I had such a pleasant stay at the hotel! The rooms were picturesque and the staff was incredibly genial. The breakfast menu was impressive with a diverse selection of delicious offerings, making it a standout feature. The only downside was the pressure the service staff seemed to be under at times.

My partner and I had high hopes for a special occasion, but the hotel fell short in some areas. The room was spacious, spotless, and quiet, but the balcony overlooking the water was missing, and the sleeping sofa was uncomfortable. The service was fantastic overall, despite some issues with being ignored at the bar. The location was great for a bit of calm while still having easy access to the city center. Despite some drawbacks, it's still a nice hotel overall.

The hotel had perfect and always spotless rooms, but was way overpriced for what we got. The double bed was very small with thick wood paneling, feeling claustrophobic. The service was helpful offering a refund but lacked early check-in communication. The location was great, very close to the red line Luas and main attractions but a bit out of the way from everything. The dining experience was dissappointing with some cold cooked food, yet self-service.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were somewhat disappointing, having to sit on the floor late at night to get basic amenities like water and coffee, and dealing with noisy kids. On the bright side, the service was exceptional, especially thanks to the friendly gym instructor named Jacob. The location was convenient, although it seemed to be changing for the worse. The dining options were a big letdown, with poor-quality mass-produced food, despite ample choices. Facilities were decent but could use some improvement.
