The Laurels Perrystown in Dublin

14/04/2026: This review is for the dining experience: We booked an "afternoon tea" for two. The set up was absolutely delightful and area that the "afternoon tea" was served in was perfect for dining with two children as space was spacious yet pretty private, so kids had room to move freely and didn't bother anyone. I would definitely book that area for dining with kids next time again and I must say that hotel staff are definitely very kids friendly. Everything on the platter was tasty, tea and coffee hot and strong. We had a walk through restaurant and bar and all seemed very clean. We will definitely be back, with kids as they had a lovely time.

25/03/2026: A very nice hotel, well located near the fishing port (about a five-minute walk) and Ardgillan Castle (three kilometers). The staff were welcoming and genuinely friendly. The room was well laid out and comfortable, as were the bedding and bathroom. Breakfast was excellent and varied, with fried eggs, toast, different types of bread, and a multitude of condiments and fresh produce—there was something for everyone, and plenty of it too. Dinner was different each night, featuring typical dishes, good wine, and a wide selection of beers. The room was cleaned daily and everything was spotless. We took a road trip and visited Dublin, including St. Patrick's Cathedral, Blarney Castle, Kylemore Abbey, Kilkenny, Belfast (including the Titanic Museum), Glendalough Causeway, and other sites I love and that are quintessentially Irish. We had already been to Ireland but in the South West and we were not disappointed either, two stays with countless and very pleasant memories.
