Great time in Dublin

Great time at the Gresham on our honeymoon. The hotel was lovely, the staff very helpful, and walking distance to everything. Close to shopping food and drink. Temple Bar is a 10 minute walk and bus from the airport drops you right next to the hotel for 6 Euro. The pub next door had wonderful live music. The breakfast is a little pricey at 20 Euro. Overall a great stay. Would definitely stay again and suggest to friends.

Perfect Home-base for Exploring Dublin

We had a wonderful time in Dublin. The location of this hotel was a perfect jumping off point for exploration around the city. The standard double room was clean, with more than adequate space for two adults. And the staff was very friendly and helpful.

They moved us to another room with a better view upon our request but all rooms small and beds were quite uncomfortable. All in all a clean and safe hotel ! We took day tours and took public transportation - cheap !!

The key system doesn´t operating

The key system doesn´t operating correct you need more than 30 times inserting of the key card for successful opening the door. If you turn on the cold water tap you have to wait min. 3 minutes for cold water. If you want to rent a car the stuff don´t manage it but they recommend to you 30 minutes walk to the town at rential company with uncomfort opening hours.

Not Bad

I went on a two day trips and did some sight seeing around the city. The hotel was nice. But overpriced. This beds were hard for my taste and had a no top sheet only a comforter. Instant coffee. No AC in the rooms so it was hot at night. Showers and tub combo was small. The best part of the hotel in the nice people who work there and the location.
