Top Northern Europe Hotel Reviews

Clayton Hotel Dublin Airport Central

8/10 Good

"Took a room as I needed to get to the airport early. Everything was fine, the place is well maintained and had no hassles."

Clayton Hotel Dublin Airport

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is beautful! Clean areas, lovely lounge , coffee , snacks on entry. Room and beds are comfortable . Only thing is that if you are on the first floor , there is an elevator to go up but then you still have a short flight of stairs to manage to get to your room. Inconvenient if you have a lot of heavy luggage to manage. There is a convenient store for snacks/gas, fast food . Nothing else is around . It will cost about 26€ to get to downtown"

Otherwander Soho Pod Hotel (ADULTS ONLY)

10/10 Excellent

"An off the wall choice but definitely worth trying. When travelling for business I get into Kings X at 11pm, so when you just want a bed and a clean place to have a shower the next morning, why pay £250+ when this is 10 mins taxi from the station and £90 for a night. The pods are fine (almost therapeutic in their seclusion) and they spend money and time making sure the showers and changing rooms are luxe, clean and well maintained. Would recommend."
