Clarion Hotel IFSC/Spencer Hotel Reviews

Stayed there a few times, modern design of rooms, direct access to the gym and swimming pool, good breakfast. Reliable and solid choice.

Decent hotel with great service and excellent staff

Very clean and prestigious hotel. Great service at check in and check out and throughout my stay. Room was beautiful and spacious. Very comfy bed and pillows. All amenities in the room you could ask for. Would go back again definitely

the hotel is nice and the staff very friendly. it's well located and nice amenities

Actually good apartment had there not been any booking problems

I love this hotel and have stayed several times. It's modern and stylish and very comfortable. The breakfast is excellent and the restaurant is good. I enjoy the walks along River Liffey. I recommend strongly this hotel.

Lovely prosecco cocktails.. great for a post concert drink!

i have a reservation with the hotel to celebrate my anniversary and choose Spencer hotel due to its location and reputation and was disapointed from what i actually heard
due to personal reason's i wanted to only amend my check out date as i have to leave earlier then expected , called the hotel and was surprised that they were unable to change my checkout date in order for them to grantee the payment .
Im an active traveler and hotel stayer , this was surprising that they rejected the idea and haven't even given an alternative solution
THANK YOU

The hotel was nice and clean, the staff was very nice and the food was good.

I loved everything about this hotel, room ,lobby, bar, staff.

Nice location, good breakfast, helpful personnel. A bit of refreshing of the rooms will certainly not hurt.

Quite an unusual architecture; 1950s Soviet is about right, everything plain and without embellishments.
However the staff and the service they provided was totally unSoviet. They're so dedicated to caring for their guests you'll want for nothing.
This was my second visit and won't be my last.

I had chance to stay in Spencer Hotel while my trip to Dublin for Google Advertiser Summit. I really liked the hotel - rooms, staff, breakfast, room service and more. I liked everything about this hotel and enjoyed my stay.

It's never to packed and the staff are all friendly

Great Location, Service was pleasant but we were meant to check in at 3pm arrived after a show about 6.30pm and our room still wasn't ready bit of a joke. but the room itself was lovely and the balcony helped ease the pain of that 30min wait on the room

Nice hotel. Was here for a presentation and they had a good conference room

On river front relaxed yet vibrant foyer good coffee

I would highly recommend The Spencer Hotel, great service, very helpful staff, fabulous food and great location.

Came for a coffee, very nice. Decor is lovely, staff very friendly.

I've had a pretty comfortable number with everything needed, including alarm clock with USB charger and a few EU plugs. The service and breakfast were also quite good, so I'd stay here next time as well

Great hotel and very central. To be reached by bus shuttle from the airport within about 20 minutes (return ticket for 12 per person to buy) and right outside the door; The tram also only about 3 minutes walk away. Many breakfast and shopping options and pubs on the doorstep. The hotel is from 2001; It makes a very neat and fine, cozy impression, and the staff - from the front desk to the cleaning staff - is extremely friendly and helpful. Even the Health Club, which you may use as guests and is directly accessible by elevator, is very well equipped (you know from other hotels, where then only an old, broken ergometer dusty in the corner is) in both the dumbbell and Machine and endurance area. Here I will want to live with my partner again and again when we are in Dublin!

Very nice boutique hotel with very helpful front desk people. Rooms a bit on the small size.
The continental breakfast was by far the best I have ever seen, and offers a huge selection of fruits, meats hot and cold, and was very impressed that everyone on the staff was on hand during busy time at breakfast. They did a great job!
The Japanese restaurant was ok and even though I had asked for no mushrooms my dish did have them. Only had lunch.
Laundry service was excellent even though I had to call to inquire where my order was. Very close to Luas stop.

Right in the core of Dublin, very clean, parking overnight is a bit pricey

Very pricey drinks and extremely dirty and messy toilets in public area

Lovely hotel, great location overlooking the river. Just around the corner from the bus station which was really handy for my overnight stay from Belfast. The staff were really friendly and helpful..couldn't fault their customer service. All in all a great experience. I will definitely return, hopefully for longer next time :)

Soundproofing problem on road side rooms
The rooms are well equipped the bathroom is nickel

The most expensive cup of, what the waiter told me was, coffee.

I stayed for 3 nights at this hotel.
Location not bad, several restaurants around and possibility to take a walk along the river. Noisy though.

Room: basic but clean. Traditional irish experience i.e. small bed with rock hard pillows. Can open a small window to get fresh air. Desk small and not particularly comfortable for work.

Breakfast: ok. Could get an overcooked omelette, fruits are good though sometimes poorly sliced.

We had a meeting room too. Lunch served was awful but otherwise ok.

