Just returned from a stay at the Clontarf Castle Hotel, and while it wasn't a horrible experience, we did expect so much more from a hotel that bills itself as 4-star. Visually, this is a beautiful property and the rooms are nicely decorated and modern. It's also a very clean hotel. But that's really where it all ends. I guess... more

If you read Jimmyjangle review as the same happened to me yet the hotel says this was a one off. Booked online and recieved email back which im sure counts as a contract, however i was phoned back two days later and told that the price isnt available and there was a "technical glitch which wasn't there fault" and i... more

Dear Guest, Due to a technical error on our booking engine for 24 hours, a rate was shown on our website of €12.80 instead of €128.00. The rate of €12.80 showed for every day that we were really selling at €128.00. We received some bookings based on this rate and as such contracted all guests as soon as possible who...

I also booked this hotel at a special rate that was advertised through their website. It showed all the details and exactly how much discount I was getting and then gave me a confirmed reservation. They took a deposit from my credit card straight away. They then told me that their system was corrupt and they would not honour the... more

I saw what was a good rate for a two night stay in there hotel so made the reservation using credit card. Confirmation arrived inside ten minutes but noticed breakfast was not included so rang them up that afternoon (Saturday) to be told that there is nobody to help me with this and would have to ring back next week.... more

First day: Outside was so pretty & even checking in the lobby, however it was too modernized and upscale. It was extremely hard to find. The staff did not take us to the room, which means we were not shown how to use the thermostat or run the lights (must put your room key in the slot for them to... more

This hotel is located in a nice residential neighborhood. Unfortunately, that means if you need or want anything not available in the hotel, you have to walk 15-30 minutes. This was a big issue, since we got ill from eating beef at the Knight Bar and were sick most of our trip (the hotel didn't take it off our bill... more

Extremely individual hotel and well fitted out. Our room was not too large but adequately sized with 2 easy chairs and table as well as a stand chair for the dressing table (all to often there is only one chair to acompany the table) The staff were all extremely pleasant and the food in the bar in the evening was... more

We spent a monday night booking on the hotel website for $146/night (the weekends were higher). This is one of the most beautiful hotels we stayed on our trip. The room is totally modern with lights in headboard of bed and plasma built in on dresser. Everything was clean, comfortable and the bathroom was awesome. A young polish man checked... more
