Dublin Half Marathon Stay

A lovely 2 night stay as I was running the Dublin half marathon. The hotel was an ideal location close to the finish line. The facilities were great, a very high standard, and even though there was work taking place at the hotel, it was not disruptive at all. A late check out was also arranged to help with post run showering. I would 100% stay here on my next trip to Dublin.
