The hotel faces out onto a busy street with a bike lane, so you'll want to be aware of oncoming foot and bike traffic as soon as you step out the door. The location is decent, with a small grocery store around the corner and small food vendors nearby. It's fairly easy to walk around and get to the busier streets. The rooms are average, I wouldn't say they're memorable but the highlight for me at this hotel is the restaurant and how well they took care of our group. We had a set dinner menu and the options were not only delicious but well portioned for a hungry crowd. Service was also top-notch. The servers were helpful, attentive, and understanding to this group of tourists. read more

Really enjoyed this hotel. Very classy and fancy. Rooms made me feel fancy. Enjoyed the breakfast before a big day.

I am getting the sense that the hotel was recently upgraded by some of the older reviews, because we had a wonderful time at the Address Connolly and thought it was a very good price for a nice hotel in a great area. The only thing I will note -- and I see others have as well -- was that the air conditioning wasn't working the first time we stayed there and some workers did come in. The only notice we received was a knock at the door, but they were really friendly and our good moods were not to be deterred. For some folks I imagine this would immediately knock a star off, but it really wasn't that big of a nuisance for us. The breakfast (something like 15 euro pp) was DELICIOUS. Truly some of the best breakfast I had for the two weeks we traveled and it had many options (full Irish breakfast, pastries, cereals, pancakes - but I couldn't figure out the machine, cold cuts, etc.). Both of the rooms we stayed at were nicely updated, but the second was nicer (I think we may have accidentally been upgraded). Thanks! Fantastic location on the North side of the river, which I prefer and within walking distance to my favorite pub, The Celt. The taxi from the airport was 25 euro. I would definitely recommend the Address Connolly. read more

They bent over backwards for our honeymoon! Upgraded us to the best room there for a great price and even brought our bags up from the room we were initially in. Staff was superb! read more

There are so many things that I could say about our experience here, and I will... To start, we enjoyed the location of the property the most. The hotel is located RIGHT by the train station and bus routes, you can get anywhere you need/want to go. Bonus, the hotel restaurant stays open until 11, serving food until about 950. This was great because everywhere else in the area stopped serving food between 6-7 o'clock. More on this later... Use of the spa was definitely worth the upgrade to the CLUB room, it was clean and tidy every morning we went... best to go in the morning because no one is there and it's an incredible start to the day. The breakfast ahhh, the breakfast... just do it. Trust us. It was SO worth it. There were so many options and it was DELICIOUS. And let's talk about the staff... wonderful. Actually correction certain staff were great, others we weren't super fond of (if you stay in the club rooms get ready for slamming doors starting at 7 AM; to be fair that's a mix of cleaning crew and guests). That being said, Thierno and Sean in the restaurant, Isabell from the front desk, and all of the breakfast staff every morning (we couldn't remember the name tags or we would've named them all)... we cannot thank you enough for the amazing service we were provided during our stay. Thierno and Sean were extremely attentive to our needs, serving us the best drinks and food. They were super personable and they engaged us in conversation. And Isabell upon check in, even when she was busy, was extremely attentive and got us checked in in a very timely manor (she also said hi to us every morning when we were off for the day). Honestly, if I could give it more than 5 stars I would. I would recommend this stay to anyone who plans to visit Dublin. read more

