Our most recent visit (9/10/25) was our second and as enjoyable as our first. Sadly the tram was out of service due to a problem in the city, however a replacement bus was in service and was free👍. The room was very good and an excellent shower however there was an issue with the sliding shower head which was fixed by the time we returned to the hotel later that day. Taxis can be arranged by the hotel if required and usually arrive within 10 minutes. The staff on reception were really helpful and informative We would be more than happy to stay there again.

If I could give negative stars, I would. The Gibson Hotel in Dublin was by far the worst hotel I’ve stayed at during my trip to Ireland – and this is my 5th hotel here. Every other property I visited was warm, welcoming, and accommodating. The Gibson was the exact opposite. From the moment I arrived, the staff were cold, unhelpful, and unwelcoming. At check-in, I was handed a key with barely a word and simply pointed toward the lift. No offer to assist with luggage, no information about the hotel, no sense of hospitality whatsoever. Throughout my stay, whenever I passed through the lobby, staff either ignored me entirely or deliberately looked busy to avoid interacting. I even sat in the lobby for a while just observing, and it wasn’t just me – the staff treated all guests this way. Aloof, uninterested, and uncaring. Hospitality is supposed to be about warmth and service, but here it felt like guests were an inconvenience. This hotel was the least accommodating, least hospitable, and least welcoming of my entire trip, and it wasn’t even close. Ireland is known for its friendliness and warmth – but you will not find it here. Do yourself a favor and stay literally anywhere else. I strongly do not recommend the Gibson Hotel.
