comments My stay at the Tara Towers was a great experience. We got to the hotel at about 8 in the morning after a long night of traveling from the states and we were not allowed to check into our room until 2 o'clock later that day. But the woman behind the counter was very nice and found us a different room that we could go to right away. The service was awsome. Also the bartender and staff were very friendly and helpful. I would recommend Tara Towers to future Dublin visitors.

comments Excellent hotel with extremely friendly and helpful staff especially in reception.Our room was clean and comfortable. Buffet breakfast was very good. With a bus stop at the front gate and a dart station 5mins walk away there is no need to take your car into the city centre to do some shopping. Will stay there again when the opportunity arises.

comments Nice hotel, good location across the road from the sea and Booterstown Dart station. Room spacious and very clean. Bar was very quiet but had low key musical entertainment which suited us fine. Bar food and breakfast were very good. Staff were very friendly. Taxi fare to city centre averaged at 13 euro each way but Dart option is far better at 1.80 each way, trains are regular and only a 5 minute walk away. We asked for a sea view room and were quite pleased overall

comments It was a lovely hotel, not near the centre which at first we thought would be a pain, but there were buses every 5 minutes directly outside and tickets were sold at reception. The food in the bar area was excellent and the Paton Flyer from outside the hotel was very convenient and only 14 Euros return. Would definitely stay here again.

Don't mind that tho' part of the course at this time of year. Very pleased with stay, hope to do it again.

comments A perfectly stisfactory and clean hotel. We had a nice stay, although some minor foibles: the view from the back of the hotel included the hotel roof, a/c units and a building site, the bar shut very early - However it was a comfortable and clean room, and we enjoyed our stay in Dublin immensely.
