Maldron Hotel Parnell Square – Dublin

The Hotel was clean and comfortable. Wi-Fi was free in the lobby. It was a short walk from where the airport bus dropped us off and shopping/restaurants. Most of the tourist spots are a bit farther, but still very walkable.

Consistently good

We were two friends travelling a weekend in Dublin. We found this hotel which is located only a few minutes from O'Connell Street - one of the main streets of Dublin. We arrived from the airport with bus - both bus 16A and bus 747 stops in the vicinity of the hotel. This was very convenient. The hotel staff was friendly, the room was clean and we […] also got a spacious room. Some parts of the hotel was a little worn down. DUring our stay we had to request some help for some minor adjustments in our room and the staff did this very fast and to our satisfaction. The overall impression of the hotel was good. For us it gave great value for money, it was close to main attractions, shopping areas and several bus stops. To walk to Grafton street it took approx 20 min. It was possible to store our luggage at the hotel and our impression was that the staff took good care of the luggage - it looked safe. We recommend the hotel. Lesa meira

Very please with our 2 night stay in the Maldron Parnell Square. In fact, booked one night initially but then stayed 2! Location is at the top of O'Connell street, past the Rotunda Hospital. The area around the Hotel is not fabulous. Short walk to O'Connell street shopping and restaurants. 15 min walk or short taxi to Temple Bar and Grafton Street. Twin […] room had double bed long enough for a 6'2" guy :-) not always a guarantee. Clean rooms and nicely fitted with flat screen television and free wi-fi for your computer. Control your own aircon and could open the window which was also nice. Bar open late for guests. Didnt eat at the Hotel, collected a pizza from Mizzoni across the street which wasnt great but ok. Hotels own pizza could be better. Left luggage at the Hotel was complimentary. Staff were very efficient and nice. Corridor noise wasnt so bad as doors didnt seem spring load like in some Hotels. Non Smoking room had no signs of smoking. Computer in lobby had a printer attached so when I booked Guinness Storehouse online I got a 10% discount on tickets and could print off my voucher. Very happy with this Hotel and would recommend. Lesa meira

Generally clean room (apart from a dodgy stain on the spare pillow case), spacious hanging space and handy iron in the room. A fair walk away from the main action, probably a bit further than I would prefer but not too far that you need a taxi. Staff were efficient enough. We didn't have breakfast in the hotel but it looked ok, usual hot buffet and […] cereal. Good free wifi but only in reception. All in all a good stay. Lesa meira

we stayed here for one night, it is so easy to find and with the car park below you can rest assure that your car is secure. it is in a great location and within walking distance to the main attractions, would def stay in this hotel again.

I stayed at the Maldron for 8 days, and it was a very nice experience. The staff were friendly and helpful, the entire place was very clean and well-kept, the bed was comfortable, and the location was quiet without being too far out of the way. Located just off of Parnell Square, it's an easy 10- to 15-minute walk into center city area. There are plenty […] of places to eat in the area, and on the one morning that it was raining heavily and I didn't want to go outside, I tried the breakfast buffet which was good. The internet connection in the room is wired, not wireless, but it's free and works fine. Overall, a very nice experience! Lesa meira

perfect hotel for anyone going out in the city centre and looking for a place to stay. Excellent rate, some parking, and the hotel is new and comfortable

This hotel was great location and the staff was very friendly. My only qualms with this hotel is that I purchased a breakfast voucher the day before and was never told when breakfast ended. When we went down at 11am we were told that breakfast ended at 10:30 and that we couldn't get our money back. It was partially our fault for not inquiring, but it […] would have been nice for them to let us know and/or have it written on the breakfast vouchers. It was a complete waste of money! Besides that the hotel was great! Lesa meira

Very satisfied with my stay, and the Hotel.

nice friendly staff, nice room, asked for 3 triple beds and got them even tho i got room with double and single. Dont get the chips/fries here, the were solid as a rock. We could barely put our fork thru them. We overheard one of the workers saying they cant cook them because they so thick and chunky. Least we got extra portion of onion rings inste […] ad.

Great room/rate very central. Bar/restaurant food just ok, did not have breakfast better value locally. Would stay again room very good value.

This hotel is very close to the city centre, mater hospital, etc and is a very good location. There is limited parking available, 10 cars, and this is 10 euro a day which is good value for dublin. However you cant prebbok it so it is first come basis/. The hotel is fine, very clean and comfortable. I skipped the breakfast and slept till 10.30 which […] cant be bad. Lesa meira

I would definately consider staying at this hotel again. A comfortable stay, central location and friendly and accomodating staff. Food in the restaurant is slightly over priced but very tasty. Overall, good value for money.

