Clayton Hotel Dublin Airport
The hotel itself is fine for airport location. The staff are friendly and service goodt the hotel lacks entertainment! It was Christmas and besides background music that was it. I understand it gets people coming from the airport and going to the airport but never has some live music.

Marlin Hotel Stephens Green
Staff are very friendly and attentive. Rooms are small but cosy, the safe is small so can’t hold a laptop. Good coffee making facilities and complimentary bottles of water. The location is great and the bar etc is very nice.
