It's just off a very busy intersection a few miles from Dublin centre. We got a deal on the eat what you want breakfast at €11 a head for typical hotel brekky - cheap meats: sausages, bacon, eggs (fried, poached, boiled or scrambled), black and white pudding, mushrooms, tomatoes, hash brown potatoes, cereals, yoghurts, fruit juices, croissants, butter, toast, fruit, limitless tea and coffee from machines that give sort of alright cappuccino, latte and so on. I wouldn't pay more it was at its money at €11. I'm sure I've left food choices out but you get the picture - quantity over quality. Sadly this part of Ireland doesn't offer soda bread nor potato bread so it's not as hospitable and discerning as Northern folk in the six counties. This place is more akin to an English breakfast. Maybe someday they'll catch on but don't hold any breath on them becoming sophisticated. On the return, on the Friday, it was a roast beef dinner with all the trimmings and a delectable mushroom sauce. It was about €17 each. My wife had chicken as her main choice with the same trimmings, cabbage, carrot, parsnip, mash and boiled potatoes. Place is cosy. Staff are Uber welcoming, clean restrooms and pay parking but if you buy food it's stamped so you aren't charged.

Overall, this hotel is clean and has decent service. Pretty fair pricing for rooms, but they…read moreupcharge every chance they can: early check in (before 2), late check out, breakfast, extra towels, etc. Considering that the hotel is located about 35 minutes out of the city (on a good day), it is not convenient for those hoping to spend their holiday in City Centre. The restaurant is self-serve, and not everything is included in the pre-pay food vouchers you purchase. I found the food to be dry and clearly prepared the night before. Definitely leave time to find food elsewhere. For late night options, Apache Pizza is across the street and isn't too bad. They will deliver to the hotel quickly. It took us about 40 minutes to get to Dublin airport in a taxi (about 42 euro), which wasn't terrible. There is a Hopper Bus option across the street for 9 euro, but it only runs every half hour. Room was clean, beds were comfortable, view was of the highway. I would definitely consider a Maldron hotel closer to the city (there are several), but was indifferent about this location.

This hotel is nice to outside looking in but a few things stood out making it not worth returning…read more Older hotel inside which is normally not an issue, but they have the oldest, flat, "doubles" that is two twins pushed together. Sleep is physically impossible, the windows would leak in so much cold hair it's hard to shower and make yourself comfortable. Otherwise it's decent if you plan to not spend much time in your room

In work I organise all of our events and use the Louis Fitzgerald a lot. It's a good location when…read morethe attendees at your event are coming from both Dublin and down the country because it has the Luas outside for the Dublin people and it's not right in the city so the country people do not have to battle with traffic to get to the location. The rooms in here are perfect, lots of natural day light and lots of fresh water with cordials and mints. The people who look attend to you are also really great, they don't seem to mind too much when you are calling them every hour to either turn up or down the temperature in the room, participants at events are always very sensitive to temperature I find! All the rooms I have used have had a projector and a screen mounted in the ceiling which is really great when you are doing presentations. You can have the room laid out any way you want and in some cases when you have a large group you can book two adjoining rooms which can be opened out into two rooms although you will need to book early to avail of this, it's a popular location for conferencing. One thing to be aware of though, when you are only using half of this room and there is a different group in the adjoining room you can always here laughter and clapping from the other conference which can be very annoying, similarly some of the rooms are around what must be a kitchen and at some point during the day you will hear a mixer going for awhile (I think it's for soup!) and that can be really distracting also. The lunches in here are tasty! (Even if they are noisy to make!) And they are good value too with a cost of only €14 for a hot dinner and a desert and there is always a choice too so the vegetarians are never left out and the chicken only eaters are happy and those who like to branch out and have a bit of fish are delighted with their options, everybody is happy! Make sure you leave room for the desert though, the baileys cheese cake is delicious!

We stayed at the Hotel ibis Dublin, and there was some confusion when we went to check in. We had…read morebooked through Travelocity, and the desk attendant insisted that we needed to pay now that we had arrived. I was pretty confident that all of our hotels for the trip had been prepaid, but after explaining this to her, I just went along with it. After we got to our room, I got on the Wi-Fi to check our credit card, and of course we had already paid. It was no big deal to go back to the front desk and have our account credited. Overall, our room was quiet, so we enjoyed our stay here.

