Ballybrack Holidays from £209

Location was amazing. But, the thermostat beeped 3 times every few minutes for days. The shower was tiny, I kept turning the water off with my elbow while showering. If you took a shower early in the morning to catch a full day tour the water was not hot. Later in the day it was very hot. When I booked I read that the rooms had washers and dryers. When we checked in we found out only 2 had them and it wasnt ours. We did laundry at a laundromat that ended up costing a $100 plus a taxi to and from. The refrigerator scraped the floor everytime we opened it. It wasn't quiet.

Hotel was clean and staff were friendly. Location was great. In walking distance of most pubs, restaurants, and activities. I liked that they monitored who came in the hotel after 9 or 10 at night. It made us feel safer. Breakfast was also great. Finding the parking garage was a bit tricky but glad the had it available. Would stay here again.

The room was okay, it had a bad smell (I think it was the carpet) but we got used to it. There was only bath towels, no hand towels. The view was amazing. The restaurant downstairs was amazing. We did not spend a lot of time in the hotel, and more in the surrounding area, so that smell did not take the score down too low :)

Wonderful team, from reception, to rooftop dinning (salads are insane) to cocktail team. Kind, considerate and so very professional!

Stayed at Cork Street in Dublin and honestly couldn’t believe the value for money. Although it’s usually student accommodation, they absolutely make it feel like a proper hotel experience during stays. The whole place was spotless, modern, and really well maintained. The room was spacious, very clean, and had everything you’d need for a comfortable stay. The bed was super comfortable, the bathroom was immaculate, and the overall standard was much higher than expected for the price. You can tell the staff really care about keeping the property welcoming and professional. Location-wise it’s excellent too, easy access to get ino Dublin city centre, great transport links, and plenty of shops, cafés, and restaurants nearby. It felt safe, quiet, and convenient throughout the stay. For anyone visiting Dublin and looking for affordable accommodation without compromising on comfort or cleanliness, I’d highly recommend Cork Street. It’s perfect and I’d definitely stay here again.
