Overall pleasant stay, cozy bed and exceptional hospitality. Conveniently located near the AirCoach bus for airport drop offs. Best to avoid being near elevators as the hallway chatter can bleed into the rooms. Had to dock a star because our room was two elevators stops away, a bit of an unexpected inconvenience

We were welcome to buy several staff members right at the front door. Clearly, Service is one of the strong points at the hotel. Breakfast choices were absolutely amazing. Service there was also excellent. Highly recommend RUI Hotel as an excellent location in Dublin for the central city activities. Too many choices and too little time for all of it. Glad we did one of the hop on off bus tours on arrival. Very large hotel with many rooms. We do recommend this hotel.

We have visited the hotel a few times and are normally happy with it. This time, we had some concerns: 1. One of the windows wouldn’t shut properly. 2. The fact that I am a Riu member wasn’t acknowledged 3. The loading of old sheets and rubbish near the lift area was a health and safety risk. It was difficult to avoid when moving cases. 4. The complex lift arrangements were difficult. On the other hand, staff were helpful and friendly.

Typically RIU hotels and this property are 5+ stars every time. This stay in particular I found that prices have increased significantly and the quality of food and drinks has dropped allot since my last stay. For $750 a night CAD this was a big disappointment
