Ballyboy Holidays from £330

Our stay at Buswells was adequate. The best part of this hotel is the location, right in the heart of Dublin and steps away from all the tourist attractions and hip neighbourhoods. However, the rest of the hotel experience was pretty mediocre. The room we got was tiny (Comfort Double is a rather flimsy euphemism for cramped and uncomfortable). The headboard of our bed was damaged and flaking, the “view” from our room was non-existent, the air circulation was extremely poor and made the room feel incredibly hot and stuffy. The hotel room was pretty pricey and didn’t even include breakfast. Other than the location, I cannot in good conscience recommend this hotel to anyone.

I loved that they had an ice machine and water dispensers in the halls. Good location.

The property is a little dated. No elevator. Great beach view. Very good restaurant and bar. Wide selection of food styles. Great breakfast. Small bathroom.

Incomparable city centre location just off Grafton Street, opposite Bruxelles. Have stayed multiple times. Great studio apartments, spacious and really well appointed. Ideal for a weekend stay in the city . Cannot recommend highly enough.

Our room was very clean, the bed comfortable and the staff were kind. Unfortunately, our stay was ruined by the on-site construction that was going on in the courtyard of the building all day starting at or before 8am and going all the way until 5. It was EXTREMELY loud and you could not rest or focus on any work. There was no where to put our bags nor anywhere to put our things in the bathroom. While the room was pretty, the design was not functional. The pool area, which is actually one giant hot tub, was quite dirty. At the end of the stay I mentioned the noise and was given a small credit about 1/8th of what I paid for the stay.
