	Date of Stay: January, 2009
On arrival there was no assistance with our baggage. The foyer was busy and it was not apparent where the reception to check in was. The bars were very busy during our stay mainly with non-residents. It is one of the in places to be seen. The public rooms are very young and very noisy.The deluxe room we had was not up to the standard of deluxe rooms at similar 5 star hotels in Dublin.

	Date of Stay: June, 2009
Hotel, staff and location. Our room was a bit small. This hotel lives up to its reputation. The renovation is gorgeous, the staff are extremely friendly and helpful and the location is perfect.

	Date of Stay: February, 2009
Top Class Hotel - had a wonderful time

Great atmosphere in the hotel bars

	Date of Stay: June, 2009
The front-desk staff were very professional and helpful in meeting all of our needs.

	Date of Stay: December, 2008
Absolutely wonderful hotel staffed by a wonderful enthusiastic and friendly team in every department from reception to restaurant. Thoroughly enjoyable stay with not an iota with which one could quibble. Unmmissable if you enjoy attentive and unobtrusive service in a truly lovely relaxing oasis of tranquility in the centre of the city.

	Date of Stay: November, 2008
This was a fabulous hotel. Staff were extremely friendly and took interest in detail. We got upgraded to Penthouse which was pure luxury. The bar area was inviting and friendly. Beautiful spa/pool area. Good location for shops and tourist attractions.

	Date of Stay: June, 2009
Beautiful, elegant facility close to town & activities but quiet location. No parking facility on sight, expensive to have hotel park car at a location close to hotel. The bed was one of the most comfortable ones we have ever had at a hotel. The room was tastefully decorated as was the entire hotel. The bar was a lovely place for a drink at day's end. Our stay there was perfect!

Date of Stay: June, 2009

It was in a very good location. Accessible to everywhere, clean and elegant looking in the general area, friendly employees. Room was very small, no chest of drawers or dresser for clothing, bathroom was extremely small except the large shower. OverallI liked the hotel very much it is the Priceline that I have problem with since there is no options available to select the room type or bedding type or size of the room.

	Date of Stay: June, 2009
Very clean. Small room.

	Date of Stay: June, 2009
I enjoyed staying in a historical hotel. Enjoyable stay and I would come again as this hotel has everything I needed.

	Date of Stay: June, 2009
We liked everything about this hotel. Outstanding location. Super comfortable beds. Bathroom was large with modern amenities. Staff was very attentive. Everything is within walking distance.

	Date of Stay: June, 2009
Beautiful & grand architecture. Impeccable customer service. Superb location. Nothing I didn't like - honestly. The hotel is as beautiful and grand as it's pictures. The location was superb. But, mostly I was very impressed with their customer service - absolutely outstanding. We were on a long trip, and it was great to call this place home for a couple of nights.

Date of Stay: May, 2009

Fabulous location and beautiful lobby! When I first arrived, I was given a very small room with one queen bed. I asked to be moved to another room, because the queen room is really only sufficient for a solo traveler. After the second night, we were finally moved to a much larger king room, and it was fabulous! The staff was very accommodating and service-oriented. The only thing I recommend that this hotel change is the cost of the internet - 20 Euro per day is highway robbery!

	Date of Stay: May, 2009
Perfect location, grand old hotel. Great bars.

	Date of Stay: May, 2009
Location. Mediocre front desk service.

Date of Stay: May, 2009

The place is a classically lovely old hotel. It is well kept up. The staff is attentive and helpful. Their restaurants are very overpriced, especially the breakfast buffet. Internet and other extras are overpriced. The only free amenity is ice. It's a great hotel. Very comfortable. Great location. But for the price, you'd expect to have, at least, complimentary in-room internet. Many other very nice hotels in Dublin provide that. I tried the Full Irish Breakfast buffet, even though it cost something like 59 euro for one, only to find the next day that I could get something just as grand two blocks way at a couple of different restaurants for between 9 & 13 euro. Somehow, being nickeled and dimmed in such an venerable (and expensive) hotel diminished it's stature to me. Perhaps that's the Renaissance way.

	Date of Stay: May, 2009
The location. Staff attentiveness. Nice place with great location and a lot of history but needs to be a little more less stuffy and family friendly.

	Date of Stay: May, 2009
Prime location, spotless conditions and friendly staff. Very small room. Beautiful historic hotel and perfectly situated. The recent renovations were completed with taste and sensitivity.

	Date of Stay: April, 2009
It was very clean, staff was friendly. The bed was lumpy. I would definitely stay at this hotel again. The rooms were very clean. It was in the center of town and very close to the bus lines.
