Clayton Hotel Charlemont in Dublin

We were on the third floor of a section of the hotel with no elevators, but they helped us carry our bags to our room.

We had a two night mid week break at the Clayton Charlemont. We stayed in the James Bond suite (room 007). Had a fabulous time. The room had everything we required and the beds were so comfortable. But what really made our stay was the welcoming staff. In particular I would like to thank Carmel who made sure we had a lovely breakfast and nothing was too much trouble. I have no hesitation in recommending this hotel. You won't be disappointed. 😃

The hotel is very well located, the rooms are cozy, clean, comfortable. What I had the worst was going up in the elevator, you have to be inserting your card to go up, if you don't have it at hand, or it has been blocked, you can't go up, but removing this the rest was great. Friendly treatment by all employees. Special mention to Mustafa at reception, his colleagues were equally nice, but I didn't remember their names. At the restaurant Juan el canario, super friendly and patient with the group of 13 women who went. With the Valencian one, I didn't stick with the name, and there was another girl who spoke Spanish, all super nice. Also right next door there is a pub where we ate two days, all the dishes were super delicious, and in front of the hotel there is a supermarket, in case you are hungry... The truth is, a hotel to repeat when we return to Dublin.

Unfortunately, I can't quite agree with the previous reviews; The location is okay, but central is different in my opinion. It takes about 15-20 minutes on foot or a few stops by SBahn (but the stop is very close) to get to the center. The room was adequate, but you can only tilt one window slightly because they are all the way to the floor. To make matters worse, the windows have bars attached to them like bars in a prison (probably of architectural value?) and are extremely dirty (especially inside). However, the rest of the room was mostly clean. The shower has very little water pressure and the ventilation system above it was full of dust. The friendly service in the restaurant/at breakfast was positive (especially Carmel does a great job). The breakfast selection is typically Irish (sausages, beans, blood pudding, etc.), but you can also order good omelettes, porrigdes, etc. fresh to the table. I was surprised by the really good chicken curry in the evening restaurant!

My husband and I recently spent a week in Dublin, and we were thoroughly impressed with our stay at this hotel. The accommodations were excellent, and the staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome. Their friendliness was refreshing, and they genuinely appreciated any gratuity—quite different from the norm in the U.S., where tips often go unacknowledged. The food at the hotel was unexpectedly delicious. We particularly enjoyed the porridge, Mexican chicken salad, and ham and cheese toastie. The waitstaff provided us with fantastic recommendations for local restaurants (like Richmond Restaurant), sites (Phoenix Park), and museums (EPIC), all of which we thoroughly enjoyed. A special mention goes to the bartender who introduced my husband to his new favorite Irish whiskey, Teelings. Housekeeping was very accommodating and flexible. If we weren't ready for them when they first came by, they always made a point to return at a more convenient time—something I've found lacking at other hotels, where missing the initial visit often means your room doesn’t get cleaned at all. The valet service was smooth and hassle-free, and I was pleasantly surprised when they proactively refunded me for a night of parking I had prepaid but didn’t use. The hotel's location was also a major plus. It’s conveniently situated near a convenience store, has an attached coffee shop, and is within walking distance of several restaurants and bars. For those who enjoy walking, like myself, it was ideally positioned—just removed enough from the busy downtown area to offer some peace, yet close enough to stroll to Grafton Street and other central spots. I highly recommend checking out the Asian restaurant next door—the noodles were amazing! As for downsides, there were just a few. The hotel didn’t have a steamer, which was a bit of a letdown as I needed one for an embroidered silk dress I planned to wear to a wedding. The coffee shop attached to the hotel was closed on weekends, and when the sole staff member fell ill, it remained closed on Monday and Tuesday of our stay as well. While the hotel did offer coffee, the shop had a broader selection of specialty drinks and convenient takeaway options like salads, sandwiches, and protein bars. Lastly, it would have been nice to have a fridge or microwave in the room for storing and reheating leftovers. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and would highly recommend this hotel for a stay in Dublin.

Excellent location.. Superb Staff.. All in all well worth trying for a short break..or longer..

Very good hotel with high standards. The breakfast leaves nothing to be desired. Idyllically located on a canal. The center is easy to reach on foot.

Although we only stayed one night, our experience was very good. Large room and very comfortable bed. The service from the reception staff was good and the check-in and check-out process was very quick. Restaurant staff very nice. In our case, we were assisted by two guys named Gloria and Gregorio, and in addition to taking care not only of us, but of the entire staff, they were very pleasant. Especially, I highlight that I am lactose intolerant and celiac and Gloria was very attentive to me, suggesting different options that were in accordance with my restrictions. If we had to return, we would definitely repeat in the same place. Thank you, Clayton staff. Thank you Gloria and Gregorio

Stayed for 3 nights on a business visit. The beds were comfortable and a nice powerful shower. Very little noise from outside (2nd floor facing the canal). Not too far to walk into the city. Didn't have any food so can't comment here, but did observe breakfast prices are expensive (though as are most hotels..). Would stay at again.
