We absolutely loved our stay at the Glenroyal! Everything was very clean and the beds were lovely. The Shoda Cafe and Arkle Bar both were exceptional, and we had one particular server in the bar (Katie), who was fantastic!

I absolutely loved this hotel, it’s in a beautiful, quiet town with shops and a park nearby and the rooms are just superb. I remember even showing my friends the bathroom and they had the same reaction, jaws were dropped on how absolutely nice they were! Even front desk were kind, was able to have a good chat with some of them. Definitely would go there, when visiting the country again.

We booked this property so that we had a closer drive to the Dublin airport for our flight to the next morning. I wish they did rooms with two queen beds instead of a queen bed and a single. We had to get two rooms for a family of four, which was very expensive. The Expedia listing said that the property had an arcade/game room, which turned out to be for a little kids. They should be clearer that it is for young children. My teenage boys were disappointed. Parking is quite chaotic for this hotel, as it competes with a shopping plaza and the leisure center, which is open to the public.. The breakfast was really amazing at this hotel,

Lovely stay at Glenroyal. This is the 3rd year we’ve visited and it lived up to previous expectations. Everything is tastefully presented and well maintained. Family room very comfortable and suitably spacious for 4 people. The kids loved the little adventurers club and swimming pool. Had a lovely meal in the enclosure restaurant too. Hope to be back another time!

Rooms were hot(16-18degrees outside)- we had a mobile air conditioning unit in the room but this was too noisy to keep on. Other rooms had a fan you could use. Obviously a real problem if a good night’s sleep is important to you. Hotel was fine otherwise
