As a passionate and experienced reviewer, I can confidently say that the West County Hotel is a solid and virtually flawless choice for those seeking honest value, provided they're willing to make a few small compromises.
Location...The hotel is strategically located just west of the city center. For a seasoned traveler, this isn't a weakness, but an advantage. You avoid the chaos and exorbitant prices of the city center, while remaining perfectly connected. The number 80 bus, which passes right in front of the hotel every 20 minutes, makes Dublin's city center (and its vibrant nightlife) easily reachable in less than half an hour. A real plus for those traveling without a car.
Building...The building itself and the furnishings are showing signs of age—don't expect the ultra-modern design of a new-generation hotel. However, this is more than compensated for by the fairly high level of cleanliness, which I found in both the room and the common areas. The room, although dated in style, was functional and complete with every practical comfort. I was pleasantly surprised to find not only a comfortable desk, but also a table and an iron. A very useful detail, especially for those traveling for work or for long periods.
Areas for Improvement (the compromises):
1. Socket Emergency: There were no European (two-pin) electrical outlets in the room, only UK ones and two USB/USB-C sockets. For an international traveler in 2024, this is a significant drawback. Fortunately, I had a USB-to-power strip adapter with me, but those without one might have trouble charging their laptop, headphones, and other devices.
2. Mixed Breakfast: The continental buffet is, unfortunately, rather poor and disappointing. The selection is limited and unappealing. The saving grace is the à la carte menu, which offers 3-4 freshly cooked options (the eggs are excellent, but avoid the pancakes; they were actually crepes).
3. No Minibar: The lack of a minibar in the room is another drawback, especially for those who want to stock up on water, drinks, or snacks.
Would I return? Despite the above points, the verdict is positive: yes, I would return!! The West County Hotel knows exactly what it offers: a clean, comfortable, and well-connected stay, at a price that reflects its age and its small shortcomings. It's not a luxury hotel, but a reliable base camp for exploring Dublin. If you're looking for the wow factor, it might not be for you. If you're looking for functionality, cleanliness, and excellent public transportation, it's a more than valid choice.

A hotel with a retro yet efficient feel. Very friendly staff, both at reception and in the breakfast restaurant. I would have liked more variety for breakfast, but what was available was well-cooked.
The bus stop in front of the hotel is convenient.

Wonderful hotel in a beautiful quiet location. A little far from the city center, but good transport connections and a huge park nearby. The hotel has an almost family atmosphere. Extremely friendly and qualified staff, who are always willing to help if needed. I recommend it!

The hotel is located in a remote area, but has a convenient bus stop right in front, allowing you to reach the city center in 20 minutes. The manager, who has worked in Italy for 25 years, is very friendly and engaging. The rooms are spacious enough, with excellent mattresses and pillows. It would be helpful to replace the carpet (it gets dirty quickly and collects dust) and the entrance locks could be updated. Excellent service, adequate breakfast, but there's a fee for a supplement. Definitely recommended, considering the potential improvements.
