The staff could've been friendlier when we arrived. They seemed distracted. The hotel in general was disappointing to be honest, very expensive given breakfast wasn't included. The hotel itself felt a little tired.

Two nights older couple.
The rooms seemed newly refurbished, except for one bed, which made noises when sat on, or turning over. Nice bedding and plenty of pillows.The TV system was minimal (not connected to internet so couldn't use smart TV features or apps). The room was spotless, as was the bathroom. The tub/shower combination could use some wall installed hand holds for those of us that are older and stiffer to increase safety. Rain showerhead was nice. Good hot water flow. We didn't avail of the restaurant or bar.

Will stay again when in the area
Lovely staff. Pub was nice and had lots of seating. Seafood chowder for dinner was excellent. The room was big and had an ocean view and a lovely seating area looking out to it. Very comfortable bed.Only one tiny complaint. The toilet is jammed right up against the bathroom radiator so its difficult to sit on it properly as the radiator digs into your left leg. Other than that its perfect.

Very nice room except the shower didn’t drain so you were standing ankle deep in water. Staff was very nice. It was very expensive for what it was.

No air conditioning so left window open. So noisy I had to close window and cook so didn’t sleep. Also so noisy in the hallways until nearly 3 am had to turn bathroom fan on to try to drown out the noise. Tough last night in Ireland.

A little run down on the outside, but an unbeatable location right across from the beach. The room was in Italy very clean, though the carpet could be replaced (bumpy in spots). Staff seemed friendly and helpful but the during housekeeping service they only made the bed, garbage and folded towels- nothing was wiped down or cleaned. Overall, I’d definitely choose it again because the bus to Dublin was a 1 minute walk and the view is amazing.

Staff were very friendly and polite. Beautiful view of the ocean. The rooms were typical size, however are in need of updating. Carpet worn in the hallways and in the rooms, needs new paint, basically a cosmetic uplift.

Great location nice size room. Bathroom a little outdated and cleanliness overall was lacking a bit. Floors did not look like they had been vacuumed properly. View from room was amazing and best breakfast I have had in a long time for a very reasonable cost

This is the dream hotel. Like when you’re a kid and you stay in a hotel and the nostalgia tinged memories are of a glamorous seaside location - this is it. Absolutely gorgeous, amazing comfortable stay. UNBELIEVABLY AMAZING bathtub. This hotel is out of a dream. Perfect location for swimming in the sea across the road, then a beautiful walk down the coastal path to Malahide for tea. This hotel smells lovely, so clean, lovely comfy beds, big room. There’s no fridge if that’s something you need but many places don’t. Great location for getting to the port the next day. Just that perfect stay for our last night in Ireland, couldn’t be more grateful. My only complaint is not staying longer!! Hope to be back!
