Clayton Hotel Dublin Airport
Very difficult to find shuttle bus at airport then incredibly long wait on bus and at check in (despite completing online check in and room being ready). 2 hours from looking for bus to getting into the room is unacceptable!

Ruby Molly Hotel Dublin by IHG
We loved the location of this hotel. It was within easy walking distance of many tourist sights but not in the hustle and bustle where noise could be an issue. The location was very quiet.
