We enjoyed our stay at this well-located hotel in Malahide. The room was very clean and comfortable (our only quibble was that the pillows were not as comfortable as the bed.) The breakfast buffet is very good. The staff were friendly and helpful. We'll stay here again the next time we're in Malahide.

Love the location and the setting of the hotel! It has a lovely bar where we enjoyed a light bite while watching the Ryder Cup. Breakfast was great as was the view of the water from the dining room. The room was comfortable, and spacious. Wish we had more time to spend there! It was also very convenient to the airport.

I was going to the Steelers game in Dublin and chose to stay outside the city for a bit of quiet in the evenings. Great choice! Easy trip in (from the train stop a few blocks away). I especially enjoyed the bars and restaurants in the hotel. It's a lovely place!

We stayed here for a week. The staff was friendly, the room was clean and the area was nice. We took taxi’s into Dublin for activities each day, during low traffic times the fee was reasonable but during high traffic times it can cost up to about $50 US. Taxi drivers always arrived early like 15-25 minutes but are always willing to wait.

Two of the staff on reception were not at all welcoming infact quite dismissive. My main complaint was the lack of GF ( none) in the bar area and yet they had GF beer ? We ate in the main restaurant and the food was very good with GF options and the head waitress in the restaurant was excellent both at dinner and breakfast
