I'm just back from a two night break at the Dublin Skylon Hotel, I booked an executive room. Check in staff were extremely helpful and attentive. The room was very clean and tidy, the executive rooms are located at the back of the hotel which is set back from the main road just outside the hotel. Breakfast was nice and... More

We spent 3 nights at this hotel (Dec. 26 - Dec. 29, 11) and really loved the place. The hotel staff members were very courteous and helpful. We reached there before 6:00 am the day after Christmas - and our check-in was not due till noon. But, they gave us a nice room right away. When we complained about the... More

Skylon hotel is located in the northern part of the city, the center is quite far but the connections are good. The rate is in line with the good quality of the hotel. The room are also quite large and comfortable. We chose this hotel for a three-days weekend in Dublin, and I think it was quite a good choice. More

The price was fantastic. Skylon hotel has a good public transport service with bus stops just outside the hotel - so if u want to for shopping/drinking in Dublin I trully recommend this place for overnight stay. Very warm staff made a difference compairing to other hotels. Only one bad thing - breakfast was a bit overpriced. More

Even though it's outside Dublin city you have to pay to park ,rooms are small, décor shabby and ugly.Shower in bath ,again not very clean and very poor flow.Rooms did not... More

Located on the main road from the airport into Dublin (10 mins in taxi from airport and 15 mins further to city). Hotel was fairly souless and although in an Executive Room which was of decent size (double bed and single bed) the most modern part of the room was its door! Showing signs of wear and tear in the...

After a long day travelling my girlfriend and i decided to check in to the Skylon without any prior booking. The hotel exterior is nice but upon entering the reception was somewhat dated, a sign of things to come.. There was only one sole reception staff member who appeared to be on duty. She was courageously answering calls, attending to... More

I can't thank the staff at the Skylon enough for a wonderful weekend away. My wife and I have recently had a new child and had our first weekend away to treat ourselves. The rooms are spacious and clean with fantastically attentive staff. The hotel is perfectly positioned and very easy to find with great Parking. We had a wonderful... More
