    "lovely hotel"  by C from Dublin

    Great hotel in a fantastic location, right in the middle of everything, yet not noisy or anything. Hotel is maintained well, and the staff were generally very pleasant and helpful. Pity there is not free wifi though considering it's a business city centre hotel
