We stayed in room 259 it was hard to get the shower to the correct temperature, it was either too hot or too cold. Otherwise we were happy.

Overall a great hotel , comfortable , modern and in close proximity to M50 , I will plan a return
Pros:

Comfortable spacious hotel , excellent facilities , good breakfeast and great TV viewing positions in all public areas

Cons:

Breakfeast was excellent but very limited to Cooked Irish Breakfeast, an egg or omellette options would be nice and better quality pancakes
Shower was the smallest I've seen in a hotel, terrible design ! Dinner was very enjoyable but portion sizes poor - €8 for approx 8 chips was poor value, as were the €11 desserts ( barely 2 mouthfuls ! )

Can't wait to go back
Pros:

Staff couldn't have done enough for us. We arrived with a little one who couldn't cope with the heat and they helped us by letting us change to a room with air conditioning. The Chef also came out personally to discuss the menu with us in regards to my babies allergies. He was willing to make us anything at all.

Cons:

Nothing. Everything was perfect

Lovely
Pros:

Food gorgeous both breakfast and also dinner in the Earth & Vine restaurant.

Cons:

Definite confusion over dinner booking - I could see that from staff conversing. I had reservation number but they didn't ask for it. Short wait - then led to a near empty restaurant. Forgot drinks menu with food menu. Slow service at the start but then we got a lovely friendly server and evening much improved :)

We had a lovely time and would definitely consider staying with you again
Pros:

Really lovely grounds. Nice facilities within the hotel and kept really clean

Cons:

Our room was so hot and did not cool down even overnight with fans on and windows open.
Restaurant prices quite high with no cheaper alternative for families.

Enjoyed the area and hotel for our week stay in Dublin
Pros:

Great location for us as we had a wedding at the Luttrellstown Castle to attend. Also, we played a round of golf on the CastleKnock Golf Course

Cons:

No AC and Dublin was exceptionally warm. The AC rooms they do have are much higher priced rooms but unfortunately there were none available
