Clontarf Castle Hotel
Clean room, attentive staff, great food and service at restaurants. The castle itself was amazing, great artwork and history. The location is about 3 miles outside of Dublin center circle. Which is not far but due to Dublins layout plan on 30 minute commute to get to popular pubs, shopping and cathedrals. ...

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.
