Excellent Stay Near Dublin Airport!

helpful staffgreat servicelate checkoutmissing phone number

The front desk staff was helpful. Jessica was great sorting parking for two weeks and a late checkout. My checkout was extended to 1 PM, which helped as I finished work at noon. I chilled in the lounge and got great service from another staff member. I definitely recommend this hotel because of the great service and value!

The hotel information mentioned a courtesy bus but lacked a contact phone number. The starting location was hard to find, so I walked 15 minutes. I got drenched as it rained, and the receptionist said I could have called. There were no hooks in the room for my wet jacket.

Service

The receptionists were helpful and attentive. They ensured any queries I had were answered quickly. The staff provided extra water bottles and tea bags for my room, and this was VERY appreciated.

Dining

Breakfast included a good variety of fresh food and juices. The lunch buffet had plenty of options. Evening meals in the restaurant were tasty. The Burrata Salad with grilled chicken and sourdough bread was AMAZING!!!
