Guter Stopp ausserhal Dublin, kurze nfahrt wie Airoport Dublin
Pros:

Wir hatten das Zimmer 109. Der Ausblick auf das Meer, Gartenterrasse war super. Das Zimmer ist klein, jedoch erfüllt es alles was man für eine Nacht benötigt. Dusche, WC alle ok. Das Restataurant bietet auch die Möglichkeit zum Essen. Wir haben ein 3-Gang Abend-Menue gewählt. Dies war sehr lecker:-) Das Frühstücksbufffet war auch sehr gut inkl. Menue a la carte:-).

Cons:

Es ist relativ ringhörig. Gäste nahmen wenig bis keine Rücksicht (zwischen 0030 - 0200 Uhr AM) was Lärm anbelangt.

Our stay was a complete disappointment.
Pros:

The location.

Cons:

My family and I were extremely disappointed in the Shoreline Hotel! The location is great but the hotel is a dive!
The rooms were small and dirty especially the bathrooms. The carpets in the hotel hallways, stairwells and lobby were worn down and covered in sand. In addition, the sofas in the bar should be replaced, if you sit in the wrong spot you’ll fall through to the floor! Although there were a few friendly faces, for the most part the staff seemed unhappy and unmotivated to help. Hence, in my humble opinion, the Shoreline Hotel needs a complete make over and currently, its only redeeming feature is the beautiful Irish Sea!
