Dublin Half Marathon Stay

A lovely 2 night stay as I was running the Dublin half marathon. The hotel was an ideal location close to the finish line. The facilities were great, a very high standard, and even though there was work taking place at the hotel, it was not disruptive at all. A late check out was also arranged to help with post run showering. I would 100% stay here on my next trip to Dublin.

A bit pricier than other hotels in the area, but super convenient and it’s right in the middle of downtown. So, you can’t go wrong picking this one.

We had a lovely time at this hotel. The only thing I would have liked better about this place is better water pressure in the shower and maybe adding a mini fridge and microwave. Otherwise lovely place and very nice staff!
