Lock in a great price for Dublin Skylon Hotel – rated 8.5 by recent guests!

to get started.

It's right next to a bus stop to the airport. Fifteen minutes ride. Good pub across the street.

Patricia, United States of America

Staff were so helpful. Hotel very nice and 15 min to airport Short ride into town center

Joan, United States of America

Eggs mscrambled not great. All breakfast items were hot. Found bacon rather salty but other items were excellent

Veronica, United Kingdom

My four friends and I shared a family room with three beds on our last night in Dublin. There was nothing wrong with the room itself. Very clean and the beds were so comfy. The staff got us an extra fan to help with my snoring friends. But I did pass another of the rooms with just two beds and it looked like there was a lot more space in that room and I kind of wished I had booked that one instead. Nothing wrong with the hotel or the room itself though! Very nice hotel. They called us a cab and we got to the airport no problem.

Ashley, United States of America

Very clean! The hotel was right on the bus route so easy access. This hotel was clean, quiet and the staff was fantastic! Our favorite place over the 8 other places we stayed at. Will definitely stay there again.

Anthony, United States of America

The staff are very professional and friendly. All in all a pleasant environment combined with good facilities.

“Good location near DCU and not far from the airport.”
- • Business trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Twin Room
- • Stayed 1 night
눉Breakfast (some toast, yoghurt) was expensive at 9 Euros.
눇Comfortable room and good though compact bathroom. No aircon, but the fan worked well. Nice desk/work area and comfy chairs. The hotel is on the bus route from/to the airport and not far from DCU - 5 mins by taxi. There's not a lot else nearby in terms of restaurants, although the Fagan's pub in Drumcondra village 5 minutes' walk away does reasonable pub food, or is nice for a relaxing drink. The hotel restaurant didn't offer much in the way of veggie meals.

“Easy drive to airport”
- • Leisure trip

눇Wanted to be close to the airport for our last night in Ireland (early flight) after our visit to the Boyne Valley. Didn't realize it was a UK bank holiday, so our available options were limited in our desired price range; but we were pleasantly surprised. The room was quite nice and spacious. It was easy to find in Drumcondra (may come up as "Best Western" on your GPS). Wanted to walk to dinner: there were several options right across the street, but we were glad we did the extra walk down to Fagan's for a late dinner and our last Irish Whiskey lesson (from the staff and some locals). Easy 8km drive to the airport via N1-M50-M1 and good signage to the rental car return.

“Nice hotel for a trip to Dublin”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple

- • Stayed 2 nights
눉It was way to hot in there the windows can't be opened widely, you just allows a gab of 3 or 4 centimetres. And there is no air con in Ireland.
눇Nice hotel in the nearby the airport. There is a public bus going to the airport, as well as some going in the city. It takes about 20 minutes to both. We had a nice and spacious room. I don't understand the issues regarding the safety of this area, we felt safe all the time! Good restaurants nearby. The housekeeper we had on our floor was so nice, special thanks to Marek he is very polite and attentive!! The bar is very modern and invites you for one or two beers. And also a thank-you to the hotel itself, we celebrated a birthday and had a bottle of sparkling wine on our room! That was very nice. Compared to the high prices of Dublin this was a good price, but still expensive. Nevertheless we had a good stay and slept well. Would go there again.

눉although it looked nice from the outside and indeed the foyer was nice the room was a total let down , no AC in the room just a small electric fan, toilet pan was cracked and wobbled, and a poor repair of the bathroom door which left 2 panel pins sticking out! the room was in great need of a refurb! very tired looking, bed was not very comfy. view from room was horrible lovely big skip! and the dog that barked most of the time didn't help! for nearly 300 euros ( and that didn't include breakfast ) it was not worth the money!!
