Terrible

This place needs new management! We reserved a non smoking room but were placed in a SMOKING room. After complaining we were finally moved to a non smoking room. Wake up call for the next morning was never made, nor was the call for taxi service to the airport. The airport shuttle does not begin until 0500 in the morning - a little too late for a 0600 flight -thus requiring taxi service. A disaster almost in the making - with less than 5 minutes to catch our flight home. My advice is to stay away!!!

Good value for good price

The hotel was very clean. When my son called for housekeeping to come and make up the pull out bed, someone was there within 5 minutes. The only complaint I have is that there should be more than one person on the front desk during the busy hours. The hotel is very close to Dublin airport.

Nice hotel, convenient location

We stayed there one night before flying out of Dublin. While not a convenient location to the actual city, it was great for an early flight. The hotel was spotless, bed was comfy, staff was friendly, and the complementary airport shuttle was convenient and on time. A convenient, reasonably priced airport hotel.

Great Location, Great Value

The Express by Holiday Inn-Dublin Airport is a great value for the cost. There is a convenient shuttle from the airport to the hotel, and the hotel is located a short walk from several buses that go into the city centre (travel time ~20 mins). I was able to take a bus from the city centre after 10:30 pm on a Sunday night and was at the hotel well before 11:00 pm. The continental breakfast has something for everyone, from fresh fruit and yogurt to lattes. The front desk staff were very polite and helpful. Although traveling solo, I saw several families with young children. The accomodations are clean, and although the furniture configuration was a little unconventional, the room was big enough to sleep two adults comfortably. I would definitely stay there again.

Convenient location

The Express By Holiday Inn (DUBLIN AIRPORT) is conveniently located near the airport and has a shuttle to take you to and fro. The beds were dressed with goose down comforters and were placed adjacent to a convenient lighting system to foster reading in bed. The bathroom's shower was spacious with a good shower head.
