Typically RIU hotels and this property are 5+ stars every time. This stay in particular I found that prices have increased significantly and the quality of food and drinks has dropped allot since my last stay. For $750 a night CAD this was a big disappointment

We all agree, The Hotel Riu Plaza The Gresham Dublin was excellent! It was our first visit to Ireland and the hotel is centrally located and convenient! Our “kids” are all in their early 20’s and their room was ideal for sleeping, relaxing and connecting when not exploring Dublin. If you plan an early morning bus tour, you can request a “to go” breakfast. Its not quite what you’d expect as the breakfast in the dining room each morning is superb! I highly recommend this hotel.
