There was some dust on the top of the bed and dropping down to the bed. The room seemed a bit cold mainly bathroom,heater will be good in winter months. There was only a smaller window facing to the inside court,so not a lot natural light. The bed/pillows and matress was very comfortable. Breakfast had a large selection of nuts and seeds.Coffe ok only from the machine.

My sister and I enjoyed our stay. The staff was particularly Helpful and pleasant. When our phone and TV wasn't working Camilo A. came to our room and quickly resolved both issues with a courteous and sincere effort to get it taken care of as quickly as possible. Everyone at the checkin desk was exceptionally experienced.

Great frontage to O'Connell Street, very handy for Dublin airport and bus stops outside hotel. Contemporary interior quite soulless but staff friendly, food as expected for buffet. Our kind size superior room was comfortable but room wasn't soundproofed so noise from corridor was annoying at times but bearable. That was mainly fault but otherwise good for a hotel chain and staff definitely helpful and nice.

Excellent experience at this hotel. We came in at 9am and very jet lagged and they allowed us early check in. Staff was very helpful and friendly. The buffet breakfast was great. Walking distance to all that Dublin has to offer. Only regret and this was not the hotel’s fault by any means - my husband’s phone got stolen right off his hand while he was walking down o Connell street! So beware of thieves. Other than that we had a great experience.

Beautiful hotel with excellent staff, every staff member we spoke to were helpful and above all extremely friendly. Our room was spotless, comfortable bed and lovely big walk- in shower in the bathroom. If I was to be picky it could have done with a long mirror and better lighting for doing my hair and makeup. Breakfast was superb and we were offered a takeout breakfast the day we left as we were leaving at 5am. We will definitely stay here again.

Having never been to Dublin before, we carefully considered where to stay. We couldn’t have made a better choice than the Hotel Riu Plaza The Gresham Dublin. Location, location, location! The Gresham sits on bustling O'Connell Street, just a hundred yards from the Spire of Dublin and the lively shopping area of Henry Street. Even better, the Aircoach bus from Dublin Airport stops right in front of the hotel, making it convenient (10 euros per person from the airport). Restaurants and pubs are plentiful in the area. From our hotel, we enjoyed a pleasant 20-minute walk across the River Liffey to the National Gallery and the Wilde House, with plenty of shops to browse along the way. The Gresham is a fully restored neoclassical hotel with an elegant interior that feels brand new. At reception, we were warmly greeted by Sophie, whose friendliness and helpfulness made a memorable impression. Our room, a deluxe superior twin, was exceptionally spacious with a large, beautifully tiled shower. I’d rate it an A-plus! We opted for the breakfast package, and it was worth it—the buffet, served in one of the two main-level restaurants, rivaled a five-star experience. I’m surprised the Gresham isn’t rated five stars! For those interested, there’s also a fully equipped fitness room on the lower level.
