Very Good
The Palmer restaurant, lobby bar, pianist, French Room drinks, and breakfast were all sensational. One of the best Negronis I have had, and the service from Christian in the lobby bar/French Room was outstanding. The pianist added a wonderful touch to the experience as well.
Room was not ready when we arrived, and the Pullman restaurant had no record of our reservation, even after I showed their team the email correspondence with Joseph Rogers, the director of food and beverage. Bathroom door in our guest room was oddly heavy and would not stay open, which was both strange and frustrating during our stay. On top of that, after our visit we discovered an incorrect minibar charge for a bottle of Jameson, which we only noticed later when reviewing our budget back in the US. Neither my wife nor I drink whiskey, so this charge was particularly frustrating and disappointing for a hotel that presents itself as a true five-star property.

Disappointing

there is no evening dining room in operation at the hotel the only option to eat on site is the "bar" room that smells very fishy the lovely dining room is used only for breakfast and tea the Pullman (orient express) restaurant is not open on Monday or Tuesday and caters to bus tours

The property was gorgeous. Close enough to the city for a quick trip in to Galway, but far enough away that it felt like a retreat. The views were lovely and it was peaceful. We also loved the bar. The bartenders were excellent and the staff was friendly, knowledgeable and went above and beyond. The pianist in the lounge was incredibly talented as well.

The staff were amazing, warm, friendly and knowledgeable of the local area. Our room was so comfortable. The ambience of the place was above expectations. And the Pullman restaurant was a unique and excusite experience. The seven course taster was a gastronomic delight. Each dish was delicious and adventurous. Dining on the Orient Express on the grounds of Glenlo Abbey, what an experience, what a memory.
Our stay was 99.9% amazing. Just a small and I mean a small issue, we had to ask twice for cereal bowls at breakfast and since Glenlo is in Galway (the hub of all things Irish) hows about some Irish butter at the breakfast table. Other than that, the breakfast was delicious and the staff were so friendly.
