At Glenroyal Hotel, we’re excited to unveil our latest green initiative – The Glenroyal Bug Hotel! This isn't just any hotel; it's a five-star resort for our six-legged friends, providing a cosy and eco-friendly habitat.

Why Bug Hotels Are a Big Deal

Bug hotels are a wonderful way to support local biodiversity. They offer shelter and breeding grounds for beneficial insects like bees, ladybugs, and butterflies. These tiny creatures play a significant role in pollination, pest control, and overall ecosystem health. By providing them with a safe haven, we're not just being good hosts; we're helping to maintain the natural balance.

Glenroyal's Commitment to Sustainability

Our dedication to the environment doesn’t stop with our bug hotel. At Glenroyal Hotel, sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. Here are a few ways we're making a difference:

• KeepCup Policy: Since implementing our KeepCup policy, we’ve saved over 10,000 single-use coffee cups from going to landfill in 2024 alone. It’s a small change with a big impact!
• Herb Garden: Our on-site herb garden ensures that we use the freshest, locally-grown ingredients in our kitchens, reducing our carbon footprint and enhancing our guests' dining experience.
• Glenroyal Bug Hotel: This new addition not only supports local wildlife but also serves as an educational tool for our guests, promoting awareness about the importance of biodiversity and sustainability.

The Glenroyal Hotel is delighted to have been awarded the Green Oak Leaf from Into Kildare. The Into Kildare Green Oak Leaf is an initiative which aims to promote sustainable practices that are in place in tourism and hospitality businesses in Kildare.