Terrible terrible terrible. I think my terrible experience started when I finally realized that the…read morehotel is located very far from the city center. We were instructed to take the tram to the hotel and walk across an overpass through the ghetto-ist parts of Dublin. We check in and order some beer, caprese salad and Guinness Stew. I must point out that the staff is pretty depressing, no energy, no smiles...just sad. I get it...we are in the middle of no where and we are stuck with eachother for the night...sheesh. The Guiness stew and caprese were both very tasty. We spent much of the evening relaxing in the lobby and speaking with some locals. The room was simple but, clean. I slept well but, couldnt wait to return to the city centre to do more exploring. At check out (I checked out one day earlier than expected but, was told I could at no cost to me), the Front Desk Agent, Blanca, was not very friendly. She told me that the room cost was nonrefundable and there was nothing she could do. Period. I was able to reach out to Management and after several email exchanges, they informed me that my rate was refundable for the early check out. I'm a travel agent and I never had to work that hard to get my money back when I was correct the entire time. Save yourself the trouble and spend a bit more money and stay in the Dublin City Centre.

We booked The Bistro at The Green isle hotel for a family event last week. We opted for the Green…read moreIsle because they offered competitive pricing, and gave us a prompt, comprehensive response. The service we received was top class, warm and friendly, from Faustina who responded to the initial enquiry and welcomed us upon arrival, and Olivia who was took such good care of us during the afternoon, alongside the other staff who were at all times friendly helpful and professional. The choice and quality of the food was excellent, and received plenty of compliments from our guests. We'd highly recommend the Green Isle, and intend to come back again.

The pool and gym have been closed for two years and they don't seem like they will ever open it up…read moreagain. This hotel is located in Dublin 22 and there are 24 districts in Dublin so that means it is very far from city center, AKA "downtown" for American lingo. You will spend about $60 each way for a taxi to and from the airport, $35 each way to city center areas, the hotel is absolutely outdated and will not ever stay here again. I wish I got the woman's name at the front desk because she was ALWAYS rude and expected that I automatically knew the information she knew about the hotel being an employee herself. She is a brunette and wears black glasses. Spend your hard earned money elsewhere and these photos are misleading because there is no pool and no gym. The make the place look a whole lot nicer from this talented photographer.

Went for lunch in the bar food area of the Maldron hotel ( formerly bewleys ) in Clondalkin…read more Ordered the finger platter and drinks to start and that was great. Good food and nice coffee. Then our main courses came after a lengthy wait only to arrive with the wrong order. The menu didn't mention peppers in the dish and the person I was eating with is allergic to peppers so made sure to mention this just incase when ordering.. despite all this her dish arrived with peppers. The burger I ordered was wrong too. it had salad and fruit on it that I had specifically ordered it without. They offered to re make the burger but after the length of the original wait I couldn't afford the time to wait again in hope of the right order so I asked them to knock it off the bill Then a manager came over several minutes later and in a roundabout way accused us of causing the wrong order problem. She was saying that the waiter mustn't have heard us properly.. even tho I had been extra sure to mention and re mention the way I wanted my order as had the person i was with (re: peppers) and had him repeat it back to us when we made the order Very disappointing. Certainly way below the standards that bewleys had set. Not even close

Yuck. What else to…read moresay?! Well, it was clean and basic. Double bed with a wardrobe and television. But I'm pretty sure the walls were made of paper. Seriously. They were thin. We had to leave the room to tell the kids in the corridor to be quiet. They were quiet - no messing! So, I went off to sleep and got a random phone call from a random stranger asking to some nail clippers. I said he had the wrong number. Then, drifting off to sleep again, I got a phone call which stopped before I could answer it. Third time lucky.....a friendly wake-up call at around 4am from reception informing me my transport was waiting for me. I was very tired when I awoke and, being typically British, said nothing in complaint to the receptionist. I thought it wouldn't actually get me anywhere. I had to leave to early for breakfast but my husband said it was nothing special. A man of few words. Will I go back? Erm........ no.
