Aghadoe Heights Hotel & Spa
Certification: Green Hospitality Programme County: Kerry (Aghadoe, Killarney) Type: 5-star spa hotel
Aghadoe Heights Hotel & Spa holds Green Hospitality Programme certification, independently assessed under Ireland’s hospitality sector environmental standard. The hotel has implemented a formal sustainability programme that reflects its position on the hillside above Killarney’s lakes, overlooking Killarney National Park and the lakes of Killarney.
The Certification
The Green Hospitality Programme is Ireland’s hospitality sector environmental standard, independently audited under ISO 17065. Certification requires the implementation of a documented Environmental Management System and performance assessment across energy, water, waste, biodiversity, and community engagement. For a 5-star hotel above a UNESCO-designated biosphere and National Park, ecological management is directly relevant to the guest experience.
The Hotel and Setting
Aghadoe Heights is a 5-star property on the Aghadoe hillside, 3km from Killarney town, with panoramic views across the lakes of Killarney and directly into Killarney National Park. The hotel has 74 rooms and suites, a spa, and a rooftop pool and terrace with lake and mountain views.
The hotel’s elevated position gives it one of the most dramatic settings of any hotel in Killarney: the vista across Lough Leane to the McGillycuddy Reeks and the islands in the lake is unobstructed from the hotel’s public spaces. Aghadoe is part of Killarney’s densely certified eco-hotel cluster, with multiple properties across the town holding independent sustainability certifications.
