Gorgeous decor and design throughout the hotel and room I was given. Really impressive staff at reception. Laid back, quietly efficient and good vibes. Large bed in room was fantastic and spacious room I was given with terrace overlooking Temple bar was a real surprise. Great coffee machine in room too. Loved the large antique bathroom sink and power shower. And the big oak doors have a reassuring close on outside corridor noise.

Small tv high on wall - maybe just that room as stayed in hotel in past and don’t remember that in other rooms - but not overly important as hardly watched it. Nothing hotel can do but temple bar venues can get noisy late on Thursday till 2am (midnight Wednesday) but the generous 12pm checkout compensates and is perfect. There was a generator noise from outside maybe from temporary works going on.

We got a rally agreeable price on this stay for two nights so it was worth the outlay to stay somewhere so nice and so welllocated. The room was lovely, clean and spacious with a nice bathroom and an amazing shower. The bar has a great atmosphere and plenty of space, there’s a. Cocktail bar attached and the dining experience is wonderful;. We had breakfast one of the mornings in a lovely, light room and we had our evening meal there too. I had a beautiful steak and my partner had a wonderful beef ragu. The location is great, there’s a cool bar with a comedy club next door and plenty of places to eat and drink within 5 minutes, the hotel is right on the water front and I’m a superb location. The staff are friendly and helpful and the location is amazing for a modern, luxurious but not fussy and obscenely expensive stay. Well worth a visit.

Overall the stay was amazing but there is no room based temperature control. I asked about turning off the heat and that helped but there was no adjustment on the radiator without tools. We opened the windows which also helped buton a Saturday night you can hear noise through the walls and the windows from the neighbouring bars and clubs.

The location was perfect, right in the center of everything but on the river. Staff was amazing and had two of our three rooms ready early! They were so nice and helped us get our car parked and off we went! The hotel is beautiful and rooms were perfect and clean! Bigger than most. We came back very late one night and the bar was closed but the man at the desk jumped behind the bar and made us drinks! He was wonderful. Could not ask for better.

Nothing could have been better! Hotel and staff were outstanding.

Perfectly located on the river and backing on to the lovely temple bar. Lobby has been renovated and is super chic. Drinks are fantastic. The reception staff is super friendly and cheerful. Stayed in one of the renovated deux rooms. Very crisp and modern design. I can see how this property would be too loud for some, however we were there to enjoy Dublin’s nightlife and this simply did not bother us.

We had a wonderful stay at The Clarence. The decor lived up to expectations after seeing so many images, absolutely loved all the velvet in the room’s & reception. All of the staff were great! We had a couple of cocktails at the hotel which were great (lovely bar staff too) as well as the little coffee shop next door. All really great! We stayed mid-week so the bars/music around wasn’t a problem but can imagine it to be quite loud of a weekend (to be expected when staying so close to Temple Bar). Great location in terms of getting around the city. We were also able to check in early which was a bonus after such an early flight. A perfect stay over all!

Bars/music which would be loud of a weekend (we stayed mid-week so wasn’t an issue but can imagine it to be until early hours at the weekend). Does just come with the location though.

Friendly staff, great location!

Very pricey, I was charged €50 deposit which wasn't mentioned until I got to the hotel. They told me it be refunded in full. The next morning they told me my €50 be refunded in full if we didn't use anything from the mini bar in our room! In which they should've explained at check in. Also we got food at the restaurant and the little size of the main course my brother ordered looked like a starter, my brother loves his food and it wouldn't fill a cat he asked for a bowl of chips to fill the gap! Very pricey for very little portions.

The staff were great, friendly and approachable. We left our bags until our room was ready to check in, and they had brought our bags up to the room for us prior to returning to check in, which I’ve never had a hotel do before so was above my expectations. Our room had been upgraded which was a great surprise, it was clean and the facilities were great.

Being on the river in such a central location you are bound to hear some surrounding commotion. However, it didnt bother me and didn’t effect my stay and I slept uninterrupted. If you’re more sensitive to noise it might bother you.

very friendly staff, large room, nostalgic light switches and keys, great cocktailbar in lobby, perfectly located in the heart of temple bar. decent breakfast choices served to the table (no buffet).

mandatory safety deposit (50€/N) should be indicated during booking; some of the rooms are renovated, some are not: i was lucky, but my colleague’s room was very cold, the heating esp in their bathroom was not working properly & could not be fixed during our stay+ their room had industry-style windows that are not insulated (in my room the windows were equipped with double glass). take care when signing breakfast bills- restaurant staff got them mixed up both times we ate there. the downside of the very central location is that you‘ll hear temple bar‘s nightlife quite well. bring earplugs if you are sensitive.

The welcome was wonderful. It was my sister’s birthday and I asked for a nice room. Which was provided. When we arrived the special occasion was mentioned and there was a lovely card and two Prosecco vouchers waiting for us in the room. A lovely touch.

The lift wasn’t working, however the receptionist insisted that he carried both our bags to the 4th Floor which more than made up for any inconvenience. A truly customer centric hotel. Thank you.

The public areas were beautiful, the furniture in the (newly refurbished?) rooms was lovely, very comfortable beds, great shower, staff were very friendly and helpful. The barman in the Cocktail Bar was really great, advising on whiskies etc

I felt, for the star rating and price, there were things missing. I think they should offer free bottled water, better quality coffee and tea and have biscuits. The room furniture and lamps etc were new and lovely, but the wooden furniture was tatty and chipped which made it feel dirty (which it wasn't, it just felt it)
