Dublin Visit
Great location! It was easy to access many tourist sights. The staff of the hotel and the people of Dublin are very friendly and helpful! The front desk staff always offered great information on tours and dining. The bed was a little too firm.

wonderful luxury
This hotel was wonderful. The room was large, wonderful bedding, great bathroom with seperate huge bathtub and shower, fluffy robes, ALL the bells and whistles. Parking garage was great with big spots and easy to manuever around in.The location was good, within a couple of blocks to some good restaurants, also close to St. Patrick's cathedral. Breakfast was delicious - made to order omelets, warm fresh croissants, fresh fruit, everything you would want. This was a great change from some of the budget hotels we had stayed in all week - worth every penny!!!

Superb accomodations at an ideal locale
Our group flew into Dublin for the St. Patricks Day festivities. Although we arrived early, the hotel staff graciously took our bags, so we could begin our day. The staff at this hotel are top notch and delivered excellent service throughout our stay. My guests were very happy. The morning breakfast was very good and well prepared. Waite staff was there to immediately serve the customer. Outstanding service!! At night, we would wind down and enjoy a few cocktails and beer at the bar. The atmosphere was tranquil and enjoyable, except during the Irish/England rugby game.:) Everyone had a great time. Cleaning staff did an excellent job of preparing the room and keeping everything clean. This was my first trip to Dublin and this hotel and one of my best enjoyable ones. Looking forward to returning.

Excellent experience, gay friendly
We had a very good experience staying at the Radisson for 3 nights and would stay there again. Pros: Very comfortable rooms, excellent bathroom with separate glass shower and deep soaker tub. Rooms are very quiet. Hotel staff was friendly and didn't blink at giving a double bed to a gay couple. The hotel had hosted a large gay community benefit the week before. Cons: The location is slightly removed from the center of things. However, it's only about a 6-8 minute walk to both Grafton Street and the heart of Temple Bar. Also, the location meant it was much quieter. We stayed in the Brooks Hotel for one night and it was noisy--we could hear a band playing in a bar and heard people yelling at friends as they left bars until after midnight. The Radisson by contrast was very quiet.

Walkable to Most Sites and Attractions
Either a new hotel or recently refurbished. Bathroom floor was heated, truly a luxury (loved it!). Rooms were very clean and sleek. We ordered room service several times and were surprised by the quality and the price (not that expensive, relatively). The hotel room doors are quite loud when people close them - they self shut. This makes it difficult to sleep in, especially when the cleaning staff is going room to room starting from 9AM. The location is quiet, and a little removed from the hustle and bustle areas. But everything was within walking distance. 15 minutes was the furthest we had to walk to get to the Guinness brewery. Overall, very nice hotel, especially for the price. It's new, so extremely clean. Staff seemed like they were still being trained, but was decent. I would recommend this hotel.

Great location
This hotel is great! Great location, clean, modern and comfortable with large rooms, beautiful breakfast buffet and good service. Dublin is a very walkable city-and shopping, restaurants, and attractions (Dublin castle, Trinity College, etc.) and all within easy distance. The bar got noisy and busy during St Patrick's Day, but the rooms were still quiet.

Entertainment tip:
Short drive from hotel
Anyone visiting Dublin must go to the Irish House Party! It includes a very good 3-course meal, and traditional Irish entertainment (singing, dancing, stories) You sit family style in a lovely old hotel, and audience participation is encouraged. We met great people and had a terrific time. It's easy to find on-line and is highly recommended.

"A find!"
Terrific hotel in a great location. Nice, clean rooms with elegant decor. Would have liked a gift shop in the lobby for a few essentials, but plenty of retail nearby.
