“Great prize”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

Was fortunate enough to win a facebook competition for a two night stay for two people with breakfast and one evening meal in a suite on the top floor, the prize also included a great tour of the nearby Jameson Distillery. The room was very spacious with a balcony overlooking Smithfield square. All the staff were friendly and welcoming. Food in the restaurant was very nice with great service. Good breakfast, unlike a previous reviewer really liked the sausages. The hotel is convenient to the Luas trams, like any capital city, some parts of the local area can be a bit rough so wouldn't recommend wandering too far off the beaten path, keep an eye out for women in pyjamas! A walk into town takes 10 to 15 minutes. The Jameson distillery is just across the square. The oldest pub in Dublin the Brazen Head is 5 minutes walk away. Enjoyed being a tourist in our own city.

Dear Loelk,

Thank you so much for taking the time to post such a wonderful and positive review on tripadvisor.

I am delighted you enjoyed your time with us and found the standard of the hotel to be so high.

The two areas we prioritise here at the Maldron Hotel Smithfield are cleanliness and customer service and the team and I are delighted you found the staff to be do welcoming. We aim to ensure that the highest standards are always kept.
Service is vitally important to us, and we try to ensure that the highest level of service is delivered to all guests. Your comments are very much appreciated and it gives the team a great boost to read how appreciated their efforts are.

I agree our proximity to the Luas is a great advantage to us. Although a city centre property we are very lucky to be located in such a peaceful area. Being a city centre property with the Luas on our doorstep it allows for easy access to local attractions, shopping areas, Court Services as well as Temple Bar, as well as to Heuston and Connolly Train Stations, the O2, CCD as well as many other attractions.

We look forward to welcoming you back to the hotel in the future and thank you once again for taking the time to post your wonderful review on our hotel.

Regards

Ann Marie Traynor

“Perfect for an inexpensive stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2012

This was our second time staying in the Maldron, Smithfield. Once again it was very reasonable and we enjoyed our stay. It is comfortable with good service and a very good price. Perfect if you are on a budget. Also quite close to the centre of the city, especially with the Luas.

Dear MayoEttie,

Thank you so much for posting such a wonderful and positive review on tripadvisor.

Service is vitally important to us here at the Maldron Hotel Smithfield, and the whole team was delighted that you found the staff to be so friendly, personable and noticed our efforts made to make you and all our guests stay a special one whether for work or leisure purpose.

I agree that our location is a special key factor and having the Luas on our doorstep is a great advantage to us. Although we are a city centre the area is very peaceful, while still being walking distance to many local attractions such as Jameson Distillery, Guinness Storehouse, Dublin zoo, shopping areas and Temple Bar. Also with the Luas on our doorstep it is extremely convenient for CCD, the O2 and Heuston station.

The entire team look forward to welcoming you back to the hotel in the near future and we thank you once again for taking the time to write such positive feedback on your stay.
Kind Regards,

“Lovely Friendly Hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 January 2012
2
people found this review helpful

The Maldron Hotel was lovely. The bedroom we stayed in was on the 5th floor with a lovely few of the city. Especially at night. The room was very clean and comfy. Had everything that you need..The gentleman at reception was lovely and very helpful. Breakfast was excellent and the waitresses were lovely. The hotel is about 10mins walk from temple bar, but is also 1min away from the luas. We had a lovely stay and would definitely stay again
the car parking was located around the back of the hotel, you had to walk back round to get into hotel. We also drove past the hotel twice, you wouldn’t expect to find a hotel where it was located, but all the same, it is a lovely hotel.

Room Tip: definitely request a room on the 5th or 6th floor..

“Very convenient & nice hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 January 2012

I stayed here recently for one night when going to a concert in the O2 and it was alot better than I had expected. We got a great rate for a Saturday night so we thought it would be a very basic hotel but our room was nice and had everything we needed. The Luas was only 1/2 mins away and was so handy for going into the city centre and out to the O2. We arrived early just after 12pm and were allowed to check in so we were delighted. We were on a room only basis so we didnt have breakfast but there was a shop right next door that served all kinds of hot food and you could sit in there also so that suited us perfectly. Will definitely stay again if going and would recommend it to anyone going up for a concert in the O2 as it was so handy.
