Hi Guys, The location was excellent, my fiance was competing in the Dublin Marathon, so we had to walk to Merrion Square which only took 15 mins from the hotel, also beside many restaurants in Ballsbridge all walking distance. The food in the hotel was delicious and generous, the rooms were large, clean and warm, couldn't ask for better, excellent value, we will definitely stay here again, whether it is for a sporting event, romantic break or even shopping, great hotel.
