  Raddison Dublin Airport

  Access to the hotel was very straightforward. Parking was uneventful after I had unloaded the car of all the baggage. I was told that I was being up-graded to a business clas room but it was not an upgrade and the toilet would not even flush and the air con would not work either even though I had told the desk after I stayed on 19/12/2015 that the room was too hot, this time it was the same, no spare blanket in the press and we took duvet out of cover and slept under the sheeting! The meal in the T3 restaurant was horrendous. 3 of us had fish and chips, fish was invisible, covered in batter dripping in oil and an egg cup of mushy peas! The chips were ok! Later other people had fish and chips and they got 2 fillets, nicely cooked, not burnt like ours, I will book another hotel in the future, it's just not acceptable. I've stayed at the Raddison in Sligo and its was excellent but my 2 bookings at Dublin airport in December have been disastrous !

  Dublin within reach

  To be honest, people don't stay in this location for the love of Cloghran. This is a hotel excellently located for both airport and city access. The hotel itself is away from the local town but for those with their own transport there is no difficulty exploring the local area. The majority of residents tend to dine within the hotel itself or either take a trip into the city. For those without their own vehicles, access to the city can be made by taxi from the hotel or a number of coach and bus services operating from the airport which will take around half an hour depending on traffic. For those who want to be closer to the city you will need to consider an alternate hotel but this could be very expensive especially at popular vacation times

  Poor Complacent service in a "corporate" hotel

  1) Poor service at Radisson Blu Reception - we were not told about the need to use a keycard to call the lift (and was only given one between the two of us). 2) Reception did not advise us of the discounted parking available. 3) Restaurant service very slow - at 8.30 pm staff were more interested in dealing with the cutlery for the following day. 4) Despite having an "executive room" we had to ask for water, rather than this being provided as a matter of course.

  The room did not look like the one that appears in the photo;

  The room did not look like the one that appears in the photo; it had three single beds. I had dinner at the restaurant and very much enjoyed the meal. The food was fresh and was nicely presented. It is easy to get around. I would probably try to arrive earlier so as to avoid the crowd waiting for the shuttle but with the chauffeur who was extremely helpful and pleasant to everyone it didn't matter too much that it was crowded.

  Great for an overnight or longer stay.

  Swords has a good mix of old and new. Historical old buildings mixed with large new Shopping Centre. Old style Main Street just off the M1 Dublin/ Belfast Motorway and short hop to Airport and Seaside. Once outside town you are in the heart of the countryside, lush farmland and horsey country with many Golf courses close by. Lovely but hidden part of the country.

  Arrived late in evening, and hadn't eaten,.

  Arrived late in evening, and hadn't eaten,. It was literally two minute drive into Swords to find a restaurant. We had 5.30 am pick up at the airport. We were just about to leave and realised the flight had been delayed for 4 hours. We jumped back into bed and had another 4 hours sleep. Didn't really get to see much of hotel, but ideal location for what we wanted. Breakfast was fine.
