Our room stay in the Skylon was as usual very good. One problem was on our first morning Thursday there was dreadful noise outside our room. My husband checked and found workmen going to do work just outside our window. I went to reception to see if they could do anything for us they were extremely helpful and moved us straight away.

Our Go-to Place
This is our go- to hotel when we're visiting Dublin - easy access off the M50, really comfortable rooms and public spaces, friendly helpful staff and decent restaurant menu. So good at getting you a taxi quickly.

The property is convenient and walkable to other restaurants and shopping locations. However, it was not quiet. There was a lot of noise outside of the room, the room was very small, and the Wi-Fi was very slow.

The bus was easy to town and to airport but you must carry change. Hotel staff knew I arrived at 530am and got me in a room as soon as they could get one cleaned. Nice room and several restaurants and bars close by. Kennedys local pub was very friendly and had live music. Ivy across the street was great food as did cat and cage down the street. Converter for plus we’re only 4 euros from a machine in the lobby I would definitely return.

Not sure if room was non smoking or not but smelled very strongly. Not the cleanest room I’ve stayed in but ultimately it did the job for a one night stay near the airport.
