Rooms unacceptably small and cluttered with hotel related belongings and bar snacks
Cons:

Never seen such a small hotel room - no storage or room for clothes and what little storage there was was cluttered with mini bar type snacks and alcohol for purchase

Great design, but feels more like a cinema with some extra rooms, then a hotel with a cinema.
Pros:

Beautiful building, great design, really new and up to date.

Cons:

Arrived late, no room service options, only unhealthy snacks in the room, no gym, missing just some major essentials.

Cons:

Parking was 7 mins away from the hotel. Not mentioned anywhere until you call the hotel. Its fine if you have no luggage but if you do it can be troublesome. And i was they had the last spot available otherwise more trouble.

If you're looking for the best location
Pros:

The location is perfect! Multiple restaurants and cute shops, 5min walk to Luas (tram) and airport bus. The interior is pretty, well thought out. The movie theater downstairs is a nice touch. Staff were friendly and helpful. Great to have a fridge in the room, as well as quality steamer for clothes. Bed was very soft and comfortable. If you like a hip, club-y vibe, they have DJs playing in the lobby bar sometimes, as well as other music events. My room was on the second floor so I didn't really hear any music from downstairs.

Cons:

When I arrived the room was definitely not cleaned well. Floors were dirty, surfaces like fridge door handle and sink were not clean. As the bed is a built in feature with a mattress on this structure, there were someone else's Fastfood trash wedged between the mattress and the frame. Some things could use freshening up, like the upholstery around the bed and the mattress (quite worn out and dirty), pillows were very lumpy and sheets had seen better days. Shower head had no water pressure, but luckily there's also a rain shower. Also, why is there a light strip in the flower box outside of the window, shining right at the window? Depending on who your neighbour is, you can hear them clearly (word to word). Despite these things I'd still go back.

The best Dublin wedding venue!
Pros:

If you are getting married in Dublin, stop your search now. Layla's and The Devlin is simply the best wedding venue the city has to offer!

The food was absolutely incredible, the cocktails were something else entirely, and the whole atmosphere of the venue made for the most magical backdrop to our day. Every single guest left with a full belly and the biggest smile on their face, and the highest compliment we can give is that almost everyone has already said they can't wait to go back themselves for dinner. That says it all!

But what truly made Layla's stand out above everything else was the staff. We have never felt so looked after. Two people in particular deserve every bit of recognition going. Kaela was an absolute dream to work with throughout the entire planning process. She was there to answer every question, no matter how small, always picked up the phone and made us feel completely supported every step of the way. There was never a moment where we felt lost or stressed, and that is entirely down to her.

Then on the day itself, Ahmed, the restaurant manager, was simply outstanding. He went above and beyond to make sure our dinner reception was the most fun, relaxed, and joyful experience imaginable. He had the most incredible energy and made sure everything flowed perfectly, all while making us feel completely at ease and free to just enjoy every single moment.

Layla's didn't just host our wedding - they made it everything we ever dreamed of. We are so incredibly grateful to Kaela, Ahmed, and the entire team. If you are looking for a venue that goes truly above and beyond, this is it!

Enttäuschend
Pros:

Toll ausgestattete Minibar im Zimmer vorhanden sowie eine Deckendusche.

Cons:

Dachterasse ist nur für Gäste zugänglich, die dort auch speisen möchten. Lediglich ein Getränk an der Bar oder bloß die Aussicht genießen ist nicht erwünscht. Hierfür kann nur die Loggia im Untergeschoss genutzt werden.
