What a delightful hotel; friendly and attentive staff. My room key needed to be reactivated daily. Nice rooms; I appreciate having the option of a shower or bath. Most hotels offer shower only rooms after remodeling. Breakfast in the hotel was amazing; included fresh fruits and juices, the traditional Irish entrees or you could opt for pancakes. Every meal includes potatoes; good potatoes. Something special about this hotel is the lavender balm. I meant to request more before I left. You rub this on your wrists or neck before bed and it is supposed to relax you and promote better sleep. It smells so good. read more

I stayed for a conference for three in the hotel and overall spent over €1000 with them. The is okay not on the cheaper scale of things when I was checking out I realised that I had a puncture and I went into and asked the gentleman if somebody could help me change the tire I was told that they were not insured and that I should contact my insurance company. I asked him are there any decent people left in Ireland and I was given a snigger as a reply. I'm quite disappointed that I was treated like this customer service and a small budget compassion needs to be addressed by Management. I am in the hospitality business myself and if any of my staff treat any customer with such coldness and lack of concern, I would be deeply upset. the first that people see on arrival and departure and I really feel that this gentleman has left down my overall experience shall I say is not the best. read more

Can't say enough good things about this hotel. I stayed in an Airbnb for our first night in Dublin and here our last night in Dublin. Wish I would have done both here! We had a car so it's only about a 15-20 min drive to get to the city center near Ha'Penny bridge. To keep this short and sweet this is my condensed review :) Pros: 1. Free car parking under the building in a garage 2. Breakfast buffet was amazing and sooo good 3. Room was comfortable and our first room In Ireland with a fridge 4. A bathtub that was separate from shower 5. Very friendly staff 6. Good location for off the main highways in and out of Dublin 7. Good price! 8. Super easy check in and checkout 9. Great gym 10. Proximity to a ton of shops across the street Cons: 1. The tv in our room had volume broken so even on volume 100 we couldn't hear it more than a whisper 2. No pool 3. No spa 4. Decor outside elevators a little tacky Overall this was a great hotel and definitely my choice for when we come back to Ireland!! read more

grand spot, kinda upscale, a lil expensive Service is generally lifeless and poor. Staff arnt very welcomming... kinda souless palce, but the food is great, the selection of drinks is very good and the palce is busy My only issue is with the staff.. its just not that friendly! read more

The Sanctuary Bar is a very sophisticated, relaxed and classy bar situated in the lobby of Blanchardstown's Crowne Plaza Hotel. The decor is lovely - the wallpaper is black with golden bird cages and birds flying free - it's really something... I was a little obsessed! The bird theme continues throughout the bar, with framed pictures of birds throughout and glass bird figures in a case at the entrance to the bar. The drinks are lovely and not too expensive - more your average bar prices - and they do have cocktails on offer for around the 9 euro mark. The Sanctuary Bar attracts hotel patrons and the general public, and is a real hit with families on Sundays. read more

Still my favourite hotel in Dublin 15. Modern rooms for a decent price. To be honest there are not that many hotels around Blanchardstown. This one is located next to the shopping center and a few restaurants. The purple decor is not everyones taste, but it looks nice. Staff is friendly and helpful. It has a gym and a handy shuttle bus to the business park. read more

Clean hotel. I wish they had more suit type of rooms. We are staying here for eight weeks with two small kids and feels like they need more room to bounce off walls. :) unfortunately all bigger rooms are all booked for the length of our stay. And another disappointing thing is that I wish rooms had more storage, like a dresser or something with drawers, for clothes besides the wardrobe by the entry. I have to keep our kids clothes in the suitcase and our clothes is put away here and there. We eat breakfast at the hotel and it's pretty nice. We get buffet and you can have your eggs made to order or get scramble from buffet selection. They also have pancake machine and fresh squeezed orange juice, some fresh fruit for breakfast. Selection is decent. We also went to the restaurant for dinner few times and food was AMAZING! A bit pricey but I say it's worth. ( about €78 for two adults and two kids) Kids can make their own pizza with the help of chef ( 6-7 pm) and stuff from kids menu is delicious, we tried and loved one of our kid's meals. The Sanctuary Bar is pretty nice. I can't say much about their alcohol selection, but we went their for lunch with kids and food was nice, our waitress was very helpful too. The neat feature in this hotel is their two birds ( some kind of small blue parrots) instead of typical fish tanks. I love birds and it's cool hearing chirping while walking through the lobby. There is a good size mall two stories near by, with cafes and lots of ice cream places and lots of shopping ( clothing and food) would be McDonald's, KFC, Burger King (2-d floor) Kay's kitchen is delicious homemade food, coffee and bakery - I recommend. There is also Starbucks (1st floor) !!! Also for whoever travels with kids !!! Mall has movie theater, but we haven't been - kids too small for that. Behind the mall there is Leisure Plex place - it has bowling, arcades, pool tables and a big jungle gym for smaller kids - €5 per child for 1,5 hours. And also there is a public library somewhere there too I've been told, but we haven't actually been. And if you keep walking past McDonald's ( the one that's not in the mall) there is a big children's park and dog park just keep walking past that big grassy field, it's a bit of a walk. There is an area to play ball, area for bikes, scooters, skateboards and a big playground for big and small kids and a sandbox. If you are a jogger that park would be perfect for you! read more

