Hotel Riu Plaza The Gresham Dublin

Hotel Riu Plaza The Gresham Dublin

10/10 Excellent
"Had another great stay at the Gresham Riu Plaza hotel. Love it. It's a beautifully we-maintained property just up from the Post Office on O'Connell street. The room was ready, service was prompt. Comfortable bed, towels were good, toiletries, room very clean and not noisy... good space, desk, internet, all good. Breakfast was good too and again service was very prompt. No waiting, and we had everything we needed. Just a mention that, although the room was recently refurbished, a couple of things were not perfect (toilet seat a bit wonky, shower controls hard to adjust the temperature) but there was nothing significant, and we didn't complain. We had a very pleasant comfortable stay and would certainly go there again."

Marlin Hotel Stephens Green

Marlin Hotel Stephens Green

8/10 Good
"Although the hotel looked nice, the staff was not very helpful and there was no customer service. At check in, with no other guests, we were told to use a machine. Over the next few days, everyone used the front desk. When we told the front desk that someone vacuumed in front of our room very early and woke us up, they nicely sent us a card that gave us a 3 hour late check out, and free coffee and pastries from the lobby. When we returned from breakfast, we were locked out of our room and even the elevators. After the keycard was updated, we got our luggage to leave. We went down to get the free items, but the lobby was empty and no one was working the coffee cart. Again we had to find an employee. So the room was fine, but there was no personality, or customer care. Personally I would not stay there again."

10/10 Excellent
"We always enjoy coming to the Ashling when in Dublin. The staff was super helpful, especially when this time traveling with an infant. We were able to be checked in early and room was always well taken care of. Close to the Dublin Zoo, Jameson Bow Street, and with easy access to Hueston Station and Luas, puts the Ashling in a great location. And the Iveagh Bar is a nice place to relax with a drink at the end of the day."
