On the shores of spectacular Lake Placid, its mirror-like waters reflecting the majestic Adirondack Mountains, sits Lake Placid Lodge. The distinctive Arts and Crafts style of the Main Lodge and the craftsmanship evident in every detail of the Lodge is extraordinary. Everything from the beds to the great stone fireplaces, have been built by hand by local artisans. From the ample porches and sprawling lawns, enjoy the surrounding natural beauty. A stay at the Lodge revolves around nature and the outdoors; hiking, biking, boating, paddle boarding, skiing and many more. Of course, relaxation is always available as is the excellent farm-to-table cuisine in the Lodge’s restaurants. Meals can be savored on the deck, made even more enjoyable by the spectacular lake and mountain views. 

Cliff House Hotel is in a stunning location, overlooking Ardmore Bay. The hotel’s architecture is truly extraordinary as it has been built right onto the side of the cliff. The bar and outdoor terrace, the restaurant, spa and each guest room all enjoy exceptional views of the expansive bay. With direct access to the sea, the hotel offers numerous outdoor activities, such as ocean kayaking, surfing, whale watching, fishing and rock climbing. There are many beaches nearby and you can walk to St. Declan’s Well on the famous Cliff Walk. Local attractions such as Lismore Castle and the Midleton Whiskey distillery are easy to reach from Ardmore.

This sophisticated hotel, ideally located next to Saint-Olaf’s church, right in the heart of a city that combines medieval charm with hectic modern living, enjoys a tranquil setting in the old town. The Three Sisters Hotel is a remarkable combination of three merchant houses built in 1362, with passages and secret stairways that link the different floors. The contemporary décor is the perfect foil for magnificently-restored period features, such as the ceiling frescoes rediscovered under fourteen layers of wallpaper and the wooden crane once used to hoist supplies into the house. This fascinating abode attracts celebrities and royal families. Restaurant Bordoo is the perfect place for a late breakfast, a leisurely lunch or a gourmet dinner paired with one of the 300 wines from its cellar.
