Arlington Hotel O'Connell Bridge

8/10 Good

"Common areas are well maintained but our room was a bit thread bare. Check in staff was a bit alof but all other encounters with hotel staff were friendly, especially the breakfast staff. The older woman who directs you to a table was a delight! The hotel is centrally located but some of the immediate area felt dodgy."

Zanzibar Locke

10/10 Excellent

"Staff especially Maria was excellent! After complaining that the AC was not working, Maria contacted maintenance and promptly advised that further investigation is needed. She offered to change our rooms which we did. I left a makeup mirror in the old room and Maria retrieved it the next day. Maria was extremely helpful. Hotel location is in an excellent location close to many restaurants and transportation to airport and train station. We enjoyed our stay. Only improvements is to provide tissue paper and slippers for guests comfort."

Staycity Aparthotels, Dublin, Mark Street

10/10 Excellent

"Great staff, very good location and decent breakfast. The design of the room could be improved by not having the bed so close to a wall. Also, for local or British visitors, availability of international power plugs would be useful."
