Just out of curiosity I checked out prices and and availability. I chose the Quality Hotel Dublin City.

All worked fine except for one small missing piece of information.

At no stage does the website tell you where the hotel is! Now I know where it is but I don't think the average visitor to Dublin necessarily will. :rolleyes:

How am I supposed to choose a hotel if I don't know if it's in a suitable location???

Final note: I did eventually find a link with directions, but that's hardly adequate.

I was just checking for the Dublin Hotel myself as I need to go at the end of June. Could you tell me where abouts it is?
Thanks

SoBe

im not affiliated with the site in any way,i wanted to book something for when my fiance comes over in the next couple of weeks.

i had no problem finding locations for the hotels once i clicked hotel locations on the bottom of the page,it even gave directions to them.

i guess if you have an issue with the site email them and say something.

i just thought it was good value and wanted to pass it on to whoever might also be interested

no pleasing some people i guess :rolleyes:

/rant over

The only thing inadequate is the extent you tried looking through the site for the location:rolleyes:

Follow Gardiner Street for 1 km to Customs House and continue over river Liffey at Customs House Quay. Take Left along Sr. John Rogersons Quay for 1 km. Turn Right at Ferryman Pub at Cardiff Lane. Hotel is on Right hand side.

Good find OP:)

I said I did find directions. That's not the same as a location when looking for a hotel.

I'd expect a hotel looking for customers to prominently state the area it's in, i.e. South Docklands, or John Rogersons Quay, or even Dublin 2.

Woohoo, nice find, family break for the boy's birthday is in order, methinks! Thanks

Definitely not, checked if the dates I wanted were available, and 4 nights for me, hubby & kiddywinkle in the youghal hotel worked out at 212 yoyo. In June, no less.

I cant seem to get the deal. Comes up as a minimum of €53 per night in most hotels. Is there somewhere in particular on the site you have to enter.
