The staff was great, and the breakfast was very good. The hotel was clean and in a historic building. It is located on a busy street, and the parking garage is a 5 minute walk away, so luggage handling is a little inconvenient.

Excellent location, we took the train from Dublin. The train station is less than 100 yards from the hotel. Very walkable location, we walked the sea wall/promenade to Salt Hill, Latin Quarter, Shop Street and Eyre Square. Staff was friendly and extremely helpful. Room was clean, bid. Two fans were in the room upon our arrival. Would absolutely stay again!!!

Only complaint would be the street noise in the evening ... the chirp-ing crosswalk at the corner well into the night difficult to sleep through. But the hotel itself; lovely. Staff; excellent...so helpful & accommodating.
