Dublin Hotel Guide - Castleknock Castle hotels in Dublin, Ireland.

"Only issue I had was, the fire alarm in my room (only to the front desk) on several days while I was in the shower. Alarm would be set off by the steam???? They would knock on my door, so I’d have to tell them it was because of the shower. "

"The Ashling was a wonderful hotel, convenient to public transportation, the tram, bus and train station. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and the rooms were clean and spacious. The breakfast buffet was well worth having with a variety of food and service."

"We only stayed one night at the very end of our trip when we were thoroughly exhausted, but it was a nice place to stay for that last night. Easy check-in and out process, and the front desk staff were friendly. Parking is a few blocks away which was a little difficult with our huge luggage, but manageable. Clean and very comfortable room, but not a lot in the immediate blocks surrounding the hotel. I felt like I was in a better area once I walked a few blocks south toward the canal. "

"Fantastic check in and room was comfortable., Crisps left on floor from previous guests but overall was fine. Staff were great Breakfast was very good. Main reason we booked was For the pool, got breakfast early and went down with kids and were told pool was closed for cleaning and they weren't sure when it would be open. Although I appreciate the issue was unavoidable I don't think it was dealt with in a timely manner.. Considering the pool opened at 9 and was already closed when we got there at 8.50 the incident must have happened the night before and not dealt with. Given that it was Easter weekend with lots of families visiting for use of the pool this was very disappointing. Otherwise It was a nice hotel and I would visit again. "

"Very well kept and clean hotel. We had a great stay—the rooms were a bit small (not a complaint, just a heads up), but very functional and the bed was very comfortable."

"Excellent!"

"Quick check in very clean "

"Hotel was a great find for us and was 1st visit away from home with our son"

"What a wonderful surprise this hotel was! From the pictures, we thought it would be more plain; functional, but not as elegant. I would call its elegance 'simple' but real; likely it was recently refurbished. It had the most comfortable bed we've been on in a hotel in a long while. And usually at a hotel that is not 'high-end' the bathrooms and the shower tend to feel like afterthoughts. Not here; the shower was good sized, with good water pressure and plenty of hot water, with easy to understand controls. Blackout curtains as well; not a lot of street noise, but the area sees a lot of car traffic during business hours, and the these helped us sleep in when we wanted to. We loved the neighborhood. Right across from Phoenix Park, and the Criminal Courts building, there were great places to either grab a quick sandwich on the go, or sit down in a lovely pub and enjoy a pint and some good food (Nancy Hands is the one we frequented). Less than five minute walk to the bus stop, and just over five to Heuston station, for the LUAS tram and lots of other busses (in addition to trains leaving Dublin). Maybe the affordable rates have to do with the fact that it is a little bit outside the 'central' Dublin area, which to us made it so enjoyable. No 'Temple Bar' madness going on; just a good room for a good price in a wonderful neighborhood. "
