Location great
Pros:

The location is brilliant, right in the middle of temple bar and straight across the bridge to cafes and shopping area. Easy to reach on public transport. We walked from Tara street station. Good value for money as breakfast was included. Dont expect the ritz but its comfortable if somewhat noisy.

Pros:

The room was clean and comfortable so was the bathroom and wea also had a balcony with great canal view! Although you could hear live music on the street with close windows it was quiet enough! Perfect location right in the city center so you can go anywhere on foot and book tours directly from the reception and all guys there was so helpful! Live music every day if you want to feel the heartbeat of Dublin, Breakfast and Irish dishes was delicious and the stuff was so warm and friendly made us feel so comfortable!
Thank you all so much! 🌹

Cons:

They have no closets in Dublin in general..

Pros:

Die Lage war optimal!

Cons:

Die Lautstärke der Bands im Erdgeschoss bzw. von dem DJ gegenüber hat doch dem einen oder anderem meiner Kollegen vom einschlafen gehindert.

Pros:

Ganz besonders freundliches Personal, besonders an der Rezeption, super hilfsbereit, das ist immer angenehm, wenn der Empfang so positiv ist - und auch im Restaurant, alle gaben sich immer Mühe.
Große Frühstücksauswahl auf Bestellung war im Preis eingeschlossen - aber es gab nur ziemlich dünnen Kaffee aus einem Spender oder schwarzen Tee, ebenfalls aus einem Spender, auch auf Nachfrage keine anderen Teesorten (grünen zum Beispiel)

Cons:

Keine Getränkeauswahl beim Frühstück
Das Hotel hat ein riesiges Pub und ist eine beliebte Party-Location, das muss man wissen, jede Nacht gibt es lange sehr laute Musik und super Stimmung - entsprechend trotz Schallschutzfenstern eher wenig Schlaf! Die Lage ist für Party-People natürlich perfekt, direkt mittendrin in Temple Bar.
