Hotel Riu Plaza The Gresham Dublin

Hotel Riu Plaza The Gresham Dublin

8/10 Good
"This hotel is perfectly located and the breakfast is amazing. The standard rooms are tiny but that is to be expected. The washroom was spacious. The only negative was that we were there during a heatwave in August and the air conditioning never got the room cool enough !! I would stay there again in a heartbeat!"

"Great place to do a 12 hour layover at DUB before continuing on to other places. Be sure you understand what shuttle you need to get on. Don’t go to bus pickup point 16. Go to pickup point 8 and you’ll be at your hotel room at the airport location in a New York minute!"

"Clean and comfortable hotel in a good location. There was some initial confusion over the late check-out time, but this was rectified easily and without any problems. We didn't stay for breakfast as we had an early start, so can't comment on that. The restaurant food, however, was fairly mediocre and quite expensive for what it was. Overall, a pleasant and comfortable stay, but the dining experience could definitely be improved."
