Clayton Hotel Dublin Airport
Great hotel very close to the airport One issue was when we landed at 11:30 PM. We had to wait in the wind and cold (40 degrees f) for about 20 minutes. I wish the bus had been parked at the airport rather than the hotel so we could have been more comfortable

Hotel Riu Plaza The Gresham Dublin
The breakfast was amazing! Plenty of choice for everyone. The room was clean and tidy. The only problem was that the walls are quite thin. I could clearly hear next door room’s T.V until midnight . However, I would stay here again.
