Stayed for 1 night for New Year’s Eve, On arrival it was full of kids running around screaming in the bar, couldn’t have a conversation, it said online there was a library room where you could relax with a drink but that was locked. Lunch was ok very basic food, (ham and cheese bap and Pasta and jar of tomato sauce) and the staff all looked to be very young & inexperienced, didn’t have good hospitality training at all. The girl barista was extremely rude. You also couldn’t leave a credit card on your room to just add all your expenses like all normal hotels,this also caused a lot of confusion for the meal package that was booked, the lady at the front desk it seemed it was her first day on the job. There was about 4 managers walking around but it would have been better if they trained the staff. We were really banking on the woodland restaurant being as good as it said online, firstly the pictures online don’t look at all what it was, for Christmas there wasn’t even a tree, lights or a painting on the wall, cheap tables and chairs with over head bright spotlights, zero dining experience atmosphere,food was pub grub, deserts and cocktails were the saving grace, we went back to the bar for the new years celebration which was the late late on the telly and a guy playing guitar badly, rarely leave bad reviews but this is honest and how it was, serious improvements need to be made to call it a 4 star.

Breakfast was not included which I was surprised at as I had searched hotels. com looking for breakfast included. I thought the price was fair if the room had of included breakfast. Not a big deal, but a little disappointing

This is a very beautiful property. The rooms are well equipped with a Great coffee making facilities. Food was delicious. I don’t mind at both informal and formal restaurants.

Pleasant hotel in a great setting. A bit overpriced though for what you get in terms of room quality and size

We had a great stay at Glenview and the surrounding Wicklow mountains areas. The hotel is easy to get to (2 minutes off the motorway), has a bunch of history, and is very well decorated with loads of amenities - a bar, a pool/gym, restaurant, walking trail, and more. Our only criticisms were that there's very little soundproofing through the rooms (people walking in the hallways, watching TV, etc. travels easily), almost no airflow so it gets stuffy unless you have a window open, and the rooms and bathrooms could use a bit of an updating as things are a bit dated or attention to detail in the refurbishment wasn't done as good as expected of a 4 star hotel. Overall, staff were very nice and we would stay here again.

The pictures on Expedia were very decieving showing pictures of freshly renovated bathroom. Our shower was clearly very old and had hair left on the wall from the previous guest. Overpriced and poorly managed. The outdoor hot tub was out of order.

I thought the furnishing of the bedroom could be better. There was no chest of drawers for instance. Not much thought had been put into it. The staff were very helpful especially a front of house chap (I think he was called Roberto, from Guatamala ) He was exceptionally kind and helpful!

Charity and Robert made our stay nice. However this hotel is a YMCA, do not go here to even relax it’s a shame cause they have an amazing view. In the summer they host swimming classes for kids. It’s fills with Kids and parents all around screaming Guest can nottt enjoy a quiet day at the pool until 7 pm Even you get hungry no snack even given pass 9pm No taxis. It’s a crewfew location. Not worth staying there.

Nice hotel in a secluded spot although hard to spot from the road and nearly drove past it. Has a slightly dated feel to it but its well maintained and clean. Has a nice garden bar and a walk in the surrounding grounds which was a nice addition. Plenty of parking and close access to the motorway for getting to places. Late 12pm check out is also handy.

Shockingly over priced, stayed on business. Would never stay again.

This hotel is dated. Not old in a charming European way, just old. The carpets were shabby and tattered, the ancient blow dryer barely worked and there were no usb ports. There were also no amenities that you usually expect in a 4* hotel. No robes, no slippers, no towel warmer, no mini fridge. One of the things they did have that should have been great was a beatiful pool. Unfortunately when we went to use it, the pool was filled with local children taking swim lessons. There was no place for actual hotel guests to swim for most of the day. The waitstaff was friendly and attentive but the food was mediocre and expensive. When we arrived our room had 1 towel and the worst pillows I have ever slept with! House keeping never came to service our room. I would not reccomended this hotel.

I arrived in the middle of the night due to a flight delay. The gentleman on reception could not have been more friendly and welcoming. I cannot recommend this hotel enough. Excellent service.
