We got the wrong room, single instead of a twin accommodation but they sort it out for the first night and then the next day they gave us a twin room for the rest of the stay. Great and very friendly staff. The administration does a great job in training them and been visible to all. The only draw back was that we did not get our room clean during our stay, the garbage was full, we only got towels changed.

This is a perfect location for walkers & nature lovers.
This is a perfect location for walkers & nature lovers. The views are spectacular & if you're lucky with the weather, which we were, though it was February, there are some lovely walks in the area, both short & long-distance. Very popular with tour groups & families, especially at weekends ... lots of buggies, bicycles & dogs ... something for everyone! Lovely outdoor seating areas for coffee & snacks & tasty food in restaurant. Don't forget your camera for some memorable & scenic shots during your walks. Wear comfortable footwear to really enjoy & take advantage of the lovely walks, especially around the lake , up towards the waterfall ... so much to see & enjoy ... for adults, kids, & doggies too! Will definitely return!

We have visited Laragh on three different trips to Ireland, and we are always eager to return. It is a scenically beautiful area. We love walking the trails at Glendalough amid the ancient monastic ruins, and the drive through the Wicklow Mountains is stunning. Over the years, we also have enjoyed several day trips to nearby Russborough House with its art, gardens, interesting history, and excellent restaurant. The Wicklow Heather restaurant is world class, and the cafe in the center of Laragh has excellent homemade soups and food.
Laragh is a great part of any trip to Ireland.

Laragh is just over a kilometre away from the honey pot of Glendalough which, when we were there at the weekend, was heaving with visitors. Laragh is a good place to stay because you're away from the crowds and I suspect that the dining options are better than in Glendalough. There are lots of walks into the hills from Glendalough and it is indeed a beautiful place. The long distance Wicklow Trail passes within a kilometre of Laragh. Good public transport connections either direct from Dublin by coach or by train from Wicklow and there is a bus service to connect with the trains at Wicklow.

It was fantastic trip, scenery was amazing. We stayed at Glendalough glamping and expectations exceeded itself. It was spotless and both Debbie and Pat were very helpful and friendly. Recommend the Wicklow heather for food.

We stayed in Heather House a short trip from Trooperstown Lodge. Accommodation was beautiful with a terrific view, super clean and modern. Lovely and warm for the winter time, towels and hairdryer provided and very comfy bed with fluffy pillows. Breakfast, lunch and dinner was had in the restaurant next door which is a quaint, old fashioned restaurant. Lovely antique decorations and delicious food. Staff in both accommodation and restaurant were very friendly and helpful.
relaxing, quiet and unique stay in an absolutely stunning location. it's so easy to do this as a 1-2 night trip from Dublin, and the location is perfect. I didn't have a car and there are easy hiking trails right near the property to get to glendalough and the trails around the lakes; it's also so easy to walk down the hill to the restaurants in the small town. so cute, clean, and a great alternative to a traditional hotel/b&b. host was super friendly and accommodating.
Mary is an excellent host, very pleasant. The room was nice and comfortable. The b&b is walking distance to glendalough and The Wicklow Heather restaurant. We got drenched during our walk and the small hairdryer was actually a life saver! Small things like that make a massive difference. It was a wonderful experience and I would gladly recommend it to anyone looking to explore glendalough area.
The room was super cozy, there was a TV with Netflix and YouTube, everything worked well in the bathroom, there were a lot of breakfast options and snacks always available in the room itself, it was a short drive to Glendalough and a short walk to an amazing restaurant, and having a separate entrance was a plus for us too. Host was very friendly, kind, and helpful, easy to reach by phone call.
The host we met, Erica, was just a joy, even in the wet weather she was beaming. I don't know if she was the owner but had that level of pride. Made sure we were okay. The grounds are landscaped, with lovely features. The "room" hard to describe as was so taking aback, good space, clean, privacy half partitions separating beds and living area.. Prefer this over a stuffy hotel room.
The location, hospitality and accommodations were all exceptional. From the Lodge you can walk to hiking trails and wonderful restaurants. The Old Monk’s Trail was a perfect way to start the day, the Green Road and the White Road were scenic and spectacular. Green Trail, easy; White Trial difficult (but worth it).
Simply thee best! The location, room, food, service . I would definitely recommend The Glendalough Hotel. Its just amazing and so are the staff. Excellent gluten free options available and staff are very knowledgeable and understanding of allergy which put my mind to rest and I felt 100% confident eating there.
Love this house, it is such a gem in a beautiful and historic part of Ireland. This was the original school house and subsequently operated as a restaurant. The owner maintains it with such character and style. The conservatory and TV room really are the icing on the cake. Great for a family re union.
Since I was hiking the WIcklow Way I liked that I could choose my breakfast time without bothering anyone. The room was lovely, very well decorated, spacious and comfortable. The location isn't bad - a fairly easy walk into the center of Laragh.
I was at the Tudor Lodge the second time and it was as great as the first time. The B&B is one of the loveliest places, would definitely go there everytime I visit Ireland!
Breakfast and lunchpack were also delicious and cute
Perfect location adjacent to national park, with monastery ruins visible from room. You could step out the door and be right there. Hiking/walking opportunities abundant. Liked the and the hotel ambience. Breakfast was good.
While there are no restaurant facilities at the lodge, the Heather House Restaurant is a very short walk. We had a wonderful dinner there the night we arrived. In addition, you get 10% off breakfast and it was outstanding!
Property is beautiful! Feels secluded but is very close to the village of Laragh. Facilities were outstanding and everything was pristine. Pods were very comfortable and we slept really well! Staff were very friendly.
The staff are always very welcoming and helpful. We love the pub which is attached to the hotel. Live music on Wednesday night. Food was beautiful in restaurant and for breakfast. Location is perfect for glendalough.
The best thing about this hotel is the staff. Everyone is very relaxed and friendly. Also very helpful. It is perfect location to hike the Wicklow area.
