This is a very elegant yet friendly, relaxed and comfortable hotel. It is in an exceptional position in terms of ease of access on foot to the centre of Dublin, being close to the National Gallery, Trinity College and Dublin Castle. It looks towards public parks both back and front, and certainly the room we had was wonderfullly quiet at night. The room was also very well appointed. Indeed the decor throughout the hotel is maintained to a high standard. Breakfasts offer a good choice with high quality ingredients whatever the selection made. As befits the hotel, all members of staff are polite, attentive and efficient. The manager was also much in evidence, keeping an eye on the smooth running of the establishment - always a good sign.

An absolutely excellent hotel. We hugely enjoyed our stay and would find it hard to think of any way in which it could be improved. We would certainly return to it on a future trip.

It was a great Hotel for our group. The garden (order a cappucino), the lobby, service and atmosphere, breakfast etc. The closeness to Stephen's Green and Grafton Street is a huge plus. We didn't have to use any taxis at all. Friendly and helpful staff, clean rooms.

What always bugs us a little about hotels in Dublin. Very little space for clothes. But it's the same in most hotels so you need to lower your expectations if you're a first time visitor to Dublin. So not really a minus, just the value not keeping up with the price there.

Rooms were well furnished and equipped with an excellent shower. Breakfast was expensive but truly excellent, we had an amazing experience. Staff went out of their way to help us and the quality of the hotel really is high. Location is perfect for central Dublin and St Stephens Green. The hotel is right in the middle of Dublin but somehow manages to be very quiet overnight despite this.

Parking is expensive here and though you get a discount, it's still very high for overnight in Dublin. Price of the hotel is high but to be honest you get what you pay for here as the experience really is excellent.

Our stay was excellent, everything was clean, staff were great and very helpfull. And best part were two bathrooms in the Family room.

Great location and excellent breakfast. Staff was amazing and the room was beautiful. Grounds out back are pretty also. Love view of the Green.

Great quiet location near shopping, local pubs, and restaurants, but felt less touristy and loud at night. At 10 am, the staff puts out extra "treats" like croissants and pain aux raisins. This is not a guarantee as it's the leftovers from breakfast, but more days than not, we got one. In the evening, there are a couple of big scones and small mince pies; sometimes, these go quickly, but they are delicious! And cute with little stars on them. Beautiful garden with hanging chandeliers that lit up in the back. It would be wonderful in summer. Food is delicious. Sitting room in the hotel where you can buy wine, alcohol, ginger ale. Infused water (citrus & one other flavor) and hot coffee 24 hours!! The staff was wonderful and available all night. Super safe area. We stayed in a triple for 10 days with our adult daughter, and it was great!

Had to buy conditioner, not a lot of "extras" in the room, but for what we paid, I was happy. --Also, we took the stairs, which wasn't an issue, but if you need a lift or accommodation, check on that as it's a beautiful old hotel (that didn't feel or smell old!)

1. the location was superb if you were interested in irish history, esp the easter rising of 1916, as there was revolutionary action right out the front door on st stephens green! (and it was well and thoroughly explained as you explored the park) 2. i came to dublin looking to see as many harry clarke windows as i could cram in, and they had a magnificent one of their own right there in our hotel! unbelievable! as good as they come, rates with those in any of the museum collections in town. 3. also had a wonderful collection of other art, interesting photos, and a some cool old maps... 4. the breakfasts were incredible, i was able to get by with that and one other meal per day, which really saves time if you're trying to see as much as possible... 5. transport connections to the trains north or south, to the trams, and to the bus system were very convenient. 6. they had a beautiful garden out back, if i hadn't been running around so much i would have enjoyed spending more time just relaxing out there...next time! 7. finally, and very important, the staff were delightful and very helpful...information on getting around was spot on, and i had many interesting conversations with front desk folk and the servers at breakfast...i come from a lily-white conservative town and it was fun to be among an international cast of characters with stories to tell...thank you all, if you read this...

geez, i can't think of anything...a complimentary shot of whiskey at night? or a guinness?

It was beautiful and sandwiched between two amazing parks. Center of the City with great walkable amenities.

Lovely characterful hotel, fabulous location, friendly staff at reception, room lovely and clean and really well appointed - everything you could need.

Staff service at breakfast could have been a better but was fine. However menu options were limited if you don't want meat that isn't free-range/organic and if you also can't eat eggs. The survey also asked if we visited Poolbeg beach and the answer is an emphatic "NO" because while this was stunning visually and so important for wildlife - it is completely spoiled by the incinerator in a Natura 2000 site and such a wonderful landscape.

We had a Superior Double Room with View of the Green (Street side) It was a lovely room including a King Bed and Sitting area, with non working fireplace, period furnishings, beautiful moldings and chandeliers with made us feel we were stepping back in time in Ireland! The location was very convenient to restaurants, museums, shopping and the Temple Bar area. The included breakfast was very good and served in an elegant setting.

It was a little warmer than usual for Ireland when we visited and the room had no air conditioning, but we opened the windows and were ok. Just an FYI, there is no lift, but the staff was great about bringing our bags up to our room.
