"in general great stay"
We had a wonderful stay at clarion hotel. Staff were friendly, facilities 4 adults plus children alike were great and the breakfast was delicious. The only problem we had which wasnt a major one was that we were going to have an evening meal in the hotel we couldn`t as the only restaurant available was an oriental one which food my 4 yr old wouldnt eat.

"Fab Family Hotel"
Great for all the family. So much going on for kids that you dont really need to leave the hotel. Then the shopping centre is within walking distance. Cant wait to go back.

"Excellent staff...a joy for young families"
Every member of staff encountered was friendly and helpful...considerate of every member of the family and very concerned with best customer experience. (Room service guy! Evan the barista! Reservations manager online) This more than makes up for slightly tired decor (understandable that things wear out quickly in such a deservably busy hotel). The location was perfectly convenient for the car traveller. Parking security was appreciated. Restaurant was chock a block but actually worth it. (Great idea distracting the kids with the ambling entertainer). Better info (maps/advice) re finding bus stops into city centre would be helpful. Free WiFi was excellent but needed it for that bus research! When upgrading please consider aircon or quieter fans and more modern movable showers on hoses are invaluable when hosing down small children! (Do hotel architects have kids?). I cannot believe the bargain I got for three days of such comfort and service. Thank you

Good place to stay. Excellent room, good leisure facilities, unfortunately had to queue for breakfast which was a little frustrating, recommend breakfast is taken before 10am. Staff were exellent and very polite.

"Great Hotel... Shame about location"
Hotels facilities, staff, restaraunt, health suite all excellent. One and only drawback is the location. The Hotel is a little outside the city centre and is 25 to 30 mins on a bus or 20 minutes in a taxi.

"Lovely stay!"
Everything was brilliant and rooms were beautiful! Only issue was heat of rooms during the night made it difficult to sleep but a fan was provided in each room so this helped to cool it down :) Would definitely stay again :)

"We really enjoyed our stay at the hotel"
The only thing I would say is I asked about a hoist into the swimming pool as my son is wheelchair bound and the receception lady rang the pool area and they confrmed they had one. When we arrived at the pool no one bothered to mention it at all and there was no sign of any equiptment to help him in the pool. However, the pool was expremely busy so my son wouldn`t get in. He sat at the side in his wheelchair to watch and after a while a lady came out and asked him if he needed help getting into the pool. It would have been nicer had the hoist already been available for when we arrived in order to avoid people being made to feel different.A side of this we really did enjoy our stay at the hotel.

"Very good family hotel with excellent facilities"
This was our second visit to the Clarion in Liffey Valley and we all enjoyed it immensely. Our 10 year old son is an avid swimmer and loves the pool. And the hotel is next to an excellent thai restaurant Lemongrass and the Liffey Valley shopping centre which houses a Vue cinema and Eddie Rockets burger restaurant all favourite venues. Would definitely visit again as the location and facilities are next to none and the staff are excellent and very helpful.

"Excellent break"
Hotel staff very friendly from check in to checkout, nothing was a bother from directions to room to local shopping centre. Everyone seems very relax and smiling giving lots of helpful information like offers in the bar/restaurant for meals & drinks etc. Room was lovely good size with everything you need for overnight stay +++ water was really hot in the shower excellent really enjoyed that. Went to pool etc on Friday was great very quiet, Saturday was more busy with families but still enjoyable. Have already booked to go back and we stay in lots of hotels North and South diffinitely value for money and staff make it so much better than some other 5* we have stayed in.

"This is not a 4 star hotel."
General decor is 2 or 3 star standard at best. Bedrooms are a good standard. Breakfast very disappointing! Staff while pleasant and helpful were all non nationals - it would be nice if there some Irish employees.

"Comfortable bed"
The rooms were large, however, we asked for a quiet room and were driven mad by loud disco music till the early hours of the morning. Staff were efficient and facilities were clean. I enjoyed a swim in the pool but was disappointed that you needed to pay 3 Pounds for a swim hat. This was not mentioned on the web site.
