Clayton Hotel Ballsbridge

Room was clean and had good provisions in that there was an ironing board, safe and tea/coffee facilities. Bed was comfortable and room was dark, but not overly soundproofed and it was warm at night. Hotel parking underneath hotel is fine but access in and out of this is on a very narrow ramp in and to say it was sharp turn is an understatement: you wouldn't want to be in a large vehicle. The breakfast was lovely: buffet style and both cooked and continental offerings where varied, good quality, fresh offerings and the coffee was superb. On a downside I would not recommend dining here, we opted for a two course meal deal paid in advance but had I known what we would get I wouldn't have bothered. Took 45 mins before our food order was even taken, took a further hour to get our meal and the food wasn't great. Steak was well done not medium as requested and the maple chicken "sandwich" was disgusting: tasted stale and chicken was awful...only for we had been waiting so long I would have returned it. The restaurant was empty by the time we got to the coffee and they couldn't get that right...took 20mins to bring out a flat white which was freezing so I strongly advise you dine elsewhere. Staff were friendly if in short supply in the dining room for evening serving hence the abysmal service.

My stay was in January. It was cold outside but my room was very nice and heat was easy to regulate. Room was very clean, staff was friendly. Breakfast was really good. I would highly recommend.

This hotel was very clean with an excellent breakfast. We enjoyed staying there.

Our stay was brief, and on this trip we didn't utilise the amenities due to time restraints. However, the staff we did have dealings with were exceedingly helpful, and a credit to the hotel. Next time, we'll use the facilities, and review accordingly.
