    Lacking a car park is a problem. It's too expensive to park there.

    Speedy check in and check out. Will keep luggage after check out. Breakfast..

    The decor that was added to the building over the years was not in keeping with a historical building and gave the building a somewhat corporate look. The bar off the lobby was uninviting, too brightly lit, inelegant, badly designed. The soap and shampoo and conditioner was something you would have in a 2 star hotel. Unpleasant looking plastic containers with an unpleasant smell. The shower floor was very slippery even with the ugly rubber mat provided, which was too small and inadequate . Signs posted about the shower floor being slippery didn’t cover the fact that there was no proper safety rails in the shower.t The curtains were cheap looking and were not wide enough to adequately cover light from the beautiful tall windows which were in no way enhanced by them. The hallways were dimly lit and had floors better suited to a hospital. On either side of the bed there were adjustable lamps for reading. As I adjusted one and turned it on , I received an electric shock. enhanced by them

    Beautiful exterior architecture and in the lobby many historic features. Some vintage chandeliers in the lobby. Large windows with views of the street in the bar and the seating area of the lobby. Brass stair rails on the beautiful staircases on every floor. Very good breakfast with a good variety of dishes offered. Large comfortable bed. Heated towel bars in the bathroom . Staff members greet you as you come in to the lobby.

    Regulating the shower. It wasn't clear to me anyway. No bags to deposit ladies sanitary items.

    The room. Staff were very helpful and friendly.Food was good maybe a little overpriced but I'm not sure about that. It is Dublin the Capital city so maybe it's more expensive than Cork where I live.

    I can honestly say that I am struggling to find anything negative to say

    The staff were excellent, the room was clean, and the only negitave was that we had to ask for a portable radiator as it got pretty cold at night (we are an older couple and it was January) the radiator was provided within minutes of request. The breakfast was very good also plenty of choice. It was my husbands birthday and he was presented with a lovely wee cake, a really nice touch.

    A bit peeved at the extra charge on the drink after 11,also not enamored with the singing waitress but that could be a wise ploy to encourage guest to retire. Coffee at breakfast was awful.

    Korinna on reception was excellent, very welcoming, efficient and customer centered. Duty Manager also an asset. The waiter in Toddys was very efficient and working the floor so well dealing with everyone's needs with ease and skill. One piece of advise, it would only take a minute in the morning to explain the breakfast layout ,would make the experience more welcoming otherwise very good breakfast manager. If taking Coffee would advise getting it from the machine or take the tea. Scrambled eggs were the best ive had in any hotel. The fish in restaurant was so tasty. The rooms were spotless,the beds incredibly comfortable and great shower.

    The hotel is so beautiful, our room was so spacious and clean. The restaurant we used for breakfast to say it was second to none is an understatement.

    Finding our room the 1st time was a bit interesting as it was in a different wing but after that fine.

    Perfectly placed for discovering Dublin, good transport links, and plenty of eateries. Lots of shopping opportunities, if that's your thing. The staff were very helpful and friendly .
