One Night Stay Before Flight to USA

The only complaint I have is the coutesy shuttle information on my arrival at Dublin Airport was not correct. I was told to wait at a specific stand and after waiting for almost an hour, I gave up and got a taxi. It cost me 10 Euros to get to the hotel but it was worth it instead of standing in the cold and rain! The shuttle leaving the hotel to the airport was on time and the driver was friendly and helpful.

Marvelous

We stayed at the Express on our last night in Ireland before flying out the next morning. The Express was very comfortable, the en suite was one of the best we've experienced, the coffee maker worked fine and the complimentary breakfast in the morning was excellent -- tops most anything we've had. The staff was courteous and helpful in view of our tiredness. And the shuttle bus for the airport in partnership with the next door Crowne Plaza was very efficient.

Great hotel!!

I highly recommend this hotel! It was clean, roomy, amenities were perfect, and great staff also! It is a close distance to the airport, and their complimentary shuttle ride to and from the airport was really helpful. It was really quiet, and I enjoyed the breakfast also. Just perfect for the price, and I would definitely go back!!

Great overnight airport hotel.

No hassle, no fuss. Front reception was able to get us a map and directions to downtown Dublin on a one day lay-over to Dublin. The WiFi was a bit slow in the room, but everything else worked out fine. Rooms were clean and modern feeling, with no major issues. :)

Shopping tip: Short drive from hotel

Lower Abby Street was great for shopping, just beware everything closes up around 7pm. Easy ride from the bus near the hotel, only 3.70 Euros for two people each way. Front desk can make change. (The bus takes exact change only!) Also, make sure you know in advance how to get back and where to catch the bus back. Buses did not call out stops ahead of time.

Convenient and clean

My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights on our way home from Europe. We wanted somewhere close to the airport but still easy to get into the city. There was a free shuttle to and from the airport which was great! The only trouble we had was finding where the shuttle picked us up. We got into the airport late at night so it was hard to find someone to ask for help. The hotel itself was clean and the staff was very friendly. The free breakfast buffet was very good with hot and cold dishes. There was a bus pickup just down the road from the hotel which went right into the city! The bus was much cheaper than taking the city transfer busses from the airport. The hotel even gave us a map with a printout to know what stop to tell the bus driver where to go. I would definitely stay here again if I was only in Dublin for a day or two.

Good Stay

the hotel was close to the airport, which is why we picked it. Originally we had 3 people when I booked the room, however we had 4 instead that went on the trip. Since it is an Express hotel, the rooms are smaller, so with 4 people we had to get another room. the staff was very nice & helpful. Very good breakfast.

At the airport, catch the shuttle at Zone 14. This is a five minute walk through the covered, glass enclosed walkway. The shuttle runs every 30 minutes; no need to phone the hotel.

close to airport

A very good value for the great location/shuttle to and from airport at no extra cost/ good variety of food for free breakfast. Overall very pleased with hotel. Front desk very helpful in exchanging currency at a decent rate and giving direction how to ride a city bus. Our stay was very short (2 nights) but enjoyable)

Sightseeing tip: Not Applicable

We rode the hop on hop off red bus in Dublin, Ireland. Plan a long day to see all the attractions. The traffic is so bad that you barely get anywhere on the bus. I would suggest riding the entire loop first to listen to all the explanantions of everything then either ride it again to your first get off point and do a bit of walking - you may get to the next attraction quicker because the bus only goes one way.
