Portmarnock Resort & Jameson Golf Links, hotel in Malahide

Tucked away in a quiet corner of ‘The Velvet Strand’, one of Ireland’s most stunning stretches of uninterrupted coastline - the historic Portmarnock Resort & Jameson Golf Links, once the family home...

Room was a nice size and comfortable. Bar/restaurants were nice and food was excellent. Staff was always nice and helpful, especially Brian, the concierge - super attentive, always greeted us with a smile and asked if we needed anything. The property grounds were beautiful, from what we could see (stormy/rainy for our entire 1-night stay).

Great location for Dublin airport. Hotel supplies a shuttle bus, which is 24/7 (as well as secure parking and EV charging). Staff were friendly and helpful. Room was excellent - huge comfortable bed, range of tea/coffee facilities (coffee maker) as well as a mini fridge (with water supplied) 40+ TV screen, iron/ironing board, hairdryer and walk in dressing area. Our room even had a balcony with views over the airport. The windows/doors are triple glazed so had no noise and the curtains were blackout - much appreciated!

Metro Hotel Dublin Airport, hotel in Malahide

The Metro Hotel Dublin is a 7-minute drive from Dublin Airport and 4 miles from central Dublin. It offers modern rooms with free WiFi and a stylish restaurant with a bar.

I still have to give a HUGE THANKS to the staff who helped me because I had a panick attack during my stay. They were all very helpful and helped me to get a doctor near the hotel on a Sunday! The barkeeper on the arrival night was also very friendly. The room was comfortable (we were lucky to get a free upgrade) and we took the breakfast one morning, it was also very good. There is a bus stop close to the hotel and more or less every 10/15 minutes a bus going directly to Dublin city center. The stay was not cheap anyway it's not the hotel itself, prices are just high in Dublin generally.

    The guest house is just ten minutes' walk from Malahide village and Malahide Castle. Plenty to do for the kids and bars in the evening for the adults. Malahide is about 30-40 minutes' drive or DART (light rail) from the Dublin city centre, so you get the best of both worlds. The guest house itself was clean and warm with friendly helpful staff. A great choice for families.

    The Grand is a local landmark in Malahide (my home town) and this is the second year I've stayed here for family visits at Christmas time. Rooms are well appointed spacious and the bed very comfortable, decent shower too! Reception on arrival was lovely and the bar and breakfast staff are great. Breakfast is superb, classic full Irish on offer and plenty of it. I'd describe the hotel as classic in it's style with comfortable communal areas.

    Location, facilities, room was spacious. it was quiet and the curtains are blackout so it allows for a good rest. Fast check-in and check-out. They had the room ready with baby cot. Breakfast was really nice and view from the restaurant is lovely. Good changing facilities for baby in the lobby area. Staff super friendly with families and helpful when asking for high chair etc.

    Everything was perfect. We came for a wedding, the staff at reception, very helpful, so much space with children , different areas in the hotel to chill, I would totally recommend., Breakfast in the very spacious restraunt where all the family could get together (we were at least 20 people ), I would definitely return if I'm ever back that way again. Thank you to all the staff for making our stay so easy and relaxed.
