Excellent hotel in a fantastic location. Easy to get into town, and a stones through from the stadium, although can't imagine it'll be cheap on matchdays

Lovely hotel & great location. Hotel was close to the Dart station which allowed us to enjoy the city but be just a ride away. Rooms were clean and very quiet and the staff were nice and helpful.

Lovely well maintained hotel with the most Helpful polite staff on reception, In the bar & waiting staff, amazing room attendants. We had a Fantastic evening meal, I can honestly say one of the best vegetarian curries I've ever had. There's a well set out buffet breakfast with plenty of options, excellent comfortable beds, we was brought extra pillows within 30mins of request. Our room had a good quiet tower fan which we used at night. Our room had a shower over a bath.

Hotel was great with clean room. Service was also great. Only missing thing was air-condition as it was quite hot. But they provided fans. Fridge was also missing. But overall really good experience and I highly recommend that.

We were impress with clean rooms and helpful staff. The only suggestion i could make is the air con in the rooms as we were very lucky with the weather. The hotel had so many cosy sitting areas which is great for relaxing and we found the bar was very reasnable priced. The location is also good as only 2 stops to town by train.

Pros: The hotel looks nice and the staff was above and beyond. Hector and Lilian were so nice and polite. They help us more than we expected. They gave us a lot of tips for visit Dublin. Hotel location is great for go to the center. Cons: The seagulls wake me up at 5am..😵‍💫 and some parts of the building needs maintenance already ( hallway near to reception area ) TV didn't work properly ( I couldn't watch Youtube ) Breakfast don't have choice for not eating pork people. Just scrambled eggs or fruits.

Cannot recommend this Hotel enough. It’s in a superb location for the Aviva Stadium and easy access to central Dublin. Hotel and especially the bedroom was spotlessly clean. Very roomy double bedroom with a very comfortable bed Very friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast was one of the best we have had in any hotel and the bar had a great selection of drinks. We will stay there again and cannot not recommend to stay enough
