Very comfortable location, you can reach most of must-visit places in Dublin by foot. Apartments are always much better than just a hotel room - kitchenette makes your stay much more flexible. Beds were comfy and pillows nice, lots of towels. Washing machine was extra bonus! But the best and worth of 7* is the stuff- I have never met nicer and more helpful personnel than at this hotel - they answered all my questions and they were extremely helpful to facilitate ordering a birthday cake for my daughter (as we came to Ireland to celebrate her 18th birthday). Beautiful country with very friendly and nice people! Definitely recommend the place!
