The hotel is ideally located within walking distance of the 3 Arena and shopping areas.

The hotel provided a nice room with 2 queen beds, a good toilet, comfy beds, a big TV, and good internet. Its location is convenient for reaching the shopping area and walking to O'Connell Street in 10-15 minutes, depending on where you are. However, we were given a disabled accessible room without needing it or being informed, which I found unnecessary given the price paid for the room.

Wow, what a fantastic stay! The hotel's location is unbeatable, within walking distance to main tourist spots, ideal for concerts and shopping, and just a short stroll away from Dublin's vibrant areas. The rooms were cozy, but our 'family room' felt a bit cramped for four. The service was fantastic, with a personal touch like a handwritten welcome note and a lovely view of the river from our room. Dining was delicious but slightly pricey, and the facilities were top-notch.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel despite a few minor issues. The rooms were clean and comfortable, although a bit warm initially, but I can't fault them for the slight delay in readiness. Surprisingly, the room remained quiet even though it overlooked the street, which was a nice surprise.

The location was convenient for exploring Dublin on foot, even if the noise was a drawback. The dining options were overall good, with a wide selection, but I felt it was slightly overpriced.
