Pros:

Zentrale Lage zur Innenstadt. Seh nettes Personal, wir haben im Q-Park geparkt. Kurzer Weg zum Hotel. Trotz Hauptstraße waren die Zimmer sehr leise. Frühstück Buffet hat keine Wünsche offen gelassen. Hotel kann man nur weiterempfehlen

Pros:

L'emplacement de cet hôtel est idéal, vous pouvez tout faire à pied. Le personnel très agréable et le petit déjeuner vraiment top. Je recommande cet hôtel et je n'hésiterai pas à y retourner. Situé juste à coté de l'avenue principale idéal pour faire du shopping. Juste à côté de l'hôtel vous avez le Murray Bar et Restaurant, pub typique irlandais ou nous avons passé une super soirée avec concert, je recommande.

Großzügige Unterkunft mit Top-Service
Pros:

Tip top sauber, großzügige Räume und stets hilfsbereites Personal machen den Aufenthalt sehr angenehm.
Die Innenstadt ist in 10 min fußläufig zu erreichen, Pubs sind aber auch auf kürzere Distanz zu finden.

Cons:

Fehlende Park möglichkeiten und keine Entladezone machen An- und Abreise etwas aufwändiger, aber die Dubliner Taxifahrer bleiben entspannt, wenn man kurz am Taxistand um die Ecke hält.
Koffer einlagern ist ebenfalls möglich.

Guter entspannter Aufenthalt.
Pros:

Sehr freundliches und zuvorkommendes Personal. Gutes Frühstück. Beste Lage in der City. Beste Verkehrsanbindung an ÖPV. Gute rollstuhlgeeignete Dusche.

Cons:

Das rollstuhlgeeignetes Zimmer hatte ein viel zu hohes Bett. Vom Rollstuhl schlecht selbständig einzusteigen.
