Nice Hotel

This is a fine quality 4 star facility. The location is not great as taxi or bus required to visit downtown. Also a taxi ride from the airport and train stations.

Excellent service and accommodations! The night shift crew was extremely helpful and friendly. Loved the service and hospitality in the restaurant and bar. Only advice would be to upgrade the mattress's. They are too soft and a bit worn. Would definitely stay here again!

Great location and parking. Many busses right outside take you right into Dublin. Very convenient to the airport as well. Hotel is very luxurious and comfortable. Stayed twice on this trip, once the first night we arrived in Dublin and the last night before flying out. Will definitely recommend and will stay again.
