Really great location if you're heading to airport or want to trot around town. Wish they kept gym open longer 7.30pm is nuts to be closed ...Bar had nice selection and food was good. Too was nice but bed had been roughly made which was messy. Bathroom great.

A perfect hotel for tourists or people traveling to Ireland. Walking distance to 3Arena, EPIC, and the convention center. Walkable and surrounded by dining options. The room was great - quiet, comfortable, with a gorgeous balcony. The view was stunning, and the check out is noon - perfect for adjusting to a bit of jet lag. I will definitely be staying here.

Everything was wonderful

I stayed three nights at the Spencer with my adult daughter. I took the Dublin Express bus from the airport and it was fast and inexpensive. The bus stopped across the street from the hotel so very convenient. All the staff were great and accommodating and they lent us umbrellas on a day when it rained. The Luas was a two minute walk behind the hotel so very convenient to transit and get around to anywhere we wanted to go but we found it was not that far to walk either so we often just walked. It took us 17 minutes to walk from the hotel to Trinity College and it was an easy, flat walk. We booked a basic room but found it to be very spacious with lots of natural light and a separate sitting area. Beds were extremely comfortable. I also liked being just a little outside the city/action as it was quieter at night. And there was a Tesco express a couple blocks away to get snacks and bottled water. I also feel the price was good for this level of accommodation. One of my daughters lives in Smithfield and I looked at the Maldron and the Hendrick. Neither are as nice as the Spencer yet they were both more $. So, overall, very happy with this choice and would definitely look at staying at the Spencer again

The family room was great! It was very spacious and clean. We loved the balcony, as well. The pool was great for the kids, although there were limited hours. Our room was very hot, and the manager confirmed that the heating system was broken, so we had to move rooms mid stay. He comped our breakfast one morning. We were able to easily walk everywhere and there are many dining options across the river.

Handy for concerts.

Good hotel to stay in if you're attending 3Arena. Pool and gym facilities for Dublin Port area. Local carpark available for €25 for 24hrs. If you're not having breakfast at the hotel Gerard's Deli just over the bridge is lovely. Urban Brewery is also good for drinks and food.
