Hotels near Ship Shape Kids Play, Dublin

Superb hotel that used to called jurys inn but bought over by Leonardos only small complaint supplier of breakfast sausages has changed and no boiled eggs out for breakfast 15 min wait for boiled eggs if requested, I know Dublin is an international city but never spoke to one Irish person in hotel either reception cleaning staff or at breakfast, why is this ? Superb location and staff are helpfull so a stay here will enhance your dublin trip

Point A Hotel, what can I say. Well presented inside and out, the access to bedrooms locked behind a key card, the bar and breakfast area also immaculate. As you enter your bedroom it is well organised and has everything you need. The bed was a firm mattress but that was perfect, a surprised samsung 43” TV was waiting to be watched from the wall. With LED strip lights and mode lights all around the room and a decent air con to go with. The room had a safe but i never needed to use it. The one LED strip light on the curtain track was losing its stick and i had to reattach it everytime the curtains where opened. Speaking of which the arrangement I felt was weird as it typically goes curtain than net curtain from inside looking out, this hotel went net curtain then curtain. Maybe you do get some rooms with a view, i most certainly did not, considering how close it is to the heart of the city and Temple Bar. My window view consisted of an opposite rooms window and exterior build walls and a steep drop down below. If you are looking for a well presented hotel with decent sleep quality, this hotel is for you, if you are on your own this hotel may not be for you, due to its lack of hot meals at breakfast and throughout the day. For a hotel at £180 a night, you could easily get a hotel with a hot food breakfast and evening meals nearby, the price structure like the rest of Dublin is overpriced for what it is, one of the cheaper priced hotels but still not worth the price. The breakfast was ”okay” you had a selection of 2 cheeses, 3 sandwich meats, 3-5 pastry options like pain au chocolat, croissants, scones, sausage rolls and mini bread rolls / baguettes. Was some cereal options too, a choice between orange juice, apple juice and ice water, then your usual hot drinks choice. It was all fresh and well presented, i just wish it had a cooked option too. In terms of location, ignoring the building opposite that was a form whiskey shop. It was great, right around the corner from O'connell Street, where it was incredibly busy, multiple shopping centre esque buildings along each side street, with id say 10 minutes you can be in Temple Bar area on the South Side of the River by foot. With such easy access to trams, buses, taxis near enough on your doorstep, and the far enough away from Temple Bar to not hear it, but close enough to go there was ideal. In quiet traffic from the airport you can make it in 15minutes. So to summarise, it was a good, but overpriced

This hotel is incredible and I’m so happy I took a chance and made a reservation despite that I wasn’t sure as it was my first time visiting Dublin. The hospitality, the facilities and the location right in the heart of the city was PERFECT! They even help me schedule my tours and coordinate everything! My birthday was a Wednesday and the reception team sent me a sweet note, a box of chocolates and tickets for complementary drinks. This detail I will forever remember it and a special thank you to Dylan and Karen for showing up to my room and surprise me on my bday. Hope everyone can get to experience what I did this week. Thank you, Thank you Thank you!!! Going back home feeling happy, blessed and in love with this beautiful country. I will be back for sure 🇮🇪 Take care, Carla from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷

Great location in Temple bar but without all the noise. Check in took a little longer that I would like but we arrived at peak time. Friendly staff and very clean room.

The location is excellent, located in the bustling area of ​​the city center, close to the Dublin Spire, the River Liffey, etc., and only more than 100 meters away from the airport bus stop, which is very convenient. Breakfast can be added at the store, which is rich and delicious, recommended.

Definitely recommend the theatre package, bed, breakfast and pre theatre dinner, then pickup by taxi to show, taxi back to hotel also, plus tickets to a show. Will definitely be coming back, staff were so friendly and helpful and even though our room wasn’t air conditioned, it had two fans which we couldn’t have survived without

From booking our stay to checkout, our entire experience was excellent. This is a 4 star, airport hotel, yes... but it's park location, proximity to the city and decor that would be at home in a gorgeous boutique hotel makes for an altogether elevated experience. Nadia could not have done more for us when we called to book and she really set the standard from the get go. Check in was smooth and pleasant and while the room was probably one of the last ones that hasn't been renovated it was huge, clean, comfortable, stylish (maybe very slightly dated) and had everything we could possibly need. The bed was huge and extremely comfortable, the shower pressure was good and the toiletries were all lovely. The little room snacks were also high quality and very nice. Every other member of staff we interacted with was extremely professional and personable, especially the waiting staff in the bar, where were had 2 very nice coffees. The breakfast was also extremely good and checkout was quick and painless. A taxi to the Grafton St area will set you back about €20 and the number 16 bus goes by, just outside the park very regularly. The parking facilities are excellent and the airport shuttle is incredibly convenient, modern and very clean. It's such a good all rounder. I could not recommend this hotel highly enough. I think this is the best value 4 Star in Dublin.

In my opinion the Marlin hotel is more like a very fancy hostel than a traditional four star hotel. That comes as a bit of a surprise if you are not expecting it! On the plus side it’s very clean, very unique style, friendly staff and relaxed atmosphere. The cons are that the king rooms are just too small for two people. Travellers with a lot of luggage will struggle. The breakfast was average for the price. The dining option is bar food only. The high price tag is for the excellent location, not the accommodation. We did really enjoy our stay but would consider other options with more spacious rooms for our next stay in Dublin City centre.

设施：I did enjoy every second during my stay~ The room is spacious and the staff were friendly and helpful:) I would come back and stay again when I visit Dublin next time. The location is very convenient to access different scenery spots in Dublin.

We spent a comfortable 3 nights here. The rooms are not large but adequate for a short stay. Toilet/shower modern fittings and good. We enjoyed the Nespresso machine for a morning coffee in the room. The hotel decor is vibrant, modern and ”full” but I liked it. The decor in the bar and dining area is modern and bold. The staff were especially welcoming and helpful. The location is a bit out of town, so quieter with a local-feel.
