The gardens were lovely but too small. The food was great The history.... when we found it. More could be made of history and connections such as Brian Boru, and spending a night in a Castle
A pool would be great, and maybe a small spa. quite expensive contemporary art

We chose this hotel because of its history and location close to the airport. It is in an exurb of Dublin, near the water. Its history of the Battle of Clontarf is interesting and the old part of the hotel is interesting. Most of the rooms are in a modern addition, there are a few rooms in the castle part but the were not available for our stay. In the end, it felt like any other hotel once we were in the room. Breakfast was a pretty good buffet, and the location was in the old part of the hotel. It did not feel that close to Dublin center, and would require a ride to get in to town. It did feel like it was located where the regular Dubliners live, in the middle of a nice residential neighborhood. The public spaces are well decorated, the rooms are just regular hotel rooms. Stay here if you are like us and have an early flight the next day
I wish there had been more tie in to the history in the rooms.

I had high expectations that were not matched. Enjoyed AC for the 1st time! Delicious breakfast
Not close to much but shoreline rd & park. I picked the place cause of location by Bram Stroker boyhood home. Loooong walk! Not much to see. And hardly any mentions/signs/statues/plaque of Bram.

Good feeling in the hotel. The food I had was very good. Staff always kind, professional and helpful.
Preferred a comfortable place to sit outside and read. It was very expensive for one person. I wish we could have had three in a room with two double beds.

Everything from the customer service, room, food and drinks was excellent!! definitely exceeded our expectations.
We wanted to sit outside with a drink in the evening. It would’ve been nice if the patio lights were on.
