Our group had an excellent stay at the Samuel Hotel and its staff. The hotel is located in a quieter area of Dublin and offers an on-site cafe and restaurant. There’s also a nearby grocery store and several food options to enhance our stay. Overall, the hotel is very clean and the staff is helpful. We would definitely recommend it to anyone traveling to Dublin.

Very easy to use public transport as the tram station is just opposite. Just 4 stops to main city area. Very modern and clean hotel in a good, safe neighbourhood. Excellent breakfast with both hot and cold options in buffet style. A large spread of bread and savouries. Comfortable beds, Nice shower and AC

Very convenient for the 3Arena, good Luas connection.
Comfortable bed, good shower.
Breakfast would have been great if there had been a bit of flexibility.
I didn’t know the doors to the coffee dock & pastries etc would be locked on the dot of 10 o’clock!!

Hotel staff allowed us to keep luggage before check in and were friendly but…
they forgot to clean the room on day 3. Also did not replenish sugar and enough bath towels for the 3 of us. They did bring up towels and sugar when asked.
Location is right next to the tram station so very easy to do local travel from the hotel.

Every member of staff we encountered were fabulous. Nothing was too much trouble. Everything done with a smile. Can’t praise them highly enough.
Room wasn’t large, but was big enough.
A bit limited for drawers/storage.
Beautifully decorated.
Would stay there again in a heartbeat.
