They told us we missed breakfast the first morning and said it end at 11. The next day we came down at 10:40 and they said on Monday it ends at 10:30. So we never ate the breakfast. The room was average and not worth the $2,300 I paid for two nights.

The Gresham Rocks!

Our "go-to" hotel in Dublin - close to attractions and handy to the Airport Coach. The breakfasts are beyond expectation. Thanks for another great Dublin experience on the way home from a mediterranean cruise and visit with family and friends in Northern Ireland. A great conclusion to our vacation.

Lovely hotel, excellent location

Myself and two friends stayed at The Gresham this summer for a girls night away. We had a lovely time in the hotel and couldn't fault it at all. The room was a good size, plenty of space for us and our luggage. It was quiet and we had no issues. The staff were lovely and stored our bags for us upon check-in (we arrived early morning, room wasn't available until later in the day). The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. We will definitely stay at the Gresham again.
