Great location and relatively quiet for the location on a very busy street in temple bar. Convenient to many sights and to transport. Full restaurant which was great on our first day as we arrived prior to check in time but could leave our bags at the desk and sit down to eat before hitting the streets.

The staff was very friendly but the hotel was a little dated. Our room was nice on the second floor but only reachable by stairs. For the most part the room was clean but there were some sticky larger stain on the floor. This is definitely a hotel for the location.

The hotel is good. Don’t book the Celtic Nights at the hotel. The food is dry and reheated. The worst burger ever. Our table was 72 and we couldn’t see the dancers.

The staff was very friendly, but the rooms were rundown. Our bathroom had black mold in the shower and around the sink. Our room was on the back of the building so the noise from the alley was loud. Very rundown area. Wouldn’t recommend.

I will be contacting Expedia regarding the parking issue. It’s a 10 minute walk. If I had been alone it would have been impossible. We parked where told and ended up paying 43 euros to get our car out after 2 nights. There is nothing on their site about this. They did not tell us to have our parking validated and you had to insert your ticket to drive your car out. They refused to accept this charge as a refund because we no longer had the ticket. The desk staff was rude at check in because we wouldn’t leave our luggage at the front door unattended. Yes they had a luggage cart but didn’t offer it or tell us where it was. Really poor guest service.

Perfection at the front desk. Bathroom taps were a struggle in shower for us Canadians. Perfect place in the middle of Dublin. Buses everywhere. No smog. Safe and old world. Hit the Celtic Nights Show!
