Great spot
Great location, friendly staff, incredible shower. Shame you’ve to pay for parking if you don’t book directly with the hotel. Was never advised so that’s a bit unfortunate but other than that it was great

6/10 Good

Disappointing
We were disappointed in this 4 star hotel. the room was too hot & it was impossible to turn the radiator down or even off. The restaurant was poor, choices on the menu were few & very ordinary. and was the same every evening, forcing us to find somewhere else to eat On Sunday the hotel ran out of butter! We chose the hotel because it had a secure car park. We reserved a Blue badge space in advance and were assured one would be saved. When we arrived the car park was full to overflowing & there were no spaces available at all. We resorted to parking in an EV charging station, the only space available.It was very very narrow.

Our stay was very nice! The rooms were spacious and very clean. They even smelled good like minty potpourri! The beds were comfortable and the feed in the restaurant was good! We are from Texas where it stays hot 24/7 so we’re used to having an air conditioner on most of the year. We were a little warm at night but we opened the windows and ran the fan so that helped. Very nice hotel. We would definitely recommend it!

Great Quiet spot, super helpful staff!
Quiet location comfortable and convenient to park, and restaurants. Hotel workers were incredibly friendly and helpful especially behind the front desk, at the small grab and go cafe, and the restaurant. Would definitely stay here again!

4/10 Fair

One of my biggest regrets with my trip to Ireland was picking this hotel. Firstly the location is great if you have something to do in the vicinity but if you are there on a leisure holiday and want to explore Dublin, the hotel is 25 minutes walk away to the fringe of the city with limited food and entertainment options around. The chair and head board in my room was peeling. The front desk staff are friendly but not helpful or guest centric at all. They seem to be getting by on doing the bare minimum. I picked up my in room feedback card to provide feedback and guess what, it was already completed by a previous guest in another room! How did that get placed there? There was part of a chocolate wrapper on the floor as well so that made me really question the cleanliness of the room as well. I only stayed one night and I'm glad I did, one of my worst hotel experiences.