Great Hotel, comfortable, clean and fantastic value

We thoroughly enjoyed our short break at the Maldron Parnell Square. My only complaint would be the lack of noise insulation. I could hear the gentleman in the room next door using the bathroom during the night and his bathroom was on the far side of his room! We had sleep issues on a couple of nights due to other people taking advantage of the cheap […] rates and partying in their rooms. I would still consider staying here again, however. Really good value for money. Lesa meira

I chose to ignore the comments about the area and am glad I did cause this hotel is just fantastic.Beautiful spacious rooms which were spotless and fantastic staff.Loved it there.

We stayed here on our final night in Dublin. The staff was helpful, even assisted with our rental car pickup. Even though parking is very minimal (5 places), we were able to park behind the hotel for a short time. They even arranged for a cab ride to the airport, explaining it would be the same cost if we took an airport shuttle bus. I would stay here […] again, great rate and clean! Lesa meira

Both myself and my wife had a 1 night stay, the hotel itself was perfectly fine and I would like to single out the restaurant/bar staff who were very friendly and efficient. But our whole stay was ruined by the fact that we were told to park in a public car park across the road and were never told that we it would cost us 24 euro when we went to retrieve […] the car at 11am next morning. It was absolutely ridiculous that there was no special rate between the hotel and the car park, and if there was we were never told about it, this is the reason why i could not recomend this hotel, parking is too expensive!!!

Perfect for my requirements, slight inconvenience that the bar/resteraunt does not open until 6:00pm.

My husband and I recently stayed at the Maldron Hotel-Parnell Square for 3 nights, and we are both very pleased with our stay. The staff (with the exception of one bartender) was friendly, and we found the hotel to be in a convenient location, as it is very close to O'Connell Street, but it is NOT in the middle of the city. You must enjoy walking if […] you plan on using this hotel as a base for your trip to Dublin. It takes only about 10 minutes to walk from the Airlink stop (we used Airlink747 to and from the airport and found it VERY convenient). When you get off the bus, walk straight towards O'Connell street and turn right. Turn left onto Parnell Street (where there's a large statue), then right onto Parnell Square, and the hotel is the last building on the right. The bed was very comfortable, however the pillows were hard as rocks (this seemed to be the trend though in all 6 hotels we stayed at while in Europe). You do need to leave the key in a slot to turn the power on to the room, which is a nice effort to go "green." We didn't need the A/C while we were there, but if you go in the summer months, just make sure you get two keys so you can leave the A/C running during the day while you are out and about. The TV only gets like 6 channels, and to turn it on, you have to a punch a number (any number) on the remote. Isn't that weird? We had to call the front desk to find that out. If you like to walk, don't waste your money on a bus pass. We literally walked everywhere (all the way to Kilmainham Gaol!) and enjoyed the scenery and buildings that we passed. We never got food in the hotel, but the pizza place across the street (labeled as "Probably the best pizza in Ireland") was shockingly good! The area around the hotel was a little skivvy at night, but that's usually the case in a big city. The free broadband was a giant plus for us. The bathroom was large and clean, and the bedroom was a decent size. We would definitely stay here again if we ever return to Dublin. Lesa meira

Stayed in the Maldron from Fri to Sun this month. The room was lovely, more like a 4 star room. Was really comfortable, brilliant big shower and large bed. My only criticism is that it seems to be on the edge of a bit of a dodgy area, although I felt relatively safe there. Would stay at a Maldron again, maybe just in a more convenient location next […] time! Lesa meira

good location for O'Connell St. Henry St. and Mater Hospital

Stayed in this hotel as is close to the maternity hospital my wife had her baby in. Had a few long days and was happy to get back at night to a very helpful staff who had a small food menu until 11 at night which was great. A handy location at a great price for Dublin city centre though the surrounding area is quiet at night. Would highly recommend […] as facilities are good, staff are more than pleasant and helpful an hotel is spotlessly clean and tidy. Lesa meira

Nice and comfortable hotel located in a quiet not too secure neighborhood (especially in the night). Just 10 minutes walk from core downtown. Quiet room (courtyard side), comfortable mattress, clean, very simple bathroom, no bath set but a liquid soap dispenser for hands and another one for body/hair in the bath tub, pretty low and small sink. Breakfast […] (offered in extra) is generous and offers a nice continental buffet. No Wifi in bedroom but working in the lobby. A good quality/price ratio hotel. Lesa meira

