This hotel could be great but they know they have a monopoly in Glendalough and therefore make no effort at all and still charge high prices. The breakfast is particularly insulting.
If you have a car I highly suggest looking at some of the very good guest houses in the area

Leisure stay - was competing in the lap the gap marathon. Disappointed they didn’t make more of an effort for participants - I.e. an early breakfast, they provided a pre packed bag but it wasn’t suitable as a pre race meal. Staff could be more cheerful.

The Glendalough Hotel is located near the Glendalough Monastery which makes it the perfect location for walks and discoveries of the nearby visitor attractions. It offers a unique atmosphere due to the amazing surroundings close to nature but also to the old churchyard and monasteric city. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would stay there again.

Amazing location that allowed us to take advantage of the quiet mornings and evenings - after the tour buses leave. Comfortable beds, clean and comfortable room, good breakfast. Front desk staff could use some customer service coaching.

Hotel in a beautiful area .
However, grossly overpriced.
Despite costing a fortune had to wait 15 minutes for someone to appear at check-in at 7pm on a Saturday.

The location is amazing. When the crowds clear out, take a hike after dinner and experience the trails and the ruins in peace. Serenity. Hotel was quaint. Food was good.

Unique property that sits adjacent to a charming historical site within easy walking distance. Very peaceful and clean.
We stayed in late September, so lack of air conditioning wasn’t an issue. The heat was very comfortable during the night.
We were pleasantly surprised that the food was very delicious after reading previous reviews.
Would definitely recommend.

Old hotel with a pub and restaurant right next to lots of walking and hiking trails. We had a nice old room on first floor overlooking river and valley. It was offseason in early April, so no people congestion anywhere. One could see how busses full of people probably clot the place up in high season.
