Average. Not worth the price.

Not worth price. It doesnt have a gym in the building. You need to go across the road to use gym which isnt the most covenient. Also the breakfast buffet isnt appropriate for vegetarians.

Lovely and convenient hotel

Beautiful hotel and great location. Much quieter than the tourist areas but still within walking distance of whatever you want to see. Lovely rooms, very comfy bed, friendly and helpful staff, and the breakfast is worth the price. Only down side is parking - it’s down the street and $18 euros per day. However, we made it work.

The Davenport is a lovely hotel in the center of Dublin City. Lots of great restaurants and parks close by for families and also very close to all tourist attractions. The only one point deducted is that the cleaning staff didn’t clean the rooms very often
