Time allowed for parking very generous, several hours after check out time. Drivers of larger cars will struggle with tight corners getting in to parking area. Room was lovely, but wish hotels would provide lighter duvets for summer months. Lovely staff in bar and breakfast areas, makes such a difference to the stay. All in all a top class hotel, would certainly visit again.

Beautiful Ballsbridge

The Clayton, Ballsbridge was a beautiful hotel. Created from an old Masonic school. There are numerous bars, restaurants and coffee shops in the Ballsbridge area as well as Herbert Park. Convenient to the RDS and Aviva Stadium The room was really comfortable. We had a lovely breakfast and dinner in the bar. There was a nice vibrant atmosphere in the bar in the evening. I would highly recommend

Quite a nice hotel. The bed was comfortable but the room needed updating. The windows did not fit properly so a lot of outside noise was heard, including the daily coaches very early in the morning. I thought my days of having a shower in a bath with a shower curtain clinging to me were over, but this hotel proved they weren't.

Beautiful building and property. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. What needs improvement are the tvs in the rooms. The picture was warped and not very clear.. also the lunch menu in the restaurant to have some gluten free options. The restaurant staff were excellent in finding a situation for me with what they had.
