Comfortable, convenient, excellent staff.

Lovely staff, very well apportioned and comfortable room. Nice bathroom facilities. Excellent location in a quiet but convenient neighborhood. Quick walk along the river to both Sandymount village and Ballsbridge. One of the nicer hotels I stay in and I look forward to when my work brings me to the hotel.

A decent stay. The staff at the restaurant were not very attentive—I had three different waiters who missed my starter at dinner, and I had to ask several times for coffee at breakfast. Unfortunately, my room was right by a set of stairs, so I could hear people coming and going all night. When I mentioned this to the front desk at checkout, the staff asked if I had told anyone. I said no, as it was okay since I was only staying two nights. I figured moving to a new room would be more of a hassle. She brushed it off. Later, when I asked them to hold my items while I went out, the entire staff was giggling about something. I have no idea whether it was because of me or something that happened before I arrived, but it was incredibly strange. There isn’t much around the hotel except the stadium. You need to walk about 10 minutes or take the train to get to most places. The hotel itself was fine, but I don’t think it’s worth the money due to its location and lack of service.

The flooring in the corridors were uneven, and had many steps to my room, steps to enter the room and inside the room steps to bathroom too. High risk of tripping and falling, a Health & Safety issue. There was no in-room fridge or bar for guests to place medications. The toilet was set so close to the side of the bath (4cm away) you hit the bath when trying to sit. The lift A to carpark broke down when trying to check out. Had to carry bags down a flight of stairs. The room had NO Ventilation system. Windows were locked. No air vents, no air condition. It was stifling hot trying to sleep at night. Had to sleep on top of the duvet. Hair dryer was hidden and permanently attached inside the drawer. There was no luggage rack. Had to use the glass tables for bags. The main good thing with the hotel is the availability of parking within the premises.
