Lack of data transfer

When one uses your reservation service, you ask for Name, address, Email, tel number, credit card etc Yet, when one goes to the hotel, most of the data is missing. In my recent booking, all they had was my name, arrival date, and the fact that it was booked. So, they went to great lengths, to get me to complete all the paper work again. Can you please transfer everything to the hotel ? This is not the first time it has happened. If you want to prove me wrong, book a reservation yourself, and tuen up at the hotel and see what happens.

Ireland getaway

This hotel is awesome the location was perfect for us. We were able to get a bus right in front of hotel to go anywhere in the city. The staff is great they will get you directions to what you want make recommendations to places and sell bus cards. We will definitely go back to Ireland again and use this hotel when we do.

Would stay here again

Good value for the price for a middle of the road hotel. Decent location in South Dublin with a bus stop right in front. Hotel staff was great! I had lots of questions and they had lots of answers. They helped plan outings and gave lots of helpful tips on tours etc.. They also arranged taxi's when needed, and let us check in before check-in time as our flight arrived early. There's also a pub/restaurant in the hotel with good breakfasts. Also, there's free parking. We kept our rental parked most of the time as the public transportation was easy to use. No complaints.

Nightlife tip: Short drive from hotel

Do not even attempt to drive and park in the city center. Crazy traffic, especially if you're not used to driving on the other side of the road. Plus, parking is VERY limited downtown.Taxi from hotel to the city center is apprx 15 euros one way. Bus is approx 2 euro and is easy to use.

I have stayed a numbered of times

I have stayed a numbered of times this year in the Tara Towers. The premises is showing some signs of wear and tear. However, the location is excellent, good eateries near by, very close to UCD, RDS, Aviva Stadium. Free car parking. The hotel and rooms are clean, rooms are spacious and plenty of hot water. Complementary tea and coffee in the room. Service excellent. During my most recent stay, I checked in, to discover that the room was near roof-located air conditioning system, outside my window. As I'm a light sleeper, I asked the receptionist if it was possible to relocate my room. she did so immediately and was very pleasant about doing so. I shall definitely stay again.

Better than we hoped

We chose the Tara Towers as it was in the right location for the car touring we wanted to do south of Dublin. We checked in early (early flight into Dublin) with no problems. Room large, clean and comfortable but overheated so we had to open windows as it couldn't be adjusted. Food, bar and service were all excellent, and ample parking which is a bonus in Dublin! Have already recommended the hotel to others.

Shopping tip: Short drive from hotel

There's a Tesco in the Merrion Shopping Centre just down the road (free underground carpark)for Irish goodies to take back.

We were very happy with our stay.

We were very happy with our stay. The staff were friendly and very efficient. The hotel is very convenient for access to the city centre and south Dublin and is well served by both a bus stop just outside and the rail service in walking distance. The price was very good for what we got. The room was fine with a wonderful view out over Dublin Bay. However, it was very warm so we needed to keep the window open and there was constant traffic noise through the night. But apart from that we have no complaints.

Average 3 star hotel situated

Average 3 star hotel situated on the coast with good bus links to downtown Dublin and the airport. Normal Irish breakfast, but no fresh fruit, only canned grapefruit and oranges. Pleasant pub within the hotel. WiFi free of charge in the lobby. Very limited choice of TV programmes.
