Booked a deal for €70 pp to include dinner, bed & breakfast - great deal! It sounded perfect for 4 girls/ladies (!) to get away for a night without the hassle of taxis etc. The outside or setting of the hotel does nothing to give away what is inside. There is an underground car-park which is small and needs a good clean. However then you enter the hotel ... firstly the lift is cool and as for the hotel reception - I haven't seen anything like except in Miami - so hip and stylish. Staff were excellent at reception. Our rooms were on the 7th floor and this is definitley the best option as it a party-place. The rooms themselves are gorgeous. The mini bar is well stocked, beds are very comfy and the bathroom very well equiped. We ordered an ice bucket for our BYOB Prosecco and it arrived pronto. Our package included 3 course dinner. I did not expect it be full a la carte in the Thai restaurant! The food was amazing value! We had a variety of curries, prawns and delicious sea bass. 2 desserts between 4 was all we could manage. One criticism in the restaurant; we ordered house white wine (sav b) however they advised they had no house wine and recommended another sav however they would not give us any option at the same price as the house which in itself was pricey at €22. The party continued in the bar with great music and lovely bar staff.
The next morning breakfast was served until 12.30pm which was brilliant as one of my pet hates is a "breakfast bun fight" with a hangover! With late check out to 2pm it meant there was no queuing to check out and again the staff were lovely.
Would recommend for one night away and perhaps a trip to Dundrum SC via the LUAS, there is nothing in the surrounding area - just don't judge a book by its cover!
