The hotel is in a great location. Very close to the Aviva and the dart station. The hotel is very old but it's clean. There is a fabulous receptionist called Alisso who is extremely helpful and cannot do enough for clients. The air-conditioning was old and kept going off but there were plenty of windows to open.
Basement room that was dusty and stuffy as hadn’t been aired or vacuumed in a while.
Bedding had bad damp smell. Very thin flimsy curtains so the street lights shine in as you sleep. Awful experience and I had to cancel remainder of stay.

We stayed here for one night to attend a concert. Personally, this isn’t a four star hotel for me. On arrival we were lucky enough to get parked in the drive, two spaces there and metered parking on the street outside. The front of the building looks unkempt and overgrown.
No check in, all details for your room etc sent to you before hand. Very easy instructions to follow and there is a reception downstairs although we did not have cause to visit.
Decor in shared spaces beautiful. Our room wasn’t as nice. Wallpaper pealing off walls, dust, wall plugs not completely secure. The room was dated and worn. Double doors in our room with were not secure, lock appeared to be from a flimsy bolt at the top of the door. If someone had given it a hard pull it would’ve easily opened, which is a safety issue. Bathroom was modern with good shower. Kettle and coffee machines with tea coffee etc available.
Overall the room was clean and served our purpose to sleep in before leaving early the next morning. I don’t feel this is a four star hotel and the photos on their website/apps definitely do not match the room we stayed in.
Butlers Townhouse worked out pretty good... less expensive than the other places in Dublin and close to my friends and Ballsbridge, Dublin 4 (including Aviva Stadium). They operate a little differently and don't have a typical Front Desk. Once you figure that out, it was easy to come and go. There is coffee in the room which is nice and TV. Very simple.
