The hotel is situated directly behind a beach & the view from our room was absolutely stunning! Staff were very helpful & friendly and all areas of the hotel were spotlessly clean. Shops and a couple of restaurants were within walking distance, the train station is a short walk away and there is a bus stop directly outside the hotel. The pool is functional, however, the steam room had an awful stench and the sauna was only lukewarm- these facilities would benefit from some modernisation. We really enjoyed our stay at the hotel, it was very relaxing and we would highly recommend it- we will definitely return at some stage in the future.

First time staying in the Marine Hotel. I stayed for 2 nights - the only suitable room that matched my dates when booking was a Superior Double Room with Sea View with breakfast included. I arrived early (c1pm) and was able to leave my bag in storage. Returned c4pm and was able to check-in. My room (423) was faultless. Breakfast was excellent - buffet of a wide range of hot and cold options. Check out was quick and easy. After check - out I was able to leave my bag in storage while I was out on the final morning. All the staff that I dealt with - both at Reception and in the Breakfast Room - were friendly and helpful. The location is excellent with Sutton Dart station a 5-10 minute walk away. Sutton seemed well serviced with bus options. Howth was a half hour walk away. If I planned to visit the same north Dublin area again then I would happily stay again in the Marine Hotel.

Nothing really springs to mind. I noticed that my room wasn't cleaned or checked after the first night - some hotels do and others don't. Wasn't an issue

I loved the fact that I could look out my room window and see Dublin Bay, and a chance to walk along the beach. The view from the hotel was stunning. The room was comfortable and the staff were very friendly. I would go there again if I return.

The first night I was at the hotel for dinner, I felt like I was being ignored by my waiter. I had to ask him to take my order, good came fairly promptly. Then I waited for almost 20 minutes after I ate, before he came to see if I needed anything else. I could see him at the counter and another waiter told him to tend to my needs. I ordered tea. Then I waited a long time for a bill so I ended up going to the counter to pay. Others were in the restaurant and they followed me to the counter to pay for their meal. I never saw that waiter after that. That would be my only complaint. I meant to say something at the hotel at the time but I didn't.

The location is marvellous. The Marine Hotel looks over Dublin Bay from the isthmus to the beautiful Howth Peninsula. It's less than 30 minutes by car from the airport and only 8 minutes walk from Sutton Station on the DART electric railway to Dublin and beyond. Beautiful shaded lawns lead down to the shingle and sand beach and there is an indoor swimming pool. The staff are friendly and helpful. A very nice cooked breakfast was included and dinner is available in a pleasant informal restaurant.

The hotel is ideal for Weddings and parties but may be booked up early on for certain weekends. We changed our plans to stay here midweek rather than over what was clearly going to be a busy weekend.

Friendly at reception I’m sorry I’ve forgotten the Lady’s name A Walk to Beach Through A Garden and Gate so Close we enjoyed Breakfast was yummy, and service was very good & quick with our Tea, Coffee & Home Made Brown Bread, Food was always topped up not waiting at Self Service Good size Car Park to

The Lift was abit Sqeaky so could hear that in our room early morning but it actually wasn’t Loud so I’m sure that’ll get oiled.. Thought the Italian Restaurant was open but only used for Breakfast so Disappointed couldn’t eat there, but ate in the Bar/Restaurant it’s was Good & Nice, it is an Older Traditional Hotel but I didn’t let other Reviews I’d read out us off.

We were pleasantly surprised by the size of our room, it was really spacious with comfortable beds and great facilities. Bathroom with bathtub and high-quality products from Rituals. The hotel's own restaurant is also highly recommended. Beautiful view of the sea and large parking lot right in front of the hotel. Ideal if you are departing from Dublin airport in the morning, it only takes about 20 minutes.

The breakfast was unfortunately not so great for vegetarians, the scrambled eggs were not particularly enjoyable, so I had toast, tomato and some fruit.

The hotel itself may seem kind of 'classic,' if that makes sense, but the room was extremely spacious and modern, and perfectly clean. The bed was comfortable, and the bathroom was big enough. Breakfast was okay—there wasn't a lot of variety, but it was sufficient. The staff were awesome.

The hotel is a bit far from Dublin, but we managed to travel to and from the city by cab, which cost approximately 25 pounds per trip. It's not a lot, but it's something to consider if you need to go downtown frequently.

Fantastic location, close to public transport for access to Dublin City and airport . A short drive to a fishing village Howth Pier and Howth Head for hikes and trails . Close to the famous sea front for cycling, walking and running . Direct access to a beach . Literally Across the street is a bank , a large grocery store with amazing food choices , a coffee shop and a Thai take away . There is a well known hairdresser and international coffee franchise spot with a pharmacy inside the open air shopping area. It is quiet and has parking , hotel is set back and has a pool with private grounds and beach access . The views of the bay and surrounding landscape is stunning . Fresh sea air and the sound of native Curlew great for bird watchers . The hotel restaurant has amazing fish and chips and the bar is spacious with comfy sofas . The sea view room is huge and modern with huge modern bathroom and excellent shower . Bed is comfortable .

This hotel is in a great central location, close to Howth village which is nice to explore & close to the bus and dart station. It is also facing onto the beach and within walking distance of Burrow beach. The rooms were very clean and comfortable &beautiful decor in the lounge and bar. There is a good breakfast, lunch&dinner menu. There is a good swimming pool/sauna &steam room at the back.

To get to the pool you need to follow a path at the back to get to the next building. There is a gate at the back of hotel that leads out onto the beach but it didn't open very wide due to sand so it was a very tight squeeze it would have been much better if it opened wider The hotel room was very warm &the bed was quite firm.

Staff were very friendly and helpful, great location as a base to explore Dublin. The view from our room was stunning and we loved the bathroom a real home from home.

The only suggestion is to look at the bedroom curtains as they didn’t align so let light as they don’t start at the end of the curtain pole. Maybe consider some black out curtains or provide eye masks. Disappointed there was no bottled water in the room but there was an abundance of toiletries.
