The property is a Heritage home which I did not realize. The breakfast was free and it was served in the dining room of the home which wasn’t very big so you had to wait for a seat. No bar or other restaurant. Too quiet for my liking!

We were “upgraded” to a deluxe suite. online pics/description showed large rooms, sitting area and king sized beds. We got a moderate room, 2 chairs & a FULL sized bed. The vast difference prompted me to go to reception to ask what your of room we got. There was hardly ever anyone at the reception desk to speak to after that. We were also told about the breakfast/times. We asked about ordering in to our room, and was told yes we could. The next morning when we called to order, the woman went to ask the kitchen. She came back and told us that the kitchen said they were too busy to accommodate us. When my husband went down to grab some things, all that was left was a handful of pastries…it was 9am. We left the “please tidy” placard on our door, as the housekeeping was next door when we left we told the desk that our tub drain was running slowly and water was sitting during our shower. We were assured that maintenance would take care of it. We returned late afternoon to find our room not cleaned. No one was available so I had to email to request the cleaning and maintenance again. When we returned, there was no one at the desk, we called later..again no one. I emailed about ordering breakfast..no reply..still. Next day when showering, noticed that maintenance had not been done. My husband went down to grab breakfast and again, only a handful of pasties and one spoonful of fruit @930. Coffee maker was broken. There was always either no water or no glasses available in

Hotel was adorable. They offer cookies and cake and juice when you arrive. They were helpful when I asked questions. Love that I had a claw bathtub. You can hear other people upstairs and in the hallway unfortunately. But this hotel is very cute and in a lovely location. I would definitely return.

Excellent Hotel.

An elegant accommodation option for discovering Dublin and its surroundings. I would classify it as a boutique hotel, where the Victorian atmosphere and attention to detail are paramount. Its rooms are spacious, bright, and very comfortable. And its food, specializing in delicious breakfasts, is very good and high-quality. Another highlight of this hotel is its staff: friendly, helpful, and willing to help at any time. We spent four nights as a family and were very happy with our stay, recommending it.

The staff was superb. They really went above and beyond, helping us with our luggage, storing the stroller, bringing a fan to our room when I felt warm, and even finding a microwave to make a late night snack for our 2 year old. Was overall very impressed.

Beautiful property and fantastic staff! We got an upgrade on checking in without even asking, thank you. The breakfast in the conservatory is very special, so tasty and beautifully presented. The only very small thing which I feel would improve it is a shelf in the bathroom for toiletries. A minor detail I know but balancing them on the edge of the bath became a bit frustrating. We would definitely stay here again if coming back to the area.
