Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and quiet, but the layout was a bit odd, making it challenging to move around. The service was exceptional, from the moment we arrived to our departure. The location was superb, right in the heart of Dublin. The dining was tasty and beautifully presented, though slightly slow. Overall, a good stay with a few drawbacks.
My stay at the hotel was delightful. The room, though a bit on the smaller side, was beautifully furnished and ideal for our short stay. The location couldn't have been more convenient, allowing us to explore Dublin easily. The dining experience at The Saddle Room was a true treat with delicious food.
My stay at the hotel was exceptional. The rooms were spotless and comfy, and my personal favorite was the excellent bedding. They catered for our every need, and everything was clean and comfortable. The service was top-notch, with the staff arranging an upgraded room as we were celebrating our engagement. The location was outstanding, with friendly staff and a perfect setup to explore the City Center. The dining experience had its highlights but could have been improved. The amenities and facilities were excellent overall.
The hotel had beautifully furnished and decorated rooms, albeit on the smaller side. The service was outstanding, with staff being very tuned in to their customers. The location was excellent, offering easy access to everything in the center of Dublin. However, the dining experience had upsell options and slow service issues.
Staying at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was perfect, right beside Grafton Street and St Stephens green for easy access to shopping and dining options. However, the room faced an office building and lacked breakfast variety. The service was outstanding with friendly staff, but some noise disturbances were noticeable. The dining experience, while adequate, had additional charges for certain items. In terms of facilities, there were mixed feelings about the overall experience.
The hotel is ideally located in the heart of everything, just a short walk to Grafton Street. The rooms were a bit small but cozy, suitable for one person, though it might feel cramped for two. The service was efficient overall, but some staff members seemed preoccupied. Dining was pleasant, except for the hash browns that were not up to par. The location offers a fantastic experience overlooking St Stephens Green. Overall, a good stay with minor areas for improvement.
The hotel room I stayed in was very comfortable, clean, and well-serviced daily with fresh towels. Although the lack of tea/coffee making facilities in the room was a downside, the bottle in the shower was a nice touch. Unfortunately, my room had no view. The staff at the horseshoe bar were professional, engaging, and extremely nice and helpful. The location couldn't have been more convenient, right in the heart of downtown with easy access to parks, shopping, and restaurants. However, it was disappointing that everything was charged for separately.
