Honestly I could not fault anything about this hotel . It was superb. Our daughter with severe additional needs had an operation at the Blackrock clinic and this location was ideal and everyone was so caring. In fact my son and his girlfriend stayed on for 2 additional nights

This is a really unique hotel that once was a 19th century school for girls. The property and neighborhood are just lovely. It is only a few blocks from a train, and easy to walk to main attractions. The room was spacious with a shower and tub. And the bed was very comfortable. We also loved having the convenience of the lovely Grand Stand Restaurant.

Pleasant
Location and exterior.
The exterior suggested a hotel with presence; I was disappointed - there was nothing characterful or personable about it. I felt the one night was overpriced, although accept that it was Marathon weekend and I did not know that when I booked. That caused difficulties regarding road closures [nothing to do with the hotel] and can only presume that was why there was a discount for the parking charge for which I was grateful. The complimentary tea in our bedroom was three different teabags (apart from the flavoured teas) so you could not have the same tea twice - weird.
