    Initially, we had trouble regulating the temperature in our room, which was just a little too warm. Immediately, the hotel staff sent up a nice floor fan and showed us how to turn off the heat. So, A+ for staff helping us quickly resolve the issue.

    Louise, at the main desk, was SUPER! It was a little tricky for us to find our way to the private parking lot behind the hotel, so she literally talked us through it on the phone! She was also so upbeat and enjoyable to talk with during our stay! The included breakfast was outstanding! What a great introduction to Irish cuisine!! The room was small, but not cramped, and very clean. The hotel is on the "Medieval Mile" and the perfect location to see castles, cathedrals, and the river. Dining and shopping were all close by and exceptional. Be sure to check out the Smithwick's Experience and learn the history of Ireland's oldest beer while learning how to pour the perfect pint! Also, don't miss Duggans Menswear, a 5th generation purveyor of fine men's furnishings. Lunch at the Marble Bar was delicious, too!

    The outlook from the bedroom window was awful. The room was too dark.

    Everyone was so friendly. It was a joy to stay at your hotel. The restaurant meal was superb and the waiter was excellent. The breakfast staff and bar staff were great. Thank you to all your staff.

    The occasional noise from the heating pipes as they heated up and cooled down….a slight annoyance but didn’t take anything away from a brilliant hotel stay.

    Dinner was superb…dinner service was exceptional. Breakfast service was equally as good….served in trendy bar/cafe area on 1st morning and then restaurant on 2nd. Great choice on offer and ‘the Canadian ‘ as she called herself was so attentive and super helpful. I can’t recall a stay I’ve had where all of the staff we interacted with were so so welcoming and friendly.
