Restaurant/bar service was very very average. Room was so uncomfortable because we couldn’t control the heat and the air was so dry- really restless sleep! Bar is dated also. Food was good though and the service was great at the front door.

Not 5 star

The service was definitely not on par. We had a few hick ups. First you step out of the staffs way, not the other way around (we were there for 5 days). The breakfast is mediocre. The bed is a little too soft for my husband but didn't bother me. We had ordered to use their shuttle but instead of booking it for us they ordered two taxis, which we had to pay for one (fine, but bad service). And so bad but their TP you could use as a note pad. We had to buy outside, even my daughter who visited us from UCD commented how it was so bad. No I wouldn't stay there again as a 5*. I have a feeling they get away with it being near the US embassy.

Lovely oasis in Ballsbridge area of Dublin. Lots of traffic in Dublin, so it took 20-30 minutes to get anywhere near Dublin City center, but Ubers and taxis were plentiful. The spa services and pool area were amazing and unique, and a welcome respite from all the walking and cold weather. Food was good. Service was friendly and attentive, and Afternoon Tea was fabulous.

The hotel was fabulous. The best water pressure in the shower! However, not very happy with hotel.com as I noticed our stay on the reservations was one day longer than i planned and i could not cancel the last night for both rooms with a 3 day notice. If i booked directly with the hotel they would have accommodated this request but i had no luck with hotel.com with 3 attempts.

Lovely hotel and well kept! This used to be a Four Seasons and you can tell. Great fitness center and the hotel is close to several walkable restaurants and pubs. This is not in the heart of the Temple party area but only 4 miles and the large rooms are worth the location. Very safe and great service.

For 400 Euro a night I don’t expect to ask for the floor to be hoovered and for them to remove a previous occupant’s underwear.

Quick walk to some great places to eat and drink, including the Girl and the Goose, Mr. Magpie, and the Bridge Bar. RDS Stadium right there too which hosts all sorts of venues.

Our recent stay at the Intercontinental Dublin was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment we arrived, we were treated with exceptional hospitality. A special mention goes to Gary, whose outstanding service and warm welcome truly set the tone for our visit. He surprised us with an upgrade to a junior suite, and it was a delightful experience.

The junior suite was spacious, elegantly decorated, and equipped with all the luxurious amenities one could desire. The attention to detail in the room was impressive, from the plush bedding to the thoughtful touches that made our stay comfortable and memorable.

We enjoyed the serene views from our suite, and the hotel’s location provided a perfect balance of tranquility and accessibility to Dublin’s vibrant city life. The on-site dining options were superb, offering delicious meals that catered to all tastes.

Overall, our stay at the Intercontinental Dublin exceeded all expectations. We left feeling rejuvenated and eager to return. Highly recommend this hotel for anyone seeking a luxurious and memorable stay in Dublin.

True 5-star hotel, but would not recommend the spa. Dated facilities and they say due to government regulations they cannot do traditional facial, so did not include things like skin exam, pore cleanse, etc. they end up rubbing your chest half the time and massaging your cheekbones the rest.

Lovely hotel. Rooms lovely and clean. Breakfast was a disappointment, running out of everything on the buffet and having to ask for everything even a cup of coffee. Hard to find staff to ask for breakfast items. Children handling buffet unsupervised is always a turn off. My husband ended up showing some how to use the toaster. Would have been nice if the pool had some adult only slots.

The spa was great. Loved the adults only pool hours from noon-4 daily. There could've been more lounge chairs at the pool and better enforcement of the no jumping rule. The kids were unruly. The breakfast is great. Breakfast staff was great. The lunch and dinner in the lobby lounge was a ZERO. Bad service, limited selection and food that was not as good as the pricing. Would I stay again? Sure, the room was great, i felt safe and the location was great. But the Lobby Lounge is ruining this property. As well as an angry doorman. Well, one day he was angry...then the next he wasn't. I would expect better.

I am a fan of Intercontinental properties as they are a top brand and typically 5 star or have some uniqueness about them. Dublin Intercontinental was good because it was away from the touristy area but that meant taxi fares anywhere you want to go. The rooms, spa and bar were as expected. The dinner lounge/restaurant was well appointed but menu was lacking. Breakfast was good but staff was short handed or inattentive. Kind of disappointing when you expect some specialness at a 5 star property. Dublin Intercontinental needs some direction to get to the next level.

The Intercontinental is a beautiful hotel in a quiet neighborhood. It’s away from the hustle and bustle of the main city but also not within walking distance. Taxis and Ubers are the only way to get around. There is a small train nearby which take you north or south.
There are some good small cafes and restaurants nearby within walking distance
Our room was large, a junior suite. We didn’t have much of a view. The room overall was clean but the tile grout in the bathroom and shower was awful. It wasn’t just staining but grime and hadn’t been cleaned in ages.
The staff were pleasant although not overly helpful. We had the a la carts breakfast a few days and it was decent. We did not try the buffet.
We came in early after a flight and our room wasn’t ready which was fine. We left our bags and returned at check in time to find it still wasn’t ready. So we waited for our room and then waited for our luggage. After asking twice and being told it was ‘on the way’, we had to leave for a reservation without our luggage and without getting to change clothes.
Overall, this was still a very nice hotel
