Top RDS Main Arena Hotel Reviews

Marlin Hotel Stephens Green

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed our stay at this hotel. It seems to be tucked away yet it's less than a 5 minute walk to Grafton street and Stephen's Green which was awesome. there is a restaurant and coffee/beer cart in the lobby which was convenient. I had zero interaction with the staff other than to validate parking. There are kiosks to check in and check out so you may never actually speak to a single worker. If you are the kind that likes more of a human touch just know that. We enjoyed our stay and the size of the room was huge from our experience in getting a family room in Europe. However, the pull out sofa bed which is the second bed was HORRENDOUS. no one could sleep on it. it appeared broken, bowed int he middle and was basically a pad laying on metal poles. Unfortunate since the actual bed was amazing."

Pembroke Townhouse

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful property and rooms. Really relaxing atmospheric right beside the Stephens Green"

The Dean Dublin Docklands- Formerly The Mayson

8/10 Good

"This charming little hotel is in a perfect location, especially if you like walking the waterfront. The staff are incredibly welcoming and helpful. I really enjoyed the cosy room with all the amenities. but if you’re sensitive to noise the 5th floor picks up the restaurant like you’re in the same area. But it shuts down around 10pm. I’ll definitely be back."

Donnybrook Hall

10/10 Excellent

"Really wonderful little bnb. Kind, helpful staff; I really felt right at home. I was in room 10, which felt like my own little bungalow. My one suggestion would be to put a full-length mirror in the room."

Clayton Hotel Ballsbridge

8/10 Good

"Room was ok although there was a problem with the water for the bath never really being hot. 'Night Manager' fobbed us off when we brought it to his attention. Breakfast excellent, lots of choice. Reception staff do a great job."

Herbert Park Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great"

The Sandymount Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and comfortable! Restaurant on site and being wothin walking distance to the Dart for transporting into Dublin city center were both very convenient. Friendly and helpful staff."

Roxford Lodge Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I have stayed many times at the Roxford Lodge Hotel and I am never disappointed! I was greeted by the lovely Victoria who offered to store my suitcase as I arrived very early. Victoria was very pleasant and helpful. As usual the room was spotless and has the advantage of air conditioning or heat. The local bus is right outside the door and the dart is about a 10-15 min walk. The air coach to go to the airport is also close by. I highly recommend the Roxford Lodge and will be staying here again next year!"

The Leinster

10/10 Excellent

"The bartenders in the Collins club were excellent. Food was very good."
