Dublin Mountain Vacations

The hotel was clean. Breakfasts were hot and food was varied and sufficient. Staff were professional, warm and friendly.

We stayed at this hotel at the beginning of and the last day of a 10-day trip to Ireland. The first time was without problems, it is a nice hotel. However our last day there was less than ideal. The 2 elevators that go from the underground parking to the hotel were both out of service (one wasn't working the first time either). This required us to carry heavy luggage up a set of stairs to another levels elevator that took us to the street in front of the hotel. My partner had recent knee surgery so this was a huge inconvenience. Also the air conditioning in our room the last night of our stay was not working. The room was at 30 deg C/86 F when we entered and only cooled to 27 C when we got back a few hours later. As the hotel was fully booked they were unable to move us to another room. The staff provided a couple of fans, but still not a comfortable temperature to sleep. They did give us a complimentary breakfast. Note that this hotel's lobby is on the 3rd floor of the building and has escalators from the ground floor, in addition to the 2 elevators. In light of the potential for elevator issues, be weary if you or someone you are traveling with has difficulty walking or is in a wheelchair. On the positive side... it is a clean hotel and the staff are very friendly. The lounge and restaurant area are very nice and the food and drinks were very good.

Nice property, but needed Air Conditioning when it's advertised when you have an Executive King Suite.

Light switches in room were broken. Dirty shower curtains and dirty fan in bathroom. Stained bedsheets and floor had not been hoovered. Found nail clippings from previous guests. From then I was unhappy about us and my children walking barefoot. Bedroom curtains smelt heavy with dust and smoke which really wasn't ideal with a 3 month old. Travel cot was not suitable, no proper mattress. Baby slept in our bed which was super hard and noisy and also in her pram. Big whole in the floor boards under carpet so made alot of noise walking, tried to avoid it during the night. Rooms could do with proper air con and a mini fridge. My toddler had a temperature from the heat and it was really hard trying to cool him down. Other than that, the bar staff were great, we filled up the kids water bottles each morning and night and brought some ice to the room to keep them cool. Very odd the buses are kept right beside bedroom windows. we retired earlier on our second night due to heat exhaustion and were met with beeping buses parking up to 10pm. Location of family room wasn't great because we could hear the music from the events room/hall at night, plus the 4/5 steps before our hallway was difficult with a pram. There was a little lift, but it was hard to operate and we didnt have time to wait for it each time so we ended up lifting pram up and down. WiFi connection wasn't great. Kids weren't able to watch t.v but thankfully id brought their iPads. Opted out of breakfast because of price.

The staff were great. However during check in I was told to not walk outside by myself with my kids. There were people in the parking lot doing drugs.
