Room was clean, fridge was warm and our room suffered a power cut. Staff were very good on first night, but on second night Saturday, very poor service from bar staff, i had to approach the bar twice to get a drink, when staff attended they never returned for another order. Kids promised popcorn and received nothing.

The hotel has been refurbished in a great way: the carpets are very clever tiles. The staff, with a Spanish preference are attentitive and polite. As a cheaper alternative to the Shelborne, this is an excellent choice: the hotel is large enough to relax in and central enough to hop on the aircoach 700 which stops outside the hotel. The food is excellent, if you want to have the traditional irish breakfast,sure, but the healther options are first rate. Tip: the hotel says 0700-0800 are relatively empty for breakfast, not so as the US tourists are enbussed by 0800 and need to be stoked up with food. so quieter breakfast 0800-0900. Much recommended for business, there are peaceful areas to work, and conference, and the broadband speed is excellent. Use this hotel to impress your customers!