DO NOT STAY HERE. EMAIL I SENT AFTER OUR STAY, AND I'VE HEARD NOTHING BACK FROM THEM - MAJOR WATER LEAKING/AC ISSUES, AND BLOOD ON OUR SHEETS. We recently stayed at The Address Connolly in Dublin, Ireland, and could not be more disappointed and appalled by the conditions in which we stayed, that were addressed in a less than satisfactory manner. The manager, Feargal, was horrible and did nothing at all to help us We checked in on July 22, and we stayed for 2 nights, checking out on July 24, 2024. We booked a family room/suite, as our travel party was myself and my husband, and our two children, ages 12 and 14. We were given 2 rooms that adjoined, which was fine with us as we had them close and we were all together. On the morning of July 23, I woke up to get ready for the day and went towards the bathroom to get in the shower. I slipped completely, on what, to my surprise and shock, was water all over our floor. The air conditioner had apparently been dripping significantly throughout the night, and the floor was flooded with water. Had I not quickly grabbed onto the small stand with the coffee maker on it, I would have completely fallen and possibly truly have hurt myself. We had a train booked to Howth that day, so we had plans to be gone for most of the day. I used the shower in the adjoining room, and we went and discussed this situation with the front desk. They assured us they would look into it and make sure it was fixed or we would be moved to another room, and they would help move our stuff in our absence. I asked for the manager and asked if we were to be reimbursed for this room for the night, as this was not even remotely acceptable. He looked directly at me and said it was most unlikely that anything would be done in terms of any compensation at all. When we returned from a full day trip to Howth, around 7:30pm, all we wanted to do was go to our rooms, shower, relax, and go to bed. We checked at the front desk, and they assured us that our room was repaired and all would be fine for the night - that we did not need to change rooms. While skeptical, we went to our rooms, to find that it was all dried and set back to right a bit. So, we turned on the AC, and set about getting ready to get into bed. Within 30 minutes, our AC/ceiling was leaking significantly - AGAIN. So, nothing was actually repaired - they simply dried up the leak, and kept us in a room that had a major leaking issue. We went to the front desk again - even though we were beat, and had already been told this issue was resolved - and again asked for the manager. It was a different one this time. He apologized, and offered us free breakfast the next morning, and a new room. So, now we had dealt with this issue in the morning, which was a hassle, in hopes we would NOT have to deal with is anymore. Instead, we were dealing with it again because a band aid was applied instead of a fix. However, with the new room, they told us we would NOT have a family suite. So - we would be in totally different rooms from our children, though we had booked and paid for the adjoining family rooms. We were very unhappy about this, and asked that he call his general manager, who was off for the evening. The GM basically told us we could take this free breakfast and a new, completely separate room, or stay in the room that had water dripping all over the floor, coffee stand, and ceiling. With no recourse, we took the new room, which at the very least was on the same floor as our children, so we were just down the hall on Floor 8. As soon as we walked into the new room, we were absolutely appalled. This room apparently had an even worse issue with the air conditioner, and there were water marks all around the ceiling unit AND the paint was peeling all around it as well. We turned on the AC, just in case it was old damage and the unit had been repaired, and in less than 10 minutes, water was dripping from the ceiling all around the AC unit. At this point, we had: 1. Addressed it first thing in the morning - told it would be resolved by time we got back from our day trip 2. Were given the SAME room when we returned from a full and tiring day's travel - and experienced the exact same issue 3. Gotten a new - and separate - room from our children - and walked into this room only to experience and even worse, but exact, same issue with water. By this time, we were both extremely frustrated as well as exhausted. Keith, my husband, went back yet again to the front desk and we went though it all again. Again, the GM was called - and again, they said the exact same thing - go to either our original (and damaged) room, take the new room, with an even bigger issue, OR - they could give us yet ANOTHER room, but this one would be even further from our children, on floor 9. We took that room with no other cho read more

This hotel is the literal worst. They have cool buttons and stuff in their suites but as far as management and guest relations - forget it. When we checked in, I waited for my partner to park the car. We were given really poor instruction and a terrible map that didn't have street names and it was very small. Spent an hour trying to find the lot they told us to park in. I found one of the 'general' manager types who took me outside and pointed to the lot that was across the street to the left (not easily reachable due to all the street construction and rerouting). We parked in that lot only to have found the car booted the next morning. The lot attendant said that lot was not for the hotel. The hotel said otherwise and regardless, we were stuck with a 125 euro fee which the hotel didn't reimburse us for. Secondly, when I asked a bellman to help me with the luggage, the manager told me 'no' because he was needed to help pull luggage that was sitting on the sidewalk. Not my problem... I paid my fee as did whoever that luggage belonged to but that person didn't deserve ALL the bellman on duty. I told the manager that he absolutely made me feel like I was less deserving of the hotel services than other guests (and btw, I had a large suite). The location is another concern. There is a lot of sketchy folks hanging around. Do not walk around there at night. In fact, stay clear of this hotel by miles! read more

