Traveller from Liverpool stayed in October,2008

Guest Comment:
Really nice lively hotel, ideally situated in the centre of everything with great facilities. Rooms were very spacious,clean and recently decorated. Breakfast was good as well and nothing was too much trouble for the staff. We had the set evening meal to watch the entertainment one evening but although it was ok, wouldn't do that again. Would have been just as good (and cheaper)to stand at the bar and watch instead. Going on a girlie weekend we were up until the early hours most nights, and didnt mind that the music was playing loudly (you could hear it on the third floor)until midnight when it moved down to the basement, but that could irritate some people. Everyone in the party has said that they would definitely stay here again, and between us we have been to 5 other hotels around O'Connell st in the past and all agree this is the best.

Top Tip:
The Arlington basement nightclub is free entry to residents between 11.30 and midnight. They stamp your hand and you can then come and go as you please, walking past the queues to get in. We tended to start in Temple Bar early evening and end up back in the hotel bar before 11.30 for the free stamp to nightclub.
