Stayed here for two nights with my partner for a special anniversary. Reception staff could be more helpful. Service for meal very slow, food just ok and expensive. Bar staff were nice. Lovely views. Rooms are small. Not great for the price we paid. more

It was a gorgeous summer day in Dublin and our room looked out over the bay towards Howth. Stunning. The staff were courteous and the room was clean. We had a tiny baby, but cots and assistance were available. A bigger room was offered, but it overlooked the car park. There was live music and the bar was humming at... more

We stayed here for one night as we were going to a concert in Malahide castle. It's a pretty average hotel, I thought it was a bit on the expensive side at about 115euro per night. I had a look at their website and it looks like the price has gone down since however. If I was going to a... more

The Hotel breakfast was "average" and the service very poor. The Views from the Hotel are its best Feature.Unfortunately the Outdoor Patio Area is very Grubby,and is badly... more

Was there for a wedding & stayed the night. The room was large & well furnished but had some pretty basic problems. The lead for the small television did not reach the socket. There was not one coathanger to hang up clothes. The toilet had problems & didn't always flush. Also, the rooms (especially bathroom) were not sparkling. They weren't... more

A very nice hotel on the outside. We stayed in the new wing and the rooms are fairly modern, very B&B style, all with very pretty views of the North Sea just steps from the back deck. The staff was very accomodating and the downstairs lounge was nicely done with live music every night. They have a free shutttle to... more
