Just outside the city centre

If you are looking for a hotel just outside of the city city centre the Dublin Skylon is a great choice. The rooms a generous in size, very clean, comfortable beds and still very close to the city.

Hotel was good but it was a really hot day (30 degrees) and my room had no AC only a fan. My friends room had AC. Good location though for getting in and out of the city. 10 minutes to main area’s.

We had a lovely stay there and everything was very good. I would like to point out something that happened the morning after we checked out. We were outside the gate standing and a couple were walking down the sidewalk. A car was coming out of the hotel and did not stop and almost hit the lady of the couple only that they shouted and she banged on the bonnet of the car as she was right in front of it. A sign needs to be put inside the exit gate to watch out for pedestrians before someone gets hurt. I told them I would mention it in my review. They were very shook up after the incident. Another car exited right after that and did the same thing so it must happen regularly. They seems to be looking to see if traffic is coming from the right of them and pull out half way to get a view and forget about people walking.

We had a not so great view of the back roof. The hotel had no AC and the weather was warm so we had the window open and then the kitchen exhaust fan started at 5am. We slept in and missed breakfast that ends at 1030 am. Other than that it was good for an overnight stay. In a nice area.

We stayed here at the beginning and the end of our trip to Ireland because of its proximity to the Dublin Airport. The rooms are very comfortable. The restaurant and lobby are very busy at all hours. They serve a wonderful breakfast which my teen boys loved, high tea in the afternoon, and lots of locals and tourists enjoying the bar. There are several great restaurants across the street and a Lidl grocery next door. We were very happy with our choice of lodging.
