Once again Gleesons Roscommon has been rewarded for excellence with a TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice Award. This is a significant tribute for the family run Roscommon business putting them in the top 10% of hotels worldwide. TripAdvisor is the biggest travel review website in the world with a staggering 200 million user reviews.
Gleesons also appeared in the recent Irish Times ‘Best 100 Restaurants to Eat Outdoors’. Their brand new outside dining area is completed and ready to go for when restrictions lift.
The Travellers’ Choice is the highest honour available from TripAdvisor and is based on millions of reviews and opinions from travellers from around the world. The annual award recognises the very best tourism establishments in terms of service, quality, customer satisfaction. It’s an exclusive group, which Gleesons are very proud to be part of.
“We are absolutely delighted with this award”, said Cáit Gleeson, General Manager, Gleesons Roscommon, “It’s exactly the boost we need just as everything is opening up again. It’s a recognition of our whole team and how hard they work to give every guest the best possible experience. This proves that our guests notice the difference and have told the world through TripAdvisor.”
Kanika Soni, Chief Commercial Officer at TripAdvisor recognises how difficult the Covid19 restrictions have been for the hospitality industry. He congratulated all the winners, saying, “I know the past year has been extremely challenging for tourism businesses. What has impressed me is how businesses adapted to these challenges, implementing new cleanliness measures, adding social distancing guidelines, and utilising technology to prioritise guest safety. The Travellers’ Choice Awards highlight the places that are consistently excellent.”
Gleesons was the first premises in the county to be awarded the Failte Ireland Covid19 safety charter. The Charter reassures customers that the business is ready to re-open and operate safely. Cáit, Eamonn, Mary and the whole team are really looking forward to welcoming their customers and friends back again. The entire building has been reorganised to meet and exceed Covid-19 requirements while retaining the unique character of the 1872 listed building. Gleesons will be reopening on Monday 7th June for outdoor dining and accommodation.
