Well situated.

This is a very well situated hotel,inthe middle of Sligo beside the river with a view of swans.But the hotel itself is designed tp be functional,not comfortable. Moderate buffet breakfast.Neither the fried or the scrambled eggs were up to scratch.We did have a pleasant bar food meal one evening.Overall verdict,OK but not great!

Actual Room View Based on Lottery?!

We reserved - and paid for - a river view balcony room. We got a large corner balcony room that had a 6 foot metal barrier around the balcony completely obstructing the view. Great room, nonexistent view. We requested to be moved to a proper room and were told the room we were given was a “river view” and room assignment is based on “lottery.” Really?!? River view rooms were sold out and ultimately we had to push for an adequate reduction in the price, which should have been offered quickly. It should be illegal to advertise a room as having a view that requires a ladder to see!! We would have stayed somewhere else if we had been told the truth.

Fantastic stay in Sligo

It was amazing! We loved our stay at The Glasshouse and wish we could have stayed longer. Room 515 was fantastic! Incredible views of the area, especially the river below. It was quiet, clean, comfortable and spacious! The staff was professional, friendly and helpful. The food was excellent. I highly recommend staying here.