My recent stay at the Address Connolly was a complete letdown, primarily due to the abysmal customer service, notably from front of house manager Feargal. From the moment we walked in, the welcome was anything but warm; it felt cold and transactional. There were no pleasantries, not even a smile. Upon requesting an ice bucket and glasses for the room, the response was lackluster at best. Without even bothering to look up, his response was "the bar" with no further guidance. I probed for direction on how to get there and went to fetch it myself. Furthermore, there was no information was provided about our stay amenities like room details, WiFi, or breakfast, Feargal seemed indifferent and uninformative. I had contacted the hotel both via email and phone prior to our visit and purchased a cheeseboard and chocolate covered strawberries. I spoke to a lovely lady on the phone explaining our exact time of arrival and requested that the gifts be in the room for our arrival, she assured me a note would be added about this. My reason for this was we would only have a 90 minutes before leaving to attend a concert. We arrived in the room to find these absent. I called down to reception and had yet another disheartening conversation with Feargal. I explained my disappointment and that we would not be staying in the hotel for long before heading to a concert, therefore could not wait long on it arriving. I asked if I could have a refund or have the money I spent transferred to cover breakfast. His demeanor was unapologetic and cold and he refused to refund or transfer the money. He assured me the food would be up in 5 minutes and said that the reason this was not done was because they would never leave fresh food in a room with no guests. I understand this reasoning however I tried to explain that I had been assured this would be there by a member of staff for my husbands arrival when I called beforehand. When the waiter arrived, he dropped some of the crackers and cheese on the floor in front of us, he then proceeded to pick them up and set them on the board without acknowledgment or apology and left the room. We were quite frankly shocked. I had to call the waiter back from the hall and I explained very clearly that we would not like to eat food that has been on the floor. Even when we pointed out the dropped food to the waiter, their response was dismissive and he just pointed to the food that had not been dropped and said "but this is clean". He eventually took the dirty food in his hand away from the room. My husband then went to the front desk to raise this issue and yet again was met by none other than helpful Feargal. This interaction was yet again unapologetic and there was a severe lack of understanding as to why this service was disappointing. Feargal said he would speak to the waiter and said there was probably a language barrier, he also said a replacement would be sent up. By this stage we had an hour left before we had to leave. We waited the hour, no replacement arrived so we then left our hotel room to attend the concert we had tickets for. We walked past the front desk and Feargal was no longer there. When we returned around 11, we were greeted with the stench of blue cheese as the replacement cheeseboard had arrived that had been left sitting in our room for what was clearly hours. Despite Feargal previously explaining to us that fresh food would not be put in a room with no guests. I cannot confirm if this one had been dropped on the floor and then put back for us to eat. Needless to say we did not eat the soft crackers and hardened cheese. Upon check out, I was met by Eoin and I requested to speak to someone to make a complaint. He said he would get Feargal, I requested to speak to someone else as it was pointless making a complaint to Feargal about himself. I was told, there was no one else. When Feargal approached I also asked him who I could speak to, he explained that there was no-one above him, not anyone that would have any affect on his front desk anyway. He came across as entitled and as though he thought he was untouchable. As you can imagine, this interaction was completely frustrating and so disheartening as an end to our overnight stay that was supposed to be special. When I raised the point of his customer service and how we were not made to feel welcome, he comment was "I just check you in, if you are expecting me to move heaven and earth to welcome you then you are mistaken". my experience at The Address Connolly was marred by poor customer service, unwelcoming demeanor, and a lack of accountability. It's clear that hospitality and guest satisfaction are not priorities here, leaving much to read more

At 1st glance this is an elegant, boutique hotel. The style is nice and hip. It gives off an air of contemporary sophistication. Underneath all of that, it's a run down building with uneven hallways that make you feel like you're in one of those roadside carnival wobbly funhouses. Our 1st room was on the 1st floor, up a flight of stairs on the old side of the hotel. This side has no lift, so it's stairs to whichever floor you may be on. We climb the stairs and have to push through 3 sets of heavy doors to find our room. It is spacious with a queen and single bed. The room is nicer than I expected after the wobbly walk. We are above the entrance of the hotel so there are lots of people walking below to the train station. We get ready to go to dinner and realize the toilet does not flush. The manager arrives and said it will be fixed by the time we get back from dinner. It was not. We were moved to a room on the "premium" side of the building. This room was nice but a bit smaller than the 1st. There is a balcony that looks over the rooftops of some other buildings and you can see the stadium. Pretty nice upgrade. The toilet works and it has a large tub for soaking. The dining staff were so kind and were having to deal with some pretty rude guests. read more

