The fire alarm went off at 2:00 am. The breakfast was ok with a cold spread and full Irish. The rooms were nice but no air conditioning. It appears to be a higher end clientele with a good location in the town. It’s a larger hotel and took two elevators to get to suite.

We had a fabulous stay at The Grand. The hotel was clean and well maintained despite its size. Our double room was on the small side but comfortable, with a beautiful view of the water and contained everything we needed for our stay. Staff were pleasant, very helpful, and check in was a breeze. The location of the hotel was perfect, opposite the water, few minute walk to the marina, village, train station and castle. There were plenty of places to eat and drink in the village, but we also enjoyed the food at the hotel and had a few drinks from the bar while sitting outdoors taking in the stunning views.

great work trip, we stayed two nights. The pool and saunas were crowded though, and the dressing rooms to the pool a bit dirty. But the rooms and hotel area in general was flawless, and the location with great views was a great experience. Very helpful staff!

We were delighted to be back again in the Grand Hotel - the renovations have made such a massive difference to the quality of a stay there. From the beautiful bedrooms to the gorgeous lobby (which really is Grand now!) to the delicious food, everything is 5 stars! Whether it is to celebrate a Big Birthday (we brought our family there for my 70th) or a cosy 24 hour break for ourselves, the Grand is a winner!

I literally happened upon this property in a beautiful coastal suburb, Malahide, right outside of Dublin. I had never heard of Malahide, but a lovely Irish woman suggested I stay at the Grand Hotel for my last night in Dublin. It was a fantastic tip. The hotel gave me the peacefulness and calm I needed before my flight home to Los Angeles. The village it is in is just beautiful with tons of restaurants and the famous Gibney's bar. I'd come back again anytime. Also, my hotel room was recently renovated and it made a world of difference.
