Check-in = horrible - we did not feel "welcome" at all. Room - overall, very good - a coupe of issues - but nothing major - just disappointing issues for a 4-star hotel. Bar food - not great - was not hot enough - felt very "rushed". Check-out - whilst not as bad as check-in - it was still not great. ...

Beautiful beach ideal for walking

3/5 - Okay

Very limited in amenities, you have to eat in the hotel as there are no restaurants in Portmarnock and the nearest are in Malahide or Howth.

The beach at Portmarnock was so beautiful. If we had good weather in this country you wouldn't want to go anywhere else!
