Pros:

Staff are exceptional, great bar and restaurant. The location is perfect and lots of bars and restaurants just outside the hotel. Parking is e10.00 daily if you are staying in the Skylon. Rooms are spotless with tea and coffee etc. Ideal 4 star hotel close to the airport and city centre.

High class accommodation in a decent corner of the city
Pros:

Excellent accommodation. Large room, very comfortable, huge bed, large shower cubicle (no bath) and huge TV. A definite 4 star hotel, equivalent to Marriott or Hilton. Really good staff.

Cons:

Hotel was very busy when we visited, so parking was a problem. There is a car park, and an underground level, but there's only one way in and out, so became very congested and difficult to get out of. I was advised to park in the electric only bay and was worried by the intimidating signs threatening clamping for non-electric vehicles (though this did not happen!).

Highly recommended hotel for tourist and catch early flight @ Dublin Airport
Pros:

Excellent staff, good customer relations and empathy from all night staff. Close proximity to the Dublin Airport for my flight to London next day. EV Charger on hotel property. Wonderful 24hr security and clean and spacious room. Highly recommended.

Cons:

I can’t fault the property for one of the EV charger was bad but I still gat my car charged with a spare till morning. Even got a discount for my parking ticket 😇 for EV faults that wasn’t theirs.

This was the perfect location for us to stay the night before our return flight.
Pros:

Great location. We stayed the night before our flight back and it was walking distance to everything we needed. Great places to grab a bite to eat or coffee right across the street. Next door is a supermarket. Perfect to grab snacks, drinks, etc. The restaurant had a good dinner menu and typical Irish breakfast buffet style. Bus stops were a block away to go into Dublin or to the airport.

Cons:
