Poor service and a rip off.Avoid.
Pros:

I wouldn't stay here ever again. Very erratic shuttle service to the hotel with a driver who couldn't care less about you and didn't try and hide it either. Cold perfunctory service at reception also. If you're looking for an Irish céad míle fáilte don't go to this hotel. The flight was late due to turbulence but then there was a further delay with the bus which showed up much later than it should have. We were all left standing in the rain and freezing cold waiting for him to show up. A number of people with small babies and children. A number of elderly Americans also. Got to the hotel at 11.40pm on a Friday night and the bar was shut. Then if you did want anything they were charging extortionate prices in the lobby area. Avoid unless you want to feel badly treated and ripped off.

Bien mais pas 4 étoiles
Pros:

La literie est confortable
la chambre était grande et nous avons eu la surprise d'avoir 3 lits donc nous étions content
Le petit déjeuner est varié et de qualité.
L'emplacement et la navette aéroport sont vraiment un plus , si vous avez une voiture et que vous ne voulez pas utiliser le parking de l'hôtel il y a quelques places dans la rue qui le longe.
Le coin détente pour attendre est vraiment sympa

Cons:

Les bornes sensées faciliter le check in/out et la récupération de la carte sont un bon concept mais cela n'a pas fonctionné à chaque fois que j'ai voulu utiliser.
Il n'y a aucune instruction dans la chambre concernant les services de l'hôtel/horaires du petit déjeuner...
Les toilettes n'étaient pas très propres à notre arrivée, pour un 4 étoiles c'est décevant c'est la base.
La télévision "connectée" ne fonctionne pas donc impossible de l'utiliser à part pour regarder quelques chaînes locales.

Will definitely stay here again when flying out of Dublin as you can leave your car too for a small fee and with a free
Pros:

Gorgeous. I was in the Tara suite.. just beautiful and relaxing. Lady in reception was lovely too.

Cons:

Just on the website it says the shuttle bus goes to both terminals but it doesn’t. Only stops at terminal 1. Not the end of the world but I had to race over to T2…

Really comfy bed and pillows.
Pros:

The facilities excellent. The staff excellent but someone could have mentioned the need to use the room key card to activate the lift! Waited a good while at the coffee counter, only one person working and she had gone off for lemons or something. Very busy lobby and counter. Bit of a wait to check in.

Cons:

The length of time waiting at the counter to check in.
