This hotel was in a central location - within walking distance to Trinity college and Grafton street as well as many restaurants and shops. We were there over a weekend and the Friday and Saturday nights were very busy - outside hotel and in area. Different vibe on weekdays. The hotel was clean and staff were excellent. The rooms were great - very clean and with a North American sized King. Buffet breakfast was great as well as the coffee/cafe in lobby (although limited hours and small bites available). We enjoyed our stay but may consider a quieter neighbourhood next time.

Fantastic staff, especially Gary and Noel who went over and above to make our stay the most memorable. 5/5 all around from room to property to amenities. Room 605 had everything we needed or would want including slippers, bathrobes, hair dryer, daily refilled water beverages all in a lovely bright room. Absolutely phenomenal
