    Zero storage space - not even space to put my cabin luggage, let alone unpack it.

    Good location, lovely room, friendly, enthusiastic staff, great bar, very cool decor.

    The hotel is very new and a few things didn't work quite as expected. I assume it's because they're still working out some kinks. The rooms have very fancy heated Toto bidet-toilets, which is great. However, the one in my room seemed to have a mind of its own. Any time I walked into the bathroom or even moved a few inches while in the bathroom, it would whir into action. Sometimes it even started up when I was nowhere near the bathroom. Maintenance was supposed to fix it, but they never showed up. Also, the HVAC didn't seem to be working either, but I didn't bother calling because no one responded about the toilet. I only stayed one night so it was no big deal.

    I really liked this hotel. It's brand new and everything seems well done. It's near Merrion Square so it's within walking distance of most things, but definitely off the main tourist track. The rooms are bright and comfortable. One of the best things about the Leinster, though, is the Jean Georges restaurant on the roof. The restaurant is beautiful, the food is great and the vibe is friendly and not stuffy at all. I would definitely stay here again! ((And I would have rated it Exceptional (instead of Wonderful) if a few minor issues had been worked out.))

    Room size inadequate. Nowhere to store two suitcases. Nowhere to empty contents of suitcases as drawers full of objects. Not enough flat surfaces. Not enough floor space to avoid having to shuffle sideways or one person climbing on the bed to allow the other person past. Gimmicky toilet beeps and whirrs all the time.

    Very friendly and helpful staff. Quality of the decor.

    Nothing terrible but… They charged my card for the first night before we arrived, and then took full payment for the stay on arrival. That’s unusual compared to pretty much every other hotel I’ve ever stayed at. The sauna area appeared still to be under construction at the time of our stay (January 2025). The standard room is a bit small, but OK for a weekend stay as long as you don’t have much stuff!

    Great central location. Everything is new. Design is stylish and modern.

    This was a birthday present but we were not informed in advance that there was no access to a residents bar or that the cocktail bar was not open. We had hoped to meet our family for champagne but had to take our celebrations to another hotel - this was disappointing

    The size of the room. It was 1.8 mtrs x 3 mtrs long. The worst room I ever stayed in . And I was charged €440 per night so I checked out immediately. I will never return to this hotel again. Totally rip off

    The rooms are not designed for practical use - no room for luggage, the switch to use the plug beside the bed is near the window which makes no sense, the shower never drained properly and despite raising it several times was never fixed. The spa never opened and there seems to be no plans to open it in the future. I raised several issues with staff during the course of my stay and none were resolved and nothing was done to try to make it right.

    The location is great - its right beside Merrion Square so is walking distance to the city center but far enough away to not have late night noise.

    Staff in the bar area did everything they could to encourage us to not seek to use the bar to get food at night. We had traveled all day and were very annoyed that a medium cost hotel seemed to think it ok to not provide an evening meal (even bar tapas) to guests.

    I got a ‘superior room’, the window was broken so we had to gather our things and leave. I booked with breakfast included, but now I have been charged an extra €40 as I do not have proof on my booking that says breakfast included. It shows you when you are booking, ‘breakfast available’ or ‘breakfast included’. Now, obviously I wouldn’t be writing this speel at 10:55 if I didn’t choose the breakfast included option! Just money grabbing at its worst, dirty snobs.
