The Christmas decorations were really lovely and all the staff were amazing
The description on the menu didn't fully match what we got. Ordered pan seared catch of the day and baked salmon came out.

Room was fabulous. We asked for a nice room as it was a special occasion and they certainly have is a good one. A large corner room with balcony, overlooking the park. Really loved our shirt stay here and will certainly be back.
Nothing springs to mind.

Perfect location. Beautiful reception area and rooms
The TV in the room kept switching off on us and the room could have done with an extra lamp, dark in some corners.

Beautiful central hotel, loved it. Great value for money.
Beautiful hotel, lovely staff, great location, car park was nearby, very central to Whelans, which was a very short walk away, also close to the shops, bars and cafes. Our room was quiet with a very comfortable bed, slept great. Delicious breakfast in the morning.

Fantastic location for shopping

Loved staying here. Location is amazing and the staff could not have been more helpful. We had a wonderful few days
Location is outstanding. Beds were soooo comfortable and nothing ‘pokey’ about the room! Which is great especially when you’re sharing with someone. Loved the shower too! Breakfast was one of the best I’ve had in a long time. Stayed in a hotel in the same location recently and we were given a menu and told to choose one thing….whereas here the choice was fantastic and so fresh.
There was a little bit of noise from the street below but honestly it wouldn’t deter me from going back in the slightest.

Near Perfect!
OMG, everything! Deluxe! We were a group of 7 and had 3 rooms next to each other. Staff were awesome. Bar downstairs was fantastic. We were only booked for 2 nights but changed our plans and stayed for 6, so that should say it all. Lots of good areas in walking distance. If we had actually worked out the public transport, we could have gotten around even better. I would definitely stay here again.
It is on the pricey side, more so for us because we had 3 rooms but you get what you pay for.

The Iveagh Gardens hotel is a superb hotel ideally located for trips to Dublin City Centre.
The location was perfect for a concert in the NCH and also for access to all amenities in the city centre. The room and facilities were also excellent.

The hotel exceeded expectations however we were not aware of the location and the clubs surrounding it meaning it was nosy at night. However, still enjoyed our stay.
Just make it more clear that it can be noisy
