The Old Borough Hotel - Wetherspoon

I stayed here for a gig in Dublin, its not my 1st time here, and it never disappoints. The girl at check in was so.polite and friendly, I waited at the bar and she was very efficient in checking me in. The food is excellent and very good value.

We stayed here after a long flight into Dublin Airport and were surprised how close it is to the airport! Less than 10 minute drive to a lovely little town with many nice restaurants and bars. You can also drive into Malahide in less than 10 minute too. The hotel itself was lovely with a large room and nice bathroom. The staff were very friendly and there is parking at the hotel. There is a bar on site so it can be a little loud but there wasn’t noise too late at night so I wouldn’t let this put anyone off staying here

Mixed reviews regarding this hotel. Check in was smooth and early check in at two is great. Room is a nice size and modern enough. However there was a fake nail on the floor. Went for food and drinks in the pub downstairs. Food was nice and very reasonable prices. However at night the surround area is extremely noisy so keep that in mind. We were told during check in that check out was 12. This clearly wasn’t the case as he had someone pounding on our door at 11:15 asking us to hurry up. The housekeeping was quite rude here and we were planning on leaving anyway in the next few minutes. An 11am checkout would have been no problem however we were specifically told it was a 12 checkout. I explained this at the bar reception. There wasn’t any apologies about the confusion or anything. Left in quite a hurry after that.

The rooms are very nice, but the set up is odd. You checkin for the hotel at the bar. I had to wait for quite awhile for someone to acknowledge me so i could check in. And when they mention limited parking, they mean it. There are about 6 parking spots jn front of of the hotel/pub and its a VERY big and very busy pub. Parking is basically not going to happen at the hotel. There is street parking but you can't park there all night. Having said that, the bed was very comfortable and our room was very quite.

From the moment we arrived, from check in to check out it was excellent the rooms are fab and the food is great the best hotel I’ve stayed in, in a long time, all the staff were amazing, highly recommend this hotel, brilliant shopping centre straight across the road. Will definitely be back

Room was very modern & comfortable; the only downside was that the remote control was MIA so I was unable to watch the massive TV. The restaurant & Bar is great, good vibe, friendly staff, and the cheapest food & drink prices I’ve seen in years.

Staff are super friendly and helpful, rooms are really comfortable and the shower is amazing.

The photos for the rooms are not accurate and misleading. I booked a "Double or Twin Room" and expected to get what was pictured (windows, brick walls, sofa, etc). Instead I got a room with no windows (yes a skylight) and no sofa or exposed brick. The room was small and did not have good ventilation. A second point of disappointment was the service. This is not a normal hotel. It is a weatherspoons pub with a few rooms upstairs. I was expecting a check in desk or reception. Instead, I had to ask someone at the bar and they checked me in. And after I complained that the room did not match the photo, a worker just walked away from me. The staff are there more concerned about the restaurant customers than the hotel guests. The parking lot is tiny and when I pulled up, there were no spaces available. I had to double park and block a lot of people until the staff found someone who was leaving. The positives is that there is a weatherspoons downstairs! So it is super easy to get food/drinks, and even an early morning breakfast (7am). It is also right across the street from the Pavilions Shopping Centre, so anything you need is there. Overall, even though the facility seemed pretty new, it was a bad first impression for check in/staff and a complete let down in terms of what was promised in the room description/photos. I know they can do better.

The room was fine for the price. The bar area was nice for a few drinks. The staff were very helpful. Overall excellent for the price
