the gibson hotel Reviews

Just visiting meeting friends very nice staff very pleasant enjoyed my brief time here

Average hotel, buffet style breakfast was terrible, not sure where the good reviews came from. All food was cold. Staff service in hotel was excellent

There is a lot of construction happening in the area so be prepared for noise early in the morning if you have a room facing it

Contemporary, modern hotel with reasonably sized rooms and generous bathrooms. Free, fast, unlimited wifi is a big big plus; slightly inconvenient location and mystery stains on the carpet are minuses. Will definitely return though.

Great hotel, ideal for a visit to the arena. Very nice service. The breakfast was unfortunately only medium and too expensive. But otherwise a good hotel.

Was fine. Wake up call was late. Couldn't contact room service for a while. Location not ideal. Otherwise was perfectly fine.

Excellent, well appointed, colorful hotel, and great value when booking ahead of time

Beautiful rooms. Very reasonable for the heart of Dublin. Breakfast wasnt great a bit cold but I think it was just at the time that I went. Would defo go back.

Lovely hotel a little expensive but that's dublin 4 you .

Great staff, and a surprisingly good pint (or in my case 3) of Guinness

Not a fan of the hipster minimalist vibe with signs pointing out they cleaned under the bed and other oddness. The tv didn't work, carpet was stained, and the walls were marred with scratches and marks. The place was a bit beat up.

Nice location at the port of Dublin and still close to the city.
And if you want to visit a musical, it is not far to the 3Arena, which is directly opposite the hotel.

Stay here regularly because of location very helpful and friendly staff. Very positive experience and would highly recommend.

Great rooms with a view of the city from the 6th floor. Great food and friendly staff. 5 stars all the way

I spent a couple of nights in the Gibson Hotel. It is in a renovated area of the city just in front of the 3 Arena. I really enjoyed the staying, the room was very clean and spacious. The breakfast was very good. The staff was very polite and professional. Super suggested!

Lovely rooms, staff very friendly, accessible for the 03 Arena. Has nice bars and restaurant.

Impresses so far. Room is nice and big and it's right there for going to a gig in the 3arena

Room is nice, a couple of small things make it look worn. Marks on the wall, there's also a piece of skirting board damaged in the bathroom. It's in an ideal location for the three arena. Bit of a walk to town but has access to the Luas.

Very clean and comfortable. The service was efficient and friendly. The breakfast was great!

I went here with my workplace for the summer "barbeque". You don't actually see any cooking - the food is just laid out buffet style. At 28 per head, it's the most expensive burger I've ever had... food was ok, but nothing special. Staff were pleasant and bar area is nice. Very poor value for money.

Average hotel out of downtown Dublin. This hotel is very pretty and has a lot going for it. But where it falls short is that it s way out of the city. You go have the train right outside the hotel which is nice and allows you to travel into the city centre in 10 minutes. You will find nothing in this area that isn t in the hotel itself. The restaurant is vegetarian friendly and the hotel is definitely gay friendly.

Stayed last night the Gibson is a beautiful hotel and the staff are amazing they go above and beyond. The only issue I had was sour milk in the room for tea and only noticed after drinking and was sick. Minor issue could happen to anyone.
Thank you to the staff for a wonderful experience!

Very good hotel I do not put 5 stars pq is a bit out of the center

My favorite Hotel in Ireland. Worth the money for a treat

Service was good but food is mediocre at best. Really not worth the money. Looks much more appealing on TV.... which btw is all completely staged from the staff to the background diners. I wouldn't eat there again.

Helpful and friendly staff, good food, clean and nice rooms. Close to the airport bus and close to the local train ...

Great rooms ... excellent and plentiful breakfast buffet.
Great hotel ... Everything is within walking distance. Public transport right outside the front door

Can't fault the quality of the room. One of the nicest beds I have ever slept in. Breakfast is simply a feast as the options are endless and the produce is fresh. Staff treat you like royalty and they deserve every praise.

Amazing venue with fantastic food drink and scenery. The servers that serviced both myself and my friend today were only amazing and only too happy to present us both with amazing food and drinks. Would highly recommend visiting them.

Everything about the hotel was lovely. As I said in a previous review Claire who waited on our table at dinner went above & beyond to make our dining experience excellent. Breakfast was a different matter however. Breakfast service was poor. I asked twice to have tea served. Then I had to ask again for milk. We weren't late for breakfast but they had run out of tomatoes mushrooms & the coffee machine seemed to be put of order. Pity as we enjoyed our stay otherwise

Beautiful hotel inside, a few arty quirks, which give it needed character without being pretentious.

To be honest we have stayed here before and it was fantastic. Infact flawless. I have never completed one of these surveys until now. I won t ramble, but main restaurant was closed due to filming in the hotel. They did make other arrangements for guest. If they had of included this detail via email I could have made other arrangements.
Room was very clean and staff just alright. The receptionist upon leaving was either having a bad day which is ok as we are all human or completely not interested in us which I think was the real reason. I don t expect people to jump up and down, but a good morning, how was your stay etc... would have been nice. I think a great hotel that was let down by management and not informing guest prior to arrival about disruptions. I hope this helps going forward for your business.

Decent hotel . Nice rooms . Nice food . relatively close 5o the city .hop on the luas and in within 10mins

Stayed in the Gibson for a Friday overnight on a fantastic Take the Break offer and the staff who are working through such a difficult period made our stay worthy of the highest review from check in to check out. Well done to the Gibson and to the staff who ultimately determine how guests review their stay. A wonderful experience. Thank you.

