Very enjoyable stay. I was there for one night on a business trip and found the hotel very comfortable, the food lovely and the staff very helpful. If i was coming up again for a business trip i would stay here.

I stay at the Grand Canal several times a year, always on business. I find the staff friendly and helpful. The rooms are very good for a three star hotel. The breakfast is varied and enjoyable. The car park and central location (close to the DART)are an added bonus. I will continue to us this hotel for my trips to Dublin.

We stayed four nights at the Grand Canal Hotel in Dublin from 15 June 2008. Our first impression of our queen room was good, until we realised how loud the traffic noise was, even with the window closed. We asked if we could be moved to a quieter room and the reception staff obliged and offered another room at the rear of the hotel. We only spent a couple of minutes in this room, as the vent in the bathroom was emitting a very loud noise. We were a little apprehensive about requesting another room, but decided it was in our best interest to do so. The reception staff did offer another room, reminding us that this was the last one they had to offer us. Thank goodness, third time lucky, we found a quiet queen room at the rear of the hotel. Overall, the hotel was a good 3 star hotel. The staff did not appear to be able to cope with the amount of guests at breakfast time. We would recommend going elsewhere for breakfast, as the food was not satisfactory.

Stayed at the Grand Canal for two nights -as a family we had three rooms. Welcoming staff, helpful and professional. Rooms were clean and good standard. The adjacent Gasworks was excellent, great food and hospitality.Beds were comfortable. Slightly out from the town centre but walkable and accessible. Breakfast was excellent, staff were attentive and helpful, the breakfast buffet was always topped up. Reception was very good, ordered taxis for us and catered for our requests. Overall we had a very good stay - we have recommended it to friends on our return and would use the hotel again on our next visit to Dublin.

Very nice stay. Excellent food.

The room was clean and well equipped. Front desk staff were very friendly and helpful. Good central location.

dining room closed ie for a private party poor selection of food on bar menu

The Grand Hotel was absolutely georgous. We were all so pleased with it. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The hotel was very central. The rooms were spotless, and very spacious. It had everything that you could possibly need, hair dryer, plenty towels, shampoo, conditioner, tea and coffee making facilities, biscuits, and an iron and ironing board. I have stayed in a few five star hotels that would not match up to the standards of this hotel. The adjoining restaurant was excellent as well. I would definitely recommend this Hotel to friends going to Dublin and would certainly not hesitate in staying there myself again. Thanks. Regards, T Hayes

We recommend this hotel it had a very good comfortable bed,very quite,wonderful helpful staff at all times, good facilities and the breakfast was good as well.Had a nice bar where you could get light meals.Was also easy to get to the airport from their. It was walking distance to the city, but you could catch the hop on hop off bus near by. No complaints at all we will definitely stay there again. Top Staff. Regards Mrs E. Rouse N.Z.

We recently stayed in the Grand Canel Hotel while going to a concert in the RDS. The hotel was within walking distance and the reception staff were very helpful in showing us the most direct route to the concert. Before heading to the RDS we have a gorgeous meal in the bar and again the staff were very efficient at a time that the bar was full. The hotel was clean, fresh and airy. There is also underground parking at the hotel which is an added bonus in a Dublin hotel.
