Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about Maldron Hotel Parnell Square Dublin City from previous guests about their experience.

Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Guests frequently highlight the hotel's very clean and spacious rooms, some even mentioning the pleasant views they enjoyed. Its location near Temple Street and within a 15-minute walk along O'Connell Street to the river bridge is considered convenient. Breakfast receives praise, particularly the tasty coffee and fresh croissants; however, a few guests have noted that the window's safety feature made them unopenable.

Underwhelming stay near O'Connell street

bus stationexcessive security deposituncomfortable bed

Location near several bus stations was acceptable.

The room felt cramped, and there was not much space to move around. The security deposit of €400 seemed excessive and that amount was not communicated on the website. The bed wasn't comfortable either, made for bad sleep quality.

Average Stay, Some Issues

nearby bus stationspoor housekeepingsullen staff

The location near bus stations was okay.

The housekeeping was not good at all, and I think some toiletries disappeared from the room. The staff seemed pretty sullen, especially those working nights. Our room looked out at the dining area, so it was impossible to get any daylight, so I didn't like that.
