Suzanne D, New Ross, visiting 3Arena Dublin Sun, 25 May 2025

Overall staff very friendly and helpful; clean hotel - old but nice.

Liked: Near the RDS.
Disliked: Car park is ridiculous - could really update it. Also fountain in the front of hotel green was not working and park benches not painted - bit out dated.

Good location but poor experience...

Liked: Location is great. Lovely hotel to look at and surrounding area.
Disliked: Our hotel room was located at the back of an events hall. The music was blaring through the night. We had to go down at 11:30pm because they had the emergency door wide open blaring the music directly into our room window (which was closed). They closed the door but the music was still so loud in the room, with the windows closed. I had ear plugs and could still hear it. Very poor set up for people trying to sleep.
