"I stayed at The Lake Hotel for 4 nights in September and had a fantastic time. It was my second stay in the last 3 years and was all I hoped it would be. I was pulled to the hotel by the location right on the shores of Lough Leane as Killarney National Park and environs are my fave places to ramble and the views while dining or relaxing on the rear side of the hotel just can't be beat. The hotel is very well staffed - friendly, helpful and efficient folks who add so much to the overall experience. My room was spacious, clean and quiet with such a comfortable bed that was very welcoming after long days hiking and walking. The hot water was plentiful and at good pressure, Wi-Fi was strong and reliable and the room was quiet and dark for sleeping. As I was 100% focussed on enjoying the outdoor life that Killarney has to offer as opposed to the charms of the town itself I took all my meals at the hotel. They were of uniformly high quality with sufficient variety to keep me well contented over the 4 nights of my visit. As noted above, in the restaurant or bar you can have spectacular views out over Lough Leane to the mountains beyond that just elevate whatever experience you are having. The only quibble I had was the cost of getting laundry done. There were two partially full bags of basic items that cost 50 Euro. This seemed steep for me BUT I really have no baseline for costing of laundry in Ireland. Nevertheless I would stay here again as it's a great spot with great staff."

"The Killarney Heights was wonderful. The staff were polite and courteous. Dining was lovely! "

"Big, comfortable, well appointed hotel. Caters to families, but all kinds of travelers there. Room was spacious, nicely decorated and relaxing. Restaurants were busy the whole time we were there, with great food and service. Leisure centre was wonderful, especially the pool. "

"Very comfortable hotel, close to nightlife. Good food and very pleasant staff. "

"Great property and only steps to great restaurants and the beach. Very comfortable beds. I highly recommend the edge restaurant. The food and service was fantastic. Breakfast at the hotel was delicious as well. They had every option you could imagine. "

"Newer hotel in a great location, walkable to everything! Hotel offered a welcome drink and breakfast was included. "
