Ruby Molly Hotel Dublin
Everything as you’d want it. Didn’t really enjoy the tea & coffee idea of going down the corridor to the galley. Breakfast was good but a bit pricey at 22 euros

Arlington Hotel O'Connell Bridge
The room needed a little bit of TLC but otherwise was a very nice room, clean and tidy. The staff were very nice, polite and courteous and the breakfast was to die form. I ate so much breakfast I didn't need any lunch. If you asked a member of staff a question they would try their best to answer ...

Great staff especially Markho and Martin (sorry about spelling), fantastic location, comfortable beds. Wish there was a small fridge and easier to see the mirror to dry our hair lol.
