Dublin Skylon Hotel in Dublin

Dublin Skylon Hotel is a hospitality establishment located in Drumcondra next to Dublin City University (DCU) St. Patrick's campus. How to get there? From Dublin Airport to the hotel, you can take bus 16, 41, or 41c for €2 and arrive in 30-35 minutes. From Skylon Hotel to Dublin city center, you can take bus 19 or 41 and arrive in 20-25 minutes for €2 (coins only). (The bus does not yet accept cashless payments. Prices as of May 2026.) The service from the reception staff was outstanding. Congratulations! ⚠️On the other hand, the service from the bar/restaurant staff could be improved. I suggest that the middle-aged gentleman who collects payment for breakfast at the restaurant entrance be a bit friendlier, or at least smile when collecting the €18 per person for the breakfast buffet. Their interactions with customers and the breakfast staff could be more pleasant and ease the tense atmosphere that seems to be present among most of the restaurant staff. This is why I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5. ⚠️ Everything else is excellent; the rooms are clean and the common areas are ideal for leisure or business trips. The price is reasonable for the value offered. 🙌🏽

A well-maintained hotel with friendly service. There's a good bus connection right in front of the hotel to the city center (€2 / 10 min) and also to the airport. The hotel restaurant offers a good menu with plenty of choices. The rooms are comfortable and clean. A safe, a refrigerator (empty), and an ironing board are provided. The only drawback is the lack of air conditioning in the room. On hot days, the table fan is definitely insufficient. The carpet in the room is also rather old-fashioned from a hygiene perspective.

I stayed for two nights and was a bit disappointed with this hotel. I arrived at the hotel late at night and my phone battery was dead. I forgot that Ireland uses a different power adapter than the rest of Europe, so I asked the concierge for it. He told me they don't have it and that I need to wait until tomorrow and go to the nearest store. Also, breakfast is too expensive for what you get so try eating somewhere else...

Friendly staff ... Fast service Just need to help more when at functions when customers order large rounds to carry tray's to table's

It was really great here and I would choose the same hotel for my trip to Dublin anytime :)

It's a very nice hotel, although it's a bit far from the city center. Public transport runs frequently and takes you directly there. It's also right next to a supermarket, convenience stores, and restaurants. The staff is very friendly, and the rooms are always clean. It's a very welcoming hotel.

Great experience altogether! Highly professional and helpful stuff. I would add another star for cleanliness if I could. Modern facilities, available toiletries, fresh bed linen. I especially loved comfy pillows. It is literally, beside DCU.

Very good profesional service . Nice hotel beautiful and looks posh.

We stayed here before our early morning flight back. Parking available on premises which was great since we had the hire car. 10 Euros for 1 night. We recieved an upgrade to a King room which was lovely and we had a nice night sleep. We did not try breakfast because we left too early. Reception staff were very helpful and friendly. Plenty of walkable pubs and restaurants nearby. 10 min approx. drive to the airport.

Help me, I'm looking for my young, handsome, perfect, sexy, and incredibly handsome man. I left him asleep in the bedroom, and when I left the bathroom, he disappeared. The search is still on. Whoever finds him gets a free concert (if you don't faint at the sight of such a gorgeous man).
