    great wi-fi
    friendly staff

    This place suits me perfectly! It offers excellent wi-fi, a cozy bar lounge area, and 24-hour reception. I still remember how kindly the staff helped my old parents during our first stay.

    We liked it and would love to return. The hotel was clean. The staff was pleasant and the location was magnificent - altogether a very nice experience. A great selection of restaurants to eat close by, like Shengjing that was only 5 minutes' walk away. There was a great selection of restaurants and bars to choose from.

    Loved the decor of the reception area. Big comfy sofa's in quirky upholstery, lovely to relax in at any time.

    Room didn't look like the advertised rooms when we booked. Old hotel room, needs a renovation, so too does the bathroom.

    wonderful staff
    tasty breakfast

    great access to parks and local dining options

    the staff were wonderful and breakfast was lovely, making it easy to start my day before exploring the beautiful mountjoy square park, just under 2 km away, and enjoying a tasty meal at one of the nearby restaurants like il corvo, just a few steps from the hotel.

    My partner left his wallet in the bar at night and it was at reception in the morning. Impressed with the honesty and the friendliness of the staff.

    No complaints.

    Location to the city centre.

    No WiFi in the rooms, you have to sit in the main reception area if you want WiFi. Food is expensive for what you get, more quantity than quality. Keep your expectations low and you will be ok.

    The location was great. Very handy for the airport and Dublin city centre. The check-in staff were very helpful.

    Breakfast service was a bit of a let down, however the food was ok.

    This was the second time in a month staying here with a colleague as we were attending a course at the Marino centre just around the corner. The room was warmer this time. Excellent location for our course.

    The prices in the bar for food were very high - we decided to go elsewhere to et. The radiator in our room could also have done with a sand before being painted as the coats underneath the new coat were flaking off - this was the first thing we saw on entering the room.

    amazing breakfast
    clean room
    complimentary remote
    broken bathroom handle

    I had an amazing stay with a fantastic breakfast buffet, a great variety of hot and cold food, and a clean room with a complimentary fresh remote. I loved the homemade shortbread with the tea tray in my room. I would definitely choose this place again!
