Fair price. Great staff and the breakfast was good. Found the location a bit out from the main city for tourist who didn’t rent a car. If you did rent a car there was parking at the hotel. Just realize it isn’t cheap to part in downtown Dublin. Buses come by the hotel but you need to be aware of the times as there aren’t a lot of them that come by. Overall the stay was good and the price for the hotel was reasonable.

Fantastic hotel in a great location

The staff at this hotel are amazing, in particular Beatrice who is so friendly and helpful. The rooms are beautifully decorated with lovely bathrooms. Breakfast is fantastic. Excellent location handy for the airport via Dublin tunnel and the port (10mins away). Handy for city centre, if you need to take the car or great public transport links. Close to Sandymount Green and short walk to the The Strand.

The staff are amazing. Very welcoming, friendly, helpful and made my stay extra special. Oscar, behind the Line-out bar deserves a special mention……he is efficient, friendly and very knowledgeable about the local area….well done Sir. The breakfast was fresh and delicious. Just a suggestion……have some newspapers available….would be a nice touch. I would recommend this hotel to anyone…..I will definitely be back.
