The hotel is located in an area where embassies are located so logically it is upmarket. It is a 20 minutes walk from Grafton Street, the Main Street where you can find stores of clothing and some well known eateries. Another 5 minutes of walk will take you to Trinity College, a leading college in Ireland, that can boast of greats like Jonathan Swift.

The hotel itself is good with an impressive reception. You are greeted by helpful staff who in all probability be able to assist you to your satisfaction. The rooms are quiet with wide windows that allow light to stream in. There is no air conditioning and the heating can't be turned on from the room itself. One wonders why not. Penny wise pound foolish?

If one had to nitpick, I would have preferred brighter lights especially in the washroom since it assists in shaving. But that is a personal preference. Unfortunately, the finish of the washroom is not at par with the rest of the infrastructure.

Still it's a good hotel with a bar to boot!!
