Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Rooms and cleanliness could improve — While many guests are happy, the lower score in this category suggests some inconsistencies in room upkeep.
  • Check-in window is limited — Check-in is only available between 15:00 and 23:30, which may be tricky for late arrivals.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not accommodate pets, so travellers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
  • Price point is on the higher side — With rates from £287 per night, it’s a premium option in Dublin, though guests generally find the value acceptable.
