We have just returned from Dublin and I would thoroughly recommend this hotel to anyone wishing to stay there. Our room was very comfortable with a king size bed, bedding was changed daily as were all towels, toiletries were replenished daily and we were very impressed by the service provided. Our check in was faultless, in fact, the quickest check in we have experienced anywhere.

Included in the price was a full Irish breakfast together with plenty of choice in the way of cereals, fruit, yoghurts and various compotes and, of course, the full cooked breakfast. Coffee and toast were served by the waiters at our table and you could request refills which were swiftly delivered.

The conference facilities appeared to be to a high standard although this was not the purpose of our trip.

The staff were friendly and helpful, very professional and a credit to the hotel.

All in all, I would say that this hotel deserved its high rating and I would definitely return there again.

I would write a long winding review about just how brilliant this hotel is but honestly, the title sums it up in two words. By far the best hotel I've ever stayed in, the staff are ridiculously helpful, we arrived earlier than our checkin time and a lovely woman (her name has slipped my mind) sorted a room out for us within 30 minutes. Location isn't in the centre of Dublin but it more than makes up for it with large, amazing rooms, brilliant staff and generally an incredibly run hotel.

If you read this and you're coming to Ireland, I insist you stay here, you will not regret it, I promise you that.

Beautiful hotel , stayed there in sept 2009...very great location, good food, and staff very pleasant

Well what a w/end ! a fine (but narrow) win by Wales and a near perfect hotel. i don't see the point in repeating many excellent reviews of this hotel, but feel it would be wrong not to mention the hard working,courteous and friendly staff.
To get into the city center just walk to the right on leaving hotel, cross one road and you will come to Mountjoy Square from there you can catch very regular buses into O'connell street for 60 cents (no change given on bus). we caught the number 7 from O'connell street back to Mountjoy Square but gather many other bus numbers travel same route.Taxis cost around 7-10 euro's each way.
We did not sample the hotel food but some mentioned that the bar food and drinks were quite reasonable priced and similar to city center.
Finally being as tactful as i can possibly be could the hotel management supply a toilet brush, Dublin being the city of Guinness.(i am sure the maid would approve)
