3.0 star property
9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (1000)
"Really a near-perfect place to stay in Dublin's center. Conveniently situated close to Temple Bar (a five-minute walk), Dublin Castle and much more, but far enough from the madding crowds to be peaceful at night. The rooms are comfortable (there's an elevator, too), the staff friendly, and the in house restaurant (the Copper Pot) was quite good for breakfast. Major bonus points for the attached pub, Darkey Kelly's is a fine example, and resident musicians The Dublin Bards (they play several...

"Hotel needs total overall to bring up to required modern standards - floors squeak when walked on, sink had no plug, flooring in bathroom coming up, TV was ancient and did not work anyway. First room given - the radiator did not work so room was like an ice box so has to be asked to move which the hotel did to a room where the radiator worked. Everything needs ripping out and new modern furniture put in plus re decorated all over."

"A friend & I have been looking foward to staying at The Clarence for a long time. We loved the hotel itself, the bar area, and the restaurant. The staff were really welcoming, friendly and helpful. I personally was a little disappointed with the room, whilst overall lovely decor, this room clearly needed a little TLC. The hotel is not at the cheaper end of the market, so I didn't expect damp in the bathroom or a rusty radiator. Also, there was a large stain on the carpet. Whilst not huge issues...
