Nice hotel, very friendly staff. Food was great. We had booked a family room for me, my partner and 2 kids but found the room a bit small. Rooms were clean but the only issue we had was that our sheets weren't changed, usually this wouldn't have bothered me as we only stayed 2 nights but due to heavy duvets my partner had been sweating the night before and had to get into a damp bed on the second night
Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2017

Very nice stay
We loved the hotel and the staff. Everything was very nice and we had a delicious dinner in the bar. The bed however was very uncomfortable and breakfast was just okay. Overall we still had a nice stay.

Looked good but didn't deliver at all
I must have had a bad room, leaky shower (dripped all night), dodgy curtain that wouldn't close and not a good mattress. Fair price although I was disappointed and wouldn't go back

GLENSIDE HOTEL-AN EXCELLENT FAMILY OWNED HOTEL
Met Christine at reception, very pleasant and very helpful. First time at this family hotel, very well run, excellent breakfast. About 2 miles on the south side of Drogheda, on the right hand side. Very good parking availability. Now that I have found this hotel, immaculately clean, in all areas, I was very impressed. It is a small hotel, I think about 16 rooms- most definitely will be back, and highly recommend it.

Excellent stopover in County Meath
We stopped at the Glenside after a day or touring the sites at Trim and Newgrange. We were very pleased. The staff was welcoming, the food was excellent and the housekeeping was fine. The parking was free and plentiful. The only negative was that the bed was quite a bit softer than we're used to. However, if was fine for a stopover. This is not a new building, so if you're looking for something akin to central Dublin (at 4 times the price), you won't be happy here. However, after a tiring day, it's a great place to stop, have a fine meal and a pint or two, and spend a restful night. The hotel itself is charming. The corridor has a series of historical black and white photographs taken by a very good local photographer. The dining room and reception area contained wonderful landscape photographs that are available for sale. In keeping with the photographic motif, the dining room is called Sepia, and contains antique photography equipment. The hotel is a short drive from the Dublin airport. You can spend your last day in Ireland touring the sites at Newgrange, spending the night at Glenside,and driving to the airport in the morning.

A nice, small hotel for a weary traveler
Final night of a coach and rental car tour before flight from Dublin. Booked because of location (out of town but reasonable driving distance to airport), price, full breakfast, and favorable reviews and photos. The staff was friendly and helpful, the room was clean and had very comfortable bedding, and the cooked to order breakfast was excellent. The room could use some upgrades: entry had a light weight door with a weak lock, a crack/small hole in bathroom sink, limited soundproofing (though everything very quiet by bedtime), and a lingering odor from cleaning (opened window awhile to help it dissipate). Overall, the hotel worked out very well for a single night.

Hidden gem
This hotel is a great find, a little off the beaten track though so you would really need a car. Hotel is bungalow style so all rooms are on ground floor. It looks recently refurbished so rooms are comfy, but bathrooms seem untouched and in need of some attention. Good night's sleep, huge tv with satellite channels and nice breakfast in the morning.

No Good
The room was modern enough but the bathroom left something to be desired. There was broken tiles that were hanging off the wall as well as a layer of dust on the radiator bracket that must of been there at least a year. The shower was tiny and the dirt of the grout on the tiles was disgusting. The dirt would literally come off in your hands from the shower tiles. We have stayed in cheaper hotels than this and they were far superior. The bed was so uncomfortable that I woke up 5 times during the night The general overall look in the room was that it was tired and needed a revamp. The bathroom was disgusting. One of the lights in the bedroom did also not work. On the plus side there was a big modern TV and the room was very warm. Would never go back to this Hotel. There is no excuse in this day and age to have a bathroom like this.

Trace the family to Drogheda
Lovely hotel, easy to find, lovely friendly helpful staff with great food at affordable prices. Bathroom (room 102) could do with a "demould experience" We stayed mid week, I would think it would be noisier at weekends, looks like lots of weddings book here.

Klein aber fein und relativ günstig
Schönes kleines Hotel ca. 5 km außerhalb der Stadt. Obwohl direkt an eines Hauptstraße gelegen, sind die Zimmer nach hinten raus sehr ruhig. Die Zimmer sind ausreichend groß und gut ausgestattet. Sehr großer Flachbild-Fernseher, leider eben ohne deutsche Programme. WLAN funktioniert gut. Das Frühstück ist lecker. Wegen der Lage ist eben ein Auto unbedingt nötig. Ich würde jederzeit wieder dorthin gehen.

Hôtel trop cher pour les prestations proposées !
Très déçu par cet hôtel qui n'offre qu'un confort précaire pour un prix assez élevé de 77 € la salle de bain est minuscules la literie et d'un confort très moyens et la surface de la chambre petite !

Kann man unter der Woche buchen
Das Hotelpersonal ist sehr nett und zuvorkommend, das Hotel selbst ist etwas abgewohnt, die Türenknallerei ist mir ziemlich auf die Nerven gegangen - das ist aber leider in einem Gasthaus, das auch für Familienfeiern genutzt wird, nicht völlig zu vermeiden. Ansonsten: ordentlich, wenn auch nicht überragend.
