It's worth recommending. The room is very new. The breakfast is delicious. The service staff are very good. It's just that the UnionPay card in the hotel cannot be used by the machine. It's next to the river. There is a supermarket and a restaurant next door. The slippers are also very good and very soft

Stayed there when passing through Dublin one night. Hotel is really nice -location superb along the river Liffey -walking distance to most tourist spots. Staff on check in and out excellent -could not have ben friendlier, Hotel decor really cool. Room absolutely lovely -plus very quiet-decor superb, great tv channels, great lighting etc. Only issues were with Wifi ( hard to connect -then in the morning no wifi) -Aircon very noisy -its Ireland so not necessary anyhow-switched off and opened window. I did not eat in the Hotel as had travelled from Asia and on a different time zone food wise--but food menu looked superb and reasonably priced. I will stay there again

The Merrion is a Hallmark of service and sheer quality. We arrived to be greeted by a friendly concierge and the news that our room had been upgraded to a junior suite. Lunch in the Cellar bar was an absolute joy and friendly, well clued in staff made the experience more special. The room was fabulous, with every comfort you could imagine. The bed was so comfortable, as were the couches.I cannot speak too highly about the service at this wonderful hotel.

This hotel is the best hotel in Dublin. It is said that the Prime Minister also stayed in this hotel when he visited Ireland. The environment of the hotel is very good, and the lobby is decorated in a grand manner. The bedding in the room is very comfortable, and the bathroom is not big but very convenient, comfortable and clean. The lighting is not very glaring, and the hair dryer is not in the bathroom. There is a mirror in front of the desk in the room, so you can sit in front of the desk and blow your hair in front of the mirror, which is quite user-friendly. It is surrounded by the embassy district of Dublin, which is safe and quiet. It is a hotel worth staying in.

My husband and I was greeted by a warm and friendly night auditor, Mr Yassin, who assisted us and made our check-in very smooth. The other staff at the reception and the housekeeping lady we met were also helpful. Our queen room is nicely decorated, with good amenities and overlooking the river. The bed is comfortable but the pillows were too soft. Overall, we enjoyed our one night stay at the hotel!

The hotel is located in a very convenient yet quiet place. Easy walk to all the tour sights. We did encounter some booking problems. On trip.com website we booked a room with 1 queen bed and 1 twin bed room but when we arrived at hotel, it only showed 1 queen bed room in their system, hotel agreed to add a twin bed for us however, it took 3 calls and few hours until the bed appeared. Breakfast is great and hotel common area is beautiful.

The hygiene is acceptable. The hotel parking lot is not easy to find. It is in the middle of the building and the parking lot is free. The room does not provide water, disposable slippers, toothbrushes and other items. There is a convenience cabinet in the rest area where you can buy snacks and drinks. Due to the geographical location, the center of the square can be noisy in the middle of the night, but it is generally okay.

Second time staying in this hotel. The location is South of the river but only 15mins walk to most tourist attractions, Guinness Storehouse, Dubhlinn Gardens and Temple Bar. The hotel is clean with plenty of staff to assist and breakfast is plentiful. Can be busy on a weekend but that is like any hotel in Dublin City Centre. The hotel is just round the corner from the Aircoach bus stop for travel to and from the airport.

A brilliant hotel perfectly located within Dublin. Next to trinity college, this hotel is a stones throw from all the tourist hotspots but equally the location is lovely and quiet, especially at night. The hotel has been recently renovated to a high standard. The beds are super comfy and the rooms are well equipped. The service by the staff was top notch and the exclusive parking around the corner on a private, gated carpark for €15 per night was an added bonus. The breakfast was really tasty, a great selection of cooked and cold food to choose from and the coffee was also equally as good. Will be using this hotel as my go to the next time I find myself in Dublin.

There is no commercial facilities around the hotel, but there is a golf course nearby. There is a park about 500 meters away. The environment is beautiful, comfortable, pleasant and very quiet. The hotel breakfast is very rich and the coffee tastes good. The gym is well-equipped and the swimming pool is clean. The room is clean and tidy, with bottled water. The front desk service attitude is good, and the restaurant service is warm, thoughtful and meticulous. I will definitely stay here next time.

The location was great for my purpose, I had some business to attend to in Fonthill and the hotel was a stone's throw away. Still needed to drive but it was a 5min drive. It is also walking distance from Liffey Valley shopping mall. Its a typical large mall with decent restaurants and a cinema. The hotel is connected to a fitness centre (like a health club) and it offers a gym and swimming pool. Entry is free for hotel guests. Go early, the pool gets crowded after 8.30am. There is ample parking and it's available at a concessionary rate. My only grouse was the lack of toiletries provided. Thankfully I had brought my own set. The toilet only has hand soap and shampoo (but the dispenser was almost empty). Other than that, the room was spacious, clean and the bed was quite comfortable. Worth staying at if you need to be in that area.

Generator Hostel Dublin presents a fantastic location, which is undoubtedly its biggest selling point. Situated right in the heart of the city, it's an ideal starting point for anyone looking to explore all that Dublin has to offer. The convenience of having many popular attractions within walking distance is a huge plus for tourists. However, during my stay, I couldn't help but notice that the hostel is in need of some maintenance and upgrades. The facilities, while functional, seemed a bit worn and in need of a refresh. Some areas appeared dated, and a bit of a facelift would certainly enhance the overall ambiance of the place. Despite these maintenance concerns, Generator Hostel Dublin still has its merits, especially if you're on a budget. The location alone makes it a viable choice, and if you can overlook some of the upkeep issues, you'll find a reasonably priced option for your stay in the heart of Dublin.
