooms are more than just basic - there literally is nothing but the beds and the outlets. No hangers, no shelves, tables... nothing. Not even a picture on the wall. The first time that I ever have stayed at a place where even my relatively low expectations have been undercut - I consider a hostel / hotel mainly a place to sleep and don't need any fancy stuff but I can not recommend anyone to choose this place. There are many B&Bs and other places to stay at and those are closer to downtown too.

Nice place to stay at, remember it is a hostel not hotel. Room are clean, we took a quadruple family room and we had a good experience.

Private room expensive. Facilities good and newer

Breakfast was bad.

We arrived late and were welcomed then showed to our rooms. There was only one washer and dryer which was surprising for a facility this size. Breakfast area was good with plenty of the basics you prepared yourself and then washed your own dishes which was fine. The kitchen was well equipped to do your own cooking. Facility was clean!!! Well maintained!!!

Booked a room with double bed and bunk bed but when we arrived we got 2 sets of bunk beds!! So when your booking make sure it's a family room not quadruple room as the only rooms with double bed is family room...even though it stated on email that we were getting double and bunk.we got a small discount..thank God we were only staying one night. Not a thing in the room only beds, no chair,table or towels in bathroom we definitely won't be staying there again!!

The common facilities were in very good condition. Kitchen is well equipped, enough for many to use. This is a good family hostel. However , a minor improvement could be done to the rooms by adding a slim table to put things

Met nice people at the hostel. It has the communal living experience.

Comfortable,good location and very helpful staff,only sorry we couldn't stay longer but hostel was full

Very clean nice and quiet, handy for ring of Kerry

Inexpensive lodging with no frills. It is very basic, but decent. Staff was nice and helpful.
