The hotel is located near the 3Arena, making it ideal for attending events and enjoying the wellness facilities. The service was exceptional, particularly Orla at reception, who provided superb help. However, there seemed to be a shortage of staff affecting attentiveness. The dining experience was a mix of amazing dishes and slightly disappointing aspects. The hotel's soothing location near Bord Gais Theatre and wellness attractions like the pool, jacuzzi, and sauna area were highlights.
