Hate giving negative reviews, however … unfortunately I’ve no choice but to give this hotel a somewhat negative review as it gives the impression it craves nothing but a ‘negative review’… it’s so bad in its main social area The Globe bar and in the breakfast department it’s hard to root out positives but I’ll try be as balanced as I can. It presents as ‘staff just don’t care or are poorly trained which in fairness lays in the fault of management. Ok, First the positive, front of house staff are slow to check in and allow queues to form, very pleasant however and the ladies I met were obviously experienced know how to make you feel welcome, so plus plus plus.. reward these people… The Staff member who ‘half heartedly’ promote self service check in don’t really believe in it. (I don’t blame them) need to be trained as to its benefits which will reduce queue. Room was fine all the usual comfort no complaints. The bar/restaurant- no words,in fact I do “Absolutely Shocking” start to finish, this group of people just don’t care. Here is the list, Customer’s left standing for an extended length of time at a lectern with a cheap laminated sign saying ‘please wait to be seated’ only to be met by a staff member who either could not seem to pick a table full of empty tables or make any sign of eye contact or pleasantries say, ‘come on’ and lead customer to a table. Seen staff wander round with shirts hang out of trousers. Flick trays out pure boredom they dropped onto floor making noise and dropping glasses. At 10pm I ordered a round of drinks only to be told ‘They had run out of Guinness’ I was shocked and the further shocked to hear a bar stay say when questioned by another customer how could a bar in Ireland run out of Guinness say ‘welcome to the Clayton’ like this is a regular occurrence. I’m Irish and I was extremely disappointed when the bar full of a European sports team for example expecting to drink our one of our finest beverages only to be told ‘We have ‘run out’? I was so disappointed and then to hear staffs flippant remark then to hear a tourist say ‘wow Ireland i’s a joke’ how could they run out of Guinness?? This hotel bar clearly do Not care. Decor, paintwork is shameful in the Globe bar. Pain brush marks on door frames dust and dirt everywhere. Christmas decorations still up in places in April. Dirty stains on bar lounge chairs. Ceiling filthy especially round vents. The hotel needs a deep overhaul and a deep clean, staff need a huge training drive I don’t blame them I blame their training. Breakfast again, quite frankly shocking. Food not replenished on regular basis. Coffee was terrible burned beyond any acceptable limits in its coffee urn. On way back to my room I overheard a grouper staff complaining about how overworked and burned out they are as they walked by my room. This definitely is evident. Won’t be staying here again, terrible. €7 for a pint of Guinness and €3.50 for a small bag of peanuts … unbelievable cheek given the state of the place.
Pool changing room floor filthy, restaurant was chaotic with what seemed like very inexperienced staff leaving tables unattended and not taking orders. Place in general seems a bit tired , pool it’s self is very small and was packed while we were there.
Stayed for one night during the Easter break with two children. Hotel was quite busy. Self check in kiosk was quite easy to use so it sped up the checking in process. Room was clean. Beds were comfortable. Restaurant staff were friendly and efficient. Food was quite nice. Deirdre on the front desk was very friendly and helpful. The only complaint I have is the smell of smoke during the night. It's supposed to be a non smoking hotel. I woke up several times during the night to a strong smell of cigarettes and weed. Breakfast was very nice. Again the dining hall staff were very friendly and attentive. It's just a pity about the smoke smell.
Good hotel, handy location for that side of the city and for Liffey Valley shopping centre. We had a good room, it was clean and comfortable and had no complaints. We ate there two nights, it was hard to get a table but that’s to be expected in the city and in the run up to Christmas and most of the staff were trying to get us seated as quick as possible. Breakfast was standard and was busy (as advertised and expected) at the later times. We used the pool too, no issues with getting in when we wanted or crowds so it was a good weekend all around.
Thank u to Ina a Duty Manager from Clayton Hotel Liffey Valley n her lovely team who made my n my friend weekend memorable. The friendliness n welcoming n care which we received was exactly what we needed to never forget our stay in the Dublin. The breakfast was lovely n well organised. Ina u r the star for us.
