Had received lots of emails in the runup to our stay. Booked this hotel as there was parking . But the emails said parking was limited. On arrival all 6 spaces at the front were taken so we did as advised on the emails and payed parking on the road- very expensive. When we got to our room & looked out the window we could see another car park with spaces belonging to the hotel. We moved our car to there to save us having to top up the on street parking but had already forked out €12 unnecessarily. In the email communications we really should have been told about this car park! Also, we had booked two room. One was for my son & his friend. At check-in although both rooms allocated had long size beds. We were told that tim he second room for my son & his friend the beds would be separated later that evening for them. Unfortunately when we arrived back after 1am this had not been done and at that time of night we wanted to get to bed and were not going to wait for this to be done! Apart from that the hotel was great and the breakfast was lovely.

Lovely stay in Dublin. Staff are very helpful. Lots of restaurants within walking distance and loved walking along the canal. Short distance to city center. We walked everywhere! Will be in Dublin a lot over the next few years and plan on staying here again.

The Mespil Hotel had the best breakfast of our 2-week trip to Ireland! Nice to start off with a hearty breakfast before touring all around. Great hotel and very helpful staff. Near the Grand Canal which we enjoyed walking, as well as other nearby neighborhoods and restaurants. A little bit further from key downtown attractions but easy to get there on foot, by bus, or quick taxi rides. LOVED this hotel!!!

Good hotel out wide

Nice clean hotel . You have to go to the front desk to have them adjust the room temperature . Rooms were good , There are places to eat in the general area . The only problem was I think it was too far from everything . Depending on how fit you are , it's at least a 20 min walk to get to anything.
