Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Arrived tired after a long drive for our first visit to this hotel. We were met at reception by Adrienne who was so helpful and genuine and immediately made us feel very welcome..... before we knew it our check in was complete. This quiet, friendly and relaxed efficiency was evident everywhere throughout our stay. Itwasn’t as if we requested anything out of the ordinary, but all our requests were met and dealt with in the same great manner and with a smile.

The facilities are certainly luxurious, very clean, and everything has been adapted around Covid measures so there is a feeling of safety and spaciousness for guests to enjoy throughout the hotel. The lobby area for example, though a large double height space, always felt cosy with lots of comfy chairs and couches which were in use throughout the day.

I wouldn’t be the best swimmer but the pool here was large, lovely and warm, and with controlled numbers every hour so I swam every day and enjoyed it.

The golf facilities are exceptional and I have given them a separate review.

Our room was very spacious with a great view over a very challenging golf teebox.......everything was spotless, the bathroom luxurious with L’occitane touletries and the fluffiest of robes. The bed was very comfortable with crisp white linen.

Breakfasts most enjoyable, homemade soda bread delicious ( got the recipe!) and we ate in both the bar and restaurant for evening meals, and can recommend them both.

Prices in the restaurants are what you would expect for a 5 star hotel ( but maybe somebody mightt take a look at the pricing on the wine list which even for a 5 star seemed a bit steep and was our only quibble) but the hotel offers exceptional value 2 night b&b and one dinner midweek deals so I can highly recommend overall.

I would return in a heartbeat.

Thanks Druid’s Glen!

Stayed at druids glen for a birthday celebration recently, staff went above and beyond to ensure it was marked in excellent style. Staff are truly lovely throughout, we enjoyed excellent professionally delivered massage in the spa. The food and staff were excellent with adherence to covid hygiene obvious throughout, the smoked salmon starter particularly delicious. Room was absolutely fantastic supplied with beautiful toiletries. I will definitely go back, some commented that it was very expensive well it was our experience that you got what you paid for and then some more. I would without hesitation recommend this hotel. Thank you all so very much.

My family and I stayed recently for two nights in this beautiful hotel while attending a Wedding.
Check in was smooth and efficient and the front desk staff were very welcoming.

We were fortunate enough to be upgraded to a superior family room and discovered a few treats waiting for us on arrival, courtesy of the General Manager, which was a wonderful surprise.

The food and service at both the Wedding and the restaurant was first class and we found the staff to be professional yet friendly.

In my opinion the Hotel has implemented and adhered to a strict COVID policy and this is evident in the cleanliness of the public areas throughout the hotel. There was also plenty of hand gel available and the Hotel encouraged guests to wear face coverings.

It is necessary to book a slot for the pool which lasts 40 minutes and we found the pool area spotlessly clean and the water was the perfect temperature.

Overall we really enjoyed our stay here and we look forward to returning in the near future. I would highly recommend a staycation in the amazing Druid's Glen.

We booked and stayed during the Covid-19 pandemic. I must say I was slightly worried about travelling however all concern disappeared when we arrived. The hotel was set up well for dealing with social distancing and was clean and well sanitised. Check in went smoothly and the room was lovely, large and very clean. Daily Housekeeping was cancelled, however, this could be requested during the stay. This prevented unnecessary persons from entering the room. The swimming pool was well managed with booking necessary and assigned zones once in the pool. Breakfast and dinner was lovely and service was fantastic. Daily/evening movies were played in a designated area for the children. The outdoor play area was open and we were able to avail of the lovely 6km walk around the grounds. Very good hotel, would highly recommend.

Amazing golf course which my husband thoroughly enjoyed. Great playground for kids. Beautiful room and lovely location however the food is of a poor quality and portions are extremely small. As we had a small child with us we prefer to eat in the bar however the menu for our two day stay didn't change so for lunch both days and dinner both days we had to order from the exact same menu. Prices are also quite high for the standard of food. Portions are very small and food is quite bland. The breakfast is poor and there seems to be no system in place for who is serving who amongst the staff. We had originally booked our swim sessions for the morning both days and then we received a call to say those times were actually full so we had to go with 3pm. We used the pool the first day unfortunately missed the pool the second day and there was no slots left to go at a later time or the following morning. This is quite disappointing when you pay a large amount of money and can’t use the facilities. I understand it’s difficult due to covid but perhaps the pool could be opened for longer during the day and for later times with kids since it is renowned for being a child friendly hotel. Limited spa treatments on offer No facials on offer.

Myself and my fiancee checked in her on Monday August 10th everything was absolutely fine with check in went smoothly.
We went for a quick swim and then headed down to the bar for dinner, food was absolutely fantastic along with the service, however, at times you could see your drinks sitting on the bar before they made there way to your table. At one point a waiter was standing beside our drinks for a good 5 minutes before having to be asked to bring them to the table. We didn't put much pass on this though but be prepared you could be waiting for your drinks.

