Afternoon tea was perfect for a Special occasion. Dinner that evening, was really tasty and well delivered. Breakfast was delicious also. Rooms were spotless clean, cocktails were lovely. Staff were very nice and helpful, nothing was stressful and we had a really relaxing stay. Cherry blossom tree was beautiful to sit under staff turned on the lights for us was lovely.

Chelsey

We stay here every time we go to Dublin, so easy to get to from where we live, and city is easily accessible from the hotel… Staff always very friendly. When we got to reception we found that we were upgraded to Kingsize room, which was a lovely surprise and we were really appreciative. We plan to go to Dublin again for a night next month and are hoping to stay in Skylon again.