My wife recently stayed in the Maldron Parnell st. as I was attending the Mater Private hospital which is just up the road. We picked the Maldron because of its location near the hospital. The first problem we had was parking - there is practically none at the hotel itself - about 10 or so spaces in a cramped underground car park which you cannot pre-book. […] I had to park in a public car park across the road which more resembled a bomb site - I was able to get a space at the hotel later and moved my car over. When I got in the lift and the door closed - I noticed a toolbox on the floor near the back with a black folder beside it - I took no notice until the lift didnt appear to be moving. Afte pressing a few buttons to try open the door etc it started to move and i noticed an 'out of service' message in red on the panel. I was now a bit worried as the lift seemed to be moving extremely slowly. After about five or six minutes in a very hot, stuffy lift - it finally stopped and the door opened - I had to step up to clear the floor to get out as the lift had not parked correctly at floor level. I found this experience pretty scary. There was no notice or anyone around when I got in the lift. The hotel itself is comfortable - but it seems pretty cramped both in room size and reception/bar/restaurant area - which was also very small. The staff in the hotel itself - (reception staff, as i didn't deal with anyone else) were very polite, very efficient and helpful. The area surrounding the hotel itself was not very nice. It gave off an air of foreboding and on the short walk from the hotel to the hospital my wife was stopped by a guy on the street begging a cigarette from her. Overall the hotel is ok, once you don't have to leave it, even at that the rooms are very small and the reception and bar area very small also. Lesa meira

The location of the hotel was very convenient to local amenities such as a shopping centre, places to eat, tour busses and Temple Bar. We opted for the hop on hop off bus tour as we were sightseeing primarily and used it both days to get around and see what we wanted to see. The hotel was bog standard but clean and amicable, food was OK, nothing to […] get over excited about. But overall was happy with choice of hotel especially for the location. Would recommend. Lesa meira

After much trawling through the web for hotels in Dublin, I eventually decided on the Maldron. I wasn't disappointed. The hotel was great in every respect and we truly couldn't fault it for comfort, cleanliness, and location. The breakfast was a reasonable 9 euros and was very nice as were the other meals that we had. Save yourself a lot of searching […] and book this hotel. Lesa meira

A very convenient location just away from the hustle and bustle of O'Connell Street but within easy walking distance. A few minutes walk from the Hugh Lane Gallery, a lovely art gallery with a wonderful cafe/restaurant in the basement (a hidden secret!) and a short walk from the airoport link bus into Dublin Airport. Very helpful hotel staff and a good […] breakfast. Will happily stay there again Lesa meira

Stayed in this hotel twice during our trip to Ireland: First visit – small room, double bed, small LCD TV, and small bathroom with shower, Second visit – large family room, queen bed and single bed, large LCD TV, large bathroom with tub. Rooms were clean and comfortable and service was good. Kingfisher cafe down the street had better food at lower prices […] than the hotel restaurant. The hotel is very close to public transportation, the airport shuttle and sightseeing buses. It’s a 15 minute walk from the Temple Bar district and 20 minutes by foot to the chic shopping area at St. Stephen's Green. However, it’s quiet at night – no drunken people signing rugby & futbol (soccer) cheers outside your hotel window in the streets at all hours. The neighborhood surrounding the hotel is an older business district and working-class neighborhood that looks a bit deserted and distressed at night. However there’s relatively little crime in Ireland by US standards, so anyone who has traveled to NYC, DC, or Chicago won’t be intimated. If you approach the hotel from O'Connell and Parnell Streets on the east side (by the Rotunda hospital) you’ll skip the less picturesque areas. Lesa meira

Possibly the worst hotel i have ever stayed in.Room 123 was cramped and noisy.It was clean but very small and impossible to get a decent night's sleep, as there were motors coming on and going off all night. The breakfast was the worst i have ever got in any hotel i have ever stayed in.It was cold,burnt and was obviously cooked hours before and not […] kept properly hot.There were no fried eggs on the menu,very poor selection of fruit and yogurt.It was very poor value for money as i paid 35 euro on check-in for the doubtful privilege of eating it. I paid that money to eat weetabix and a slice of brown bead on both mornings, as the rest of what was on offer was not edible. Overall i would not reccomend this hotel to my worst enemy.The location is not safe....i would not walk in that area at night.The staff are nice and friendly but that fails to compensate for all the other shortcomings.
