This hotel has a massive bed with great pillows, but there is no space to unpack clothes in the bathroom. The service was impeccable overall, despite some mistakes made by young and inexperienced staff members on the night shift. The location is superb, right behind Stephens Green Shopping Centre, and offers easy access to nearby attractions. The dining options are limited but include fresh meats. The facilities are top-notch, providing a comfortable stay.

The hotel offers a wonderful view of part of Dublin and impressive amenities. The bed is very comfortable, but it's surrounded by three walls, which may feel a bit confining. Service is impeccable, with every small request catered to promptly, especially with Andy on the night shift at 4 am on Monday. The location is right in the heart of Dublin, making it easy to explore the city's hotspots. Dining is not included but available at a good rate, and vegetarian dishes are offered.

I truly enjoyed my stay at this hotel! The location is fantastic, just behind Stephens Green Shopping Centre, and it's in the heart of the city with easy access to major attractions and bus lines. The service was exceptional, with friendly staff like Andy and Eric who made my stay memorable. The room had nice toiletries from l'Occitane en Provence, but the bed was a bit hard for my liking. The dining options were limited and not included, which was a downside, but the overall value for money was great.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The massive bed and great pillows were a big plus, along with the excellent shower. However, the placement of the bed against three walls made the room feel a bit cramped. The full disabled facilities were beneficial for those in need, but some may find the room layout slightly unconventional.

The hotel is centrally located just behind Stephens Green Shopping Centre, offering great accessibility to restaurants, shops, and theatres. The rooms come with amazing amenities and full disabled facilities, but there's limited space to unpack clothes. The service, highlighted by Andy's excellent attention, was top-notch overall, although some young and inexperienced staff made mistakes without apparent supervision. Dining is not included in the rate despite the relatively high nightly rates. The prime location makes up for this downside, placing guests right in the heart of Dublin's vibrant center.

Access from both sides of the bed was very convenient, and having a small kettle in the room was a nice touch. The service was top-notch, especially from Andy who provided excellent service throughout our stay. I really couldn't fault the service at all, from the cleaning service to being free to make any request. The location was just behind Stephens Green Shopping center, making it super convenient to explore the city center. The hotel is in a prime area close to everything you need. The dining options were included in the rate, and I enjoyed Danish pastries for breakfast. Overall, a fantastic experience!
