“Average Hotel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 January 2012

person found this review helpful

We stayed here in 2011 in the spring. The food was overpriced, beds were average and the place was so overpriced. I remember paying €12 for two drinks in the bar which is sinful. It was cheap enough stay but I dont think I would stay again. There is much nicer places to stay in Ireland. The pool area is one of the most dead places I have ever been to also.

“Wouldn't stay anywhere else”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 January 2012

This is by far the best hotel in Dublin. The best value at 59Euro a night (69 for family room) A Carvery Breakfast that is to die for, friendly staff that will do their best to help. It is a few years since I used their spa but it was good at the time and I see no reason why that would have changed. While they don't have a great childrens menu it is right next to the shopping centre which has all you could ask for. No matter what part of Dublin I am going to visit I always stay in Liffey Valley and have done for three years now since I first found out about this little gem. And very family friendly too, always lots of families there but yet they have a floor designated to that so as to not interfere with guests looking for a little quiet getaway.

Room Tip: I would advise calling to book rather than booking on line, that way you can specify exactly what y...

“Awful Experience!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 January 2012

people found this review helpful

We just arrived home from spending 2 nights in this hotel. The hotel itself was ok, the restaurant was nice and the pool was ok. However when we arrived at 3 pm we parked our car 8 spaces away from the entrance to the hotel. 2 hours later when we went outside the car had been broken into, and items stolen and the Locks were damaged. The hotel wanted nothing to do with the situation, and would not help out with the security cameras, which are all around the car park. When the police arrived, they told us this happens on a regular basis in the hotel car park, and that the hotel are doing nothing about it. The area itself was not very safe, and the guard warned us not to be walking around alone. My advice, its not worth safe staying here!!

“Return Visit”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

I've stayed at this hotel a number of times on business. It really is excellent value for money - "proper" hotel quality at budget prices. Just try to avoid the basement rooms that have a view of a concrete wall.
My room this time was on the first floor so had a better view, albeit of the car park! The bedroom was spacious, comfortable and well equipped. The bathroom was strangely too big with an expanse of concrete tiles on the floor and numerous redundant stainless steel fittings around the washbasin - perhaps for non-existent toothbrush holder and soap dish?
Breakfast was included in my room rate so I wasn't going to miss out. There was the normal buffet breakfast fare. All the hot food was tasty and hot although I have to say that the tomato ketchup was probably among the worst I've tasted. The orange juice was also pretty disgusting. The "selection of artisan breads" mentioned on the menu was a basket of petit pain white rolls - very nice but not quite as promised.
Overall this hotel is still great value for money and I shall be returning.

Room Tip: Avoid the basement rooms with a view of the car park wall
