Clarion Hotel Dublin Liffey Valley  

thought it was really bad that they took 100 euros deposit on the room yet nothing online about that ,its out of order and put a downer on the weekend

Upon arrival late at night staff were excellent, efficient and friendly - we had booked a cot for the room which was setup ready for our baby, we were also upgraded to a suite as the hotel was fully booked which was a huge bonus as travelling with a young baby the extra space and facilities included in the suite made our stay so much more comfortable. Although children are not allowed in the pool before 9 we were allowed in with the baby before 9 to use the paddling pool which didn't disturb other swimmers. It was great to deal with staff that didn't just quote the rules but used common sense and were very accommodating.

Parking is 4 euro per day which I hate having to pay as a guest of the hotel with its own parking. We were told on our first day that as we had prepaid for our stay we had to pay on each exit which was very annoying as queues were very long but on our second day we were given visitor exit passes for the rest of our stay this should be as standard. Price of breakfast is steep but there was a cheaper option in using a cafe 2 minutes walk from the hotel.

The location suited our requirements exactly. The price offered was excellent. The appointments of the room and the general facilities of the hotel exceeded the expectations we had developed based on the price offered. Car parking is excellent and reasonably priced. All staff with whom we interacted were deeply courteous and dedicated to doing a good job.

all i will say i had a simple sitution very badly handled by the night manager and will never stay there again.

Duvet had stains on that could be seen through the duvet cover, we had complained about stains (possibly blood) on the mattress protectors which were replaced but duvet was not replace, although we did not complain about the duvet seperately it was obviously dirty/stained and should not have been used. Breakfast ridiculouly expensive €50 to order full Irish breakfast roomservice for two. Room very cold at night although radiator on - we were on 6th floor and there was very strong wind which was getting in through the window some how.

Great location to Shopping Centre, clean, very friendly reception staff, easy access and convenient parking

The price of a glass of wine! € 6.95 extortion, wouldnt recommend the bar, these prices are crazy! Lovely Arc bar and restaurant right beside this hotel - normal pries there and food/atmosphere fabulous.

The hotel was very close to the bus line and easy assess to downtown. Comfortable by all means. A great value for the money

We booked this hotel based on the rate and the pool facilities, the hotel was good but nothing outstanding, breakfast was standard buffet, room was lovely but a bit too hot.

Room too hot

It was comfortable and food was nice. reasonable Price

Well for a start we checked in at 8.20am and asked if we could leave our bags. No need the reception booked us in and gave us a free upgrade to apartments. A fantastic gesture and believe me they were stunning. The pool and spa are was also superb and a great chill out bonus

Only thing was that a taxi was nearly 25 euro into city centre. There was buses available though nearby so really if you wanted to get in cheaper you could

Hotel was not very warm and heating in room was only on from 18.00 to 22.30 approx worst thing was the food very poor

We upgraded to a suite, great size, suited us perfectly. Pool was excellent, breakfast good tho pricey.

We especially picked the hotel because it's website said it had Cbeebies and kids video's to rent. 2 of our kids had to stay in the room all day with a nanny as our other child had an appointment at Our Lady's Children Hospital all day. I knew that would help entertain them. But neither existed :(. There was cbbc but that isn't so good for the kids. Thank goodness for the pool for them to spend a couple hours in!

Just location!!!

Cleaning and comfort was really poor.
