In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Top marks for location — Guests rate the setting 9/10, with the Luas stop right beside the hotel and pubs, restaurants, and shops within walking distance.
  • Clean, modern rooms — Reviewers repeatedly note the spotless condition and contemporary design, with several mentioning balconies or extra space.
  • Praised breakfast at €10 — Guests call the breakfast fresh, tasty, and good value, with freshly baked items a recurring highlight.
  • Helpful, accommodating staff — Multiple reviews single out the team for being friendly and going out of their way to help, including business requests and upgrades.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • No room service in the usual sense — The hotel asks guests to collect restaurant orders themselves rather than delivering to rooms – a point one reviewer found inconvenient.
  • Price and service rated 7/10 — While value is generally seen as good, this category scores below the hotel's overall 8.5, suggesting some guests find the balance less ideal.
  • No pets allowed — If you travel with a dog or cat, this hotel isn't an option – the policy is strictly no pets.

“The hotel was spotlessly clean, and our spacious triple room had a nice modern look. Staff were excellent, making sure we had everything, and breakfast at just €10 was a very good deal – fresh, tasty choices that set us up for the day.”

8.5Verified guest

“The rooms are immaculate, incredible.”

8.5Verified guest

“Location was great – only 5 minutes' walk from the Luas. Bars and restaurants are right next door. Rooms were soundproof and spotless, with tea-making facilities and extra space.”

8.5Verified guest

“My room was spotless, with a modern bathroom, a new iron, and a balcony view – it suited me perfectly.”

8.5Verified guest

“I enjoyed my two nights here. Being right next to the Luas was marvellous, and the area was relatively quiet, close to the river, shops, pubs, a restaurant, and a large convenience store – a lovely base.”

8.5Verified guest

“The staff are what make this hotel good – nothing was too much trouble. My suite was clean, comfortable, and had everything I needed. The only downside was the lack of room service; you have to collect orders from the restaurant yourself, which isn't the most convenient. Overall, a very pleasant stay.”