when our tour bus arrived at the hotel, Philipi helped us all tagging our luggage until our rooms were ready. we arrived early but he was outstanding in the process and very patient with everyone who kept asking questions as he was trying to get all the luggage tagged - for 28 people. And before the next tour bus came with 35 more people. Professional, attentive to people's needs. rooms comfortable, and clean. Good location - walking distance to many places to eat and places to tour. Restaurant attached had good food, great stafff and excellent service. JB ~ Texas read more

I agree with the other reviews. Every part had good/bad. It has a parking lot, but it's not free, and our car was covered in bird poop. And that's how we started the trip. The room was tiny, but clean. Great bed. Unbelievably loud because the train tracks were about 20 feet away, along with the car park. The internet was not good. The location was nearby, but my boyfriend didn't even want me to walk to the corner by myself. Slightly sketchy feeling neighborhood. There is no elevator to get to the rooms. The fitness room was awesome. And the breakfast was really outstanding. Plus, they accommodate gluten free, etc. very well. read more

We booked a trip through aer lingus and this was our initial and departure stay. For the initial stay the floor in our room was definitely not level and every time the toilet was sat on what we hoped was water leaked into the area that the plumbing went behind the toilet. I guess we can just be glad we weren't in the room below. On our arrival back the air conditioning in our room didn't work. We weren't the only ones - there were multiple in the lobby waiting to be helped. Our complaints weren't as bad as their's so we just dealt with it. Highly recommend not booking vacation packages with aer lingus vacations. read more

Stayed here when I went to watch the six nations at the aviva. It is directly opposite Connolly station so very easy to get to and handy to hop on the dart to go anywhere else.

The bar was a nice and welcoming and room service was fantastic ! read more

I looked at the North Star with a view to making a booking for a group of clients, and was happy to make the booking in the end. This is the kind of hotel that often gets overlooked because of it's location, but with the city centre spreading out down towards the docks and the route of the luas it's certainly a hotel to think about now. It's actually quite a large hotel spreading back and it's not that far from the city centre and opposite the DART line, luas line and Connolly station. The management at the hotel have made significant upgrades to the bedroom meaning that they've achieved a reasonable standard for a hotel. They also offer very good room rates, as well as packages for matches. read more

The Address Connolly - from hotels website www.northstarhotel.ie - Hotels Near Me - Dublin, D

This hotel was not our choice but booked by our agent and this location is not in the best part of town but it was very walk-able to other sights in Dublin. It is right across from the train station and we could hear and see the commuter trains from our room. We were on the 5th floor and the room was clean but on the small side. The WIFI was good, the TV was poor, it kept shutting off. The parking lot is right next door and was 8 euro/night, it is operated by another party 24/7. We had no problem getting our car out at 5:45 AM departure. read more

I don't recommend staying here. As soon as we arrived, two young boys broke the door of our tour bus and tried to steal our bags. The hotel doesn't have security guards and doesn't seem interested in adding any, so our driver needed to chase the kids away himself. My shower also didn't work and the staff generally seemed uninterested in addressing any problems. read more

Not bad, not bad at all for lunch. My recollection of the North Star would have been less than positive, a run-down railway hotel in a decidedly seedy part of town. The neighbourhood is still pretty grim but the North Star, recently refurbished apparently, is an oasis of civilisation in comparison. My companion, who works in the area, eats here regularly, was on 1st name terms with the floor staff and used the timeless 'my usual' when ordering lunch. This turned out to be a prawn and crayfish salad which was huge and, judging by her cleared plate afterwards, acceptable. I ordered a burger which was pretty good too although I got got skinny chips whereas she got fabulous chunky ones. The benefit of being a regular I guess. A very pleasant and surprisingly comfortable way of passing a Friday lunchtime. Worth a look. read more

