Great stay and so convenient to Dublin sites! The staff were wonderful... manager Dermot was so committed to guest satisfaction that he was directing parking during a particularly busy night upon our arrival, ensuring everyone had a space and felt welcome to the hotel. Room was everything we needed - so appreciate the fridge - and the property is beautiful. Enjoyed Drumcondra pubs and had an easy ride down to the Liffey for all our touring. Would definitely stay again!

This is our favorite go to hotel when we visit Dublin as it's only a short drive from the motorway, easy to get a taxi or other transport when required. Staff are extremely helpful, friendly and courteous.

Fantastic hotel in a lovely Dublin suburb. Close to the airport with a bus stop right outside the hotel and also buses direct into central Dublin. Lots of nice places to eat and drink in the Drumcondra area itself too. The rooms were very spacious and the beds were comfortable. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Great hotel. Clean, comfortable and spacious room, reception staff were friendly and helpful. On-site parking. Some nice places to eat and drink a short walk away. Hotel bar was also lovely. Would definately stay here again.

Arrived at the hotel and was amazed at the service outside the door. A well dressed Gentleman cane rushing to help us with our bags and was so cheerful. Only to find out he was the Manager himself. We had just arrived from a long flight and the staff did their best to get us an early check in. The only thing I could say that could be better is the service in the bar and grill where breakfast is served. Could not get a waiter to come by and check in on anything we needed. Had to get up to find extra sugar and ketchup etc. but the food was great !

We didn’t realize how far from many tour sites the hotel was. We did appreciate staff help with taxis and with a car park. Also, appreciated help with refrigeration of my wife’s insulin and container for her insulin. Thought the restaurant was expensive and food was average or less.

The hotel was an average hotel. The rooms were clean and well stocked. The location was amazing and very easy to get on and off the bus. The staff was very helpful and accommodating. There are two big things that were not great. First, the non-slip mat for the tub didn’t stick and it felt like you were surfing. Removing it and showering without was just as scary. It was very dangerous. Second the parking was a huge disaster. The spots are very limited and no car was turned away so people parked in spots there were not spots, which made it very hard to get a car in or out.

Nice hotel, convenient location halfway between Dublin and the airport. The staff is friendly and dedicated. The bathroom is well appointed and the towels are fluffy. I wish they offered A/C.
