10/10 Exceptional

We were looked after from the moment we arrived. There was always someone to help us find a taxi or recommend local dining. The room was incredibly comfortable. We overlooked the beautifully manicured gardens where a water feature gently lulled us into an afternoon nap on a couple of occasions. The Cellar Bar just an elevator ride away (but also accessibly from the road for friends meeting us) was a fantastic option for casual dining. The mussels served there were worth the trip to Dublin!...
