01/04/2024: Amazing hotel, with really nice rooms. Good service and kind staff.
Room had all needed furniture and even some tea/coffee. Beddings, towels, robes, slippers were present.
(Nice point we had 2 eu adapted chargers and 4 usb).
On breakfast there were some ready-made options (like cereal, bread, muffins, fruits) and the actual breakfast options from menu with waitresses ready to consult regarding allergies.
24/03/2024: Charming little 4* hotel at the foot of the Aviva Stadium with small private parking.
We are far from the city center, so taxis are necessary, but what peace and quiet, even on match day.
There are still the first pubs and restaurants 400m away on foot.
You feel good and at home, with attentive staff available on site 7 days a week, 24 hours a day. Hospitality and customer service continue on the other side of the Channel and that is very pleasant.
Don't be fooled by the small space reserved for breakfast within a glass roof: it is plentiful, with lots of choice and well-made dishes, which will allow you to postpone or even skip a meal if necessary. Please note that the establishment does not offer lunch or dinner.
A lounge/relaxation area at the entrance is very nice, with large armchairs and sofas, as well as various items available: board games, pastries, coffee/tea, water, newspaper, electrical outlets, etc.
The rooms are of good quality with decent bedding, equipped with telephone, coffee maker, connected television, numerous sockets, bath/shower, but there are 2 notable points of improvement:
*there appears to be no airflow, making it difficult to ventilate. The only opening is through the window which opens too little, knowing that the one in the bathroom seems boarded up. There is no air conditioning either, but I think the days in the year where it would be useful are numbered (heating by cast iron radiator).
*the bathroom/WC lacks finishing and modernity, so improvement work is necessary, knowing that we would like separate WCs. The shower system is particular, but once you understand, everything is fine ;)
I will definitely go back if I have to go back to the Aviva Stadium!
