This is the perfect location to stay in Dublin. Close to many attractions and extremely walkable.

The hotel was fine but they really should work on their check in process. A lot of the other travelers were in the same position as us, in that our flights got us there super early in the morning. We arrived at the hotel about 7:30am and were the first travelers to arrive that morning. With no room available, we decided to explore the city with the express understanding that they would call us when our rooms were available. At no time did the hotel call us. At around 11:30am we stopped by the hotel to get additional information about the area and noticed several other travelers waiting in the lobby for their rooms like us, but again they said no rooms were available and they would call us. By 2:00pm, we made our way back to the hotel and decided to stay there until our rooms were available. At first they said no rooms were available, so we waited. As we waited, we saw other travelers who came after us get their rooms. At 3:00pm, we finally had it and went back to the front desk, where they asked us didn’t they (the hotel) called us. We showed them our phones to show they never called and no one told us any rooms were available when we stopped at the hotel at 11:30am or again at 2:00pm. Very frustrating when you’re jet lagged.

What an amazing Suite! It was as incredible!!

Very good hotel in the city center close to many attractions within a walking distance. Airport coach buses stop in front of the hotel which is convenient. We were early checkin which was really nice. The breakfast is very good.