My parents and I stayed here for a week and we really enjoyed our stay. My parents stayed in the newer wing with all the upgrades and fancy, high tech room gadgets. I stayed in the older part but it was still great. I really liked my view of the olds train tracks and train station. Compared to Arizona with all its stucco, heat and boring desert landscape this was refreshing. The staff was pretty friendly, most of the time. There was one guy at the front desk that was kind of an ass but everyone else was fine. We really liked their restaurant at the front of the hotel too. Fantastic food!! The location was perfect too. Close enough to walk to shopping, tour buses and public transportation within a few minutes. I would definitely stay here if I'm ever in Dublin again. read more

This hotel is almost good. It's on the cusp. Pros: the location (across the street from the main train station - makes day tripping super easy), the lobby is lovely, the rooms are recently renovate, the staff is friendly, there is a luggage hold for after check out. The cons: the location (near any train station is quite gritty - not great for being out late, especially for singles or women), our room didn't have a/c (the unit didn't seem to be even circulating the air, making it a glorified white noise machine). It wasn't the worst hotel we have stayed in, but if we go this way again, we won't be back. read more

This hotel is really mod and clean! The TV is huge! We slept like babies in their beds! Only think the A/c did not cool at all! We woke up in a sweatAn easy walk to O Connell st and they accommodated my 20 or so Irish relatives in a private area out back! I would stay here again!!! read more

My husband & I went to Dublin last September & decided to stay here since it was moderately close to the city and of course Temple Bar. Come to find out the "free wifi" was not free if you booked from another outlet other than the North Stars own website or telephone line, so if you used hotels.com or any other hotel site, free wifi is not included! With that outta the way... The hotel it self was ok, not soooo nice, but not crappy either, we were not in the room long, basically to shower, get ready, sleep and do all again for 7 nights. If you are looking for outta your mine crazy nice hotel, then pass on this one, it was nice & affordable ...dont get me wrong, it was decent, just not a luxurious hotel that you feel pampered in, I would stay there again if I had too, but probably wouldnt just so I can experience the countryside the next time. But it was extremely affordable in us dollars. Oh yea and I must mention, the staff was nice too : ) read more

My main complaint is that we were promised free wireless internet access, and the wireless was down/inoperable for our entire 3-night stay. How difficult could that be to fix? Go buy a new server and router, plug them in, and problem solved. Apparently, this concept was beyond the hotel's comprehension. They kept telling me that people were coming to fix it in the morning, in the afternoon, in the evening . . . . It never got fixed. I stayed with my girlfriend, and booked in advance over the internet. We wanted a normal room with one double/queen/king bed. Instead, we got a HUGE room with THREE beds (room 370), a couch and coffee table, a separate seating area, etc. in it. I guess the hotel considered this a nice "free" upgrade. It was comfortable enough, but it felt kind of like we were staying in some weird giant dormatory room or a warehouse or something. And the matresses, while not uncomfortable, have permanent, deep impressions in them where people have slept for the past twenty or forty years. Time to upgrade . . . . Minusses: The aforementioned complete lack of wireless/internet access. No fridge in room. No safe in room. Tiny, ancient TV that did not work well and had to be turned on and off manually. No newspapers (including one the desk promised to deliver to my room). Bad neighborhood -- The place locks down like a fortress at about 11:30 p.m., and for good reason. It's kind of sketchy outside after dark. (The one night I was out late ( 1:00 a.m.), a stranger beckoned from the dark and tried to sell me heroin or meth or something just around the corner from the hotel.) Plusses: Attached to a nice pub with a covered, heated outdoor "beer garden"/smoking area that is very pleasant. The staff was very nice, if somewhat useless (re:internet). Within reasonable walking distance from most of the tourist destinations in Dublin, and across the street from the train station and around the corner from the bus station. Free continental breakfast dowstairs from 7:00 to 10:00 each morning. Quite convenient. I'd stay here again, but only if I got a very good rate on the room. Do not pay a premium here. It's not worth it. read more

We booked this hotel with our flight through Expedia and the price couldn't be beat! It is just on the skirts of the city center of Dublin which is perfect because you don't have the issue of drunken people outside of your hotel. The lobby as well as the rest of the hotel is immaculate! It is very modern yet welcoming. The rooms are the perfect size and the bathtub was a nice surprise! Breakfast was not included in our stay price however for €13,50 it is well worth it! I highly recommend this hotel for your next stay. read more

