Excellent night in Dublin.
We found staff extremely welcoming, helpful and generous with their time and patience. The room was very spacious and well fitted out with tea/ coffee/ fridge/ hairdryer, etc. Lighting was excellent and allowed all of us to fall asleep at differnt times. The height of the bath was a problem for my wife to step into to shower but otherwise the bathroom was excellent. The food was lovely but a rahter large protion (no complaint from some in our party).

wonderful stay just north of city centre
Great stay and so convenient to Dublin sites! The staff were wonderful... manager Dermot was so committed to guest satisfaction that he was directing parking during a particularly busy night upon our arrival, ensuring everyone had a space and felt welcome to the hotel. Room was everything we needed - so appreciate the fridge - and the property is beautiful. Enjoyed Drumcondra pubs and had an easy ride down to the Liffey for all our touring. Would definitely stay again!

Stay at Skyon Hotel was excellent. Very convenient to bus route. We found Bar Manager had very poor personality in making us feel welcome. Every other member of staff was excellent in this field.

This is our favorite go to hotel when we visit Dublin as it's only a short drive from the motorway, easy to get a taxi or other transport when required. Staff are extremely helpful, friendly and courteous.

The Skylon Hotel was a nice little Irish Hotel. The staff is very friendly and the amenities are nice. The lounge area is great for having a drink or talking with friends. My dad, brothers, and I went there for our first trip to Ireland and we loved it. Absolutely wonderful.