Bottom line: not a horrible experience but nothing that would make me want to pick this property for my next stay.

Well located modern hotel, tram Lane on the side, aprox 15 - 20 minutes walk to city centre

Booked a room, had a reservation and confirmation. When we arrived they let us know they overbooked and they had no rooms left. They also did this to another couple traveling with us. I wouldn t reccommend to anyone .

Very good hotel. Excellent breakfast and above all its location is matchless

Good service, clean quiet rooms, great location, gym and pool

The rooms meals, the spacious bathroom, comfortable closet and nespresso, is a bit far from the city center

Absolutely superb service and food. Most welcoming environment we came across in our short stay in Dublin.

Well placed with parking available but not on site although to be fair it's not far of a walk. Nice sized rooms with a great view.

Went to meer a friend and have a chat in tje lobby. It was very loud

Booked here for one night stay on Sat 11th Feb 2017 with my Wife. I booked the Deluxe King Room and breakfast was included (in the 269 rate).This was our first time staying at the hotel as usually we stay in another very popular 5 star hotel in Dublin City Centre. We wanted to experience a different hotel for this trip-how wrong were we!!
On arrival to our room (after a trek outside from the underground car park that costs 18 to the actual hotel) which I would describe as "average" we left and spent the afternoon in the City.
We returned to the Hotel at 530pm and decided to enjoy a cocktail from the hotel bar. 20mins later the drinks arrived from a bar that was very quiet after having needed to order twice!!
The biggest disappointment was breakfast on Sunday morning.....I think "cattle market" is the most appropriate description. Lack of staff no clean tables and requests for both orange justice and hot food wasn't a great experience. 10am at the weekend surely the hotel should realise this is a peak time for people eating breakfast?? Obviously not.....
In summary a very overpriced average Hotel trying to be something that it never will be in Dublin. Would not reccomend and certainly will never stay here again.

Brought my mother here for a few days . The staff and service has been brilliant. Rooms spacious and clean . Breakfast ,well you could not fault it. Would recommend to anyone .
We check out tomorrow and hotel closes for Xmas and know all the staff appreciate the time off given by the owners.
Well done all and wish you every success in 2019

Awful customer service. Not helpful and unapproachable. Too expensive.

Good location with a Airlink shuttle right outside the front door. It was nice to have a normal shower after a week of Airbnbs.

The hotel was clean, beds really comfortable and rooms were great. The staff were very friendly and nothing was too much for them. Great location with excellent facilities surrounding the hotel.

the clarion is really nice the staff are more than helpful. and you get alot more than the you pay for with your room.

Stopped here for a meal and drinks before a concert in the 3 Arena..... food and drink were fine but service is awful with sullen waiting staff and long long wait for drinks with no one even providing apologies for long wait. Had to enquire 4 times for drinks....... and it wasn't even that busy!!!!! Avoid......

Perfect place, near 3arena, has swimming pool, sauna, restaurant

Really nice hotel in Dublin City Centre. Great hotel for concerts and only a 10-15 min walk to the city centre.

Lovely room, friendly staff and close to the river.

Excellent customer service and rooms were very clean and comfortable

Gourgess rooms lovely welcoming staff food was excellent great gin menu

It is an average hotel. I rate it 2 star. Normal routine rooms with no welcome dring or fruits. Even staff on reception was feeling very busy with 4 customers. Not worth a money.

Nice hotel pool very small and, like the gym area, very crowded with non-hotel guests

Food is reasonably OK but very overpriced for a fusion menu.

Lovely hotel with a gym. The rooms are cosy and have everything you need! The Wi-fi works very well. They also have a great breakfast buffet. The staff is friendly. The bar is also very lively even though service here can be a tad slow.

Brilliant stay here. Clean and comfortable. Great pool. Friendly staff. Beautiful food.

We had lunch in the lounge. It was very comfortable and the food was good, and good value. However it was open to the reception area which was extremely noisy.

Good location for a business event. Food (BBQ) was good, but nothing extraordinary. The meeting rooms are a bit boring in my opinion.

Was really great for the weekend..lovely atmosphere..well looked after by the staff.affordable price

comfy beds, convenient location, nice breakfast! can't grumble, overall a great experience

Stopped in to meet people, seems like a very nice hotel. Can't comment on the rooms however the lounge had friendly staff, good selection of beers on tap and decent food.

Great gym and pool, jacuzzi did not work for more than two weeks

Lovely place to stay in the city area x

Comfortable stay, reasonable price and friendly staff..

Great food and a very comfortable rooms and great cocktails.

Excellent place with a good atmofera. the food a little expensive in comparison to the prices of the hotels around,
