Clayton Hotel Dublin Airport Central

Clayton Hotel Dublin Airport Central

8/10 Good
"I experienced a real difference between the restaurant staff (wonderful as ever) and the front desk experience. The young woman who checked us in immediately assumed that we were at the wrong hotel, saying that there is another Airport Clayton nearby. (I know, I used to stay there.) I also used to stay at this hotel when it was the Radisson, and there is now quite a difference front of house. Anyway, she found the booking and all was well, but it wasn't the welcome that I had anticipated. Things got considerably better after the reception experience. Parking, rooms, dinner and breakfast were as good as ever."
