Jul 17, 2008

We recently booked a 3 day trip to the Fitzwilliam Hotel for a honeymoon, largely based on the reviews we had read on this website. When we arrived the reception staff were very helpful and friendly giving us advice etc. We had chosen a deluxe package with breakfast, the room was a nice size but not spectacular, we had a good view over st stephens green and the bed was big and comfortable. The decor of the room was a little garish for our tastes but neat and tidy. The hotel had left us a box of chocolates and a message from the manger congratulating us on our wedding which was a nice touch. The first issue came the next morning when i went for a shower and there was no hot water, i called reception and they phoned back within 5 minutes to say the boiler was broken, this was at 7 in the morning, as i didn't have to be anywhere i was happy to stay in bed and wait, eventually the hot water came back on at about 10am, and the shower was wonderful. But had i had to leave early in the morning i would have been none too pleased, The other 2 mornings the hot water was fine and the following morning another box of chocolates arrived apologising for the water situation. The only other disapointment was the breakfast which was a buffet type affair, the quality of which i felt was a little poor given the standard and price of the hotel. Overall i felt the hotel was nice and we did enjoy ireland alot, but for the price i came away feeling a little disapointed especially as other hotels we had stayed in from the tripadvisor 'top 20' have been great

Absolutely enjoyed the Fitzwilliam. The staff and concierge were extremely helpful. The location is excellent, right off of St. Stephen's Green. So close to everything, and great restaurants nearby. Room was clean, although a bit small, but well decorated. We could have stayed longer! I wish all our accommodations were this comfortable! Kudos again to the staff, very friendly & helpful. I will stay here again when I return to Dublin.

“Could have been great, but we had bad luck”

Fitzwilliam Hotel

Jun 17, 2008

We are always unlucky with chosing rooms. The fitzwilliam has had great reviews, but my boyfriend (now fiance!), booked us a deluxe room, without my knowledge (lots of surprises!), but the room itself was rather dissappointing. Bathroom was a bit pokey, with a small seperate shower from the bath. We eventually actually opted for a smaller, quieter room and actually downgraded. If you look at this hotel, make sure you clarify what you want as deluxe isn't doesn't always live up to it, and you may end up paying more than you need as the standard rooms are actually pretty decent.

For a positive, the breakfasts are fantastic! Free Irish papers as well.

On another neagitve, it really is a tourist hotel, so doesn't have the boutique feeling of the Dylan (which we have stayed in a couple of times). I won't be rushing back and am still on the hunt for the perfect Dublin hotel, though I will have very fond memories of Dublin on the 14th June 2008.

1/1 found this review helpful

Being a native Dub we decided to treat oursleves to a night in town to celebrate my birthday. I cannot fault the Fitzwilliam. The staff could not do enough for us. Nothing was a problem. The room was immaculate and comfortable with plenty of extra luxuries. I was a bit disappointed that we did not have a view. As previously stated the courtyard is nice but s only for looking at. I have dined in the Fitzwilliam bar a few times, it is always pleasant but the bar is a bit remote at the back of the hotel with no view to people watch. That said location is key to all amenities. We dined in Shanahans which is a two minute walk in heels : ) Room service breakfast was very tasty. All in all it was a pleasure.

I can not fault the service offered at the Fitzwilliam Hotel, on arrival check-in staff were helpful.
Ideal cetral location, with courtesy umbrellas (needed with the weather), breakfast was fast and efficent so i was well fuelled for a days exploring.
