We were contemplating to stay more central location or Herbert Park Hotel till the last moment, and were glad with our final decision. It is a bit away from the downtown, yet maybe due to the distance, quiet and peaceful. We walked to the downtown, which took less than 30 min. There is a nice beach nearby and was perfect for my morning run. Also, there was a far,er's market at the park on Sundays! The room was spacious, so as the bathroom. I liked the nice deep bathtub. When I read the review before, I noticed that somebody complained the noise of the A/C but we did not notice anything.

Parking space was a bit tight.

Great hotel, lovely comfortable corner room with double aspect window overlooking the park. Very convenient to the city centre which is about 25 min walk or a 5 min taxi . The facilities and staff were excellent at this hotel, we had an emergency and ended up in A&E with a family member - restaurant manager was so helpful - arranged for us to have breakfast in the lobby and we could leave the car there all day. Great value considering it was All Ireland football weekend - we will definitely be back. 5 stars for staff and facilities and value for money - bed was very comfortable also!

nothing

Check-in was easy, staff very pleasant. Room was comfortable enough. Decent-sized mirror positioned on desk beside plenty of plug sockets for using hairdryer and straighteners, and doing makeup. Sufficient room around bed and room for luggage. Extra pillows provided in wardrobe (although I still could not get the pillows right). Decent sized free water bottles provided and replenished both days which was a great touch. Lots of great restaurants and shops within easy reach of the hotel. Lovely location.

No plug sockets or USB plugs beside the bed. Shower over bath (really just want a walk-in shower these days). Fixed shower head on wall with no hand held. Furnishings felt quite old fashioned. Bed was not the comfiest. Housekeeping came to service room at 10.30am on a Sunday morning!! (seems far too early for most guests on a weekend). No kettle provided for making tea (could use the Nespresso machine but the water had an odd taste and the cups were TINY!).

Location to the RDS was crucial for us so this ticked ALL the boxes! The apt rooms are gorgeous and worth it to book! Lots of lil extra touches.

We had an apt room and unfortunately our aircon was broken it was late when we discovered it so staff offered to move us but we didn’t wanna pack up so they dropped up fans and gave us a complimentary breakfast which was a lovely gesture BUT as a result of the aircon being broken we had to leave the door open as the fan really didn’t cut it and the beautiful Irish weather meant it was a hotbox and at 6:45am we were woken up by bulldozers behind the hotel working and it was unbearably loud! It was such a shame as it’s not the hotels fault but drastically affected our stay! I mentioned it that morning at the desk but nothing really came of it which is a shame as the hotel and stay up to this point had been perfect!

As a long-time traveler, I have experienced many places and hotels. This hotel is record-breaking. The reception and service in the breakfast room was very professional and competent. When I asked when lactose-free milk would be available, I was offered coconut milk as an alternative. The next day, this milk was already on my table before I even ordered it. When there was a small technical problem, they responded immediately and offered various solutions within a few minutes. 200 m away (near the American Embassy) is a bus stop that goes to the center.

Nothing.

We had fond memories of the hotel but hadn't stayed for several years. Glad to say it didn't disappoint with it's elegant reception and public areas, lovely views of the Park, spacious room and good breakfast. The staff are very helpful and efficient and were very good in finding the glasses which I had mislaid. My husband's birthday was marked with a room upgrade and some sweet treats in our room.

The pattern on the carpets in the corridors and rooms makes them look worn and shabby which they aren't . The shower with its single fixed head is rather basic and not in keeping with the quality of the hotel.

have to say this hotel knows what it’s doing From check-in, which was warm and friendly to when I left it was five star luxury The receptionist on check-in was delightful, she was warm and friendly and fast! I was thrilled to hear that I’d received an upgrade, made my day My room was absolutely stunning, so clean and fresh it smelt amazing. The amenities in the room were excellent. All that I needed. The shower was huge and indulgent. I ordered room service dinner, which was delicious. I also ordered room service breakfast, which was also delicious. I felt refreshed and rejuvenated after my stay . The bed was beyond comfortable. Every single person I met that worked there was professional, but incredibly personable and friendly. I highly recommend this hotel. Everything from the food to the service is just amazing. I’d happily stay here again and again I look forward to my next day.

Not so keen on the toiletries in the room. also would be great if they had a mirror on the dressing table.

Fantastic location less than 14min walk from Lansdown Dart through ballsbridge village. Beautiful lobby area with plants, trees, candles, great ambience and marble floors, nice lighting, loved it. The room was supervclean, cosy and the shower perfectly met my heat and water power strength. As I could not have breakfast due to v early start reception offered wake up call which delivered on time. The staff prepped me a goodie food bag instead of breakfast n booked my taxi. Wonderful experience 😃 Staff very accommodating, helpful, kudos to all. I would stay again.

Not staying longer

Have stayed here several times. Love the downstairs lounge, a great place to meet with friends and family. It’s in the best place, close enough to the city centre and on the doorstep of the beautiful Herbert Park, Ballsbridge and beautiful Sandymount Village and the Strand. Just love the area, it has everything for a great stay in Dublin.

While the en-suite was good, the showers need to be upgraded and the power is poor. This is a problem in most hotels and it would be great if this problem could be resolved!

I grew up in Dublin and remember a time long ago before the hotel was built. The purpose of our stay was to meet friends and relatives whom we hadn't seen for a couple of years as we now live in Co. Donegal. We chose the hotel because of the location and the on-site parking. We put the car in the underground park and, except for two brief visits to friends, left it there for 3 days. There is regular public transport nearby, both bus and rail, with taxis on call. The staff are welcoming, friendly and efficient.

The shower is over the bath. That is intrisically unsafe and we would have preferred a shower cubicle. Also, there was no extract fan in the bathroom. Some of the power sockets are of a type no longer used and don't match current plug types.
