This was our second time staying at the Grand Canal. It was wonderful then, and it was wonderful again. Staff was super! Rooms were clean and had all the necessities needed for travel. We did stop at the bar and restaurant for drinks and some appetizers. Staff there was great also. Convenient to bus, or walking to sites. Definitely worthy when you are looking for a place in Dublin.

It was a nice hotel breakfast 15 euros a person. The only issue I had was the bath tub/ shower was extremely high off the ground very difficult to get in and out of. Knobs had no labels.

I can't think of anything I didn't like. The staff were all very friendly and accomodating, the room was spacious and clean. The restaurant was very good, although the menu was limited. The food was delicious and service was wonderful. Laundry service was reasonable and it was conveniently located to public transportation, small grocery stores and other restaurants. I'll be going back!

Stayed the night before our Vagabond tour. The meeting point for our tour was at this hotel. The room was great, the bed was too firm for my liking. Otherwise, the staff was super nice and helpful and the resturant was good.