My parents recently stayed here and i must say i was surprised as how good the place is. Thats why you should never judge a book by its cover. The hotel has fairly recently been refurnished and it looks really good. The room are well furnished and really clean. Staff are super friendly and really attentive. I ate in the restaurant a number of times with my parents and every time was excellent. Obviously the location is ideal for anyone visiting dublin city as its so close to all attractions and opposite to connoly station and near busaras. Ok so the area its a little dodgy at night but once your careful I think it's pretty safe. read more

We just stayed here for one evening. It's a great area near some local pubs and 15 mins walk to temple bar. The place looks alright but indoors its nice. While we were drinking some wine with 2 friends and having some pizza, we had a brutal knock on the door. As we approached the door, management BARGED through the door and opened it!! My man stopped her from entering and she states we had a complaint and if we didn't quiet down at 2345 we had to go to our own rooms..

I'm sitting here in my incredibly loud hotel room. The window is open about an inch because there's no heating or sit and it's the only way to get some air around. The noise outside can't be helped but the pounding music inside can. I can't figure out where it's coming from but it must be a pub because it never stops and sounds like it's next door. Add to that a terrible dinner (TERRIBLE) at their restaurant and bad service (except for a nice manager), and so far ... This is by far my worst hotel experience in Ireland. Such a bummer on the tail end of our trip. Loudness everywhere, beds smaller than a twin, a terribly unhelpful front desk attendant, no parking...too bad. All of Ireland has been kind, welcoming, sweet and caring until now. read more

This place was really nice, 4 stars only because their building another frigging building right outside my terrace...(literally see photos!). But they won't be building that forever, so when that's finished there won't be a 40 something man with a hard hat whacking away at a steel beam at 8:40am...but I digress. The rooms are incredibly clean, the staff is beyond helpful, and the Resterant is killer. Located right outside the main train station, great place to hang your hat after a longish journey. read more

We stayed here for 3 nights over a weekend. I think the hotel is over priced for what you are getting. It is a lot farther from the city center of Dublin than what they described, which means a 20 minute walk or $10 cab ride. The room was decently clean but very musty. It was obvious that they don't clean the bathroom very thoroughly when I drew on the fogged bathroom mirror and noticed the same design 2 nights later on the mirror. The walls of the hotel are paper thin so we were able to hear every time people entered and exited their rooms. Bobby at the front desk is rude. I was debating cancelling my third night due to the expensive price and distance from the city center and he wasn't very nice about it. I felt the location was safe and I did not visit the hotel's restaurant. read more

Beautiful hotel in the heart of Dublin! Loved the robes and breakfast smoothies at reception in the morning. The only reason I'm giving less than 5 stars is that after upgrading our room, I was interrogated mid-sip of my delicious cappuccino at breakfast and told my room number was not on the VIP lounge list. The woman was very rude and said she would have to report me (for something that was a mistake of the hotel). It was too bad we ended an otherwise perfect trip with a negative experience read more

I really enjoyed my stay here for my trip to Ireland. When I booked my trip, it included a different hotel but offered the option to upgrade to The North Star. I choose the upgrade since this was located right in the city. Upon arriving, the front desk staff was extremely accommodating and assisted with any touristy questions I had. When you walk in, you're surrounded by a nicely updated lobby with exposed stone walls and mood lighting. To your left is the bar/restaurant and they have a concierge desk specifically for any tour, bar, and taxi questions you may have. The room was small and basic but nice as we knew we'd only be sleeping there. There were no loud guests or obnoxious children running around the hotel like here in the states lol. I wish I got to check out the finish room and sauna while I stayed but let's face it, I was on vacation. On the corner there's a convenient store, 2 pizza places, a burger joint and a few breakfast spots. PERFECT In conclusion, I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone who won't be spending the majority of their time in a hotel room. read more

