"What an amazing place to stay. From the moment you pull up the beauty of the hotel and grounds will take your breath away. Check-in was a breeze. Front desk staff went out of their way to show us around and to our room. Too at the front door was super helpful with our bags and then with places to eat and pubs with live music. In the morning the breakfast was perfect. Service was fast and friendly. Sad that we only had one night there and didn’t get to enjoy the whole place "

### Clayton Hotel Dublin Airport Central

6/10 Okay

"Clean and comfortable room and bathroom. The lounge area isn’t great and no snacks available outside the restaurant. Not even a pack of peanuts. Only one person behind the bar who has to serve customers as well as collect glasses and clean tables so something suffers if the place has a few customers. "

### Clontarf Castle Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The room and entire hotel were clean and beautiful! The staff was absolutely superb. We ate some appetizers the night we arrived and coffee with scones the next morning. Honestly, due the the amazing staff we stayed on property for breakfast/scones and coffee as opposed to going out for it. 10/10 would stay again and HIGHLY RECOMMEND "
