Beautiful place to stay. Very comfortable beds helpful staff. Breakfast basic but OK. Right in the middle of the national park and christain settlement of Glenalough. Was able in the middle of comming and going to find a peaceful retreat in the wicklow mountains and the hostel places of rest. Was truly lovely. Recommend sleep protectors for light sensitive. And a lovely cafe up the road for vegetarians and those wanting something more healthy. Just a short drive

Stayed here as part of a cycling group and the facilities are fine. Rooms are basic but clean and relatively spacious. Bedding provided. Breakfast can be pre -booked with good continental and cooked options available at reasonable cost. Facilities for self catering look good also. Improvements needed on the shower system, reported by all members of our group across various rooms. Hopefully this can be improved. Location is good and is convenient to local hotel for dinner and drinks etc as required. Room provided for bike storage however it would be good if this could be locked at night. Basic but would certainly return.

The location is really the only good thing about this hostel. I've stayed in many hostels before, but really never experienced i) that the flush of the only toilet in the 8-bed dorm does not work properly, ii) the water in the shower does not flow out so that you stand in the dirt of other 7 people / cannot even turn it on anymore without flooding the whole place, iii) the bedsheets are not set and the worst, the ones provided have disgusting stains. The price charged is absolutely ridiculous for what you get here.

The staff are reserved but friendly. The bed sheets are dirty and the hostel could do with renovation. The kitchen is a big space which is very useful for cooking. There is chess and connect 4 and a pool table . This is why could be good if you are bored The hostel is beside a hiking trail with plenty of different routes. There is a vending machine but it doesn't work properly which isn't efficient.

Spent a night hear with 2 friends and was very accommodating for our stay, even with us coming back late from being outside. Staff very friendly and easygoing and rooms in th ebest condition I've ever seen of a hostel. The only reason it would fall short of 5 stars was that the breakfast was poor despite costing €7 per person.

mmmm .... very hostel experience....... for an almost hotel price .... Booking was 'difficult' ... not on Hostelworld or any of the other booking sites. I rang and was given an email address. Emailed ... day or two later, received a reply, had to pay 10% deposit. All felt very odd. Not sure if this was because it was December ... or whether this is how it always is ? I booked here, because we wanted to cook - two of our group are vegan. But really, for the price we paid per room ...... we could have stayed at a 'nice' B & B up the road for almost the same price ! I've stayed here once before (and it must have been 'hostel priced'), I now consider it, 'expensive' (for what it is). No towel provided ... but I figured at the price we were paying - we should at least have a towel ... went and got them !!

L'établissement est parfaitement situé, à proximité du site monastique et des sentiers de randonnée. Propre et chaleureux, à l'image de la salle commune avec ses grands canapés, il propose des places en dortoir et en chambres privées spacieuses et dotées d'une grande salle de bain. Cependant, à l'inverse des autres auberges visitées, pas de tablette avec éclairage individuel et prise usb ; l'éclairage de la pièce est central, ce qui peut être gênant lorsque certains veulent dormir et d'autres pas. Qui plus est, douches brûlantes et difficilement réglables. Cuisine bien équipée (mais matériel de cuisson vraiment usé) mais peu fonctionnelle (on se "marche" dessus). Possibilité de prendre un petit-déjeuner pour 9 euros (contre 4 à Cork). Vu les tarifs pratiqués (150 euros la nuit, monopole oblige), celui-ci pourrait être inclus. Accueil sympa et pro.
