Sligo, although a small city, offers many food and entertainment options easily accessible from The Glasshouse Hotel. We even located a brand new and modern laundromat within in 5 minutes walking distance from the hotel. The staff members at this hotel were very polite and helpful. We would stay here again if we have the opportunity.
