Grand Canal Hotel

Grand Canal Street, Dublin

Grand Canal Hotel's excellent location in Georgian Dublin in the affluent Ballsbridge area makes the hotel the perfect base to discover Dublin. The city centre and Trinity College are easily accessible on foot in 15 minutes. DART station 'Grand Canal Dock' is across the road, which is ideal for day trips to Dublin's seaside (beach, cliff walks, etc.)
Grand Canal Hotel opened in 2004 and its 142 bedrooms offer a warm and friendly atmosphere. The hotel is very secure and floors and rooms are only accessible with a personal key card. A car park is located directly at the hotel and is complimentary for our guests. Guests can enjoy a full Irish or continental breakfast in the Epic Restaurant or a snack/beverage in the Gasworks Bar. Canal Express coffee bar offers a variety of freshly brewed coffees or delicious smoothies on the run.

    Hotel is functional, its good value. The staff were a little disorganised, but did have some coach tours to attend to.

    Pleasant business style hotel. Good value for money, but had to pay for wifi access which was a disappointment. Located close to a DART station and an easy walk into the city centre. Free car park. Good for a short visit.
