Great location just next to the Ha’penny Bridge and across the river from Temple Bar. Excellent facilities: gym, bar, restaurant, coffee lounge, working space, 24-hour reception. Cosy, comfortable rooms equipped with a kitchenette and living area.

Rooms are not cleaned/ tidied for the duration of your stay, as it’s quasi-Airbnb. Also, you’ll need to bring your own body cream/ moisturiser, as this is not provided amongst the toiletries.

The bathroom was spacious, and the shower produced hot water almost immediately. We had a full set of appliances (fridge, stove, microwave/oven, dishwasher, and a washer/dryer combo). There were no steps to negotiate, the various spaces were secured by a card key for safety, and the staff was always very helpful. The location was very central and within walking distance to many places such as groceries, restaurants, department stores, and many historical sites. The coffee bar on site opened at 0630.

Using the modern appliances was not as intuitive as I expected. However, user instructions were provided via QCode or by simply asking the staff, who were very good at responding. I never got my clothes as dry as I liked; not sure if it was the washer/dryer itself or operator error.

Everything! The location can’t be beat, you’re in the middle of everything yet being on the quiet side of the river as well as the hotel’s design (set back from the street) ensures peace and quiet in the rooms. The clever room design incorporates everything you need while traveling, in such a compact space!! We had a 2-burner induction range, a washer-dryer, a fridge and a dishwasher as well as a comfortable bed and bathroom. Front desk personnel were always friendly and responsive. Being so close to the Lúas tram stop and Marks and Spencer supermarket was exceptionally convenient. The property was perfect for a 4-night stay.

Nothing! We had to get accustomed to the European technology but it’s so logical and efficient once you learn!

The apartment was really cozy, clean and comfortable. It had all we needed - a small table for working, a small sofa with a tv, and a very nicely equipped bathroom. It had proper heating/cooling system, dishwasher and washing machine. There were also tables for the machines, so we could use them. The kitchen had a microwave/oven and all the necessary appliances. The gym was small but suited our needs. All in all, our experience was wonderful!

The only thing that could be improved in the comfort of the bed. The mattress was really soft, so less comfortable for sleeping. The kitchen also did not have salt/pepper/oil, so we had to buy that.

Great location with decent sized rooms and good facilities. The staff is lovely. It’s also a very secure building, which I appreciated.

Room wasn’t cleaned well when we arrived. Soaps were empty and there were chips all over the floor. They did rectify it quickly, which was nice. They were very quick and responsive, which was great. Two other small notes… the room had wonky heating. It blew cool air down directly on the sofa, which wasn’t comfortable. Sitting in the sofa was like an ice box. Finally, I found the lighting too dim. Thankfully I was on holiday, but if it has been a work trip, the lighting in the room would have really sucked. Nonetheless, I would stay here again.

The room was really beautiful, clean and well-equipped. The room is really spacious and has everything what you would need to have a lovely vacation. The location is fantastic: close to everything but yet there was no noise inside even during the weekend. Staff was very kind and helpful. I would definitely recommend the hotel!

There is no breakfast at the hotel (although that was said so in booking.com). There is a decent cafe in the same premises, where you can buy breakfast. Our room was equipped with a small kitchen, so you could also do your own breakfast nicely :)

Loved the hotel, friendly staff, clean and spacious, and the decor is great. Coffee shop there is also lovely. Facilities are lovely, and you feel very safe. Spacious rooms, too! Great location as is really central, and most things are in walking distance, but you don't need to worry about noise from the bars.

The pillows were not very comfortable but we were staying a short time so it didn't matter too much. If we had planned to stay longer, it would have been an issue, but I reckon they would happily change them as the staff were very friendly. Taps in the bathroom in the apartment made a lot of noise and walls are thin, so when people are walking down the hallways outside your apartment, you can hear everything! If you are like me and sleep very lightly, it might wake you up on a Saturday night.

Hotel (or rather aparthotel) is close to pretty much anything you need in Dublin. Room had a kitchen and all the cooking utilities (if you're staying longer). AC works nicely and can be operated smoothly. Café in the lobby has croissants and coffee if you don't want to walk to some breakfast place in the morning (though there are many to choose from in the neighborhood). Bed soft and power sockets with a side table available.

Dusty room (don't even look under the bed). TV can be watched from the kitchen/sitting area (so not from bed). Surrounding streets get crowded and beware of rude youngsters, but that's normal for the location, being in the very middle of Dublin.

Ideal location directly in the city center but quiet, modern decoration, comfy bed and nice cafe downstairs.

Dark room with only a small window with smoked glass, and cold all weekend: when we arrived at midnight the window was open (in december!), and then we never succeeded in being warm in the room despite the heating system. So for the price we were a little disappointed compared to the very attractive pictures. And we received many frigthening emails about data pirating risks before arriving, indeed it is a reality but we think it was too much and did not put us in a very positive mood. But all in all it was nice, we would still recommend it!
