Clayton Hotel Dublin Airport Central

10/10 Excellent
"We always stay here for convenience as it is right by the airport. You can walk to the airport and catch a bus into Dublin for dinner/pubs. It’s a nice way to wind down a trip. The hotel also has a bar and decent restaurant, which is another option. There is a hotel shuttle bus to take you and your luggage to the airport in the morning. It is worth staying here just for the convenience. You can also walk from the rental car drop off lot to the hotel in about 15 minutes."

"Check-in at the front desk was easy. Our room was ready. We had a good meal at the bar. All of the staff we encountered were friendly and happy. Our room was huge. The bathroom didn't have washcloths but since many European hotels (big & small) do not have them, I always bring a few from home. As well as bar soap. The only thing we didn't like was that when we entered the room for the first time, the window was open. The room temperature was cold for an October day. We tried adjusting the radiator but it didn't get much warmer in the room. We were only staying the one night and flying home in the morning so we didn't ask for help. We declined taking the hotel shuttle to the airport because we would rather take a taxi. The hotel arranged to have a taxi for us which was prompt in the morning. The proximity to the airport was good. There is another Clayton hotel near the airport so don't get them confused. In fact, the hotel sent a message to me prior to arriving in Ireland to let us know their exact address. I would recommend this hotel."

Ashling Hotel Dublin

Ashling Hotel Dublin

10/10 Excellent
"We always enjoy coming to the Ashling when in Dublin. The staff was super helpful, especially when this time traveling with an infant. We were able to be checked in early and room was always well taken care of. Close to the Dublin Zoo, Jameson Bow Street, and with easy access to Hueston Station and Luas, puts the Ashling in a great location. And the Iveagh Bar is a nice place to relax with a drink at the end of the day."
