Maldron Hotel Smithfield

Exceptional

Liked: The beds were very comfortable, appeared to be new mattresses. The location was 15 min walk from everything in Dublin. We never needed to use transportation except to the airport. The breakfast was excellant and had great variety. They provided water bottles every day which was a very nice gesture.
Disliked: The rooms were hot at night. They provided a fan which was not adequate. We stayed on the 5th floor and kept the balcony door open all night but that still did not cool off the room.

Very good

Disliked: Very little on menu and out of some food we tried to order but receptionist and manager excellent in their job , all staff extremely nice and efficient

Don’t stay here in the...

Liked: Location was okay, but not great.
Disliked: There was no air conditioning which is okay, as long as you disclose that on your marketing materials. WAY too uncomfortable during the summer. Never would have booked here without air conditioning

Pleasant

Do NOT recommend staying here...

Disliked: There was no air conditioning so the room felt like a sauna. It was minimum 28 degrees in the room which made it impossible to sleep. Moreover, ventilation in the bathroom was non-existent so the heat and humidity from the shower made the room feel even hotter. It was insufferable.

Adequate and clean

Liked: All very good apart from no aircon
Disliked: Aircon

Home away from home

Liked: We absolutely loved the location. 20 minute walk to the centre of Dublin. Great vibe. There is a supermarket right next door to the property. And the receptionists working the front desk were fab, great energy, very friendly, very helpful.
Disliked: Lack of air on in the room and fan not working in the bathroom. Shower heads require a thorough cleaning as the build up of limescale was apparent from a distance. Under the beds could be hovered once per week at least. But all in all aside from those minors fab stay
