The bar is excellent with a good wine selection, a good Dingle gin selection, and local beers. Good mixologists as well. The food is excellent!

The room that we are staying in has been remodeled very recently and is very currently decorated and large, especially for a European hotel. We are very pleased! I highly recommend this hotel and wood stay here again without hesitation.

The Seafood Chowder and Lamb Shoulder were over-the-top good, cooked to perfection, tender, and unique! The Sea-bass was tender and excellent! The Lamb Shepherd's Pie was not too grainy, even for someone who usually can't eat much lamb because of a mild allergy, and the lamb was very tender! The lamb was smothered with delicious mashed potatoes and vegetables, and the vegetables tasted garden-fresh and were cooked to perfection! The servers were so warm and kind!

The food, both breakfast in the dining room, and dinner in the tavern, were delicious, perfectly Irish, and served by the kindest staff.

We didn't stay at the hotel, but we did come to the pub restaurant, more than once for sure. From the moment of entering, you know this will be a special meal. It is literally like stepping back in time. Multiple open fireplaces, traditional music playing (on Sunday evenings), a busy bar and restaurant. All good signs considering we were touring Ireland during the "off season". I mentioned that fact to the front of house manager Marie as she helped clear a table, her retort was a confident and humurous "sure its always like this", and after our multiple experiences, I can see why. I basically had everything on the menu at least once. Some particular favorites were the bacon and cabbage, the chicken curry served with naan, fish and chips (pictured), and the starter wings. I begged to get the recipe, but apparently its a top secret and absolutely delicious. We had those every time we went. My wife adored the Darne of Cromane Salmon. All produce was locally sourced and proudly. Cromane is a nearby fishing peninsula, a lovely drive just five miles away as the crow flies. The salmon was so tender it was as if it was cooked sou vide. Tender, delicious and buttery good. Americans will appreciate the portion sizes, and everyone will enjoy the quality ingredients and expert cooking skills of the head chef. We will definitely be returning to the Olde Glenbeigh. A historical building which predates many surrounding buildings, set in an idealic coastal town on a heavily traveled route on the ring of Kerry. Don't be fooled, this place is a must stop on your journey, and if you have time, spoil yourself, have a couple pints, and stay the night. You won't be disappointed.

After a jaunt to town for dinner, on arriving back, the front desk lady was also short tempered. We are a group of 4 self-sufficient adults who have had wonderful hotels during our time here, and all have been so friendly, till now. But bad service continued to breakfast - even worse. We finally left d/t rudeness. We loved the walks to town and back - the hotel is about 1/2 mile walk to town. We have spent a lot of time in Ireland. Our memories are of all the friendly people, and the beauty of the country. My husband has been to ireland many times. This is a first. I can only assume the staff are overworked or the hotel is short staffed.

In the morning while making tea and the mugs were protected our visitor pushed the remote control off the table. Just a little fun at me. Just glad there was nothing in the mugs.

Reception staff was adequate, though not warm and fuzzy. Manageable 10 min. walk down the driveway hill and main street into Dingle. The hill may be long and steep for those with difficulty walking or who are in a wheelchair. Private parking for guests. We went in April and were rather put off by the overwhelming smell of the neighboring fishery. It is powerful and sure lets you know you're back at the hote driveway! However, the smell did not permeate the lobby or our room, so as long as you know that you can overlook the temporary breath-holding as you go by. Good location for the Dingle Loop Drive. We did not opt for any food at the hotel. Overall, it was a decent location, decent room, decent price, and a good bargain hotel.

I would go back in a heartbeat cause we really spent some nice 4 days there.
