The highlights: the hotel and gym staff were wonderful and accommodating, the food at the restaurant was delicious, and the facilities were top notch. Our room was satisfactory, but nothing uniquely special compared to the usual hotel room. The only minor issue was that the water in the jacuzzi tub itself was pretty tepid. Would stay here again.

Weekend family getaway.

Overall the hotel is fantastic for families and I'm sure couples too. The people working there are lovely and the kids especially loved the pool area and the breakfast. Its very convenient for shopping centres in Dublin (liffey valley and blanchardstown centre) and Emerald Park(tayto park for most of us still)

Very welcoming, comfortable for families. Located right in the middle of town. Got the train to dublin for the day, station across the road, €12 return for 2 adults/1child. Bar & restaurant beautiful food and surroundings. Was hoping for some live music in the evenings but not offered. Only downside for us, and the heat inthe rooms, fan provided but still veru very warm. Overall good and will return.

Great hotel but expensive for what it offers

Great room (the coffee machine had 4 flavours, big and clean bathroom), the breakfast had a good selection but the breakfast area was rather small for the size of the property. Location was ideal for the train station. The swimming pool, jaccuzi were well maintained, but quite busy at times. The staff were great.
