The Glenside Hotel

Nice family run hotel, excellent hospitality

From the outset, an excellent stay and full details are below. I would happily recommend this hotel if you need to stay local. We travelled on Friday 5th into Saturday 6th April 2024. We were a golf society consisting of 20 blokes. We only grabbed this hotel last minute as our original booking cancelled in Drogheda town centre. We booked 13 rooms in the hotel. Regarding my twin room, it was clean and tidy, a good size with a small double and a single bed, a small but perfectly adequate bathroom with a shower and no bath. There was a tv with usual local channels and tea/coffee making facilities in the room. Upon request an iron and ironing board (both full size) were left outside the door. Dinner We requested menus and forwarded a pre-order to keep things simply. Mains and deserts with complimentary tea and coffee after. Dinner was excellent, good quality food, good portions (lamb shank was clearly the best choice for info) and the bill including a gratuity was €600 (€30pp) Breakfast Usual setup with juices, pastries etc sitting out. Tea/Coffee was made fresh and a small sensible hot food menu was provided and cooked fresh. Again excellent meal and not a complaint to be had. In summary we used this hotel as a last minute change and not one of our party had any complaint. We would happily book again if we are playing golf in the area.

Lovely hotel, however not a lovely experience! Travelling as a female alone from the UK, on arrival there were some very drunk and rowdy women in the bar. The receptionist apologised for the noise coming from the bar and I went to my room. I was worn up at 1.30am to some of the most disgusting language I have ever heard, clearly the same women having a drunken and aggressive row in the next room. I tolerated this for almost an hour before deciding enough was enough, I was starting to feel really unsafe. I dialled 0 for the 24hr reception almost continually for the next 45 minutes, NO ONE ever answered!! The screaming, shouting and swearing continued until just after 3am. I did not feel safe in this hotel, I’m a regular traveller for business and have never, ever felt unsafe in a hotel before. I seriously hope there is never a genuine emergency after hours in this hotel as the 24hr reception will not come to your help!

I attended a wedding here it was a 10/10 experience. The staff are all very accommodating, friendly and quick. The food was delicious, the rooms were spotless. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and would highly recommend!

My husband and I had our 50th wedding anniversary party in the Glenside Hotel. I cannot praise the team enough. It was a wonderful event. Everything was organised down to the last little detail with even a first look at the room before the guests arrived, which was absolutely beautiful. The food was hot and plentiful and cake was first class. We had many compliments on the night about how perfect it all was. It was such a great experience and I am glad to be able to share it with others.

From start to finish without doubt the most wonderful experience. The Hotel is on the flat and our suite with four poster bed was simply gorgeous. The staff were all extremely friendly, welcoming and helpful and it's a handy location with short enough drives to historical sites and places of interest such as Mellifont Abbey, The Irish war museum and Monasterboice. We ate in Henrys restaurant both nights and had our breakfast in the bar. The food was delicious and reasonably priced and again the staff were so helpful.and accommodating.. look forward to planning a return visit for sure

After a long day in Emerald Park in Ashbourne we as 12 of us 6 kids and 6 adults arrived at the Glenside hotel and it was a great experience. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The food we had was excellent and the quality was of a very high standard. The rooms were very comfortable and very clean. The Breakfast was very varied and plentiful and again of a high standard. Last but not least the 11.00 am checkout was great. Overall a great stay and good value for money. I would strongly recommend staying there. Thank you staff.

This is an excellent Hotel and very easy to get to from the M1 motorway or Airport. It is a small comfortable hotel and the food is excellent. All the staff are friendly and very welcoming. It is very close to Laytown and Bettystown beach and Pitch and putt courses. We are looking forward to our next visit.
