Beautiful

Honestly one of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed in. The Bonnington was easy to get to by bus , easy check in and check out . The staff were all friendly and helpful. The room was beautiful, spacious and very clean . Good amenities available and walking distance from bus stop, restaurants and shops . Can’t recommend this hotel enough
Debby, 1-night trip

For the price it could be better, good location

I make specifications (not all) but the lobby staff should be more friendly, I didn't know that the hotel didn't have air conditioning and the refrigerators couldn't be used.

Four star????

Well a four star is a bit of a stretch… The hotel is old clearly, but also not well kept. The rooms need serious updating….its a very basic hotel. Only one lift worked near the front desk and it was so small. The staff was friendly, but if you are at all weird about hotels this one would be a challenge for you.

Old hotel

Dated hotel, great staff got there late and nothing around to buy anything after a long flight . Could definitely use a vending machine or small shop
Mal, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great stay. Great hotel

Despite having reservations about hotels.com from seeing some not so great reviews. The hotel did receive our booking and all was okay. Just call up the hotel before hand to see if they have received the booking before you go. The hotel was a great find. Only 30 minutes to airport and 30 minutes into Dublin. Lovely facilities and nice and clean. Expensive breakfast though which was nice but nothing special.

The pool is amazing! Sauna and hot tubs! Not far from everything. Wish the restaurants stayed open later. It’s quiet.
Cheyanne, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

its ok

Room was ok, no exhaust fan in the bathroom-mold starting on the shower ceiling Maybe put reminders in the room about different restaurants hours-food service times etc beds were comfortable no outside food permitted on site-with a grocery store right beside it-hard if you have to leave before breakfast starts
2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Terrible stay

We had a terrible stay, false fire alarm going off many times during the night. Woke up the whole hotel. Customer service was horrible with no answers during this situation and no compensation for any of the guests. Many guests in lobby complaining and wanted answers. We found another hotel at 5am and checked out early. Called the hotel for a refund and emailed them, still no answers. Not sure how this is a 4 star hotel. I expected more from them. Will not recommend

Hotel room was okay. Staff members were awesome. Great service at check in and in the restaurant. Food was great as well. Did not think the room had air conditioning and the property was really hot inside. Other than that, solid stay.
Andrew, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

When we first arrived, I did explain to them because of the Travel hours. I have booked an extra night and asked was a refund offered. The lady laughed at me and said I don’t think so not in a nice way at all. Secondly, going to our room was very dark and scary we were all the way in the back and lights didn’t come on till we were at our door felt unsafe. Open door to the rooms smelled like smoke the entire time we had to open our windows to get the smell out that didn’t help plus didn’t like having window opened. It was very dated place. Only one elevator working and only one restaurant available. The staff was pretty much nice and friendly if need be I would stay there again, but I would definitely need a different room. Add stated no smoking hotel. My husband had health issues so it was very difficult to stay in there Also be prepared that they don’t have normal US sockets and you’ll have to purchase adapters sockets if need be no way to charge your phone or anything like that. It was a very busy time so it seemed to be over priced for the stay.
