10/10 Excellent
"Unfortunately, several members of our party got held up in the U.S. due to severe weather, but those that arrived really enjoyed the Hotel. Location was outstanding, and the staff was extremely accomodating to our needs while in Dublin. We look forward to staying at the Ashling Hotel in the future!"
