The rooms very exceptionally clean and comfortable. The shower was fantastic (great water pressure). It was an easy walk to anything in Dublin City centre. The staff were welcoming and friendly.

The rooms truly are tiny nests and a bit tight with two people but have everything you need and super cozy. We were incredibly impressed to be able to check in early after arriving on an early morning flight!

Excellent property. The hotel staff were supperb with any questions regarding advice on locations to see and local restaurants. The breakfast in itself is worth the stay. Stayed 6 nights for my honeymoon & I would definitely recommend. There was enough room for 2 and we didn't feel over crowded in the "Snug Nest" room.

Loved everything about this hotel and experience. The only thing to note is that if you are a couple sharing a room, the bed is up against a wall, meaning you have to climb over your partner to pee in the middle of the night. If you’re in your mid 40s, be prepared! We will definitely come back.
