Room was very comfortable. Probably a bit dated at this stage. TV etc, disappointed with the old fashioned type hairdryer in bathroom but overall a very comfortable sleep. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful especially a young man Paul who was at reception today and went out of his way to help an elderly relative. Breakfast was standard buffet. Expensive i felt but probably standard rate for hotels these days.

Nice stay at this hotel - overall the decor is a tad dated and could do with an uplift but hit said not take from the overall comfy and cosy stay and experience. Quality of bedding was excellent and I have to commend all and every staff I dealt with from check in through to breakfast staff and evening ba staff ( Harrys Bar) - everyone was super helpful, professional and went above and beyond to make our stay pleasurable. Truly!

Évènement sur place lors de notre nuit, musique, à fond, beaucoup de mal à pouvoir dormir. Je conseille de prendre la vue face mer sinon vous êtes face à un parking, qui éclairait toute la nuit. Et qui traverse la chambre, c’est comme s’il faisait jour.

It's a great location if you are visiting Dun Laoghaire and there are stunning views. However, some of the balconies in one of the newer builds are concrete, meaning you can't see the view when sitting down, and there is no outdoor furniture. The rooms are pretty tired and in desperate need of a refurb. Beds are very comfortable and the room we had (Executive Sea View) was a great size. Service in the lounge is very slow but the staff are pleasant and helpful.

We spent three pleasant days at this hotel. Rooms are updated and well-laid out. Bed is super comfortable for those who just arrived on a flight from the US! Staff was competent and friendly enough. We tried to check in about 1-2 pm, originally they said could check in at 4 and store our bags, but a room immediately came free, which was very appreciated. Buffet breakfast and food in the cafe outside the bar were pretty good. All in all a good stay. Thank you!
