Harvey's Point  

I have stayed in many top quality hotels both in Europe and Ireland, all 5 star, this was the one hotel that far exceeded all my expectations! I only realised later that is 4 star and for the life of me I cannot understand this. The hotel is truly amazing, rooms out of this world and I can't say enough about the quality of the staff employed. The location on the edge is just so beautiful and the Blue Stack mountains surrounding same equally so. If you really feel the need to get away from it all and feel peace and tranquility, this is the place for you. The value for money was excellent and I know I will return again and again. It is a true "find". Best hotel I have ever stayed in in all my 46 years, and I am certainly one when chosing a hotel I want quality and Harvey's Point has all that and more. Sharon Kennedy, Kildare

The only small complaint I would have is as regards the food in the Bar. The portions were rather small and the vegetables were non-existent. The meno didn't properly represent what you actually got on your place, however the quality of the food was excellent.

The service and the lovely fruit which came with the fry the next morning.

The room was gorgeous and food at wedding reception we were attending amazing

On returning to our room after wedding reception we met two "security men" in corridor. They told us they had another two floors to patrol and we "better be gone" on their return. I found this insulting as although it was late we were whispering as we stood outside our room and not causing any disturbance. I found their tone aggressive and told them there was need to talk to us in this way (we were standing in our room at this point) My friend told them they had got the wrong people and if there had been a complaint about noise it wasnt us. Their response to this was "get your facts straight dear". I don't drink and my memory of the whole incident is perfectly clear to me. I would have mentioned it at checkout but members of the bridal party were there and I didnt want to bother them with it. The rest of our stay was so great, its such a pity about that whole incident as it left us with a very bad taste in our mouths. I understand that perhaps there can sometimes be a problem with unruly guests but we certainly were not and did not deserve to be talked to in such a disrespectful way. Their attitude might be appropriate dealing with drunken and aggressive revellers outside a nightclub but certainly one which I would not expect from staff in a hotel of harvey points standard

The location and the size of the rooms

Hairs in the bath and a piece of toe nail in the bed. It all looked a little tirde

The location is beautiful.

For the price of the hotel & dinner for two nights we could have had a week in Portugal. I want to stay in Ireland for weekend breaks but when I was on my way home on Sunday I just felt I had been ripped off. Don't stay in this hotel if the only rooms available are in the Courtyard. They are very cold and dull.

I liked the spacious rooms which I thought were very luxurious warm and friendly staff and excellent food in the hotels gourmet restaurant. A really nice setting for a short or long weekend break

First of all,we have never arrived at a Hotel with such a warm welcome. It started with the offer of a glass of Proseco as we relaxed before going to our room.Watching the swans on Lough, as we sipped, gave us an indication of the relaxation that we were to experience during our recent two night stay at the remarkable Harvey's Point on recommendation from friends. The staff were very helpful, friendly and kind in their response to our concerns and needs. It is by far the Best we have Ever experienced. We are truly fortunate to have experienced Harvey's Point and hope to return in the future.

It was for a wedding so the day was great. We were in a basic room that was on the lake and that was a beautiful view

The room was nice but the bathroom was very poor. Remined me of the 80'S. could do with an update. I saw the premium rooms and they were amazing

The luxury of the rooms. Cudnt have asked for better.

The menu. Was hard to order as I didn't no what anything was. Too fancy for me. Steak was cooked to perfection though.

Harveys point should be a 5 star hotel. It has everything you could wish for and more. We stay here a few times per year and it never fails to satisfy. The staff make you feel so special. We cruise every year on holidays but tha food at Harveys is a gastronomic delight. The rooms are amazing and among the most comfortable we have ever stayed in.

Air of relaxation

Stayed one night for a family wedding. Athough outstandingly expensive, everything about Harvey's Point is exceptional. Could not find fault with anything! If reallly pushed .... perhaps a hook by the shower to hang a towel :) Will go back when I have saved up enough for a long weekend.

Price

the restaurant was excellent from the layout of the room that made the most of the excellent views of the lake, to the professionalism of the staff and the quality of the food.

The only criticism I would have is that the dinner menu did not vary at all between the first and second night. It would have been more interesting to have had a different choice.
