"Good location, friendly staff and excellent standard of room"

All of the above. If your after peace and quiet then request a 5th floor room. Luckily we were on this floor, with a night club below, I can imagine it can be quite loud if on the lower floors

having stayed in Dublin before , my wife and I can strongly recommend this hotel . The Gaiety Theatre , Grafton Street , St Stephen`s Green , Temple Bar area , Trinity College , Dublin Castle , St Patrick`s Cathedral , Christchurch Cathedral , Dublinia Viking Exhibition are all within 10min walking distance . The Hotel rooms are clean and the staff very friendly , the full irish breakfast was fanastic , car parking is available at 12 euros a day just around the corner at the royal college of surgeons car-park . My wife and I both enjoyed staying here , and intend to stay again next year .

Staff, especially room maids were excellent, however, room was not of a good standard, mattress needed renewing, bathroom desperately in need of refurbishment, hairdryer poor (tok FOREVER to dry hair), no complimentary biscuits to go with tea and coffee in room. Having stayed at this hotel on previous occasions we are saddened to see how much it has deteriorated both in appearance and service. We will not be returning.

"Conveniently situated in city centre"

Old Hotel but in reasonable condition. Had not got my reservation when I arrived and thought I wass going to get bounced! Breakfast - staff very helpful but "hot" food was barely warm. Room rather noisy as opposite pub but I guees non facing rooms would be quieter. I would give them 6out of 10.

"Smashinn Hotel"

I booked the Grafton for the weekend to celebrate my partners birthday. After looking at several reviews i was undecided about this hotel. However when we arrived the staff were very friendly especially Claire who works on reception. The room was basic but comfortable. There is a disco downstairs so if noise is a problem then suggest a room on a higher floor. The Hotel is very central and I would recommend to anyone travelling to Dublin on a budget .

"Good value hotel right in the heart of Dublin"

Good value hotel. Asked for a quiet room as I was in Dublin for exams. They were happy to help. Some traffic noise but easy to zone out. I didn`t stay whilst the bar was open so don`t know how noisy it is. Overall, I was very happy with this hotel and would recommend it. :)

"Fab location"

Stayed over new year, the location of the hotel was excellent with bars, restaurants and shops all close by and the club was really handy for celebrating the new year in style. The reception staff were very friendly and helpful and gave us an upgrade on our room without us even asking! The breakfast was ok, all in all a great stay.

"Great Location, good sized rooms but very noisy. if you like to sleep, not a preferred option!"

The hotel location is perfect. Very central.The service was average. nothing exceptional but no complaints however, the hotel has a pub/bar/club and the music can be heard even on the 4th floor in the rooms till late hours in the morning. We stayed Fri Sat and Sun and we heard the music past 2-3 am on fri/sat and even after midnite on Sun despite double glazing in the rooms!Think I would like my money back or a considerable amount back for the inconvenience.

"Excellent location and nice room"

We stayed at the Grafton Capital Hotel in order to attend a wedding in Dublin, with an early flight the following morning. The hotel has an excellent location in quite a nice part of Dublin city centre. The room was clean and well furnished, with a dressing table and a side table with chair. The beds were comfortable. The bathroom was clean with copious hot water. The hotel has excellent transport connections in Dublin city centre, being about five minutes walk from the "Aircoach" stop on Suffolk Street. Due to our early departure, we didn`t utilise any of the hotel`s other facilities, such as breakfast. I suspect that guests would use local restaurants, bars and coffee shops. In summary, a comfortable room at a good price (£69 for a double, Wednesday night) in an excellent location. Hard to beat for room-only.

Just spent a fabulous weekend in Dublin on a girls weekend. The Grafton Capitol is in an excellent location, very central to shops and bars. Staff were friendly and very helpful. The rooms were fine but quite grubby, carpet and and curtains in dire need of cleaning, and although the bathroom looked ok on the surface was in need of some maintenance. Water didn`t drain from sink and shower curtain needed replacing. Overall I would stay here again as it was a great location.

"Good location, bit tired"

Went for an overnight stay in Dublin with my daughter and got a good rate for the Grafton Capital. This hotel has definitely seen better days, there are certainly no frills, but then for the money we were not expecting too much. Staff were friendly and efficient, bedding was clean, but there was a stale smell in the room, there were three lamps, only one had a bulb that worked. For very little this hotel could be dragged into the 21st century.

"Beware the nightclub noise at the weekends if you require sleep!"

Rooms: very plain, not like web photos! Staff: bland, not the Irish hospitality I was expecting! Bar: more like a sports bar, beware if there is football on there will be no room! Tv: not satellite, although was not there for tv! Overall disappointing, do not go by the website very misleading....

"Enjoyable stay"

My husband, daughter and myself went to Ireland for the first time and wanted a hotel that was central so that we could walk to most sites and not have to rely on taxis. I would most certainly recommend this hotel for that. You could not ask for a more central position.The room and bathroom were clean, comfortable and of a good size with very comfortable beds. We shared a triple room and there was ample space for the three of us. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Only down side was no airconditioning or fans in the room. Ireland was having a heat wave so we had to have the windows open at night and it was a bit noisy. We had a lovely holiday in Dublin and will go back for another visit and we will most certainly will go back to this hotel.
