Arrived about 7pm on a sunny Tuesday evening as a group of 13 bikers. Check in was very efficient and the owner moved his car so we could all park together in the car park. The hotel has a lovely beer garden at the front looking out to sea. The rooms are a little dated but clean and a good... More

Don't spend all your money staying in Dublin. Stay in Dun Laoghaire instead. Our room had beautiful ocean view, comfortable beds and quiet. Dublin is a day trip, access by train, bus or taxi. Restaurant downstairs only has full Irish or cold cuts for breakfast (Who eats five different meats for breakfast?) but it's lovely for dinner.

Thank you for your recent review. We are delighted to hear you enjoyed your stay with us. Its so nice to see the area of Dun Laoghaire appreciated for what it is, close to the city centre to pop in and out as you wish but far enough away to enjoy a more relaxed atmosphere. With regard to breakfast there... More

Thirteen years ago this month, we attended dear friends' wedding in Dublin, and the day after the festivities, on an unusually bright Irish day, took the DART south, and ended up having a few drinks in a lovely sea-view garden in Dun Laoghaire. A few years later, my husband had a conference in Dublin, and I booked the Kingston over... More

Stayed 2 nights with a group of friends while attending a sports game at Aviva Stadium. The location is spectacular with a fantastic panorama around Dublin Bay from the front of the Hotel. We arrived early but reception was expecting us and the rooms were ready. The receptionist did offer to look after our luggage in the event taht the... More

Stayed for three nights in kingston in a newly refurbished room with a cracking view overlooking the sea. Room was a bit small with double and single bed in it but did the trick...bathroom was lovely with a great shower. Bit of a transition happening with old parts of the hotel getting refurbished but for the price it's perfectly acceptable.... More

Stayed here recently for a 2 night stay. Hotel was lovely - the downstairs was furnished nice and modern then the rooms were very old school. Beds very comfortable and we had a lovely family room overlooking dun laoghaire harbour which was delightful. Only downside at night we could here the dart (train) passing through every 15 minutes but as... More

We stayed at the Kingston to be close to the ferry for England. The views didn't disappoint from our comfortable harbour room. An added bonus to our stay was the restaurant downstairs which served amazing food anytime of the day,local seafood with an Italian influence.

Until recently I used to try and do business at this venue. At first things were fine but when you were at other hotels you realised that this hotel wasn't as good as it should be. One of the drawbacks is the lack of car parking. There is only 4 or 5 spaces available in a separate car park, i... More

Dear Sir Thank you for your recent review. As your main issue seems to be parking let me address that. At the Kingston we have the same problem facing many hotels in an urban setting and that is limited parking. This is compounded by the fact that we are located in a metre zone. We do however have a private... More
