The hotel is in such a great location and a grand old hotel, making this a great spot for a stay. Staff are amazing, rooms are clean and well-furnished. Facilities are also what I look for, with a bar, restaurant and a well-known brunch spot. I would definitely stay again.

Overall a comfortable 2 night visit at the Clayton. This is undoubtedly a beautiful hotel in a great location.Rooms were spacious and clean. Booked room only, however we decided to pay for breakfast at the last minute on our first morning. The cost was 29 euros each, but if we had paid upon check in, it would have been 20 euros. We were not made aware of this during check in, which was disappointing. Also, when we checked out of the Clayton, we decided to go into the restaurant for a coffee and snack whilst we waited for the Airport transfer, but we were refused entry, as we hadn’t made a reservation. Again disappointing.
