Top Merrion Square Hotel Reviews

Ruby Molly Hotel Dublin by IHG

6/10 Okay

"Room was very clean, and perfectly adequate, but not particularly impressed that no drinks were available in room, not even bottled water, and no WiFi available in bedrooms. I did mention to staff on two occasions, and was told that a 'note' would be made, useful. Had to stand in corridor to obtain signal, not ideal."

The Hoxton Dublin

8/10 Good

"The air condition was not working in our first room and after the second nice the staff kindly relocated us to a new room. While the new room had working air conditioning and slightly bigger, the shower drain was clogged and we rushed our showers to not cause a flood. We did mention this to the hotel staff, but it went unfixed. Overall, good hotel in a prime location to downtown and all the touristy things to do in Dublin."

Staycity Aparthotels, Dublin, Mark Street

8/10 Good

"The room size (one bedroom with a living room with pull out sofa) was good as was the price. The furnishings were fine and the bed was comfortable. The kitchen area was stocked with the "stuff" one would expect. Overall it was a good experience and I would stay at the property again. Having said that...there is room for some improvement. No deal breakers but constructive feedback. 1. Don't put the soup dispenser that is near the bathroom sink over the "cup" and its holder. Even if a person uses it to hold their toothbrush...too much chance for soap to drip in or on. 2. The shower door was not long enough to cover the opening to the shower. I know this was intentional. It was not a good choice. The water will splash out of the open portion of the door (around 33% of length of the shower). There is no drain in the floor. Combined with the steam build up...everything is wet. NOTE - The next couple of suggestions are more nitpicks...where the previous observations are more significant.) 3. The sink is very small...I understand the space saving purpose...but it was too small (in my opinion). 4. The venting from the bathroom is passive. put an exhaust fan in...it would help a lot. I will reiterate...I would book at the hotel again without reservation. The suggestions are likely not likely in the current hotel...but in future builds something to take into account."
