to get started.

Loved this hotel! Beautifully designed, everything was gorgeous and the room was pretty big. The location is fine but not amazing, about 10 minutes walk from the center but close to trinity college.

Hila, Israel

Newly opened hotel in Downtown Dublin, easy walk to the major site and bars of Dublin. However far enough away to get a great nights sleep. Staff is knowledgable, quick to offer help and suggestions, and willing to go the extra mile to make sure your stay is supurb.

Paul, United States of America

I did not partake in breakfast, but had coffee in my room. The hotel provided a hot water pot, cups, spoons, and coffee.

Suzanne, United States of America

All was up to my expectations and it was an excellent choice. It’s centrally located and extremely comfortable.

Luca, Austria

The interior design of the hotel is so modern and cute, whether in the lobby or in the rooms. The hotel was very clean and my room was quiet. The shower was my favourite. Glass door and very easy to turn it on and off without getting wet and being shocked with cold water. Convenient outlets throughout the room and a high tech hair dryer!

Mimili37, United States of America

I liked the overall design of the hotel. The rooms were comfortable, and housekeeping did a good job. We liked the breakfast buffet, and all of the staff but one person were very friendly and helpful. The location was good for our particular business needs.

Ruth, United States of America

The breakfast was lovely! The bed was very comfortable and it was in a good location.

Chloe, Ireland

Hotel is modern and stylish and the location is fine, a little bit out of the center, but we didn’t mind walking.

August, United States of America

The Alex took care of me even before my arrival. Great location, kind and helpful staff, everything was just great.

Newer hotel, great location and access to City Center. Rooms have bedside charging stations, mini fridge and personal use safe. Bathrooms have rain head walk in showers. Clean, modern decor throughout with great staff providing excellent customer service.

I paid for breakfast and didn't receive it. Really rude hostile red-haired night shift person who needs to get out of the hospitality business. Who picks a fight over a receipt? The man with the red-hair does!
The concierge was nice. Two ladies on the front desk were nice and helped me with directions.

I couldn't fault the hotel was one of my favorite hotels I have ever stayed in. Superb.
Breakfast was lovely and was positioned in a great part of the city, not too far that you need to get public transport into the city center but far enough to have a break away from all the madness. :)
