In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Excellent central location — The hotel is right in the centre of Dublin, an 18-minute walk from St Patrick's Cathedral and close to St Stephen's Green. Guests repeatedly highlight the ease of exploring nearby restaurants and attractions on foot.
  • Stylish, clean rooms — Guests consistently describe the rooms as spotless, modern, and comfortable, with several noting brand-new furnishings and nice views.
  • Friendly, attentive staff — The team is repeatedly praised for being welcoming and helpful, from offering complimentary drinks at check-in to a bar manager making a whiskey sour after hours.
  • Good dining and breakfast — The on-site restaurant and bar are well regarded, with breakfast served until 11 am and a wide selection that satisfies different tastes.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Rooms and cleanliness scoring is the weakest category — With a rating of 7 out of 10, this area lags behind location and dining. Some guests reported non-functioning TVs in their rooms, despite overall positive impressions.
  • Price and service ratings are lower — Service scored 6 out of 10, and one guest experienced a disorganised check-in that involved three room changes and over an hour of waiting. Another felt the experience did not match the price.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not permit pets, so travellers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
