Top Lough Tay Hotel Reviews

St. Helen's Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We were there for my cousins wedding. We had a beautiful family dinner there on the Thursday night and the wedding was on the Friday. Everything was lovely. Only issue I found the bar service very slow for both the Thursday night and the drinks prior to and during the wedding. But would highly recommend the hotel."

Maldron Hotel Newlands Cross

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely breakfast, beautiful hotel. Would stay again."

Ruby Molly Hotel Dublin by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"We loved the ambience as soon as we walked into the lobby. Check-in staff were so accommodating and friendly. The room fit all our needs. Everything was very clean. One suggestion: add a small fridge to the rooms."

The Plaza Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"."

citizenM Dublin St. Patrick's

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed multiple times, you know what you are getting. Big bed, quiet room and clean. Rooms are "cosy" but as I was travelling for work it was perfect as I didn't spend much time in the room. Bar area is good and staff are always great"

The Chancery Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We traveled in a group of three couples and had a comfortable and enjoyable two-night stay. Our rooms and bathrooms were lovely (as Americans we found the full-size beds to be too small but of high quality). The staff were wonderful and manager Anthony was very helpful in recommending restaurants and even securing a reservation on a Saturday night for six of us. We had an excellent meal. Thank you, sir. Excellent location: quiet yet very near significant sights. Too close to Dublin Castle whose heavily secured meetings cause walking back to the hotel to be confusing at times (some approaches are blocked)."

Hilton Dublin

10/10 Excellent

"Very relaxing stay - staff were friendly, food was great & rooms were very clean and comfy."

The Grafton Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The location was perfect, the staff was extremely helpful and polite, the hotel was clean and well maintained. No complaints, I will stay again. Very convenient for visiting kids in uni"

The Sandymount Hotel

8/10 Good

"We had a lovely stay at the Sandymount Hotel in Dublin! The hotel is charming, the staff were friendly and helpful, the room was clean and comfortable, and the breakfast was fantastic. The location was also great. It was quiet enough to relax but convenient for getting around Dublin. Our only real complaint was the elevator being out of order. After a long day of sightseeing, discovering that our room was basically at the top of a small mountain was not exactly the Irish adventure we had in mind!Lugging suitcases up the stairs was definitely a workout we hadn’t packed for. Thankfully a gracious porter carried mine. My husband, however, was left to fend for himself. That said, the wonderful staff and overall experience more than made up for the elevator situation. We really enjoyed our stay and would happily come back, assuming the elevator has decided to cooperate by then!"
