Grand Central Hotel  

Check out was for 11.am by 3 minutes past 11 , cleans knew we were still in the room, but no mannars at all , I was just out of the shower and they decided to walk in and peek into my room, at breakfast time the milk on the table, had a think layer like paint on it, I even had to ask was this milk.

A bar, restuarant and spa in the hotel so not far to go to get good food and service. Vending machine on 3rd floor at anytime you can get water or a snack when shops are closed.

The tv in our room did not work, it didnt really bother us and also people in the hallways at night time screaming and making alot of noise.

Our room was incredibly spacious, and, being on the top floor, quiet (even though we were on the side facing the street). The bed was comfortable and the room and bathroom were very clean.

The girl at reception couldn't have been more disinterested or unhelpful. We stood at the desk for a couple of minutes before she even acknowledged us, and when we asked if they had a map, she sighed, pulled out a children's map (yes, children's) and then spent a good couple of minutes trying to work out where the hotel was. When she finally made a mark, it was in the completely wrong spot. The hotel also needs to improve its wifi access. It's only available in the lobby and it's near impossible to pick the signal up.

Hotel has no car park ,no gym and when we went to the room there were no shampoo or conditoner in the bathe room we were put in a front room and doh we had some drinks we got no sleep because of the noise of the crowds till 6 in the morning and the traffic was the same

The breakfast was great.

We hardly got any sleep due to kids being up late out the front of our room making noise, car alarms going off etc. They need double glazed windows or to give people the option of not staying on the road side of the hotel.

Lovely Breakfast

Windows could do with a cleaning new curtains;lamps very poor quality;a biscuit perhaps for your tea;room 305.

honestly nothing much

when we arrived the lifts were broken and were on the 5th floor as a member of are party is disabled this just was not good enough the tv in the room did not work we asked 4 times for this to fixed and nobody even bothered to check and we keep awake at night from the late night entertainment coming from the bar i lodged a formal complaint with the hotel and im still waiting on a reply from the genaral manager sonia (nearly a week later and still counting) p.s booking.coms confermation email told me after booking that check out was between 11.00.am and midday we were locked out of are rooms at 11 am when i asked at reception i was told we should have checked out before 11 am and before i was allowed back in room to gather my belongings i had to prove this by showing them the email

Had to check out at 11am when most hotels allow a 12 noon check out. Queried a late check out on Sunday morning and was told no because they were closing up the hotel for the week. Also, no food available in the bar at 8pm on Saturday night even though it was advertised in the lift until 9pm. These aren't complaints,it's just not the way we have ever come across a hotel being run, it was like they weren't even bothered about the extra business for little to no effort on their part. Never seen a hotel being run like this, and we both work in the hotel industry.

We stayed the weekend of the "Celtic Convention" & as I booked online was not aware of this!! The entrance to the hotel was littered with fast food cartons & was impossible to enter without running a gauntlet of drunk people. The noise of the music from the bar was deafening both Sat & Sun. & altho residents we were asked for a 20 euro cover charge to have a drink in the bar?? Not that we would have gone in anyway.

Just had time out

Lovely staff, great breakfast.

Very empty. didn't see any other guests so very quiet and lacking atmosphere. However we were staying off season mid week when there tends to be less people about.

The breakfast was just ok.

When we arrived the desk wasn't occupied so we had to go to the bar for the check-in. The whole hotel looks shabby, the room was dirty, it smells weird and the hotel is in an area where you do not really feel save at night.
