“Great hotel.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 16, 2013

I stay here a few times a year. I love that the rooms are so quiet and peaceful. You could walk to the city centre (abut 25 - 35 minutes) but there is plenty do around Ballsbridge (nice little bars). Te service at the Four Seasons is pretty special and that is why I remain a customer. The only time I felt let down is when I stayed there over Christmas 2011 and felt the hote was understaffed and the service was not up to its usual high standards. I am used to staying in hotels a lot and this is world class.

“Terrific hotel in the suburbs”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed March 16, 2013

The Four Seasons is a great hotel with great service. We booked rooms with breakfast, and the breakfast was outstanding. There was a massive breakfast buffet, with a wide variety of pastries, breads, cereals, juices, and hot items. As part of the B&B package, one could also chooses items from the menu, like the typical Irish breakfast, which was excellent.

The concierge was also excellent, as well, and was very knowledgeable about the tourist attractions in Dublin.

The rooms were huge, especially by European standards, and they were furnished with comfortable beds, chairs, and couches. Overall, the lodging experience was very comfortable.

The only drawback about the hotel was the location; however, its location in the suburbs made for a very restful break. On the other hand, the hotel was fairly far way from the town center.

We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel, and we hope to return for another visit.

“Luxurious hotel in a nice location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 15, 2013

The Four seasons Dublin is a very luxurious hotel well located on the south side of Dublin city next-door to the (RDS) Royal Dublin Showgrounds and within walking distance of Landsdowne road.
The hotel decor has been changed since we last stayed in the hotel which was over two years ago it is now quite contemporary in the open/main lounge not to our liking we preferred the traditional style which in our opinion was warmer and more welcoming.
On this occasion we stayed for two nights with bed and breakfast and we had an evening meal on our first night which I have to say was very good well presented very tasty and served in a smaller restaurant than usual after asking our waitress why the small restaurant she explained because it was Tuesday night and quiet the atmosphere in this restaurant was very good.
As usual our bedroom was the now to be expected Four Seasons standard IE pure luxury spotlessly clean beautifully furnished and with a bathroom fit for a King & Queen.
The breakfast again Four seasons best with a large selection of foods to satisfy any taste and as much as you could possibly eat served to your table by excellent staff at your beck and call at every turn round.
We had a couple of drinks each night in the bar and found the prices just a little bit higher than the normal in the area but again your paying for the surroundings and service which we didn't mind.
All and all I would highly recommend the Four seasons Dublin and hopefully we will get back someday soon.

Room Tip: If you are offered an upgrade for an extra cost don't except as all the rooms in the Four season...

“Wonderful hotel just outside an amazing city”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 9, 2013

The Four Seasons is a great hotel. The staff is amazing, always welcoming you and attentive to your needs and requests. We stayed in a Jr. Suite and my wife and son thought it was the most luxurious hotel we've ever stayed in. My son especially loved how they put a kids robe in the bathroom before our arrival. They have an Irish story time for kids every Saturday afternoon, but because of the jet lag we missed it. When the staff saw how disappointed my son was, they setup a separate reading time on Sunday just for him. Jeremy, the concierge, was the reader and through the entire stay, every time he saw my son he would take the time to come over and say hi and give him a high five. My son was so happy that he could get his own reading. It's a short walk to Ballbridge which has some very nice restaurants and just a short 10 minute taxi ride from downtown Dublin. It's a beautiful property and if we ever come back to Dublin, we'll definitely stay here.

“Best hotel in Dublin”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 7, 2013

Just back from 3 days R&R in the Four Seasons. We have stayed here on many occasions and it always lives up to expectations. The staff are so attentive and helpful, with nothing being too much trouble. Love the new decor in the lobby lounge. Bedroom/suite was stunning spotlessly clean and the breakfasts are the best anywhere in the world! The only "small" complaint is why do you charge for wifi so many places have free wifi and I feel if you are spending a lot of money then it should be free. Apart from the "wifi" we had a marvellous relaxing time and will be back very soon

Dear 'Evei25'
Thanks for your very complimentary feedback on your recent stay with us at Four Seasons. It is comments like these that really vindicate what we do and help motivate the team to keep delivering on our promise of exceptional service.
I am delighted you like our new lobby lounge set up and décor. There has been much commentary with our regular guests in the past few months so to hear such a glowing endorsement really pleases me.
I take your point on the internet fee. I can assure you that it is our long term goal to eliminate this charge in order to make this a standard part of the hotel offering.
Once again, thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. We really appreciate it.
Regards,
Tony Coveney
