Clayton Hotel Dublin Airport

Clayton Hotel Dublin Airport

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel is beautful! Clean areas, lovely lounge , coffee , snacks on entry. Room and beds are comfortable . Only thing is that if you are on the first floor , there is an elevator to go up but then you still have a short flight of stairs to manage to get to your room. Inconvenient if you have a lot of heavy luggage to manage. There is a convenient store for snacks/gas, fast food . Nothing else is around . It will cost about 26€ to get to downtown"

"This resort was very nice and offered two very good dining/bar options. The golf course provided a quality, true links course experience and being seaside enhanced the whole Irish coast ambience. We needed help getting the thermostat and heat/cooling right in our room but their maintenance man got to our room right away. I can confidently recommend this property to travelers, especially golfers."

10/10 Excellent
"We stayed in the traditional double room with king bed and ensuite for our last night in Ireland. We were warmly greeted by Tiia who showed us our room and the amenities in the kitchen area. She was a pleasure to chat with and full of helpful suggestions, The room was clean, cozy, quiet with a comfy bed and nice shower. It is a short walk to the Malahide castle and it's lovely gardens and trails. It is also a short 10-15 minute walk into the village in which we enjoyed a nice dinner at the Greedy Goose. We would definitely stay here again on our way out of town. So much better than an airport hotel."

10/10 Excellent
"Location Location Location! Absolutely perfect spot as home base. Stunning cliffs, great seafood, gracious town and we'll definitely return many times‐‐ an absolute haven away from the congestion. We left and stayed in Dublin city center before flying on to Porto a few days later, and we are far happier for having stayed here first!Off peak, if you're up before 8am or 9am, bring your own coffee machine & coffee. Tea kettle, instant coffee & tea bags provided in room. Little is open before 7.30, and you're on your own till 8 or 9am for coffee. Functionality-- there are two wall plugs, so charging your laptops & devices overnight can be a challenge. There are no hooks, and little if any shelf space, available in the room, so bring a travel caddy for all bathroom essentials. No hooks for towels or jackets/coats. There is a small closet but no shelf or drawers otherwise for clothes, books, etc. Finally, plan a quick tesco trip, only about 500 meters, for basic items like an extra bath & hand towel."
