I stayed here four nights. On the positive side the rooms were not too small and were cleaned every day. The building has a lovely aspect and is light and airy. On the negative the carpets were very dirty and need more than a clean with water. The front desk is virtually unmanned after 11pm and several times my family... More

Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to review your stay at the IMI Residence. I do apologise that the standard of your room did not live up to your expectations. Our rooms are slightly on the small side, but have comfortably accommodated a family of three on many occasions. I hope in the near future that you may... More

Myself and my boyfriend stayed one night at IMi residence along with 5 of our friends. The room was basic, but clean and comfortable enough. Our room looked out onto the front of the building so there was some noise from passers-by. Also although we booked a double room, the bed was two twins pushed together which created quite a... More

Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to review your stay at the IMI Residence. Our continental breakfast buffet is usually sufficient for the majority of our guests, however my apologies, if on this occassion it appeared minimal. We do try to accommodate special requests such as late check outs, but as you can appreciate, we were full and... More

First impression, horrible, grey, concrete monstrosity. The IMI is in fact the Irish Management Institute, it is NOT a hotel of any kind, this is in fact a conference centre with accommodation for its delegates, that is resold as a revenue generator. It was clean and tidy, but that were its only good points, everything else was miserable; we were... More

The IMI Residence is NOT a hotel, it to me looked like student dorms. The location is unsuitable for anybody without a car, the car park in surrounded by trees and VERY BADLY lit. I would not walk through the car park alone at night, especially if female. I will admit I didn’t choose the IMI Residence by choice, but... More

I stayed at the IMI for three nights. Surroundings are peaceful and suburban with ample parking. The rooms and bathrooms are spacious and colourful, and in reasonable condition for their age. The mattress was thin and a little soft on one side of the bed, so sleep wasn't particularly easy. Self-service breakfasts are basic, but with sufficient quantities. No other... More

I stayed here mainly because it was very cheap and had free parking. I arrived around midnight, and was very difficult to find the parking area and the entrance to the reception. Once there, after a while the guard arrived and checked me in. When I finally found my room, it was really dissapointing. A dirty toilette and the taps... More

Stayed here to go to the Film Festival in Dublin. The roadworks were gone. It was a little difficult to find again, both the GPS and googlemaps sent us a little astray. The walk into Dundrum was not too bad, though its all up hill one way. The stay was as good or better than last time - not sure... More

First thing about this hotel which, as it has been already indicated by other guests, looks more like a Conference Centre from outside than a proper Residence/Hotel. The hotel is quite hard to find if you're not coming from the M50 but it's more because of Dublin (YOU'VE GOT TO HAVE A SATNAV (GPS) !!!). Second and also important: a... More
