The hotel was very nice and our room was comfortable and clean. The location was gorgeous. Breakfast was included and had a large number of choices to suit all tastes. Malahide is a lovely town and very easy to walk around. If you wish to travel further, there are trains and busses to Dublin and other nearby towns.

Howth is the place to stay when visiting Dublin. Just 30 minutes by train away from he city centre, it is a small but beautiful town on a penninsula surrounded with cliffs and seagull collonies. Many great pubs and restuarants, fantastic views and, contrary to Dublin - the calm and peaceful atmosphere where you can really relax.

I did not know what to expect as we booked last minute to go to a concert in Malahide. Howth is a beautiful seaside town with lots on offer (restaurants, bars, cafes etc...) We hope to return in the near future to spend more time there. Great for couples & families. A bit hilly in places so you need to have good mobility if you want to explore or stay slightly out of town. I visited a beautiful cove in the morning time where there were lots of swimmers in the sea & it was so peaceful...great way to start the day.

Location: This was the first time we were setting foot on Irish soil. King Sitric in Howth was the first place we headed to from Dublin Airport. No regrets! So much to see and do in Howth. Charming views in every direction. So much to take in.
Transport: A short taxi ride or walk to the train station. Buses stop less than 100m from the hotel. I think one even passes right in front of the hotel.
People: The Irish are the best. Everywhere, they seem to be so welcoming and genuine.
Hotel and Rooms: Interesting history. It should be promoted more. Pleasant and friendly staff. Our room was steps from the ocean. What a lovely welcome to a lovely country. The room had nice little touches. Loved the in-room Nespresso & chocs. Nice hot showers.
Food: Amazingly fresh seafood in the restaurant downstairs for dinner (apparently caught by local fisherman in the sea right outside our room) and upstairs for guests' breakfasts; the menu items were well-chosen. Fish is also an option for breakfast! Found it strange though that so little bread is given, as there's so much rich and flavourful sauce to lap up. We even paid for more bread, but again it was just one tiny slice of bread. Maybe it's an Irish thing?
Pricing: We found Ireland in general to be very expensive, from hotels to food to shopping.

Nice city few minutes away from Dublin's airport. Some hidden beaches. Some good pubs to have a drink or eat like O'Connells. Great views of the sea.
The road can be steep, I recommend having a vehicule. Various accommodations like Glenn na Smol (B&B).

Cliff walk, buzz of day trippers, cafes and restaurants.
Cliff walk, buzz of day trippers, cafes and restaurants. Everything well maintained. Initially had trouble getting a pre dinner drink as most bars.taverns are booking their tables for diners. We were put out in the cold in O'Connells! Finally hit on The Harbour Bar which was lovely.

All the pubs serve the same type food ...very dated - fish and chips all that beautiful fish in batter...such a shame - there would need to be more variety without having to avail of fine dining. The food offerings do seem to be stuck in a time zone, needs to be more vegetarian, vegan etc....
However, Howth is beautiful and well worth a stay.
Sean was an amazing man.... So friendly, chatty and helpful. We were in Howth for a funeral and he was able to help others with accommodation last minute. He went out his way to make this happen.... Couldn't have asked for a better host! With us; he made us feel very welcome and cooked a great breakfast for us.
The guest house is a typical Irish home.... He was happy to give details of the property's history. His home is clean, tidy and a classic Irish warren! I loved it.
Thank you Sean... So very much for your kindness.
Absolutely wonderful, family owned property encompassing both the accommodations and restaurant (East). The rooms were incredibly clean, well appointed and with beautiful sea views. Breakfast was included and outstanding. East, which is the seafood restaurant downstairs, provided one of the most memorable meals in memory - I highly recommend the oysters, Dublin bay prawns and crab. Simple and perfectly executed. Thanks to all at King Sitric who made our stay so memorable. Howth is a gem, and we can’t wait to return. Sláinte!
The staff were great. Because we had to leave very early, they prepared us a buffet breakfast for the morning and left it in our room. Because we arrived quite late they made the effort to fit us in to their restaurant for an evening meal, which was delicious. The room was modern and really comfortable with an excellent en-suite. The location was fantastic being right on the seafront with walks around the marina and the lighthouse. Very convenient for travel to Dublin ferry terminal. Would definitely recommend!
The house was in an amazing location in Howth. The house was wonderful and extremely well equipped for every eventuality, including a prolonged power cut on Thursday night - we were able to find night lights and light a fire to keep warm while the electricity was out. The house is comfortable and very tastefully decorated you can tell that utensils, homeware etc. was good quality. There was no need for anything, everything that you needed for a visit was provided.
We had the loveliest time at Gleann Na Smol! Our host was a delight/ His welcoming hospitality went over and beyond our expectations. The breakfasts were fabulous, the conversations were a joy, and the added time he spent with us assisting us with the are was extremely kind. If we return to Howth, we will certainly stay here again!
This hotel is a hidden gem of Ireland. The front desk staff was very friendly and helpful.The room was very comfortable. We opened the window and slept very well with the sounds of the sea. Breakfast was cooked to order and delicious. There are many things to see near the hotel. We wished we had stayed more than one night.
Very good location in a nice small harbor close to Dublin (and the Dublin airport) as well as to Newgrange. Peaceful place, harbor and nice restaurants are in a walking distance. Great and very helpful owner. Tasty Irish breakfast. Rooms are small and equipment very basic but they are good for few nights.
The B&B is at a great location. The owner was very welcoming and the room had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. I had a great night's sleep. The breakfast was lovely. There is a very homely atmosphere in the house. I will sure come back next time I'm in Howth.
Within walking distance to town. Easy enough to the Howth cliff walks. In the morning we were able to mingle with other travelers. Sean was helpful and offered to help us carry luggage in. He made room for us for our car. Convenient to Dublin and the airport.
This lovely accomodation and the hosts are a gateway and door to straight away get a taste of Ireland and it's open hearted people. Highly recommend the Irish music night on a Wednesday night at the tophouse pub. Lovely breakfast as well at the accomodation.
Location fantastic, pretty village, easy to get into Dublin centre. Hosts very flexible on our arrival, considering our plane was delayed 3 hours and we arrived much later than intended. Clean, spacious apartment. Would recommend.
Perfect location facing the ocean and easy walk to all restaurants and stores in Howth. We watched a sunset on the pier and sunrise from our room. Staff very friendly and accommodating. Clean and efficient room.
Superb Location. Clean comfortable quiet rooms. Excellent breakfast. Howth is a little gem, not to be missed when visiting Dublin. We really enjoyed the cliff walk, incredible views!
