Great location, a little noisy but that is to be expected and it died down quickly - although we were not there over a weekend. The restaurant attached to the hotel was absolutely fantastic. Food was not cheap, but it was excellent and though expensive, VERY good value for the money. Will stay there again.

We loved everything about this hotel. We stayed here the 1st night and the last night of our trip. The bed was super comfortable and the shower was terrific. It was super quiet so you could not hear noice outside. The breakfast is delicious and well worth including it with your stay. The location is perfect for walking around Dublin for dinner and pub visits.
