Maldron Hotel Parnell Square - Dublin 53.35397, -6.26641

This is a great hotel if you are on a budget - staff are friendly and rooms are spotlessly clean. The only minor downside is the location. It's not in the greatest area - fairly rough bar across the road - and is probably 5 minutes further from town than most would like - but it's not that far. Takes about 5 minutes to get to O'Connell St, 15 minutes to get to Temple Bar, 20 minutes to Grafton St. Good hotel - but next visit I'll probably stay a little closer to town and pay a bit more.

The Maldron Parnell Square was an extremely comfortable hotel...the type that, after a long day of sight-seeing, you are happy to come back to. Nice decor and comfortable beds and friendly service.

An excellent hotel, although the traffic at night might prove off-putting to lighter sleepers.

Breakfast expensive but good. Internet free with cord (no wifi).

Very clean hotel, well mantained, and a great value for the money. It had all of the modern conveniences (flat screen tv, in-room internet connection, coffemaker, hairdryer, etc). But it was a little bit of a hike uphill away from the main city center. So if you are doing some sightseeing, it is the kind of place that you don't want to forget something and have to hike on back. On the other hand, it was good that it was away from the Temple Bar and the other loud, rowdy parts of town because you could actually get some sleep! Overall, it is a nice, pleasant place to stay.

Average hotel for the money. The bed was very comfortable. Good location for sightseeing and shopping. The hotel is close to the city shopping areas, pubs, and bus service. We did not eat at the hotel but others in our party had the breakfast and reported it was not worth the money.

Nice clean hotel. Very helpful staff. Would stop there again

Perfect location just off O'Connell Street and very easy to find. Felt very safe and secure - secure parking and night porter is there to open doors to guests after 11pm. Very comfortable bed and great black out curtains!! - I woke up thinking it was the middle of the night when it was 11.30am!! Great sound proofing - it is located in the middle of Dublin right beside a hospital, yet we never heard any road noise at all! All in all a very comfortable, central and safe hotel which is great value for money. Clean and basic - certainly no more than a 3 star but I'll be back!

The Maldron has a very modern design and rooms are very comfortable and provide good value for money.

The Maldron is just off Parnell Square in Dublin, reasonably convenient for O'Connell Street. The hotel is bright, we did not use the bar or restaurant. Our room was quiet despite the nearby busy road. Although not especially large, it was reasonably well equipped and the king size bed was very comfortable. The free broadband is a good feature. Towels were large and fluffy! Service polite and friendly.

Excellent value in a fairly expensive city.

Clean updated room. Great maid service. On major bus line. Only short walk to 747 dropoff stop (O'Connell St).

Located a 5 minute walk from O'Connell Street and 15 minute walk from Temple Bar area. Close to many bus connections - we used the 16a service from the Airport to O'Connell Street for our outbound journey and then returned from a stop just down from the hotel in Parnell St West cost 2.20 euros each way rather than 6 euros on the Express service from Airport. Greeted by happy reception staff, allocated a room on the 1st floor which appeared to have been renovated, we ended up with a triple rather than a double which was great. Very clean with the exception of the bath, tea and coffee facilities provided (no biccies), hairdryer, iron, with board and trouser press, limited toileteries provided - shower gel for bath and soap for hand basin. Lovely comfortable bed. Hotel facilities limited but we weren't there to spend time in the room eg bar does open until 5pm also closes at 11pm on a weekday night, similar applies to food availability, although we didn't par take. We were able to leave our luggage at the hotel until 4pm on the day we departed which was very useful. All in all a good hotel with friendly staff in a sound location - we would definitely use it in the future for a pratical comfortable stay in a capital city.

My son and I stayed here 2 days upon our arrival to Ireland. This hotel is within easy walking distance of most tourist areas (Temple Bar, Trinity College, etc. Easy 10 min walk to Airport bus stop on O'connell st. We liked the hotel well enough to book for our last two nights as well. Free in-room network hardwire capability very good as well as the lobby available WiFi

Great location if you need to stay in the north of the city centre. Clean and quiet hotel. The area is not the nicest but the hotel is lovely inside and very new and modern

I stayed at this hotel over the last weekend. It was so comfortable, the staff were very friendly and helpful. The location was slightly bordering on a not so nice area I think, that's what I was told after anyway, but I can honestly say that it was lovely and quiet, very close to O'Connell Street, and we saw no trouble. I was even out quite late in the night and felt completely safe. We didn't have breakfast or anything there, but it was available at a discounted rate if you booked in advance which was good. Oh and the reception doors were locked after 11, so you knew it would be safe. the room was lovely, bathroom spotless, and it had a lovely shower.

