Very good stay. The young lady at the front desk was particularly excellent at both her job and her personability. Room TV system could be better. Difficult to navigate and occasional drop outs. Housekeeping was very good. Will return.

Positives: Very good hotel with a very good breakfast, room was clean and beds very comfortable. Negatives: our room backed onto the life shaft so we could hear the whirling sound every time someone used the lift, also no hot water the shower.

The breakfast buffet was delicious and offered a variety of options. The hotel was clean with lovely Christmas decorations. It was in close walking distance of all the shops, pubs and dining options in the latin quarter. They have their own parking garage and will validate your ticket at the front desk so it does not cost extra for parking. The elevators are quick! Overall, it was the nicest hotel we stayed in during our Ireland road trip.
