Very well located for central Dublin, we had two twin rooms both well spaced, clean and comfortable. Hotel staff were friendly and helpful. The bar next door was rowdy at night, as was a 21st birthday party on the ground floor but n our rooms we didn't here a thing so weren't disturbed. It's ideal for a short trip to Dublin.

Excellent location, comfortable and very clean room and bathroom. We had a twin room, windows to an inner garden with noisy bar, but when we closed the window the room was absolutely quiet. Unfortunately there is no bar in the room. Good that they provide free internet access. The airlink bus from/to the airport has a stop just in the front of the hotel. Easy and safe access to the city centre, even late in the evening/night.

Good value for money. There are cheaper places, but this one's location is right in the center of the city, the rooms are cozy and clean, and there's good service. Most hotels of this quality are much more expensive.

City centre hotel. Excellent location. The lobby and public areas seemed new and up-to-date. The room too had been refurbished to a good standard but was tiny. The bed was a decent size however and the en-suite was very clean and well provided. The problem was that the room looked out on to a shabby courtyard with bins. I closed the blind but opened it again at 12.30am,1.00am, 1.30am, 2.00am as the two pubs which had roofed smoker facilities in the same yard, partied loudly and intrusively until 2.00am. I was only staying one night but would noy have accepted that room for a second night at all.

This hotel was very clean, updated in a central location. I would stay there again with no hesitation. The one thing we noticed is the area gets just a bit seedy in the evening, but we did not feel as though it was a threat to our safty.
