Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

- Lisamarie LMadison, WI957 contributionsI was in Dublin for work, and I really enjoyed the chance I had each evening to stroll along the river and explore the city - it was a good anchoring landmark. There are several bridges for crossing, all with their own character. I loved listening to the gulls as walked along. The hotel I was staying at was right at the end of the river where it goes into the harbor/sea.Written 17 November 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Arthur B5 contributionsThis bay is the nicest bay I have ever visited. People told me it's architecture has been copied to build man made bays in other parts of the world? I can believe it.

- ciog52Melbourne, Australia723 contributionsAn interesting place for a stroll around. Very quiet spot and a real hidden gem.Used to be a reservoir for the north of the city and now a park. When i was there it was quiet with two park wardens walking around. It did not feel unsafe. There is a nice walk to the Grand Canal if exit at the rear of the park and turn right and walk through that park. If you turn left there is a kids playground. There is an interesting mix of houses in the area . Not the nicest area in Dublin but worth a visit if you are in the areaWritten 31 July 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
