Anantara the Marker

Dublin City Center Dublin|0.54km from Grand Canal Dock
Amazing service at first arrival the doors were opened and I was greeted with very friendly staff who treated me with the utmost respect. The food was delicious as far as fine dining goes. The steak order was mixed up however we were given a new steak and complimentary drinks which was a nice gesture for a small mistake. We had massages and they were the best massages I have ever had in my life. We were given a tour of all the facilities and I really enjoyed my experience overall.
Dylan Dublin

Dylan Dublin

Dublin|0.7km from Grand Canal Dock
Our stay at the Dylan was more than we could have imagined, and an experience we’ll remember forever. The rooms here are perfection — beautifully designed with such attention to detail it had us wowed at every new discovery. And the staff? Perfection again! Gracious and professional, exceedingly accommodating, and genuinely happy to help and make sure we were happy with our stay, our meals, our experience. We especially loved Patrick, the food/beverage manager, and the stunningly beautiful hidden gem called the Ruby Room. Patrick was like a long lost friend, genuinely happy to see us and joyfully share his encyclopedic knowledge of whiskeys, wine and countless other things, including great coastal towns to visit! The meals were fantastic, from my fiancé’s “best fish and chips I’ve ever had in my life” to the (again perfect) filet and beef cheeks, to the boeuf bourguignon (yay for chef Paul Quinn and executive chef Mark Bodie!) — all delivered with exceptional service. We were very well taken care of here. The Dylan is a rare find, and a very hard place to leave. But we’ll be back soon…that’s for sure!

The Merrion Hotel

Dublin City Center Dublin|1km from Grand Canal Dock
The Merrion is a Hallmark of service and sheer quality. We arrived to be greeted by a friendly concierge and the news that our room had been upgraded to a junior suite. Lunch in the Cellar bar was an absolute joy and friendly, well clued in staff made the experience more special. The room was fabulous, with every comfort you could imagine. The bed was so comfortable, as were the couches.I cannot speak too highly about the service at this wonderful hotel.

The College Green Hotel Dublin, Autograph Collection

Dublin City Center Dublin|1.54km from Grand Canal Dock
This Westin hotel in Dublin is located on the south bank of the River Liffey, next to the famous Trinity University. It is only 5-7 minutes away from two bustling commercial streets. The location is very good. There are trams and Double-decker bus, the transportation is very convenient. The interior of the hotel is old and refined. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. The authentic and delicious Irish breakfast is plentiful and suitable for kids, it is definitely worth choosing.

The Trinity City Hotel
4.4/5125 Reviews

The Trinity City Hotel

Dublin City Center Dublin|1.24km from Grand Canal Dock
Trinity City Hotel is excellently located in the heart of Dublin, so for that I give it 5 stars. It has a fancy, almost glitzy lobby, and the staff are nice. But there was a problem that was difficult to overcome. The duvet (the bed cover) was oversized and bulky and made it too hot to sleep. And the pillows were fat as pigs. I tried (had to call front desk four different times within a six hour period) to get a lightweight cover of some sort and a flatter pillow, without any success. I tried to cool down the room by opening the window but it was ”fixed” so that I could only open it about three inches (to prevent people jumping out, I suppose). In the end I just stripped off the duvet cover (essentially the thickness of two bedsheets) and used that to cover me. For such a nice hotel, you'd think they'd be able to accommodate people who don't want to roast in the duvet or sleep at a 45 degree angle with the fat pillows. I hope someone in the hotel management sees this and they buy some lightweight blankets and some normal sized pillows.

InterContinental Dublin, an IHG Hotel

Dublin|1.65km from Grand Canal Dock
The food was fantastic but everything is about 6 times the price. The service was great also but in comparison to other 5 star hotels it could of done with some work for example the it was my first time in the spa area and I didn't really get very good directions as to where everything was such as in the Marker hotel I was greeted, given a tour and treated as a king which is what you should expect from first class service.

The Morrison Dublin, Curio Collection by Hilton

Dublin City Center Dublin|2km from Grand Canal Dock
Stayed there when passing through Dublin one night. Hotel is really nice -location superb along the river Liffey -walking distance to most tourist spots. Staff on check in and out excellent -could not have ben friendlier, Hotel decor really cool. Room absolutely lovely -plus very quiet-decor superb, great tv channels, great lighting etc. Only issues were with Wifi ( hard to connect -then in the morning no wifi) -Aircon very noisy -its Ireland so not necessary anyhow-switched off and opened window. I did not eat in the Hotel as had travelled from Asia and on a different time zone food wise--but food menu looked superb and reasonably priced. I will stay there again

Roxford Lodge Hotel
4.5/5102 Reviews

Roxford Lodge Hotel

Dublin|0.48km from Grand Canal Dock
We stayed at the Roxford Lodge for 3 nights in September 2022. We arrived wearily after an overnight flight, at 10:00 am. While check-in is clearly stated to begin at 3 pm, the front desk provided us with complimentary tea and croissants in the front room while they readied a room of a guest who had checked out early. Not expected at all, but so appreciated. When it turned out later that our particular room was affected by some unexpected noise, the hotel staff again graciously accommodated our request for a room change the following day, and upgraded the room type as well. While the rooms could benefit from a little updating, the overall hospitality is reason enough to book a stay here. It appears that the lodge is owned by a woman and has an all-female staff, which was nice to see. The location is excellent. It is situated in a lovely neighborhood that is within a 20-minute walk to Trinity College and City Center. In addition, we found some great places to eat breakfast and dinner within a 5-7 minute walk. Thank you for a lovely stay!

