Fabulous Stay!
Pros:

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at the Grafton Hotel! You absolutely can not beat the location. It is right in the center of town and an easy walk wherever you wanted to go. Our room was spotlessly clean, had very comfy beds and a fantastic balcony. And even though we were in a very bustling area, once we were in our room we never heard one peep from anything. I will also mention, we happened to be staying during a heat wave and the AC worked like a champ! We will definitely stay here again!

Cons:

The room, though amazing, was a wee bit small. Not a lot of space for luggage. But all of the other positives, out weighed this one issue for us.

Dublin is fun
Pros:

Location and Staff

Cons:

You pay for the location but there are other hotels very near by that also have great staff and comfort for less. I think The Grafton should lower the price a little bit to justify. Despite the $ all was good!
