We loved our stay here! Sabijn was fantastic- she upgraded our room to the coach house which was beautiful and spacious! Super comfortable bed and nice linens. The venue is very modern, charming and clean. Coffee maker and cold creamer and bottles of water in the fridge. Our room had beautiful floor to ceiling windows and a cute little patio to enjoy a glass of wine and morning coffee with periodic visits from an adorable neighborhood cat. Nice little sitting area inside as well. The location couldn’t be better- easy parking and short walk to restaurants and water front. We had a great breakfast at the Cozy Cafe just up the street. Highly recommend and hope to be back again someday!

Right in the heart of Kinsale easy walking to everything but still lovely and quiet. The room we chose was spacious -quality amenities, comfy bed, fabulous shower. I’d book here if returning to Kinsale.

beautiful little town with so many shops, very colourful buildings. The Glen Quarter was an outstanding place, very clean and comfortable. High end accommodations was with it. Free parking in back of building and everything is so close to get to. Park your car and walk everywhere. The Manager super nice and so easy to talk to, she had everything ready to go for us. Highly recommend this place.

Loved the room. Its confusing when you walk in. Looks like a normal apartment style place. Their office was upstairs, which we never saw. They had shared parking in rear for free. TV was a bit small and far away inside. The key and lock for the door needed to be up graded. Very loose and didn't work that great to just slide your key in. But it did lock strong.

Very modern and lovely room. The Innkeeper, Sibane, was terrific, Very helpful with all of our requests. Thankfully there was parking in the rear of the hotel. Somehow my credit card had fallen on the ground and some Good Samaritan put it under the back window wiper on the back window, where it remained for two days until we checked out!! We were astonished at the honesty of the person who found it and those who walked by it!

Sabine was an amazing host! We were greeted immediately, given an upgrade, and orientated nicely to room and entire area. She continued to assist us throughout our stay. Whenever we needed her, she seemed to appear. It was awesome.

A surprising bit of luxury in a small guest house. We stayed at the Glen Quarter for one night at the start of a coastal tour, but now I kind of wish we'd booked two nights instead. Our stay fell on a Tuesday night in the off season, so I feel like we barely sampled the charms of Kinsale and now I want to come back for a longer stand (this happens A LOT in Ireland... Charming smaller towns feel so welcoming and familiar, but are eclipsed by the glamorous bigger cities). But back to the Glen Quarter... Where we found a patient host awaiting our arrival to get us settled in modest-sized but wonderfully appointed room on the first floor. Everything you touch, from the furnishings to the soft mattress to the thick oversized towels, has a luxurious feel, and the new, modern bathroom is gold-standard in design. It's a lovely room and we had a great night of sleep. I'm just sorry we're moving on today.

This room was simply amazing. Modern, yet welcoming. We had our own private courtyard with lovely views. Communication with them was spot on and the check-in was a breeze. When we get back to Kinsale, this will again be our place to stay!