This is the first time weve used this hotel as we were going to see Bat out of hell at the thestre just around the corner. What a fantastic hotel the rooms,staff,food and drinks were top notch and at reasonable prices. The only criticism i could make was the sausage served at breakfast was not Irish and seemed to be a cheap catering type and as a food wholesaler i know my bangers.
Clayton Hotel Cardiff Lane

Clayton Hotel Cardiff Lane

Dublin City Center Dublin|0.65km from Grand Canal Dock
Myself and my Wife were going to a show in the Bord Gais theatre. A long overdue break from the kids! My parents had booked a room in the Clayton for us. As a surprise for my wife I booked a room upgrade online. Only 30 euro to go to a King Size bed with further amenities in the room. While we had checked in online we did not get to our room until approx. midnight. The show and then drinks meant we stayed out. On arrival in the room I immediately noticed it was just a normal room. I rang reception, was told nothing could be done now and that I would be refunded in the morning. No apology was offered. Simply nothing we can do now, get a refund tomorrow. Check out the next morning and I had to bring it up, no note was left on the account. Again the staff were completely dismissive!! I said I was very disappointed, he just said well nothing I can do now your stay is over. I feel like the basic premise of saying sorry must be outlawed in this hotel!! He took my name and number and said accounts would call me Monday to correct it but he could not complete the refund. Note the money had left my account at this point. Monday came and went and no call. I just now phoned the hotel and have been told it will take 2 weeks to refund me and you guessed it, once again no apology!!!! The basics of customer service completely lacking. They took my money immediately, did not provide what I paid for and now will take 2 weeks to give it back!! I will never again use this hotel. I would urge others to look at the Marker or other hotels near by who will actually give you what you pay for and possibly apologise when they make a mistake! I can live with mistakes, they happen. I will not put up with such poor customer service and dismissive attitude of staff.
Butlers Townhouse

Butlers Townhouse

Dublin|0.73km from Grand Canal Dock
We arrived on time and there were only 3 car parking spaces outside, one of which was taken up by a service vehicle which had been there for five days and management hadn't bothered trying to move it. There are no staff on site and we were promised a code by email to get into the hotel but it never arrived. Eventually we got one by phoning a mobile number. The website told us we could get in to our room at 2pm but the cleaner didn't finish cleaning it until 3.30pm. The room was shabby and dusty and three storeys up with no lift and the beds were uncomfortable. The cost of a twin room with no breakfast was a ridiculously expensive 350 euros. The only facilities downstairs were a fridge and a microwave. At 9.45am, the cleaner rapped our bedroom door and asked us to leave. Check-out time was 10am. The so-called free Wifi didn't work. We met four other couples who were equally disgusted and frustrated. Avoid this hotel which is more like a badly run hostel.

Dublin City Center
I have stayed at 4 or 5 hotels in my various trips to Ireland. I even stayed at a 5 star resort the last time I traveled here and I will say hands down the room at the Alex was by far the nicest room I have stayed in. It's not directly in the town center but it's just a 10 min walk away and one I didn't mind based on the quality of the room. My only wish was that it had a pool. There is a work out facility across the street that I never checked out so one might have been there. If I ever go back to Dublin I would definitely stay here again. They have a couple of restaurants near by both places were excellent one served the best fish in chips that I have ever had the other had a great Guinness beef pie.

Parking is complimentary and on a first come first served basis. The lobby has a simple desk in the centre, with complimentary coffee, water and Pastries nearby. Staff professional and friendly with payment taken on arrival. We stayed in the loft room, which has an upstairs section to fit 3 persons. There are snack and drinks available in room (pay for on checkout) and the bathroom is bright and clean. The beds are comfortable and carpet spot-less. The room overlooks the main street, which on a match day be noisy, but not something that is loudly apparent when the window is closed. A beautiful hotel and very comfortable in a well kept area.

Dublin City Center
This hotel was perfect for a 2 night stay in Dublin. Very clean and quiet, but so close to the centre. Used the gym both mornings, which was used by several people and clean with towels, water, and a good choice of equipment. Good supply of toiletries, coffee and tea in the room, as well as several bottles water, which is always so welcome! Room small, but not tiny. Staff was fantastic- especially Sabrina who could not have done enough! She offered to organise any tours, and helped us with the Dublin express to the airport (much better than a taxi!). Would definitely stay again!
