Top Northern Europe Hotel Reviews

Otherwander Soho Pod Hotel (ADULTS ONLY)

10/10 Excellent

"The room gets we"

Clayton Hotel Dublin Airport

10/10 Excellent

"The Clayton Hotel at Swords is a great place to stay before or after flying to Dublin Airport. The room was huge, well appointed and fresh. My only slight complaint was that the bed was a bit hard for my liking but this is really nitpicking. I 100% recommend staying here without any issues."

Marlin Hotel Stephens Green

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed here for 3 nights in mid October, 2026. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, the room was immaculate, comfortable and well appointed. The location is excellent: right in the heart of the city, yet just far enough away where it’s convenient, yet quiet. Next time in Dublin, I know where I’ll be booking!"
