    On this visit no cocktails being made, but I know the place was exceptionally busy.

    The location is fantastic, that's why we keep coming back. The seaview rooms are amazing. Beds so comfy. Staff really nice and helpful. Food excellent.

    That we couldn't stay longer 😞 There isn't anything we didn't like at all

    The location is beautiful. Wish I could've enjoyed the view from the room more. Girl on reception was really friendly and very helpful. Girl serving breakfast was the same. Very laid back vibe which is great.

    Not easily accessible if you don't have a car. View from our room was awful and disgusting.

    Amazing breakfast, fact that it's by the seaside. Beautiful interior.

    Rooms need some maintenance and to go to rooms you need to pass from the restaurant with the luggage even in busy hours. Decore is a bit old.

    Nice location especially in summer

    Menu was ok but could do with improvement. I thought it was quite expensive for what I got and didn't think my meal was great. Maybe I just got unlucky with my choice.

    as a solo traveller I was very happy to be upgraded to a lovely room when I arrived last week! I used to live in this area and now live in Kerry, so I come back now and again to visit friends. I will definitely used the Shoreline hotel again as its convenient, friendly and right beside the sea for daily swims!

    Bathroom in the room hadn’t been renovated like the rest of the room so was very dated old shower that soaked the place even with curtain pulled. We also go breakfast included and the menu was quite poor 3/4 options and not many vegetarian options or not great options on kids menu we where disappointed probably wouldn’t book breakfast if we stay again definitely not worth it.

    The room was really nice we had a view of the sea

    Decor could do with some updating, carpet in the lift a bit weird!! No aircon in room. Only 12 channels on the TV, 1 of which didn't work!!

    The views were lovely out over the Irish sea. Room very comfortable. Breakfast very nice and freshly cooked.

    Location was a fair way from the City so there was no were else to go locally, But a wonderful Location, with stunning views, My Bedroom Table was too small to sit at, As I could not get my legs under the table to do my Laptop work following days out on the road visiting clients, Not the end of the world, I guess...but sometimes its the little things, a bit off a funky smell from the bathroom so kept the door shut, tap water tasted yuk, so bring bottled water or use the bottled water provided.

    Fantastic Beachside Location, Lovely Food in the Restaurant with a good choice of Beers Friendly staff, Fantastic Irish Fry Breakfast last you all day Huge.

    It's alittle removed from the town if you don't have access to a car. Quite a walk.

    The room opened up onto a grass area above the beach. Very quiet location and could easily have stayed another night.

    There were switches on the walls that we couldn't figure out they were for, and it seemed like the heat was turned off, but luckily it was a mild night.

    Great location. Right on the beach and adjacent to a scenic walking path, easy and quick drive to rental car return at the Dublin airport. Comfortable and quiet room. Good breakfast choices.

    Hard to find, Sat nav took us totally wrong at one stage The hotel was not in the same direction as the town - town left and hotel right and we missed the sign the first time. Probably a bit quiet for some people as it's out on its own. My eveningmeal choice of tuna nicoise was on the small side with anchovies in the dressing rather than part of the salad. Cooked breakfast good however a bit too crunchy - probably under the heat lamp for a while. The choice of cereal a bit limited with no porridge or muesli. Overall would recommend - we had fantastic weather so it might be a bit limited if it was a more normal rainy and windy couple of days

    Location on the shore and beside the beach. Upgrade to a balcony room which was very spacious and had a wonderful view from the balcony Staff very helpful and friendly. Evening meal generally good - fish and chips excellent. Breakfast good especially the omelet. Late checkout appreciated - we left earlier but good not to feel under pressure. Will go back again..

    The bar / restaurant and lobby have really bright lighting - would be nicer if the lighting was softer in the evenings. Not a complaint really, just an observation.

    Smooth check in, helpful staff, all staff were very friendly. Breakfast was great.