I would never stay at this hotel and would not recommend this hotel to my worse enemy. We did a two week stay in Ireland, and Dublin was our last stop before leaving to go back home. We stayed here two nights, and it was miserable. First, we didn't get any direction to our room, and the lobby elevator did not work. We eventually walked around and realized there was another set of elevators to get to. Once we got to our room, we realized the view from our room was train tracks and walls. The train was noisy in the morning. The first night we were there, we went out with some friends and came home to realize the doors were locked to the lobby. We had to ring the bell a bunch of times to get in, and than were questioned very rudely on what room we were staying in and our names. I understand security of the hotel, but it was odd they had the door to the main lobby entrance locked. The next day I tried to use the WiFi to check work emails, and it didn't work at all. The worse part about this hotel, was the temperature of our room and lack of service to fix it. Our room was literally 80 degrees both nights. My boyfriend and I were dripping sweat in our sleep. We called down at 8am the second day we were there asking if someone could come up and check our thermostat and someone came up 45 minutes later and said the air was working. It clearly wasn't. There was no cold air coming out at all. We got up, and went out for the day and came back to a VERY hot room. We were staying with a big group of people and two other families in our party changed rooms because of the same problem. We went to the front desk after dinner and asked fans to be brought up. An hour later, I had to call down again to request the fans. The manager gave me attitude, like we were being impatient as paying guests for complaining about things that he couldn't control. After hours of trying to sleep, we still were extremely hot, so we called down again and requested to be moved to a different room. They told us it was too late to move us and if we wanted to be moved we should have requested earlier in the day. The lack of service, accommodation, and acceptable room temperatures were by far the WORSE hotel we stayed in while in Ireland (we did a two week tour and stayed in 6 separate hotels/Airbnbs.) I would never stay here again, or pay high rates as the hotel staff, location, and room temperatures are terrible. read more

The hotel is super clean, great restaurants/cafe, service is impecable. Martin at the concierge provides the utmost professional service. Thank you so much for a great experience! Cheers! read more

Wow....following a very recent renovation of the hotel, the bar has been transformed in to a very modern Gastro pub. The menu is fabulously tailored to meet a wider clientèle with a fantastic (if not one of the best) smoking areas and this coming from someone who doesn't smoke. The bar is definitely worth 5 stars....the rooms in the premier club are stunning! This hotel is pulling out all the stops....hopefully it will pay off for them in the end read more

Strange one to recommend maybe - but - went there after work for dinner with a few workmates - nice selection on menu - from the fish, chicken, steaks, pork, lamb, that we ordered there was nothing but compliments from all! Service was great, staff attentive (but not too attentive), prices were reasonable, atmosphere was good. (This place used to be a no go place to eat in my opinion. It used to be smelly, old and worn, - a place to go to the toilet if you were catching a train - but it's been renovated in the past year and it looks and feels great!!) If your in this part of town and want to rethink where to eat - definitely worth a gamble! read more

The reception area is really cool and a great mix of old and new. The rooms are very small. We expected that. However, the "new standard of luxury" is an overstretch. We had a huge hole in our bathroom wall in the first room and after a discussion with one of the front desk people and the manager were switched to a better room. But, by better, we mean not damaged. The bathroom was very outdated and looked dirty, even though I guess it probably wasn't? Every other hotel staff member was dismissive, seemed irritated when we spoke to them and were not helpful. On a positive note, the attached restaurant/pub was really great. All being said and done, we are unlikely to use this hotel in Dublin again. read more

First I would like to start with the positives. The reception area is beautiful. Old stone work and leather chairs mixed with modern decor. The staff were curtious and friendly. However, the standard of their rooms let them down here. Air conditioning did not work at all. I called down to reception and they promptly sent someone up. He looked at it and said he would be back with another maintainence person. This did not happen (perhaps they arrived after we went out) and when we got back nothing had changed. I called down again and was told that the maintainence person was busy and would we like a fan for the night while we waited. We got the fan but no one showed to fix the air con. Other problems included the shower head being loose, the shower pressure being off and the shower door leaking on to the ground. Poor plastering throughout and for the price I paid, would've expected at least a properly working shower. The public areas of the hotel seem immaculate and it is unfortunate that the rooms are not up to standard. We will not be returning. read more

See all

Location is not the best but it's a quick walk to the action. Small rooms but they were clean and relatively comfortable. The WIFI however is hopeless. Better to call it non existent. Valet car park on site for €8. Proximity to the airport makes this a good choice for a last night. They offer a shuttle service for €5 pp. read more
