"Breakfast, lack of water"

One issue i had was at breakfast we had to queue for approx 30 mins to be seated when there was alot of free tables, some of the staff walked passed us on a few occasions without any explanation as to why were not being seated, the queue on both mornings was out the dining room door. The other issue i had although this was probably out of your hands was the shortage of water, we were prepared for there to be a shortage in the evenings after 8 pm but we had no water all day on sat and when the water came back on it was black.

"Building Work ongoing...."

The room and general service aspects were good but it may have been helpful to have known that extensive alterations were taking place at the hotel

"Not as good as last year"

We visited the hotel last year and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. This year we were disappointed with the stay. Staff were excellent as usual and service was great. However, we were not told that this year the bar/ restaurant area was closed and the hotel closed off the main restaurant so, apart from a very small bar, there was nowhere to eat or have a drink. The hotel was packed out with only a few facilities available. Probably will not come back again to this hotel

"Great rooms, wonderful reception staff, fabulous bar and staff all very friendly - breakfast poor."

We arrived very early, thankfully room available immediately. I liked the hotel and the most of the staff. One problem was Breakfast, the maitre de was rude and dismissive, and she was not interested that our breakfast hadn`t arrived; the buffet was by this time - 10.20ish - stale. We had two really lovely waitresses but the fresh eggs had to be brought from the kitchen from the other side of the hotel hence cold eggs and hard boiled eggs. I have always found breakfast in a hotel an important start to the day if that goes wrong ...

The hotel is large but very tired. The furniture in the rooms is old and marked. The drawers in the chests were falling to pieces with some completely off their runners and in the bathroom sealing round the basin and bath was black and pealing off. When booking a double room I expected a double bed. But all rooms on our floor seemed to be twin beds. I had booked two rooms for my son and his wife as well. I would not book with Hotel Direct again as I object to paying in advance at the time of booking. I have never had to do that before.

"Great food and great service but tired-looking property."

We stayed at the Burlington for 4 nights in May/June. The location of the hotel was great and the food and service were excellent. The hotel has an impressive foyer where it is pleasant to linger over a drink or even a meal. However, the furniture throughout the hotel is showing serious signs of wear and tear. The property is in serious need of refurbishment and we understand that it is in the works. Once the work is completed, the overall rating would no doubt go from Good to Excellent.

The rooms were clean and comfortable. The staff at breakfast could have been more accomodating we had to ask each morning for our hot drinks. The food was very nice and lots of choices.

The hotel was great. Nice spacious room. Clean and modern. Friendly staff. The food was lovely and there was a very good variety to choose from at the breakfast buffet. 5 minutes in a taxi to Temple bar. Will definitely stay here again.

"A friendly,clean and comfortable hotel"

We enjoyed our stay on the whole. The room was very clean and cosy. Staff were helpful and friendly. The food could have been better. Pub grub really. The sports lounge was very noisy with so many large TV screens showing football. We were disappointed to find the restaurant closed both nights. It`s a bit out of the centre of Dublin which is fine if the weather is OK. Otherwise it means taxis.

"Very pleasant, helpful staff, and lovely food"

Enjoyed my 3 night stay at this hotel: comfortable and welcoming, with great conference facilities and an excellent buffet breakfast. The hotel room is a little dated in terms of the `old` TV but I enjoyed having a bath in the bathroom though it took 30 hours to run the water! The hotel has good Wifi. I also used the business centre to get some last-minute photocopies and was extremely pleased with the very prompt service. Did not get to use the gym facilities during my stay. Would highly recommend this hotel, which has much to recommend it as a base for business and relaxation.

"Has seen better days! Public areas look a bit tired. "

Very comfortable Rooms which meet the 4 star grade. Onlythe claim to be close to the City Centre is a little misleading. It needs to be pointed out that it was a 15 minute walk away which in terms of Dublin is quite far.
