Ruby Molly Hotel Dublin by IHG

Ruby Molly Hotel Dublin by IHG

10/10 Excellent
"We loved our stay at the Ruby Molly! The rooms were extremely clean and comfortable. The lobby/bar/restaurant area was super chic and vibey. We had some great meals and drinks there and were able to hang out as a group easily. It is worth noting that there is some construction going on outside the hotel and it is not on the most well-lit street - if you are unfamiliar with walking through a city at night, you might not like the location. But it was extremely easy to walk across the river to the Temple Bar area and other attractions. Also a quick walk to the Jameson factory and other pubs/restaurants on the same side of the river. We loved the Ruby Molly and would stay here again!"

She offered to change our rooms which we did. I left a makeup mirror in the old room and Maria retrieved it the next day. Maria was extremely helpful. Hotel location is in an excellent location close to many restaurants and transportation to airport and train station. We enjoyed our stay.
