Top Grand Canal Hotel Reviews

Hotel Riu Plaza The Gresham Dublin

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel, great room, spotlessly clean, comfy bed, great shower. Oh, and breakfast was excellent!"

Anantara The Marker Dublin - A Leading Hotel of the World

6/10 Okay

"Not worth $500 a night, and certainly not a true 5 star property. Parking is a pain and expensive. Staff is not consistently competent or helpful. Bathroom mirrors are dirty, lack of info about minibar and amenities. Also, the Docklands area is bland and lame."

Marlin Hotel Stephens Green

6/10 Okay

"If you’re looking for a centrally located hotel in Dublin, this will not disappoint. However, the price does not line-up with the experience and offerings. Think and expect budget hotel experience at a FIVE star hotel price. The bed was clean and comfortable, but occupied 50% of the room. There are no closets or drawers to hold your clothes so you’re managing from your suitcase. The breakfast was good, but but in advance to avoid unnecessary cost."

Clink i Lár

6/10 Okay

"Nice, clean hostel in a convenient location. The only issue is that the 4-bed dorm I was in had the bathroom and shower in the room. Dublin is a party city, so guests come in at all hours. They take showers and get ready for bed while the rest of us are trying to sleep. It would be better if the restrooms/showers were outside the dorm room."

The Dean Dublin Docklands- Formerly The Mayson

10/10 Excellent

"We found this hotel's design and quieter location to be the star.. so much so that we'll return. The architecture and design is quite good (save for my comment below) - our room was a very comfortable modest king in the warehouse - with warm brick, lovely parquet floor, wood panel, and polished concrete finishes. Room contained a nice collection of amenities (though note - no iron in room) & TV with full compliment of channels & access to streaming. A hair dryer is available in the room, but not coupled with a well-conceived outlet location. We've found this to be a common oversight on the Island. Why is it that hotels in Ireland cannot offer an outlet near a mirror? (My wife suggests that not a single woman has been involved in the vetting of Ireland's hotel room design.) Unfortunately, Ryleigh's rooftop restaurant was closed for a private party at dinnertime (quite honestly, was an annoyance) - thankfully everything in Dublin is walkable & well connected via bus/streetcar. We enjoyed breakfast the next morning overlooking the river. If you enjoy architecture and design - this hotel offers a very nice option."
