Hardy's Bar in Dublin

Stunning hotel in a lovely location at a good price on Booking.com. Check-in and staff were very polite and professional. We didn't have breakfast here and ventured out to a local breakfast cafe just around the corner which offered better choice of food and at a cheaper cost. Underground car park on site was free and had limited spaces on arrival but we did arrive quite late. Space was tight getting our car in and out so larger vehicles will struggle depending on what spaces are free. We took the train into Dublin and the station was conveniently located nearby. Room was excellent with good air con but the view was awful. Worst view I had in any hotel ive stayed in. The view basically was staring at a wall opposite and no point opening the curtains! I didn't expect a Seaview but having no view at all was a disappointment. Would happily stay here if visiting Dublin again in the future.

Great location to dart train,great breakfast.great service.

Nice hotel in a great location, friendly staff and good value, definitely recommend a stay here.

Had a beautiful meal in there restaurant bank holiday Sunday great service very friendly staff we were very well looked after thank you everyone for working so hard.. I would definitely recommend this place 100 percent no problems at all ❤️😎 wonderful hospitality

First time staying here. Very nice and relaxing. Food service could be quicker but didn't take away from an enjoyable experience. Update: I'm very happy to say the service has improved tremendously. They are very attentive and friendly. I'm glad I returned to this hotel.

I used both the spa facilities and the leisure area during my visit. The swimming pool was clean and well-maintained. The leisure space includes a steam room, sauna, and jacuzzi. While the jacuzzi isn’t the most impressive I’ve seen, it’s better than many others thanks to the slightly hotter water, which made it more relaxing. The leisure club is located close to the spa, and you can move between the two areas in your thermal robe, although they are technically separate spaces. The spa itself was very clean, with a peaceful ambiance and friendly, kind staff. I had a massage which was incredibly relaxing—so much so that I actually fell asleep during it! While not the best massage I’ve ever had, it definitely left me feeling calm and refreshed. The hot stone beds were fantastic, and the water bed was also a nice touch. The spa includes a sauna, aroma room, and a variety of treatment rooms. We opted for the mud chamber experience, which was absolutely brilliant—highly recommended! Though the spa isn't particularly large, it's clean, beautifully designed with candlelight and calming vibes, and thankfully wasn’t crowded during our visit. The only drawback was that some guests were speaking very loudly in the seating area, which is located right next to the relaxation zone. It really disrupted the peaceful atmosphere. I think the staff should kindly remind guests to maintain a quiet tone in those spaces. One key area of improvement is maintaining and restocking the refreshment offerings. After 3 PM, it seemed like the fruit basket, water flasks, and hot water for tea had not been replenished. The fruit basket—mostly green apples—was nearly empty from the start, and by the time we checked, only two very old and unappetizing apples remained. It would really enhance the experience if these small details were better managed throughout the day. Our package included food, which meant we had to change out of spa attire and return to the hotel restaurant. While it was a bit inconvenient to change just for lunch and then head back to the spa, it was also a nice opportunity to experience the hotel's dining service. The spa menu is different from the regular one, but it still offers a good variety of options. We had the chicken curry and fish and chips—both were served in generous portions and tasted delicious. The restaurant staff were very kind and respectful. Located in Dún Laoghaire, Dublin, the spa is in a lovely and easily accessible area. Overall, it was a relaxing and enjoyable experience with just a few small areas for improvement. ------- *Updates After Revisit* I recently revisited the spa at the Royal Marine Hotel and was genuinely impressed by how much attention they pay to guest feedback. This time, the experience was even better. All the spa baskets were well-stocked, the cold and hot drinks were regularly refreshed and of noticeably high quality, and the overall atmosphere was calm and enjoyable—just like my first visit. The staff were once again incredibly kind and professional, adding to the relaxing vibe of the place. The service quality throughout the visit was excellent. Everything was spotless and well-maintained, and I left feeling just as satisfied—if not more—than the last time. It's clear they truly care about providing a top-tier experience. One small suggestion: I asked if they have a loyalty program for frequent spa visitors and was told there isn’t one at the moment. I believe introducing some kind of membership or discount program for returning guests would be a great addition. Overall, I still highly recommend this spa and will definitely be back again.

Amazing 2 nights food gorgeous staff very helpful and friendly will diffinately be back

Nice hotel, clean rooms with good food at the restaurant. The staff was fantastic and extremely accommodating. You are treated exceptionally good by all who you interact with. The location is great with only a short walk to the Irish sea.

Excellent staff, excellent rooms, perfect location

We only popped in for a drink all the staff we interacted with were delightful. It’s just a bit tired, a bit untidy and the bar area very much smelt of fried food, which was a bit unpleasant. Sadly it’s not for us.
