About Knockree Hostel (Hostelling International)
Our newest 5 star hostel which was previously a converted farmhouse, is set at the bottom of Knockree, overlooking Glencree Mountains. The hostel reopened in April 2008 after a €4m investment. The Wicklow Way passes through the hostel grounds and so the ideal location for hillwalkers. Knockree hostel boasts all the usual characteristics of a top rated 5 star property including en-suite rooms, family rooms, meeting room, self catering kitchen, full car & coach parking and internet access. All rooms have a spectular view of the amazing scenery that surrounds this hostel. Especially amazing is our Double Deluxe Room - also dubbed our 'Honeymoon Suite' - see picture 3...
