Great location, steps away from great shopping and restaurants. The rooms were spacious and comfortable. Reasonably priced on site parking. The restaurant had really great food too. Really enjoyed our stay, wish it could’ve been longer!

The Leonardo was a great place to stay, so convenient to shops, pubs, sightseeing…the only negative was an evening meal in the restaurant/bar, the food was over seasoned and over cooked-worst meal we had in Ireland. We would stay at the Leonardo again but only have the breakfast.

The staff were very hospitable and made my stay enjoyable. They gave me a map and recommended me a list of the different places to visit depending on what i’d be interested in such as pubs with traditional Irish music and place open late night. My room was surprisingly on the ground floor which actually provided a nice view of the bridge and the river flowing by the Spanish arch. The room also had high ceilings, a security safe and was clean with all the toiletries needed. I recommend this hotel as it’s location is within walking distance to the train and bus depot, and you can literally step outside and be a 5 second walk from the popular Quay street with lovely buskers, great food and vibrant pubs. Thank you again to the staff at the Leonardo, you were all great and I had a wonderful time in your city.

Bed and linens were great and the shower was good. The staff were interacted with at the front desk and the bar were lovely. You cannot beat the location. On the downside, the little sofa in the room was stained and we had no wifi. I let the front desk know and they said they’d take care of it. There is a convenient adjoining public parking garage which we got a €12 discounted rate for but you will need to lug the suitcases down some stairs to get to the hotel lobby. Overall, with a few things that could be improved, we had a nice stay.

A great hotel and perfect location.

Great location for our family. We loved our room - large enough for 3 adults. The breakfast was tasty and plentiful. There was a bar in the hotel and we visited it and had a great cocktail.

Property and check in were great. The room was nice and clean, the only issue we had was that our room was ground level facing the road and it was quite loud at night. Luckily, we had ear plugs, so be sure to have some. Otherwise, great place to stay, especially the location.

Nice hotel in a convenient, beautiful location. Room was comfortable and clean, staff was helpful. The room with a view of the water was worth the price. No onsite laundry rooms just a service you can use to send out the laundry (expensive prices and they charge per clothing item).
Front of the hotel (in the background)  is within a block of The Spanish Arch.