We went back to our room to relax after dinner and went to turn on our television when I noticed a used plaster on the back of the remote control. I rang down to reception and when the lady answered the phone she was so apologetic and said a manger would ring us straight back, within 5 minutes a manger, Joey, arrived at our door with a new remote but we expressed our concerns about the cleanliness of the room if a used plaster was missed.

Joey offered us a room change which we kindly accepted but things did not improve when we changed rooms and I had to call him back up to the new room as there was food crumbs on the chairs and all over the floor along with receipts from previous guests and hair clips. Joey was very apologetic and said he would get Keith (operations manager) to give us a call the next morning.

When we got in contact with Keith he was extremely apologetic and very professional in his approach to dealing with the matter which Joey was too when we were dealing with him.

Keith overseen a deep clean of our room which was badly needed.

Once these issues were resolved and the room cleaned we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Druids Glen.

So a massive thank you to Joey & Keith.

Also we dined in the hotel bar & restaurant for the time we were there and the food is fantastic.

I have always wanted to visit Druids Glen and attended a wedding here recently. The wedding day event and dinner was very good and no complaints there. I think though that Covid19 arrangements leave a lot to be desired e.g. cleaning the room. I think the question of whether we want our room cleaned should be asked at check in and not up to us to chase daily for clean towels, clean cups for coffee etc. The food menu was disappointing - I would have hated to stay for a week as it was limited with no specials. We were there three nights. Breakfast was fine but we weren't informed by the staff that we could order things outside the buffet breakfast. The toast was cold each morning. Table service for drinks was a little slow and at times, we had to chase staff.

However, the staff were friendly, helpful and very accommodating so that is a plus.

The room itself was fine and spacious. However, I was very disappointed that there was no Nepresso machine - for this type of hotel I would have thought that a given.

I had one spa treatment which was absolutely lovely.

I know that it is early days for COVID19 arrangements to be assessed and hotels are working their way through things. I just left with a sense of disappointment and not the wow factor that I was anticipating.

Future guests, for upcoming stays please ensure to request your room is refreshed otherwise this will not happen due to covid processes internally.

We stayed over a weekend, very spacious room with baby cot provided (very good child cot). Bed and room facilities were excellent.
When I’m bathroom I noticed the shower gel was half empty which was not satisfactory. Spoke to reception and this was replaced immediately though in a 5* hotel you’d expect better and given covid they should be replaced as standard even if u used.

First meal in garden room, staff placed us on main thoroughfare of food from kitchen with high chair on this thoroughfare. Requested to be moved which was accommodated. Had ordered chips for baby to nibble on prior to us ordering and once at new table asked waitress if these were already ordered or not with response of ‘maybe, I don’t know’. Seat positioning and attitude simply in my opinion down to inexperienced staff.

Wife had cod which was superb with lovely garnish (potentially too much fennel)
I had jalfrezi which was flavoursome but no spice (though catering for the general population it generally needs to be like this).

Second night wife had battled fish and chips which was rated as very good. I ordered rib eye which had large amounts of gristle/tendon throughout and made the meal inedible (I am not a fussy eater and got to the point where chewing the gristle made me feel queasy). Thankfully manager (Joey) removed this from the bill and was very pleasant to deal with.

A special mention to Peter (concierge at check in who was thoroughly helpful and genuinely interested in our plans with advice on suitable local places of interest).
Barbara at breakfast was professional but very engaging with an extremely pleasant disposition.
Elsa & Krisztian in the bar were extremely good (Elsa only working there 3 months but was attentive and helpful), Krisztian was clearly an experienced waiter who constantly entertained our child and chatted to us throughout the evening (but not overly so).

All in all an enjoyable stay though the steak has left a poor memory. Staff were pleasant and courteous at all times but not to the standard of previous stays

We booked in at a advance payment deal for a Sunday night including food, breakfast and an upgraded room. The staff were wonderful, our package included the fine dining restaurant and they allowed us to have credit to eat in the garden rooms instead as we wished for a more casual experience. The staff in the garden rooms restaurant were so nice and the food was delicious, the wings were the best we’ve ever had. The kind gentlemen at reception was very helpful when we were checking in and out and covered our anniversary treat that we had arranged to our room which was really appreciated. We didn’t use the pool facilities but had a look in and were impressed with it. We hadn’t had a breakfast buffet in quite sometime but we were actually very impressed with it, the selection of food on offer and the quality was very good. Another thing to note was their covid measures which was to a high standard, our passes were checked and they provided sanitiser around the building. The staff really make this place special, thank you for a wonderful stay.

At a recent stay we were shocked to find used, unwashed mugs on the tray in our room along with cobwebs hanging from the ceiling. Room inspection prior to letting is a joke. Also very unhappy with the level of or more accurately lack of proper cleaning of all contact points re Covid precautions. Management of the property should hang their heads in shame.
