Omar, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

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.
Andrew, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

excellent location, good local transport from airport
gary, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Nice place with some parking available but no a/c and our windows were sealed, a fan was provided. Good price. A convenient distance from the city centre.
stephen, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Friendly atmosphere and service. Excellent pizza at the restaurant and breakfast buffet included. Very convenient to the Dublin airport.
Sarah, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

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.
Robert, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

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.
Lee, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Very warm weather and air-conditioning not working in room. As soon as we reported it to reception they sent an engineer straight up but could not be fixed so they put a fan in our room.

Lee, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

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.
Margaret, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Lovely stay Lovely staff very comfy bed
Michele, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

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.
Dawn, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

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!
Christopher, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The staff were exceptionally friendly. We had a problem with the heating. They responded very quickly with portable heaters.
