Categories

Cleanliness
7.8
Mostly described as clean in several reviews and praised housekeeping, but at least one guest reported mould/dirt buildup in the shower corners which lowers this score.
Service
9.2
Multiple positive mentions of friendly and helpful staff (Lucas, Mahfuz Alam and others) and attentive reception; one isolated concern about parking communication but overall service is a strong point.
Location
9.5
Consistently praised — immediate tram/Luas access, excellent for 3Arena/Aviva and many notes of convenient restaurants/transport nearby.
Room Quality
8.8
Rooms frequently described as spacious, comfortable beds, balconies and modern styling; some comments about cold/clinical decor, worn balconies or heavy duvets reduce a perfect score.
Amenities
8.2
Positive notes on in-room water/fridge, good tram access and buffet breakfast availability; negatives around parking arrangements/fees and occasional issues with escalators.
Value for Money
6.8
Several guests explicitly call the hotel expensive or poor price/value (price excessive, not worth for worn balcony/room in some cases), bringing this score down.
Food and Beverage
8
Breakfast and buffet are praised in many reviews, but some guests report limited menu options, wrong drinks served, and an overcooked steak — overall mixed to slightly positive.
Overall Experience
9.7
Overall strong positive sentiment: many guests report 'great stay', 'exceptional', and recommend for events; main detractors are parking fees and a few service/cleanliness issues.

Perfect for business travelers.
Pros:

Away from from the city centre noise. The hotel is in a mall with large supermarkets and few restaurants and a pharmacy

Cons:

Staying in for several nights the level of cleaning was dripping.
