Loved by Academy Plaza Hotel guests
"Beds are very comfortable, iron available, kettle for tea/coffee, decaf provided, lighting is very ambient, main light as well as 3 reading lights provided, sockets right beside the bed."
"The food in the hotel resturant wass 5* quality with 1* prices"
"In terms of location, it is set just far back enough off the main O'Connell Street so that you don't hear lots of traffic noise but close enough that it was a 3/4 minutes walk to the main Street where there were shops, restaurants and the main travel routes."

Excellent Hotel Experience!
good breakfastclean roomconvenient locationpoor lighting
The breakfast was quite good with plenty of options. I found the room to be very clean and well serviced. The service was especially appreciated. The location provides convenient access to the city center, taxis, buses, and the Luas system.
The lighting in the room was the worst I have ever seen. The housekeeper was very loud early in the morning while talking on her mobile phone in the corridor. I found the man at check in to be quite rude this time, though he was pleasant previously.

The location was very walkable. The bar was nice. I highly recommend their martinis. Bartenders were helpful.
The noise from the fan outside my window was too much. It stopped after 11 and started again at 6. For the price, it is not a good service.

Acceptable Location, Noticeable Drawbacks
good locationsmall roompoor value
The hotel's location was good for sightseeing.
The room felt small, especially the toilet space. My leg kept bumping the toilet roll holder (kind of annoying, i have to admit). Turning on the shower meant instant wetness, there was no way to avoid it. This setup was like poor value.
