My stay at the Dublin Hilton was a mix of positive and negative experiences. The hotel's convenient shuttle service to the airport was a plus, but the room lacked heat and only blew cold air, making it uncomfortable. The hotel staff's communication issues, possibly due to smoking near the AC air inlets, affected the service quality. The location was perfect for an early flight but limited exploration of Malahide. While the dining options were decent, prices seemed high for some items.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The room had several issues including being too hot throughout the night, a broken fridge, and constant noise that disrupted my sleep. The accommodation was not ready for the intended number of guests, and housekeeping even entered the room early in the morning while I was resting. However, I appreciated the effort made by the staff to assist guests with various needs, such as providing transportation to the station and addressing queries efficiently.

The hotel had lovely clean rooms, but my partner found it too cold to sleep. The bar had excellent music, but there were some permanent scuffs. The location was great for the airport and nearby attractions, although the shower had only a weak dribble of water. Dining had fantastic options but could open earlier. Service was professional but a bit presumptuous about tips.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant. The rooms, while slightly outdated for a Hilton, were super clean, comfy, and offered good overall service. What I appreciated the most was the shuttle service, but it was a bit inconvenient that the temperature in the room didn't drop as promised and there was only one plug for charging my phone. The rooms felt clean but somewhat barren and unwelcoming.

I stayed at the hotel for one night and had a mixed experience. The room was spacious but had some issues like being boiling hot all night, a broken fridge, and a constant humming that disrupted my sleep. On the bright side, the hotel is conveniently located near the bus stop for easy access to town and the airport. The menu was good, albeit a bit pricey, which is expected in Dublin. I decided to cut my stay short and checked out after the first night.

The hotel room was like a one-bed apartment, good size with two toilets which worked well for us as a group. However, it stank of food and wasn't particularly clean. It was boiling hot all night, the fridge was broken, and there was a constant humming in the room that gave us few hours of broken sleep. We had booked for 2 nights but only stayed 1.

My stay at the hotel was a bit mixed. The rooms were quite stuffy and too warm, which was uncomfortable. However, the service from the staff was fantastic, especially for my dad who needed extra assistance with a wheelchair. The location turned out to be not as convenient as advertised, but the food during the storm was exceptional. The dining experience left a bit to be desired, with some food items missing. The facilities were generally good, although the air conditioning and phone in the room needed attention.
