Clayton Hotel Dublin Airport Central

8/10 Good
"We were tired and ready to go to bed. We got forwarded by airport staff to the wrong hotel: Clayton Hotel Dublin Airport. We were supposed to go to Clayton Hotel Dublin Airport *Central*. It ended up costing us an extra hour of time and money spent because we did not want to wait for the shuttle. Please rename one of these hotels in future. hotel itself is a great value though!"
