Lovely location by the sea. Easy 5 min walk to shops, restaurants and pubs. Loved the 15 minute walk to Sandycove along the sea front from outside the hotel,. Rooms were tradition and very cosy, the staff were super friendly.

Good hotel in a good spot
My only issue with the stay was that the hotel was inaccurately described on Hotels.com as having a pool, so we planned to have a swim on the morning before checking out. This wasn't the hotel's fault, and it's probably the only time in many years of using Hotel.com that I've ever had an issue with a listing. However, the price I paid did reflect my belief that it had a pool. Having said that, the hotel was in an ideal place for our visit, the staff were lovely, and the room was one of the best we've stayed in for a long time, in terms of cleanliness and comfort (though the shower temperature did fluctuate). Overall, we really liked the place.

Best hotel in the area, easy access to Dublin city
I cannot sing enough praises about Haddington House! It is the loveliest hotel that I have ever stayed in! I have stayed in 4 and 5 star resorts and Haddington House does not have all of those resort amenities like a water park, a fitness center, or a casino. BUT it is a beautifully and uniquely designed hotel with a very fascinating history. The entire hotel is immaculate and it is truly a work of art. It’s a small boutique hotel which provides an intimate, quiet experience. It’s across from Dun Laoghaire Harbor so it is very safe, very quiet, and very peaceful. The hotel has stunning views. There is a wonderful restaurant, Oliveto, inside the hotel and it is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Breakfast is made to order and it was absolutely delicious and you get to stare out at lovely Dun Laoghaire harbor and the sea while enjoying a cup of tea. The hotel was an easy 5-7 minute walk from the shops and cafes in Dun Laoghaire and Dun Laoghaire train station. There is also a bus stop close by. You can easily get to Dublin city center in 20-25 minutes on the DART train. Emma and the staff at Haddington House are absolutely wonderful. They are very warm and kind and they made my stay so special and comfortable. My stay at Haddington House was one of the highlights of my 4 week long trip around Ireland and the UK. I really hope to visit Dublin again in the future and Haddington House is my first choice for any future stays in Dublin.

A very comfortable stay in a wonderful location. The surrounding area is fabulous and you are easily connected to Dublin central with the Dart train service, bus or taxi. The quality of service, the drinks in the cocktail bar and the restaurant is first class as is what they serve. The breakfast will certainly set you up for the day!

Beautiful area and beautiful hotel! Upon arrival the guest services was lovely, she recommended we see their restaurant for a meal as we arrived late. The staff at the restaurant were accommodating to my husbands dietary restrictions. Our room was excellent, clean and spacious. The ability to purchase some of the products we used was wonderful as it was our first visit to Ireland. Now we can take home a piece of Ireland with us. Would stay again. Beautiful accommodations and area. 3 minutes from the beach!

Lovely stay
My sister, husband & I stayed one night. No issues. Didn’t have the breakfast or evening meal. Very comfortable. Only thing was they charged us again about an hour after I paid on the same card. Was a little unusual as it wasn’t even the same account. They rectified it as soon as I brought it to their attention.

Haddington or rather Not Had
Location was great… Found the room to be tight & small for 2 people… Floor was not level as bed had shims… After a half hour of running the shower, no hot water was available… Front desk was friendly when we arrive until the change of shift then the new girl was not so friendly… For the price we paid, we definitely should get a partial refund… Restaurant “Oliverti” was ok but very limited in choice… Spanish Hostess from Malaga was Great… She had an Awesome Attitude and Super Friendly !!! We will most likely stay someplace else when we return to the area but will eat at restaurant again…

Good morning Mike,It is disappointing to read this review after your stay. If there was any issue with noise affecting your stay please always inform staff at the time or mention it on check out. This gives us the opportunity to try to rectify the situation for you which is very difficult to do after the event. I hope you both enjoy the rest of your trip.

My second home! I have been coming to Haddington House for many years, and the place just keep getting better and better. Oliveto is one of my favourite restaurants in the world. The staff is super helpful, friendly, and always ready to go the extra mile. The rooms are real bedrooms, nice and cozy. My home in Dublin!

Exceptional stay, toasty room.
Exceptional service, and lovely hotel. Free on site parking, which was very convenient and a great amenity to have, especially in that area. The only negative I have, is that the heat was on very high in the room, and it was uncomfortable. I tried to turn it down / off, but it remained hot for a long time. I had to leave the window open all night. Everything else was excellent.
