Didnt have long enough (read my forst answer )
Pros:

Stayed on the 7th floor, room 220, and what a fabulous view of the bay! 🌊✨

And as for the trains that passed by at night… it was like something out of an anime movie! 🚆❤️ It was honestly so, so special.

I chose this hotel because it was only about a 10-minute walk from SVPH, as we had travelled from Cavan for the hospital and stayed for two nights. But coming back each evening to that beautiful view of the bay, with the trains tipping up and down, was just magical.

I actually left the curtains open and fell asleep watching the trains go by as it grew dark. Romantic, if you like that sort of thing! 😍

Breakfast was beautiful, with plenty of everything. The interior décor is just gorgeous, and honestly, I could not fault the place.

We got a great deal on Booking.com, but I’ve noticed you have to be quick when you see a good price!

Underground parking was €13, but hey, your car is safe and secure. 🚗

Would I go back? Absolutely! ❤️

Definitely recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Cons:

The view from 7th floor
