We asked him for recommendations of other places to eat for lunch & it was very good. The Grafton is soooo close to everything. All major attractions are within 10 mins walk. The Shopping District is so close & has all kinds of stores, pubs, restaurants etc. Guinness was a bit further but cheap taxi fare. Rooms were spacious, had A/C which isn’t always the case in Ireland. Loved the lobby to sit. I highly recommend The Grafton

The service was consistently warm and attentive, and the hotel was kept impeccably clean throughout my visit. I also found the food to be of high quality and very enjoyable. The only drawback was that the room was smaller than expected, but overall, this did not take away from a very positive experience. I would highly recommend this hotel to others.

- Laura (10/5): Great location and great service at the Grafton - Very friendly and professional check in. Our party was upgraded due to a birthday celebration. Great instructions on thehotel and all the activity around. Location was fantastic, parking close by and a 2 minute walk to Grafton street, shopping and a range of restaurants.
- Vivian (8/5): - The hotel was clean and staff was good. The location was excellent, however, I found the area more congested than I would have liked. Also,I thought the price of the hotel for the room size and overall facility was too much, relative to other properties in the area that I have stayed at.
- Scott (10/5): - The rooms were great and so was the location.
- Michael (10/5): - Great location, clean, friendly staff. The room could use a carpet change, but it was clean and you can't beat the location.
- Tracy (10/5): - The hotel is ideally situated near a very active area with restaurants, pubs, shops nearby, yet it was still quiet and an island of calm in the midst of the activity on the street. Rooms and baths were well appointed, the bed was comfortable.
- Melissa (10/5): - The staff was amazing and accommodating, the place was beautiful, trendy, and clean. It was also right in the heart of all the action. Highly recommend.
- Anna (10/5): - The hotel was beautiful, the staff were so friendly and helpful, and great food, drink and sightseeing within walking distance.
- Paul (8/5): - Nothing to complain about, perfect stay, lovely hotel.
- Shannon (8/5): - This hotel was in a central location - within walking distance to Trinity college and Grafton street as well as many restaurants and shops. We were there over a weekend and the Friday and Saturday nights were very busy - outside hotel and in area. Different vibe on weekdays. The hotel was clean and staff were excellent. The rooms were great - very clean and with a North American sized King. Buffet breakfast was great as well as the coffee/cafe in lobby (although limited hours and small bites available). We enjoyed our stay but may consider a quieter neighbourhood next time.
- cheryl (10/5): - Superb service, great location.
- Cynthia (10/5): - Great location, close to many landmarks. I was able to walk to tour St. Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin Castle and Book of Kells. Grafton shopping district has great shops, restaurant, and entertainment. Hotel buffet breakfast is wonderful.
- Brian (10/5): - This is the second year we've stayed at the Grafton ... love this place and the surrounding area!

Over and above for everything and such a wonderful sense of humour. Room 605 was clean, spacious bright and had a lovely view. We loved the room and daily amenities such as water, coffee, tea etc… breakfast was fit for a king and queen with full buffet service including eggs, sausage, bacon, fruits, breads, yogurt, coffee, tea and sweet trays. Walking location to everything your heart could desire. Thank you again for your kind generosity and accommodating nature. Hopefully one day we will be blessed to return.

- Richard (10/5): - location
- Tara (10/5): - Lovely quiet room in a great area.
- Elisabeth (10/5): - The concierge group is fantastic! I would let them plan my trip again! Great location!
- Mary (10/5): - Really great hotel! We have stayed in 4 hotels during our 9 day trip to London and Ireland. This hotel was by far the most comfortable. Room was clean and spacious, bed was big and comfortable, iron and ironing board, mini fridge, electric tea kettle, shampoo/body wash and conditioner. A common issue we have noticed with toilets in the UK is the lack of water pressure. This hotel’s toilet did not have this problem! Hotel staff was very friendly and kind-true Irish hospitality! The location was perfect! 15 min or less walk to st Patrick’s cathedral, trinity college, and Dublin castle! Great pubs and restaurants all over! Parking is not attached to the hotel but it is so close it isn’t an issue at all, and they validate/discount the parking. Would recommend and stay here again!
- Julie (10/5): - Sabastian at the front desk and Noel-concierge were incredibly welcoming, helpful and accommodating. Great bar inside the hotel. Buffet breakfast, and location of hotel were great. An easy walk to everything.
- Renee (10/5): - Great location, quiet, clean, nice bed and sheets.
- Maureen (10/5): - Very impressed!
- Kris (10/5): - Loved our family style room and the staff provided early check-in for us. Walkable to all of the Dublin sites.
- Nicole (10/5): - We stayed in several hotels around Ireland. Grafton had the best bed and pillows and was very quiet despite being next to a very popular pizza place that had block long lines. Lots of great pubs nearby.
- wendy (10/5): - Hotel was ideally located in Grafton shopping demand dining area. Easy walk to anything you want to see. Hotel seems new inside. Room was large, beds weee comfy and bathrooms clean and new. Shower pressure was great.
- Sandy (10/5): - Great hotel and excellent service
- Patricia (10/5): - All

- Lauren (10/5): - The entire staff was phenomenal
- Joanne (10/5): - Loved it!! Had an amazing experience!! The staff were amazing!!
- Kelly (10/5): - Awesome
- Jacqueline (8/5): - Convenient close to everything , comfortable hotel .
- Client (10/5): - Cellent stay as always
- Julia (10/5): - Noel was the best Concierge I have ever encountered! He was the epitome of what a Concierge does and stands for in this industry.
- Tom (8/5): All the fundamentals done well - We stayed at the Grafton over several nights including Saint Patrick’s Day, when any downtown hotel would be put to the test. The best features of the Grafton, in descending order are 1. The Staff 2. The central location 3. Room comfort 4. Quiet 5. Food 6. Decor. I doubt the interior decor was great when it was new. Now it feels like a hangover from the 1980s and it is far from a budget hotel.
- John (10/5): - Excellent
- Chris (10/5): - Staff was extremely helpful, let us check in early, and got us taxi service.
- Andrew (10/5): - Staff was amazing! Very welcoming. Room was nice and clean. Perfect location in Dublin. A
- Alison (10/5): - Staff really friendly nothing too much trouble. Hotel beautiful in great location
- Francesca (10/5): - We loved staying here! Clean, convenient, and lots of great stores and restaurants right outside
