Point A Dublin Parnell Street

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location, clean rooms, friendly and helpful staff. Love that it has airconditioning and a lift. Not too crazy about their breakfast but there are convenient eating places around. Lidle and Tesco supermarket are literally a few steps away."

Marlin Hotel Stephens Green

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel was lovely. Very welcoming and staff all friendly. My husband has a soy intolerance and this was clearly labelled on the menu so made it very easy for him to know what he could eat. He was able to have a full Irish breakfast with sourdough bread which was great as usually he can struggle to have a breakfast due to soy being in it. Breakfast was lovely and a good selection of hot and cold foods. We staying in a Cosy King room which was fine for the 2 of us and staff welcomed us with a plate saying Happy Birthday with cake and fruit which we appreciated as a lovely touch. Location of hotel was great. Just a short walk to shops and public transport. WiFi was fine, we had no issues connecting and using it. Improvements - There was some wear and tear to the framework of the bed in the room that needing addressing. Self check-in system a great idea however needs to be quicker. Took a while to complete as had to input my home address which didn’t understand as would have been on the original booking and there were other repetitive questions. Would be easier just to ask for DOB, surname and date of stay. Or maybe if it’s for security reasons have an email sent with a unique code. These are only minor improvements it is a great hotel and we had a lovely time exploring Dublin."

Temple Bar Hotel Dublin by The Unlimited Collection

8/10 Good

"Nice rooms, helpful staff and a nice lobby. Beds were very comfy and good air conditioning. No nightstand or outlets on one side of the bed, which was pretty inconvenient. Location is right in the middle of Temple Bar so be warned that rooms facing the street are noisy at night."

citizenM Dublin St. Patrick's

10/10 Excellent

"Rooms were compact, but designed well and super clean. Hotel was just outside of the busy area with a short walk. Staff were amazing and couldn't do enough for us. Breakfast was good, with choices of cooked and continental. The bar was stocked well and served relatively priced drinks. A super stay and would recommend"
