Quaintly old fashioned property in gorgeous position beside a river in the Wicklow Hills beside an ancient ruined church.

The accomodation was fine except that the soap dispensers and TV didn’t work. Also the service in the restaurant was below par.

The hotel is very old and in need of refurbishment. The bed was clean and very comfortable but there were a lot of spiders around the windows. Breakfast was very basic!

Hôtel très bien situé avec un bon restaurant pour les repas du soir. Déjeuner correct, chambres et salles de bain qui auraient besoin d’un petit rafraîchissement.

We loved this classic hotel with old world charm. Situated on a creek and adjacent to a park, there were endless hiking trails to be explored. We loved stumbling upon the St Savior Church remains on our forest walk. Our room was spacious and the water pressure for showering outstanding— many other hotels we’ve visited could learn something from this hotel. Breakfast was the standard English Breakfast that we’ve tired of after nearly 3 weeks of travel. Please consider offering something a little interesting sometime— like a waffle, or crepe. Overall, we had a great time and would happily return.

This lovely hotel, with older charm and character, is perfectly located to walking and hiking trails, and a 2 minute stroll to the monastic ruins. Our room was comfortable, spacious and clean, as was the bathroom. The tub/shower was a bit of a high step, but grab bar was perfect help. Breakfast in the morning was buffet-style with good variety. I wish we had time to stay longer than just overnight.

A very young, untrained and uncouth staff - coming off as rude and checked out as a result. This place could be amazing. Bedrooms were solid. Reception staff and waiter/bar staff unbelievably rude. I hate not to leave 20%....but I simply could not do it here. The food is mediocre, as indicated on other sites. Head down to the restaurant down the street by foot or car for great craic and great food at same price: Wicklow Heather, with a free shuttle back to the hotel if you do stay there. The kitchen also fuels the fast food bar at the entrance, which is always packed. I'm multi-lingual, no stranger to Ireland, my native land, and expect people to be friendly and polite. I stayed in 6 hotels on this trip, and the other 5 were great, both high and low end. My wife and adult kids hated this place. This place needs a few solid managers who want repeat customers.

Breakfast was poor. Scrambled eggs looked grey/yellow, fried eggs sat on a plate looking hard boiled.

A charming and old hotel on beautiful grounds and walkable to Glendalough Cathedral. Hotel needs serious updates and maintenance. Broken coffee machines, fire extinguishers hanging on by a thread to the wall. Staff (other than a bartender) were not impressive and food was meh. Staff is worked hard.

We were fortunate to have the most perfect weather. Gorgeous area, hiking all around-wonderful place to stay for lap of the gap race.

The boiler or some such motor was running during the late evening and I found it difficult to get to sleep. Breakfast was good but the eggs were left on the heat to over cook to rubber like....
