My daughter had an appointment at the US Embassy at 9am Monday morning so we decided to come up the night before. Am so happy I found this hotel! The room was lovely and clean and the shower I could have stayed in for hours! We ate downstairs and the food was fabulous ❤️ Christie in the bar was a true gentleman and looked after us very well! And we were treated to some fabulous music in the bar!!! The cocktails were good too 😜😜😜😜 we will most definitely come back again!!!
We stayed at this hotel for a total of three nights over the bank holiday weekend. It was our first time in Dublin. Overall we had a really nice stay but if we came back to Dublin, we would want something more central and suited towards a younger clientele (no disrespect to other guests). Pros: The rooms are absolutely huge - we were so impressed by the size! The bathroom is massive too and all the toiletries were refilled when requested. The bed was so comfy - genuinely one of the comfiest beds I’ve ever slept in Staff were friendly and welcoming Hotel bar good had a atmosphere Cons: The decor of the rooms just slightly let it down, it feels quite outdated. The reception and bar area seemed quite modern but then the rooms seemed really dated. A lot of paint work needed retouching in our room. Our curtains also had holes in and the carpets was stained. I had a really poor sleep the three nights we were there - the hotel is right on the main road and was really noisy. Traffic would quiet down around 1am but wake me up again around 5-6am. We assume the windows are single glazing as it was so noisy and it being an old building - it felt like they were open when they were intact shut. My sleep was awful due to this, I had to sleep with pillows over ears and ear plugs to block out noise. We did contemplate asking reception for room swap to back of hotel as my sleep was really disrupted but my partner slept really well so it was just individual preferences We did feel the hotel was quite far out from city for a younger couple who wanted to see the city we replied on bus or taxi in and taxis got quite pricy and hard to come by due to the poor weather - you could walk but it would be about 30-50 minutes Tip: Make use of the bus stops right outside the hotel - we used taxis for the first two days and spent a fortune. Used the bus on the last day, much cheaper and easy to figure out…
I am taken aback at how comfortable I felt in this absolute gem of a hotel on the outskirts of Dublin city centre. Lovely food, brilliant cocktails for the mrs and stunning perfect Guinness. Bar staff absolutely on point, rooms superb and such old fashioned great hospitality. Thank you for making our weekend perfect. Will defo make this our go to Dublin hotel. A+++++
Lovely hotel in South Dublin. 30 min walk from city centre. Bus route outside. Lovely park nearby. Staff were friendly and helpful. Room was quiet and spacious (202) Bathroom was superb, very spacious, Bed comfortable. Did not eat there, so cannot comment. My only recommendation is to change the cheap looking black furniture and especially the sofa which is far to low and uncomfortable to sit on. Due to location and friendliness of staff, will be back again.
This has been a fantastic hotel to call home for the past week. Only a short easy walk to St Stephens Green, the room had everything I needed feeling more like home than a hotel. The best part of the stay was the staff. Alex and Christy in the lounge were most attentive and welcoming. The nightly music sessions were the highlight of my week in Dublin. Thanks to all. You made me feel like I was part of the community.
A short spin from the Gaeity brought us effortlessly to a handy parking spot outside the hotel. Strangely there was no record of our booking. Then Andrew the manager spotted my mistake. I had booked a family room for the following year! He however was able to offer us two single rooms side by side instead. Despite this already being an upgrade he threw in breakfast as well FOC. Already happy things were looking up, we went to our rooms. They are huge. I've stayed in bedrooms the size of the ensuite. Spotless. Returning later from a restaurant we had booked we went to the bar where there was some live music. It was great. Lovely atmosphere, chilled out. That night, with the blacked out curtains, our heads hardly touched the puffed up pillows before retiring to Narnia. That morning , crisp and sun drenched, looking out the windows at happy joggers we retreated downstairs for breakfast. As is often the case this can be be a cattle mart of excess. But no. Table service. The food didn't disappoint either. The fruit salad was fresh, the yogurts were artisan in glass pots and the hot food was perfectly cooked. The hotel is lucky to have such wonderful staff, it made a difference. What a gem of a place. We all hope to return as soon as we can.…
We had a very special gathering of family and friends. Andrew and his team looked after us in great style, lovely warm welcome, excellent food and top class service. Thank you so much. Nothing was a problem and we really appreciated all your hard work
Very comfortable room and very friendly staff. I arrived a few hours before official check in but was able to access my room earlier. They even arranged an alarm call on the morning of departure as I had a very early start to get back to the airport. Had lunch in the bar - food was great.
Dear reader, perhaps you already know that one would be well advised to lower one's expectations for most Irish hotels. Rooms tend to be depressing and baths small and ugly by other countries standards. This is, gleefully, NOT the case for the Hampton Hotel. Our room was large, sunny, and pretty and the bath was modern and nice. The staff is helpful and friendly (happily, this is NOT hard to find in Irish hotels). This hotel is located in a quiet but charming suburb - if you want to walk to Temple Bar - this is NOT the place for you, but we were in town to drop our daughter off at UCD, and for this task, this was a great location. We loved the free parking. I was worried about street noise, but this is not a problem. The only cons were that some common areas could use a refresh, the elevators are not convenient, so there tend to be a lot of stairs - not a problem for us - but want you to know what you are getting.…
We were married in The Hampton Hotel 3 years ago so, after a bit of a dreadful few months of personal losses and tragedies, we decided to treat ourselves along with our next door neighbours to a relaxing weekend here. As always, from the phone call to book with the amazing Manager, John Clarke, check in with the super friendly, efficient Anya, drinks served by a bar staff that deserve stars of their own, particularly the hilarious Christy and the friendliest Barman on the planet, John. We had an incredible breakfast on both mornings and lunch and dinner on both days... the food here is outstanding, we had between us...fillet steak, lemon sole, 'to die for' burgers, tempura prawns, chicken stir fry and desserts that were obviously made in Heaven (particularly the Eton Mess). Honestly, this hotel is amazing, beautifully decorated massive rooms, stunning communal areas, an incredible outdoor drinking/dining spot, food that is simply mouthwatering but topped off by a staff that just make a return to this gem of a hotel, a must! Thank you for a wonderful weekend Hampton Hotel... Our Happy Place💞…