I had a delightful stay at this wonderful eco hotel! It has amazing design, which gives you opportunity to take unforgettable pictures for a longlasting memories. I had a direct view onto hotel atrium. Unforgettable! However, the hotel is situated 3 km far from the city centre (approximately 30 minutes of walking).
It was a big surprise for me to find tea bags, instant coffee, sugar, cups, an iron, an ironing board and a kettle in the closet. Also, at reception you can buy an adaptor (1 for 5 EUR).

What's there to like.tatty interior,untidy bar,no restaurant availability unless a resident.Will not return anytime soon.

Although the food looked amazing, I can not say the same for the taste. It was extremely bland, for a thai green curry there was no flavour or spice to it and the chicken was very dry. I was very disappointed with the food.

I couldn't be happier with my stay here. Our room was beautiful, well equipped and excellently decorated. The staff went to a lot of trouble with extra cleaning and safety measures due to the threat of coronavirus. The food and drink was delicious, reasonably priced, with a well thought out menu and presented impeccably. The best feature of this hotel is the staff. Every staff member I interacted with was helpful and friendly, and as welcoming as if I were a guest in their own home. Maja on front desk was especially helpful and kind. I'll be staying here again.

Fabulous hotel but the bar area is way too small. It's like they could do with some cozy seating instead of restaurant layout but maybe that's me. Avoid on concert days

Rooms very comfortable, breakfast had lots of choice but the bar staff left the hotels hygiene standards down

Fantastic location close to airport and not far from town. Stylish rooms and decor and the food and service was great.

Great location for the 3 arena, nice rooms and decent food.

Great hotel, lovely rooms with nice showers and hair dryers. 6th floor rooms have great balconies that you will want to use. Bar are is spacious with nice outdoor seating, but not the most expert bartenders (but very nice).

I liked it for being so close to the O2 arena and they serve great food.
But when they get busy after a concert...the staff can hardly cope with it.

Located in the middle of the industrialize city. Standing beside the city port and some ruined buildings, but the building can be a beauty on its own. The glass walled elevator and indoor garden are for keeps! Strategically located as well in front of a train station and an event place (3Arena) and a newly opened mall (Point Village) with a 3D theater (Odeon).

Friendly service and quality food for breakfast. Large enough rooms for a week .

Just had lunch in the Hemi Bar. Club sandwich was extra filling and nice soup. Staff were extra friendly. Well worth a detour towards the Point Village, especially if in advance of a show at the 3Arena.

Arrived at the hotel at 4pm, told the room would not be ready for at least another half an hour (check in 3pm), and sent back on our way. For the price paid this is a disgraceful way of treating your customers. The room itself, a deluxe room, was fantastic, dinner was good and breakfast was very good. But the lack of common courtesy was a very disappointing start to a night away which cost almost 300eur

Really relaxed start to a day out at the 3arena with our dad

Food was nice, service was quick when bringing out food but took 20mins to get someone's attention to pay.
Reasonably prices.

great stay in The Gibson Hotel for our visit to the 3Arena to see Elbow.
Great Room Great Gig and Great Breakfast

Very nice new hotel, but very overpriced. Apart from fantastic shower not much to separate the room from a Premier Inn room.
Nice bar, food OK.

Convenient location to get into the center of Dublin and easy access to the docks as well. Little pricey for the amenities but it was clean. The included wifi was insufficient for any sort of decent quality Skype video call.

We stayed here as we were seeing a concert at 3 arena. We couldnt fault the hotel at all, it was a lovely clean spacious room, however, the staff at reception clearly need more training. First we were given the wrong room and when we addressed this the lady seemed a little put out, then later on the second day our swipe card wouldnt let us in.the lift or room as it had been.put on.the records that we had left ???? The breakfast was of high quality and Declan that served us is a credit to the hotel, warm funny and attentive. We did enjoy our stay

Food was terrible and staff on reception weren't very friendly doesn't rate a four star

Nice hotel only here for coffee while waiting for concert traffic to clear, staff helpful

I stayed once 2 nights and once one night, loved it very much. Great location, very good service and loved the breakfast!

Spacious and clean room, large bathroom. Peaceful quiet environment for sleeping. Tram in front of the hotel and within 10 minutes in the Center. Did not eat in the hotel, therefore no opinion on this.
Had dinner outside in the center of Dublin in the morning and evening.
There are dining options next to the hotel.

Didn't stay but just popped into the bar while waiting for show at the point depot. Bar was packed but good service!

Excellent hotel. Great and easy access from the airport. Fantastic shower. Comfortable bed. Really high quality room service meal. Would definitely recommend

Nice clean hotel at the end of a metro line and very handy for the stadium for concerts.
Views are not much however. Excellant eateries just outside if you need a break from the hotel restuarant or run out of money!

Good place and location for Christmas Party for a medium group

Weird hotel. Handy for pre concert drinks. Poor bar

I booked a room and paid for it upfront for a night in oct 2020 as a surprise . i then found out another hotel had been booked for a few days as a surprise for me. I rang the gibson and was talking to a lovely member of staff called fatima. I had to ring back the next day to talk to soneone in bookings to be told they wouldnt cancel. Now i can understand if my booking was in a day or to and them not to cancel but ten months away its not as if they wouldnt be able to let room for that night. So disappointed

Great location friendly staff awesome food no complaints.....

Amazing, just amazing, reason enough to visit Dublin

Very spacious and stylish room with lovely view outside...can get food deliver to the room at any time of night lovely place and staff were amazing

Great service, comfortable beds and a great shower.

Ideal location for attending gigs at the 3 Arena. Friendly staff. Clean rooms. Great view of the dock area from the balcony
