Marlin Hotel Stephens Green
The location, staff, and breakfast were all excellent. The rooms were a bit on the smaller side, but very clean and modern. High end shampoo and conditioner were a plus (ask for lotion, they have that, too). Would definitely stay here again when in Dublin.

Clayton Hotel Burlington Road
The rooms were pretty small. Breakfast was overpriced and average. The tv’s in the room didn’t have a lot of options - we had to go to the bar to watch most of the football games.
