Stayed here because we had a rental car and liked the free parking option. Also, we're walkers and didn't mind that it's about a mile to the Liffey. The restaurant here was crowded every night and prices looked reasonable but we walked into town and ate there. We didn't use the car in the city at all. Major pros: price,... more

The hotel was average. Not far from Center of the City. The restaurant was excellent. Room were small. No air conditioning and twin beds are not my favorite. Limited tv stations. Front desk was not very helpful. Internet access could be free or less expensive. more

This was a good hotel to stay at in Dublin. It is about a 10-15 minute walk from the main tourist shopping and attraction areas and is located in a safe and upscale part of town. It was a little hard to find but has turned out to be a nice hotel to stay at. more

This is a very good hotel in an excellent location. Five of us (using 3-rooms), experienced none of the problems mentions by some other travellers, and in our opinion, the hotel is far better than many other 3-star hotels at which we have stayed. Our bedrooms were immaculately clean as were the bathrooms. The staff were most helpful, and the... more

I stayed at the Grand Canal Hotel in Dublin for one night. It is easy to reach with the shuttle busses. The room was perfect: spacious, clean and quiet. The service from the staff was excellent, too. I can highly reccomend this place. more

I stayed in the hotel on the 28th of June with my boyfriend while we attended a concert in the RDS. Lovely hotel and our room was very nice and large. Having read other reviews I wasn't expecting a lot to be honest but it was a grand hotel as the name would suggest. All the staff that we encountered... more

My husband and I stayed at the Grand Canal Hotel for three nights before moving on to Galway. This was our first visit to Ireland and we were impressed by the service we received at this establishment. Our room was positioned at the front of the hotel but it was not noisy and we were able to enjoy a good... more

I just came back from staying here over the weekend with my boyfriend. Location was really convenient. We took the AirCoach fron the hotel (12 euro return) and got off at the Schoolhouse stop (~ 20 minutes). The hotel was a few minutes walk from there. Leave for about 45 minutes on your way back to the airport though because... more

A good... more

My husband and I recently stayed at the Grand Canal Hotel. From the pictures online we were expecting great things. It didn't take long for us to realize our expectations were a little too high. Overall, it is a nice looking hotel. The rooms are nice and clean, when the staff actually cleans the room. On many occasions, we would... more
