Wellness: Sionna Spa with Ériu Thermal Suite

“Killaloe Hotel & Spa's setting on Lough Derg is undeniably a draw, though some may find the interiors a touch dated. While the spa aims for holistic wellness, some guests might find certain aspects, like the bar area, not quite hitting the mark for a traditional Irish experience. Overall, it strikes me as a spot with genuine potential, especially for lakeside leisure.”