The Maldron at Parnell Square was great! The only negative thing I could say is that the A/C could have been a bit cooler. By no means was I hot. I just like for the room to be on the cold side. This is really more of a personal thing than a knock against the hotel though. The front desk employees were great the entire time we were there. The restaurant was good the one night we ate there. The location really can't be beat for the price seeing as how it's about a 5-10 minute walk to O'Connell Street. I would suggest to anyone staying in Dublin to give this hotel a try.

Very nice clean comfortable & spacious room for myself & daughter for over night stay. Early am appointment for Mater Hosp just a short walk away would use again & would recommend.

The hotel is very well located and excellent: rooms are clean, confortable, beautiful and smell very nice. The bathroom is very nice too! I was very pleased to stay there and the breakfast was great.

Great hotel, comfortable and very conveniently located - 5 mins to the bustle of O'Connell St, 10 mins to Temple Bar. You can get a bus from the airport that will leave you about 5 mins walk away and costs 5euros as opposed to 35 for a taxi. The only issue I would have is that I would not walk back to it at night as the last bit of the walk back is away from the crowds, however, we just got a taxi which was relatively inexpensive.

The hotel wasn't bad but the service I would say not the best. When we first checked in the keys didn't work and I had to go back to the reception, the guy forgot to do whatever they do for the electronic key to work. I couldn't find the second towel that actually was inside of one of the closets (we were in a double room) and they did send the lady with the extra towel, but she wasn't very happy and made a point of showing that she didn't make the mistake because the towel was there. Unecessary. The people at the reception were not rude or anything but they were not exceptional either. Just like a robot, feel very weird. Anyway, I recommend the hotel it is not bad, but if I have an option I am not crazy to return there. I stayed in better and cheaper hotels during this trip and this one didn't even have breakfast.

We spent May bank holiday in Dublin and I booked this hotel over the internet. Was impressed with the service and the hotel. Staff were friendly and there was a secure room for luggage on thedays of arrival and departure. The location was excellent - convenient for O' connell street and about a 15mins walk from Temple Bar.

We stayed here one night out of the 13 nights we stayed in Ireland. First off, the place was a bit difficult to get to. Second, there wasn't any parking nearby so we had to use there parking which was an extra 10 euro per night AND they have VERY limited parking, I counted 11 parking spots! We got lucky and got the last one they had that night. Also, breakfast was not included, the bed wasn't too comfortable and it was really noisy! I got no sleep and neither did my fiancee. The food at the restaurant in the hotel was good and the staff was nice and friendly but I would not stay there again. The price was reasonable though and you will be pretty close to a lot of things.

Myself and my husband stayed at this hotel for a Friday and Saturday night. On arrival the staff were very welcoming and friendly and they were during our whole stay there. Our room looked just like the pictures on the website, this rarely happens, so I was really pleased. The room was of a good size and had a table and two chairs and a little dressing table/desk. It was incredibly clean with a sparkling bathroom. Just note that there are no individual toiletries in the bathrooms, there are just wall mounted dispensers that contain soap. The hotel's location wasn't great, there wasn't much around that area in terms of pubs or restaurants, it was just a short walk to O'Connell Street where you started to get towards more life. One other note to make, I ordered a taxi to take us into Temple Bar area, the taxi man told me I would have been better flagging one down from O'Connell street as when he picked us up at the hotel he had to go all around the one way system. All in all a great hotel and at a very reasonable price.

This hotel was great , lovely n clean, very modern, and very close to the city.. temple bar was only 5/10mins walk... not far attal.... the bus dropped us off from the airport just down the road....definetly stay here again... room was gorgeous!!!

Muldron Parnell Square Hotel is well situated. The price versus quality index is high. I would recommend it for a stay in Dublin.

Very clean and tidy hotel, rooms finished to a very high standard. Towards ouskirts/lesser kept area of the city, and a 15 minute walk to Temple Bar. 2-5 minute walk to O'connell street where all buses and a large selection of shops are

My boyfriend and I spent 2 nights at this hotel 23-25 March 2009. We had a pleasant stay and were well impressed with what we got for our money. The room was modern and stylish, clean and the bed nice and comfy. We booked cheap budget flights and wanted somewhere cheap but clean and comfortable to stay. About 5 mins walk to O'Connell St and 15-20mins walk to Temple Bar. The hotel exceeded my expectations. There were only 2 very small con's to staying here. We stayed in a no smoking room but, whenever we used the air con we could smell cigarette smoke which was obviously as a result of there being air movement from the smoking rooms. There is a bit of an uphill walk from O'Connell Street to the hotel which might not suit less mobile people. Nonetheless I would still recommend this hotel.

room was modern and clean and reasonably priced contained all that was required for a comfortable stay. Very convenient to city centre. Parking is an extra charge.

