Stayed here while walking the wicklow way and absolutely loved the place. Lovely building in a beautiful setting. We stayed in an en suite twin room which was basic but perfectly clean and nice. (Only minor complaint was that the mattress was very thin so not much back support but that's what you expect in a hostel) The shower wasn't... More

Lovely hostel nestled in a stunning valley - there is a canteen where food can be ordered (at very reasonable prices) and a kitchen where you can create your own inner Michelin starred dishes (however - bring the ingredients... the nearest shop is a very very very long walk away). There are lots of great walks in the immediate area... More

The trip to Knockree Hostel may take a while to get to, especially if you are on foot, but you are highly rewarded with the beauty, location and hospitality of this facility. We stayed in the Honeymoon Suite and we both agreed that it was the most amazing and best room we have ever stayed in. Incredible views of the... More

A little bit difficult to find, but worth it when you get there, new hostel, airy, spacious, clean. Fabulous views. Clean rooms, 2 kitchens-one for self catering, one for prepared meals, well provided kitchen. Did I mention the beautiful scenery. Reasonably priced. The 5 person room is great. More
