• Airport shuttle service good, counter staff professional and efficient.
• Restaurant menu while serving good food is limited.

“For convenience of travelers this is good-close to airport about 2-3 km. The rooms were clean and comfortable; lounge was very nice and restaurant had nice setting and good service although limited menu. Being newly renamed it did not show up on GPS in car and website directions to get to it not all that clear for visitors. Going to airport directly and taking shuttle service turned out the best alternative in that regard.”

• The shuttle to the hotel was convenient. The bed was comfortable.
• The bottled water that they had for me was already used. When I called for another, they didn't bring any.

“I could have paid much less elsewhere and wish that I had.”

• The park and trails across the street with swans, ducks and a gazebo.
• The over priced restaurant inside the hotel and no check in until 2 p.m.

“To get from Dublin Airport to the Crowne plaza, a shuttle service is provided. If you arrive before 2pm, you may leave your luggage but not check into your room. (Check ins are after 2pm, unless you have paid for the previous day.)I was traveling with another person but had only reserved one room, so we requested a room with 2 beds, which we received. Every person I had any sort of interaction with was extremely kind and accommodating. The room itself was spacious and nicely decorated. It was clean and sunny, which large windows. The bathroom was extremely large and bright, with both a shower and a bath tub. There is a decently equipped gym on the 1st floor, but running outside is also an option. The concierge has maps with 1 and 3 mile loops on them, and you can request extra water and towels. There is a beautiful park across the street (still on hotel property) with a large pond, trails, a gazebo and, sadly, a visible stadium. To get into Dublin, you can call a taxi (around 20 euros) or take the local bus, which has a stop near the hotel (1.60 euros). There is a wonderful little Italian restaurant called 'Little Venisia' within walking distance that was perfectly acceptable and filled with locals. For breakfast, there is a cafe inside, serving pastries, coffee, juice and yogurt.”

• It wasn't as close to the airport as expected and had to wait a long time for the hotel shuttle bus.

• Upscale, efficient, good location close to airport.
• Expensive breakfast not included in room price, expensive parking. Expensive internet access.

“Good business hotel with free shuttle to airport. Be aware that breakfast is an additional us$20 and parking is us$10 per night. Access to the internet is us$22 per day on the TV if you do not have a laptop. This is very expensive when compared to $1.50 per hour at local internet cafes. No hotel transportation to tourist areas of Dublin available. Only options are expensive taxis or inefficient public bus.”

“After spending two weeks in "over priced", dirty, very small & over-rated Italian hotels; the Dublin airport Crown Plaza was a beautiful sight to behold.”

• Cleanliness.
• Construction outside room, forgot toiletries after being asked, long wait for airport shuttle.

“It was a nice stay. Our only issue was the amount of time we waited at the airport for the shuttle to arrive to take us to the hotel, and the wait at the reception desk. Otherwise, the hotel is in a great location for grabbing a bus to Dublin, has a beautiful park, and a very convenient restaurant.”

• Good quality furnishings, friendly staff, comfortable beds.
• A lot of extra charges for movies, internet etc. Food was expensive.

“Hotel located 5 minutes by free shuttle from Dublin airport in quiet parkland. Not much within walking distance, next door to a new holiday inn express. Pleasant lobby\bar area, public areas where comfortable. Bedroom was nicely furnished with every possible necessity. Shower pressure was ok. Overall perfect hotel for a stopover. An inclusive breakfast would be nice.”

• Superb comfortable rooms and great on site restaurants and bar.
• Bad location for leisure tourist travelers.

“I stayed at the Crowne Plaza Dublin Airport hotel in August 2006. I received a great price compared to other hotels in the same class. The rooms and common areas were superb. The Reception staff was ok, but the bar staff was excellent. Not only did they provide great service, they also answered all our questions about the area and how to get to places in the city center. It was a very nice hotel, convenient to the airport, but a little out of the way for sightseeing.”

• Great location.
• Difficulty finally getting into proper room.

“This is a great stay when you are heading out of Dublin Airport. Great overall value. They were going through some major construction next door when we were there, but hopefully that will be completed shortly (as it was a little loud fairly early in the morning).”

• Clean, new rooms. Park like setting.
• Undergoing construction work.

“New, conference hotel. Handsome lobby, comfortable bar. Very close to airport, so convenient if an early flight into or out of Dublin. Bus near hotel will take you downtown, and can walk two blocks to movie, McDonald's (yes, their everywhere) pizza hut, etc. Although bar-restaurant was quite good. Free parking if you are starting a drive/tour of Ireland. Both Aer Lingus and Ryan Air have connections from Dublin to much of Europe, and this hotel would be highly recommended if one needed a day to acclimatize oneself to European time zone. Free transportation to/from hotel from airport.”

“Nice hotel, modern, very comfortable beds. They advertised free coffee in the morning for guests but when you went down to actually get your coffee there was none. Food in the restaurant was extremely expensive 21 Euro for continental breakfast.”

• Free 24 hour airport shuttle, gorgeous hotel.
• Not close to shopping/entertainment.

“We stayed at this hotel at the end of 10 days in Italy and 4 days in Ireland, and this was the nicest of a very nice bunch. I wish we had more time to spend there, as we got in late (9pm) and had to go to the airport at 4:30 am. The room was large, we took pictures of the bathroom as it was such a great use of space we want to duplicate in our house. Great view of a park out the windows, and in a nice and quiet location while still close to the airport. The 24 hour airport shuttle was perfect - ran every 30 minutes, and was waiting with an easy call from the airport. Lobby looked great, etc.”

• The hotel was very clean, had nice surroundings for running/walking, was close to the bus to Dublin center, &was close & had a shuttle to the airport.
• The first night of our stay we arrived very late and they had resold our room!

“This hotel is great if you want to stay away from the city center (and take a 30 min bus ride to Dublin center) and within 5-10 min to the airport. The accommodations are great for business travelers, with an excellent executive level. There are also excellent restaurants (bar/pub, dinner/breakfast, and coffee bar).”

• A little hard to find - - could use some signs.

“Very nicely appointed, modern hotel close to the airport, with shuttle to and from Dublin airport. Rooms were larger than expected and elegantly appointed. Wonderful bar area and restaurant. Considering what we paid for other hotels in Ireland, this was definitely worth the price.”

“This was a good hotel. There was a fitness room, but I did not see a pool or sauna. The restaurants were nice and the food was good. The staff were very nice. The location is about 10 minutes from the airport and 30 to 40 minute bus ride to center of Dublin.”

“Attractive hotel with nicely appointed rooms including terrycloth robes and full amenities. Transportation available from the airport. Some construction going on at the site as they are expanding, but the only inconvenience was that the hotel car park was physically not adjacent to the hotel.”