I booked the Maldron for my parents first to Dublin and they were impressed overall. High quality for it's level and price and did not disappoint at any level. Good cleanliness, comfort, excellent beds and polite staff.

We were more than happy with this hotel. We arrived a little early and were allowed to check in with no problems. The room was very big and modern. The beds in this hotel were so comfortable (I wanted to take the bed home with me lol). It was extremely quiet within the hotel both at night and in the morning. It's location is superb as it is about a 5 min walk from O'Connell Street (the main high street in Dublin). I cannot recommend this hotel highly enough and we will most definitely be going back.

I arrived just before midnight. Not difficult to find but 10 mins walk from Airport bus stop in O'Connell St. I did not use the hotel's bar or restaurant. The room was 3 nights for 2 and was really good value. Dublin is noticeably expensive but this was offset by having somewhere fairly central, very safe and clean to stay.

The hotel was a pleasant surprise. Breakfast is well worth buying, a good deal and a good variety to choose from. According to a friend in Dublin its in a bit of a dodgy area/ end of town, however we had no issues. Short walk to main attractions, but just enough. Will stay here again.

My wife and I, in our 60s, got 3 nights for the price of 2 which made it very good value. The hotel is walking distance from O'Connell Street and approx 30 mins walk from temple bar, trinity college, guinness factory. The breakfasts were good, good choice and food fresh. People on the hotel desk were very helpful and would look up information on the computer to help answer tourist type questions. The room was clean and well presented each day.

Ideal hotel for seeing the city, the location is excellent about a 10 min walk from temple bar and you can easily walk to the guiness factory from here as well. The room was very clean and comfy and the staff were very helpful. I would highly recomend this hotel.

The majority of Desk Clerks were of a different Nationality and not necessarily familiar with Dublin. The were friendly and able to use the internet. They showed us on our map how to find our destinations, but they were unable to make any recommendations.

Service at the hotel was poor. We had problems with the lights and the staff member who came to investigate just went home without saying anything, leaving the problem unresolved. It wasn't even passed to another memeber of staff. The champagne we ordered for our arrival was served warm and on the first day our room was not cleaned until 5pm, meaning we had to vacate downstairs to the lobby and wait.

We stayed here in January 09 and found the hotel lived up to prior recommendations. Only stayed 'Room only' so can't comment on food but the hotel is well situated and our room was quiet, comfortable and spotlessly clean. Hotel staff were helpful and welcoming.

My friend and I loved staying at the Maldron - the beds were very comfortable and the decor was great - funky yet classy. Little touches - like a tray that plugs in to heat water for coffee and a comfortable bathtub with ledge for books - were delightful. It's also right around the corner from the art museum. I'd definitely go back.

This was a 4 night stay for leisure in Dublin. The room was fairly large with a wardrobe, table and chair, dresser and well sized bathroom. the room was clean and was made up every day very efficiently. Tea and coffee facilities available freely. I did not eat in the restaurant or use the bar as their prices were very expensive compared to walking a short distance to O'Connell Street for cheaper pubs. Although the area itself is not great (a bit rough with not very nice residential properties) it is a great location for the centre and tons of bus routes. Staff were generally polite and helpful. Did not experince noisy customers though I think the hotel was fairly quiet.

I chose this hotel based on other good ratings from previous guests and was glad we did. The hotel itself was nicely decorated with a comfortable (and reasonably priced!) bar and restaurant and the reception staff couldnt have been more helpful. We were advised that our check in could be made from 2Pm however when we arrived at the hotel at 10AM we were pleasantly surprised when we were told our room was ready for us. The room was comfy and modern and very clean - the maid tidied our room and replaced our towels everyday of our 4 night stay. The bed was comfier than my own at home and the black out curtains led to me oversleeping on more than one morning! The only downside I would say is the actual location of the hotel. Altough it is only a 10/15 minute walk to the centre of Dublin (Temple Bar / O'Connell St Etc) the road that it was on was a little offputting when walking back to the hotel of an evening. However do not let this put you off the hotel as we never experienced any problems and if you would prefer the bus stops are located directly opposite the hotel where you can catch either the site seeing bus or the bus around the city.

Only stayed one night but would definately return

this hotel is comfortable and modern and in a good location for a good price.

everything is good, but shower not hot enough.

No complaints at all = good sized room, reasonable rates, within nice walking distance of city centre.

I was expecting a normal hotel but was peasantly surprise to see the furnishing of the room and the showers were top rated and very clean! The hotel is easy to find and bus stop to airport just 5 mins walk.
