I was pleasantly surprised at how beautiful and clean this property was. It’s extremely convenient on the Northside district of Dublin, with nearly everything in walking distance. Plus, a bus literally comes right outside the hotel with travel directly to and from the airport. The staff were friendly and helpful, beds were comfortable, and noise was a minimum. My only complaint was that there was no outlet in the bathroom to plug in the hairdryer… we had to plug into a wall outlet in between the beds. Lol. It was odd, but it still worked! And that’s hardly anything worthy of removing a star when everything else about the stay was perfect. I would absolutely return to the same hotel for any future visits.

Everything about this hotel was wonderful. The staff was very polite & professional. The room was clean & adequate for our needs. We just stayed one night but would definitely stay here again. The free breakfast Buffett had a lot of great food options & everything was well prepared. Highly recommend this hotel.

Not a four star by a long shot

The hotel is more of a three star than four. The lobby is fine but the rooms are bare with laminate floors. It’s pretty much the farthest thing from luxurious as you can get. For the cost of what we paid during St Patrick’s weekend I was so wishing I had booked another more pleasant hotel. The hallways also have the plastic laminate flooring so they are very loud, you can hear every guest walking by and other room doors closing. It was pretty miserable and I will never stay there again.

Wonderful hotel in an excellent location! Walk to everything yet not right next to the bars. Room was clean and spacious. Delicious buffet breakfast included with lots of extras! Only drawback was loud people coming in at all hours of the night. Not the hotel’s fault but maybe a reminder to guests to be sensitive to their neighbors.

We booked this hotel 8 months ago only to arrive and be told there were no rooms available! We were then taken to a hotel around the corner which was no comparison to the quality. Absolutely disgusted with how they treat customers and will definitely not be using Expedia again.
