Grand i Malahide
Fint hotell i äldre stil fin miljö med jättebra läge, nästa till centrum av Malahide. Ttrevlig och hjälpsam personal och fint rum. Det enda som saknades var en AC , men det kan man inte begära i en gammal byggnad och att vi är vana vid svalare temperatur i sovrummet.
Överlag var det en mycket trevlig vistelse i Malahide på ett fint hotell med nära avstånd till allt.

Good place to stay close to the airport, without staying in Dublin.
The folks at the front desk were very nice. Rooms were clean.
Wish the pool was open later than 8:30.
