Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel offers comfortable rooms with excellent facilities and breakfast, though the in-shower over bath setup may not suit everyone. The service is friendly and efficient, with an array of amenities available. The location is convenient, especially for travelers using the nearby airport and motorway junction.
The hotel is located conveniently near local nightlife but suffers from extremely loud music. The rooms have comfortable beds but are limited with amenities like milk and breakfast. The service is friendly and efficient, offering room service and housekeeping. The newly refurbished restaurant is a positive addition, yet being next to a motorway junction could be noisy. The dining options are not included but offer American-inspired dishes. Overall, a satisfactory stay with minor inconveniences.
I was thrilled to stay in a hotel so close to Dublin airport and conveniently located to everything I needed. The room was comfortable, but the loud music in the shower was a bit overwhelming. The staff provided excellent service throughout my stay, making it enjoyable overall.
The hotel offered a mix of positives like convenient shuttle service collection from the airport and being central to various events, however, the single bed was uncomfortable and the loud music was disruptive.
