Great location near the RDS and Ballsbridge village. The hotel is beautiful and the grounds are really impressive. The rooms are fine, no A/C, bathrooms not luxurious by any means, but all comfortable and useable. You’re paying for the location, not the amenities, and the location can’t be beat if you need to be in that part of the city. I’ll definitely stay there again!
