Great to explore Dublin.
Pros:

Great location in Dublin! The rooms were very clean and the staff were polite. The location is about 10-15 minutes on foot from the historic centre. We arrived by car via the Holyhead-Dublin ferry - parking was a bit tricky, the entrance is in another building next to the hotel, with its entrance just behind it, so I advise you to pinpoint it on your sat-nav instead of relying on spotting it on your own. The staff was very helpful in directing me on the phone!

Cons:

None.

Für mich das bislang beste Hotel in Dublin
Pros:

Ich war bereits mehrfach privat und beruflich in Dublin und habe dabei in unterschiedlichen Hotels übernachtet. Das The Spencer Hotel ist für mich mit Abstand das schönste und überzeugendste Hotel, das ich bisher in Dublin kennenlernen durfte.

Die Lage direkt am Fluss ist ausgezeichnet. Das gesamte Hotel ist modern, stilvoll und sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Auch die Ausstattung und Gestaltung der Zimmer haben mich vollkommen überzeugt. Sie sind komfortabel, gepflegt und bieten eine sehr angenehme Atmosphäre.

Das Frühstücksbuffet ist abwechslungsreich und qualitativ hochwertig. Besonders hervorheben möchte ich die ausgesprochen freundlichen und höflichen Mitarbeiterinnen am Empfang. Ein großes Kompliment und ein besonderer Dank gelten außerdem Daniel aus dem Frühstücksteam. Seine Zugewandtheit, Professionalität und außergewöhnliche Kundenorientierung sind mir besonders positiv in Erinnerung geblieben.

Ich habe mich während meines gesamten Aufenthalts sehr wohl und willkommen gefühlt. Bei meinen zukünftigen Reisen nach Dublin wird das The Spencer Hotel meine erste Wahl sein.
