Hotel room was okay. Staff members were awesome. Great service at check in and in the restaurant. Food was great as well. Did not think the room had air conditioning and the property was really hot inside. Other than that, solid stay.

The main benefit of this property is that it’s close to the airport. They have signs saying a strict no outside food or drink which was disappointing. The rooms also do not have AC so just be prepared for that. It was nice being able to have a 3 bed room for my group.

We were able to check in early. Parking available on the street in front of the hotel. Room was okay but too warm. Window opened about 4" and we had a fan running all night. Close enough to walk about town. They seem to have a homeless problem around the hotel.

Fairly centrally located for short journey into city centre, staff very friendly and courteous, room was spacious and well presented with everything at hand for a comfortable stay. Particularly enjoyed the pool and spa complex including Pizza at the onsite restaurant McGettigans. Would definitely recommend and will be staying again on next business visit.

Arrived later at night and young lady at desk said no longer checking people in. Said you have to do it on line. So I stand there and book on line. She was extremely rude and then tells her co worker to check us in. Rude to her coworker as well. Last leg of our trip through Norway, Sweden, Denmark and then Ireland. Worst check in experience of all.

There was plenty of free onsite parking which is a huge plus! It’s a bit too far to walk anywhere but taxi/uber is pretty reasonable. Also it’s closer to the airport which was nice. There is a pool and hot tub on site. It wasn’t super hot but it was nice enough to relax after a long travel day. We arrived early so while we waited for our room we had a great time in the onsite bar chatting with the bartender Jed. We booked the wrong room but they were able to accommodate our request to switch and the room was great. Highly recommended!

I chose this hotel for proximity to the Dublin airport and the pool. It was convenient for the airport…though still a 20 euro ride away. The pool was ok but they make you buy an uncomfortable swim cap to use to pool. The staff at the pool were very unfriendly. The hotel staff at the desk were nice. Though my key card didn’t work at first so, after I very long flight I had to trudge back down to the main desk with my bags to ask for a card that worked. The carpet in the hallways is gross…very dirty. The room itself was nice enough though the refrigerator did not work. The bag/door man was very nice and helped me back to my room with my bag and made sure to key card worked. He was the best thing about the hotel. The food at the restaurant was decent but overpriced.

We stayed for 3 nights, toiletry items called to front desk were ignored. Instead we were told to remove our do not disturb sign for housekeeping entry. The rules were; no outside drinks or food allowed in the room. The mini fridge was broken and no ice allowed. You cannot adjust your temperature due to no gage in the room. There was a sign at the pub entrance, stating that you could be refused entry do to your dress attire. They did have a beautiful pool and large gym facilities with Fitness Trainers.

Pool facilities were spectacular. Rooms were clean however, we could feel springs in mattress and refrigerator was warm. I was told a warm fridge was normal and was usually only meant for medicine. No way to keep drinks cold. No microwave. They didn't allow you to bring in food to hotel so you are forced to eat high priced restaurants or off site. We found that very odd. This hotel was ok at best, its way out of city so it was a 30 minute bus ride or 20 bucks for a cab ride to city center. Breakfast was expensive and mediocre. If we ever returned to Dublin, I think we will try somewhere else.

I was placed in a room where the ac and hot water didn’t worked. I was moved the next morning to a room beside the first one, and the hot water worked there, but still no ac. I was unable to sleep it was so hot in the room and opening the window didn’t help at all. I also saw small hairs all over the comforter….
