Room was very clean ,restaurant staff were friendly.
Nice ambiance in the reception area
We enjoyed our stay at this well-located hotel in Malahide. The room was very clean and comfortable (our only quibble was that the pillows were not as comfortable as the bed.) The breakfast buffet is very good. The staff were friendly and helpful. We'll stay here again the next time we're in Malahide.

The Grand Hotel is set in a perfect location in Malahide and is presented to the highest order.
The staff were very friendly, helpful and professional.
Overall and lovely stay and highly recommended.
Excellent stay post Christmas. Just what we needed. Hotel has had a beautiful upgrade. We’ve stayed many times. This was the best. So many options for a coffee to full meals. Nespresso machine in our room. Beautiful areas to sit & relax, read etc. Can't wait to return.
Our stay at the Grand hotel on New Years eve was great. Our room was very nice and the upgrade very welcome. Thr hotrl was decorated lovely for Christmas and there was a hood atmosphere for New Years eve. The breakfast however was nice a good selection but the cooked breakfast was not warm, eggs were very over cooked and everythong else cool and rubbery.
