Stayed here while attending a concert in the Three Arena. Staff at the front desk were very helpful and professional. The room was very well laid out with everything you'd need without being large. The bar area was large and comfortable with very knowledgeable bar staff. The pool area was clean and the gym was a good size. We purchased the breakfast as we'd booked room only. It was well worth it as there was a great selection of breakfast options for whatever someone might want. Overall a fantastic stay and it'll be my first hotel check if I'm planning on staying in the vicinity again.

We had a good one night stay. All the staff were very friendly and helpful and our room was comfortable and quiet. Breakfast was good…. More fruit would be good. The hot food was very good. Our only main complaint was the temperature of the breakfast room….. it was freezing and not comfortable because of this. And this is January when heating should be on!

Very friendly staff and extremely quiet and peaceful location. Dublin Express bus stop is right outside the hotel and takes you right to and from the airport. Many major city attractions are walkable. We did not use a car the entire stay.

Hotel is next to a construction site and highway. Walls are made of toilet paper. You can hear everything. Noisy hotel, no sound proofing, felt cheap. Staff kind, but after a few days of basically sleeping in the middle of a highway - never again.

Stayed here for one night because we were going to a concert in the 3 Arena. Perfect location to walk into Dublin City centre and to the concert venue. Staff are all really friendly and helpful, lovely hotel. Only complaint was the alarm clock in the room had been set (not by us) to go off at 6am!! Lovely toiletries in the bathroom from Rituals. I would definitely stay here again

Unsatisfactory Stay
My first room was on the 7th floor. Unfortunately there was an air con unit above me which disturbed my sleep. I asked to be moved and told that they were full but they could accommodate me in a room on the 1st floor. This was a much smaller room and at around 6:30 to 7am building work beside the hotel woke me up. I asked again for a better room and on my return they gave me a room at the front of the hotel on the second floor. The problem with this room was that the double glazing was ineffective and the traffic noise was constant until the early hours. BUT it then started up at around 5:30 am. Very disappointed with this hotel and I would not stay there again unless I was given a quiet room.

Noisy hotel. Wouldn’t stay again.
Upon check in, we were given an “upgrade” to a junior suite. The room was adjacent to a building site and we were woken at 7:30. Also, the balcony door was not tight. It was noisy and let in the cold. Had to keep the curtains closed so workmen on building site couldn’t look in.

Dear Frances,I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for choosing to stay at the Spencer Hotel and taking the time to leave your feedback. It was most disappointing to read about your experience, please be assured this is not our normal level of service and for this I offer you my sincere apologies. I want to apologise for the issues you encountered with the local construction site. The hotel is in constant contact with the developers regarding loud work schedules however unfortunately they are not always as up to date with communicating this to the hotel. I will be passing your feedback onto my senior management team who will be discussing this with the developers.The hospitality, comfort and care we show to our guests are of paramount importance to us and the feedback you have provided will certainly assist us in the maintaining and constantly improving our standards.We hope you will consider us again that we can recover our service with you.

The location was excellent - right in the heart of the city, a short walk from the EPIC museum, Busaras bus station and Connolly train station. The Dublin Express to the airport goes from the bus stop right next to the hotel. I really enjoyed using the gym at the hotel. It was a very good facility.
