Cannot recommend this Hotel enough. It’s in a superb location for the Aviva Stadium and easy access to central Dublin. Hotel and especially the bedroom was spotlessly clean. Very roomy double bedroom with a very comfortable bed Very friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast was one of the best we have had in any hotel and the bar had a great selection of drinks. We will stay there again and cannot not recommend to stay enough

Clean room, good restaurant, free parking. The hotel was under construction when we stayed and our room 232 was directly in front of it. Very noisy on Friday morning especially since we realized our room windows were slightly open at the top. Convenient location to airport.

The location is a 5 min walk from Aviva stadium and the dart train into downtown Dublin! When there isn’t a rugby match at the stadium the Neigborhood is very quiet and walkable to local coffee shops in sandymount! Rooms are pretty small but well done and comfortable!

Lovely property with beautiful surroundings and a great neighbourhood. The hotel itself is charming, although it can feel a bit like a maze when trying to find your room. I stayed in Room 323, which was very comfortable. The room did not have air conditioning, but when I requested a fan, the receptionist provided one immediately, which was much appreciated. The room amenities were good, and I particularly enjoyed the daily selection of biscuits, which changed each day and added a nice touch. One point to note is that a colleague's room was located next to the linen room, and unfortunately they had a disturbed night's sleep due to housekeeping activity starting around 6:30am. I stayed for two nights on a business trip in early June and overall had a pleasant experience. The setting and local area were definitely highlights of the stay
