This was a wonderful place to stay with a beautiful room and fantastic shower. Very helpful owner. The only thing that one should know is that it doesn’t have a front desk; so you need to call the owner’s phone number on arrival. We called the telephone number, and we were met at the front door in about one minute.

My Kind of Place!

It is located in downtown Kinsale, so everything is within walking distance. The bed was very comfortable, lots of pillows. A small thing, but important - the body wash etc bottles in the shower are in large print for those of us with glasses. The room had a nice fragrance and was very clean and organized. It is convenient to Old Head Golf Course - my reason for staying.
Richard, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Right in the middle of Kinsale but without the noise and crowds you would expect. The managers were helpful and proactive a lot time of check in. Fantastic coffee with an easy Nespresso machine plus refrigerator, spa-like towels, lots of outlets and a fan. Never met the owner/manager but spoke several times over the phone and felt we’ll taken care of

Very unique and charming room. Very quiet. Not a traditional hotel with staff so you have to figure things out yourself ( ie how the coffee maker works) but very good value.

Amazing location and a super comfy bed. Parking was a huge headache.
Cami, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Near the heart of Kinsale. It’s a little hard to find if you’re not looking closely, but it’s incredibly nice and well-kept.
Chris, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The Glen Quarter Kinsale is a very modern studio accommodation in the old part of Kinsale, very close to everything. The staff were great to talk to and told of great places to visit around the town.

Excellent hotel in heart of Kinsale

Beautiful room in the heart of Kinsale. Within walking distance of everything. The rooms appear to have been recently renovated/updated. All furnishings and fixtures are in excellent condition. The room was very clean. The bathroom was wonderful with an extra large shower. I wish all hotels were like this one. I can’t say enough good things about this hotel.
Denise, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very nice Boutique Hotel. Well appointed with plentiful amenities, good sized rooms and comfortable beds. Upscale bed linens and thick towels. Staff was very welcoming and helpful with recommendations for local dining, parking and even helped get our luggage up the stairs to the second floor. I would definitely stay there again.
Margaret, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This was perfect for our one night stay. The only negative I have to say is I wish we had a place to put our bags when open, but that’s no big deal. The staff was kind. Easy check in and out. Perfect area to walk to the shops. We had a great time.
Shea, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Location excellent - very central. Only downside to this is it is a little noisy if you have a room at the front but it wouldn’t put me off staying here. Staff friendly. Well equipped room - Iron, ironing board, hair dryer, tea/coffee facilities, fridge, safe, fan, heater. Very comfy bed, good bathroom facilities and internet connection was fine. My only real criticism was that the room was extremely hot (stayed in July). A fan is provided but it was still hot. I should think that this is only a problem for a very short period of the year bearing in mind the usual Irish weather! I would stay here again.
Amanda, 4-night trip

Loved it

We had a great one night stay at the glen quarter. The room is small but very well designed and sparkling clean. Centrally located in the heart of kinsale. Since we came off season we parked right behind the building. Two doors down from a perfect breakfast spot with delicious cappuccino. Highly recommend for a short stay. Keep in mind that parking could be a challenge during the peak season.

Maje Sure to get the Right Room!

Was given a lesser room. Questioned at check in but did not get King room we paid for. Full bed was too small.
Christopher, 1-night trip

Wow and Epic doesn’t explain how awesome!

The Glen Quarter is EPIC! It’s centrally located, super easy and comfortable to walk everywhere. The room was spacious, super clean and well cared for. The staff was great at communicating and assisting us with a later than intended check in (the adventures of Ireland). I’d highly recommend this as a true destination spot and epic destination.

Parking was limited. Had to haul luggage from off site parking. Noisy at night as our unit was ground level on street front.
Wade, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Room was too small- no room for luggage. Bathroom didn’t have a plug. Unable to adjust temp in room. Toilet paper rack fell off wall. Fitted sheet was old and rough to sleep on. Location was good. The room looked nice and modern but not comfortable for 2 people for 2 nights.

Great overnigh stay

It was amazing. The amenities were very nice. Parking could have been more straight forward as we had to park at the "no overnight parking" lot which turned out to be fine to overnighr park
Robert, 1-night trip

downtown stay

Had several issues with the door lock, TV not working properly. Didn't like sleeping right above a very busy street. However bed was comfortable, convenient location and excellent shower
Steve, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room was quite small, there wasn’t much room to move around with two of you in there, and check-in was difficult, we got there at 3 as specified and it wasn’t clear how to get in to check in, we had to fall three times before we got through. Other than that, the room is perfectly located and the beds extremely comfy. We also appreciated the addition of a fan as the room got quite warm.
