Lovely hotel, staff very helpful & polite. Gasworks bar attached to hotel very good, as was small coffee shop in hotel. Our room was excellent, clean & tea/coffee/water replenished daily & with a lovely small balcony- only issue we had was room very hot, air conditioning worked although a bit noisy & I feel that I’m being picky! We really enjoyed our weekend, fantastic situation for rugby at Aviva

It’s in the business district but walkable (about 1 mile/1.6 km) to all the big tourist sites in Dublin City Centre. Wonderful staff. Great pub for drinks and food on site.

The hotel is easy to get to with a bus from the airport, and nearby several food and drink options. Rooms were nice, clean, and no complaints there. Breakfast Full Irish was very good as hotel buffets go. Good beer selection at the bar. The only small issue we had was that the room cards deactivated multiple times over a 5-night stay, and we had to keep going to the front desk to get them set up again. One of the staff said it may be due to keeping them too close to our phones, but they were not in the same pocket as our phones so this was not the cause. Staff were polite, helpful, and fast at resetting the key cards though, so a minor inconvenience in a hotel I had no other issues with.

It was a great stay. The staff was amazing and friendly. They are very helpful and attentive. The lobby was awesome we ate and drank in the lobby nightly. The rooms are clean and comfy. When I return to Dublin this is where I will be staying. I still can’t say enough at how amazing the staff was.

This was one of the best hotel experiences my family has had. The staff was amazing and helped us book tours and taxis. The eating area in the entrance was great for staying up late and drinking wine with friends. They are very very accommodating. The eating places nearby are really good. You can walk home without worry after slamming down a few pints. The staff was very international with staff from multiple countries including the US. This is a must stay if you go to Dublin .

Too short of stay
Hotel was really nice. Had a restaurant and a little bar with coffee/tea/snacks in the lobby. Room was spacious, and clean. Did find 3 spiders in bathroom… but other than that it was a great experience. Would stay again. And they hold your luggage for you if your room isn’t ready which is really nice.

The shower didn't work! The water was dangerously hot and it was impossible to change the temperature so I could only sponge bathe. We informed the management when we checked out.
