We like quaint lovely old buildings with character. Ariel House was just that and more with outstanding staff and breakfast. The only drawback is the shower which was probably new and had not been tested well. Water leaked from the base. It was a beautiful new bathroom but the water did not drain well because it was too level. It needs a raised edge To stop the leak. Otherwise 5 stars!

We had a wonderful experience at Ariel House. It was beautiful, comfortable and quiet. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast and cakes in the drawing room were excellent. Our bathroom had some wear and tear, but I understand that they are in the middle of renovations. So, I'm assuming those things are being addressed, bit by bit. If you want old world charm and a peaceful atmosphere with easy access to Dublin city center, this is a wonderful spot. I would absolutely stay here again.

This property is very beautiful the location is really great however this hotel is not suitable for older people. The breakfast service was very terrible as we constantly felt rushed. the hotel was fully booked and we did not get our seat promptly. I absolutely have no issues waiting for a table because I understand that the hotel was fully booked and busy - however as soon as we sat down we felt extremely rushed both days that we ate there. We asked for clean towels to be set in our room and when we got back the towels that they had replaced were extremely dirty and had brown spots on them . I told front desk about this and I thought they were going to notify the manager but they never did. We went there with my parents who needed help with their luggage since there are a lot of stairs in this property. The stairs are completely fine and it was in the listing so I completely understood. However when we went to the front desk to ask for assistance for my parents to help them with their luggage the front desk person was sleeping in the lobby - they did not offer to help us at all. This was extremely unprofessional considering that my parents were older, and we had been told the front desk offer is 24 /seven and they did not help us with their luggage at all. Overall the properties very beautiful but the staff is horrendous. I’ve never the type of person to leave a negative review but this truly blew my mind how terrible the service was.

Beautiful hotel but needs work

The staff were all excellent, very sweet and helpful. The rooms were very nicely decorated but not very functional at all. The shower especially, is designed very poorly and would be very difficult for anyone who struggles with balance. The light switches are very confusing to coordinate. The air in the room couldn’t be cooled down without an open window and a fan, which a staff member brought up to us. There isn’t an outlet next to a mirror if you need one for drying or curling hair. The only mirror is low, above the desk. And the outlet in the bathroom is only for shavers, which is true of most hotels in Ireland but very inconvenient, in my opinion. We were a group of three sisters and the space was extremely cramped for us. The only place to put our luggage was on the floor so we were constantly having to step over luggage to get around. We only had one bag each. The treats in the lobby were a nice touch and the decor was lovely.

I wanted to love the property but found it just okay. They never replenished the tea or tea cups in the common room, they didn’t have wine glasses for the limited wine. The room was warm with no way that I could see to adjust the temperature. I asked for towels and no room cleaning and didn’t receive the towels. The breakfast was delicious and the staff working the breakfast were very friendly and professional. It’s walkable to good restaurants, but I think overall it would benefit from better attention to detail.

Breakfast was wonderful and a treat to be pampered by the waitstaff. The only suggestion I have is to have a guest laundry available.

Well located, few mins walk to Aviva stadium and bus stop nearby to go into the centre. Nicely decorated lounge with complimentary tea, coffee and cake. Breakfast was ok. Very disappointed not to have been told in advance of work taking place in the property. Woken up at 8.30am to loud crashing and drilling sounds right beside our room. Also unable to avail of free hotel parking as those carrying out the work had large vans parked in the car park.
