12/12/2025: Love this pub. Super friendly staff and good crowd, mix of all ages. Big but still feels cosy and intimate, with lots of seating and little nooks and crannies. Great pint of Guinness and nice pub chow. Music is lively but not so loud you can't talk over it, and very comfortable smoking area. Recommended!

30/11/2025: Had a delish burger with amazing wedges here. Staff and atmosphere are warm. Prices are reasonable. Pay them a visit!

28/11/2025: Best coffee both drinking and beans, they sell items you'll find hard to get elsewhere like Kerry hands made stem ginger and syrup, herbal tea, all manner of health foods, a big plus is they know what there talking about and it's so friendly the only downside is at certain times it's very busy.

14/11/2025: Very friendly and knowledgeable staff, I've been here a few times and its always top class.

13/01/2026: My husband and I had a very disappointing meal and experience at the Grand Hotel on a weekday afternoon. I had received a voucher while recovering from an illness, so this visit was meant to be a quiet and special celebration for us both. We arrived before 3pm and were served soup at around 3pm, which was only lukewarm, but we ate it. After that, we waited approximately 45 minutes with no sign of our main courses and no staff anywhere near our table to ask for an update. The restaurant was not busy, with many empty tables. I eventually had to get up and speak to a supervisor, who was apologetic. At 4.10pm — over an hour after the soup — two main courses arrived, both seabass, despite us having ordered one fish and one beef dish. At that point we should have left, but we stayed. The fish was cold, though my husband ate it. My beef arrived even later, after my husband had finished eating. The roast beef was also cold, poorly presented, and unappetising. I could only manage half. The supervisor apologised again and offered complimentary coffee and dessert, which we appreciated. Sadly, the experience did not end there. The following day, both my husband and I became unwell with symptoms consistent with food poisoning - vomiting and diarrhoea, which was extremely upsetting. I am giving one star solely for the supervisor’s professionalism. Everything else was deeply disappointing, and we will not be returning or recommending the restaurant. The delays, incorrect orders, cold food, and lack of staff presence strongly suggest problems with organisation, staffing, timing, and kitchen standards, which I believe management should urgently review. A four-star rating for this restaurant is difficult to justify.

13/01/2026: I love this hotel. I’ve been a lover of Malahide for a long time but never stayed here until now. I stayed in an Exec Sea View Room, and while the room is kind of dated, I don’t mean that in a negative way. It was not in any way faded or in need of an upgrade, it was clean, elegant, with old world charm. A very comfortable bed, nice Rituals products in bathroom, chocolates and water and a gorgeous corner view of the sea. The staff are wonderful, a warm welcome at reception and in all of the bars and restaurants. The lobby area has a wonderful ambience, warm colours and vibe, busy with customers enjoying afternoon teas, I was told it’s recently been refurbished and they’ve done an excellent job as you could spend all day in here happily. The Marksman bar is also very inviting, can imagine spending a couple of hours in here with cocktails with great atmosphere and lighting. And you are right on the coast for a lovely walk along the sea or a couple of minutes from the main town which has lots to offer. I always like to stay in Malahide rather than Dublin centre, you are only 20/25 mins away by taxi if you want to go and only 12 minutes from the airport. It’s perfect and I can’t wait to return again. It’s a gem.

12/01/2026: The hotel itself is modern, clean, and visually impressive for the price. Rooms are spotless, beds are comfortable, and front office staff are friendly. Secure parking is available at €12 per day, which is acceptable and it's a very good parking with 24/7 CCTV ideal for a vehicle lover. However, the restaurant experience at Dinner was the negative part of our stay. The food quality was average at best, and the portion sizes were shockingly small for the prices charged. I ordered a Chicken Makhani curry that was meant to be served with rice. It arrived with roughly five small pieces of chicken and an insultingly small amount of rice (Handful). I wonder weather they wanted me to have the curry as a soup ? Chapathi was listed as an add-on but was barely a piece you could enjoy. When I asked for additional rice because the portion was clearly inadequate, I was charged an extra €3.80 for a small handful of plain boiled rice. My son was encouraged to order the two-course option for €8. We ordered a beef burger with skin-on chips, followed by a chocolate brownie with vanilla ice cream. The dessert never arrived. When inquired the service representative informed the kitchen is closed but said she will try , but stated not sure. Thinking I will not be charged, I said it ok.But was charged the full amount. We were told the kitchen was closed, despite having a confirmed reservation and being seated at 9:30 p.m. Why would they take a dinner reservation if they are closing the kitchen at 10.00 p.mband closing the billing ? We were informed we could not order anything additional because the bill had to be closed by 10:00 p.m. and the restaurant would shut. This is completely unacceptable and not what any guest should expect after making a reservation. Breakfast we booked are selves with the unlimited and rushed in by 9.00 a.m simply because we didn't want to be told the breakfast was over since we came at 10.00 a.m. But to be very frank the breakfast was very good. In summary, while the hotel itself is good, and would recommend for short or long stays, the restaurant service is very poor, poorly managed outside Breakfast hours and offers terrible value for money. I strongly do not recommend dining here under any circumstances other than breakfast.

09/01/2026: Hotel close enough to the airport, very nice staff.
