We have stayed at this hotel for four years now. It is clean, easy walking distance to the Temple Bar clubs is great and the restaurants around the property are more than adequate for food choices. The check in clerk gave us an early check-in room as an upgrade which you really appreciate after flying overnight to get to Dublin. I wish the rooms had small refrigerators. This would be the only thing I would like to see added to the hotel.

The staff we encountered at Reception were exceptional. I particularly enjoyed being greeted at the door each time we entered the hotel. Breakfast was excellent, lots of choice, well cooked, loved the scrambled egg. Shame there were no cooked tomatoes. Everything was really tasty though. Clean everywhere.
