Solid 4 stars. Quality everywhere. Head chef was on duty that night and we are up for a treat. You order fish and chips it's more fish that batter like it usually is. Amazing tastes. Food with a twist of unexpected flavours and textures. House wine well chosen. Hotel is massive but very well run and efficient. Kids club. Warm pool. Check out 12pm. No rush you can enjoy long breakfast. Kudos to the staff and management. A place to come back to.

Guest reviews
Glenroyal Hotel averages 4.2 out of 5 across 2,507 reviews. A selection, quoted as written:
This is overall an excellent hotel for relatively good value - the fitness centre is spectacular (given it serves as a full time (busy) gym) and the pools are solid even if the family one is a little tired. The staff are generally friendly and professional and whilst the wider breakfast options are limited the full English is superbly cooked and has all the options. I was there on a relatively hot weekend which the rooms certainly don’t cope well with, no air con and extremely stuffy with windows that barely open, but to be honest that’s likely not an issue in Ireland 95% of the time.
We stayed for 2 nights, the first night was like trying to sleep in a sauna, horrendous especially with 2 young children, also no proper cot mattresses. We had an air con machine in the room which was good through the day however it was far too loud to sleep with it on. Disappointing. The kids club was great however the swimming pool was one of the coldest we’ve been in. Food was average, some of the staff were lovely however some were rude and unhelpful. No fridges in the rooms so I had to keep milk for my baby in the staff fridge at reception. Lift was also broken so had to carry pram etc downstairs. Wouldn’t return unfortunately
