IrelandWe were upgraded to a suite which was awesome! The room was large, comfortable and nicely decorated. Great location…..easy to walk places but also in a quieter spot. The breakfast buffet was convenient and good. Kimpton hotels are always reliable for good customer service and unique and eclectic properties and this one was definitely that. I would recommend a stay here.

United States of AmericaI lived in the hotel for three weeks. So I could figure out, what works well and what doesn’t. 1) the team at the front desk is incredibly friendly. Thanks them 2) Both restaurants are really good: BABA and AIZLE. Highly recommended 3) the location is convenient, everything is close to the hotel 4) nice pool and sauna, a pretty big gym (however a ceiling is too low) 5) many small details in the room: yoga mat, coffee set and ect