I love this place. Highly recommend it to those who come and visit Ireland/Dublin. It was an awesome choice and I couldn't be happier with my selection. I'm sure there's other places equally or better, but it was a great start to my vacation. read more

This well located Hotel is a magnificent facility. The Crowne Plaza Blanchardstown, Dublin 15 is just off the M50 motorway, and approximately 25 minutes from Dublin Airport . The access into the Town is quiet easy with buses or taxis leaving from the Blanchardstown Shopping Centre. The extraordinary commodity of having all the shops around you is top class, you don't need to drag your shopping while in town you have everything there "from a nail to a needle". This hotel is very elegant and it really makes you feel very comfortable specially with the very good value prices for the Rooms, Restaurant and the Sanctuary bar with a wireless facility. Staff are very helpful and you will be sure that they will provide you a high quality service. The 600 spaces conference or party area is a very fancy lit room which is perfect for presentations, weddings, etc. The Forchetta restaurant prices and quality of food is great, you could get a great pasta or a fresh authentic pizza!! It is Nice to see that you have a lot of choices around The Crowne Plaza, making it the best choice outside Dublin Town. read more

I was just here for work about 3 weeks ago. (10/2012). Missed the Giants in the series. Not the fault of the hotel :) The hotel was nice, the have a nice lobby with plenty of seating to meet people in. The gym was decent, and had towels and a average amount of hotel workout items. The restaurant was good, for both breakfast and dinner. The bar was pretty standard, but has authentic Irish beer/whiskey ready at any time. The staff were super friendly, and always there to help a guide the guests. The other great piece of this is that you are walking distance to a huge mall and other American style restaurants like Mc Donald's, if you need a fix. Rooms were clean, big enough and comfy, no complaints. Just a tip, please note the location of this hotel with respect to the airport, your office, or sites to see. It is a bit out of reach for most. So if you need to work and play in the city center then you may need somewhere else. Good luck everyone! read more

Food is pretty decent, staff is lovely but its location is just too far from the city centre. If you're a tourist and coming to Dublin for a few days you will commute around 1 hour in the bus in order to get in town. read more

Extremely friendly bar staff, very attentive and welcoming. Nice atmosphere and the food is excellent, can't fault it at all, great value for money and not to expensive. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for somewhere to eat a little quieter than the generic restaurants around the centre as the food here is just as good if not nicer than it's surrounding restaurants. read more

Good hotel with some minor issues. The staff are super nice and helpful. We arrived at 11 am and they could not fit us in as they claimed they were full. After an overnight flight from Philly we wanted to rest before we adventured out but we had no choice. Bit disappointed that I was to have gotten a call when the manager promised the next room in line. However we headed into town and didn't get back till 5 pm and we were good. The second issue was they had a Romanian concert till 1 pm and that was loud on our 3rd floor from. Again they tried to move us and by the time they found a room on a higher floor my wife and daughter were jet lagged and half asleep. We chose to stay and it was fine after that night. Had a plumbing issue that they took care and even left us a nice note and some brownies as a good will gesture. Car park in the basement is tight when your rental car decided to upgrade you. Overall a bit out of the city and that was nice. A huge mall is walking distance. Restaurant and bar in the building are ok not great. Hopefully you are in Dublin and staying in your hotel is not a priority. read more

Second stay here in 6 weeks. Very good hotel. Big comfortable rooms. Good breakfast. Restaurant a little expensive compared to normal Irish places to eat. Good food and Guinness in bar. Less expensive there. Staff friendly and welcoming to lone traveller. read more

This is my first stay in Dublin. I have chosen this hotel for business reasons (close to IBM), and for this it was the best choice, I think. From a private perspective, it would have been nicer if it were closer to Dublin's center. However, you will also find a nice pub in Blanchardstown to grab some food in the evenings. The room and bathroom are spacious and nice, no complaints here. Breakfast could be better, it is an average buffet for the hotel's category. read more

The hotel hotel and staff are very friendly. The beds are comfortable but the rooms are small, but adequate since I have been by myself. I have eaten at the bar twice and the food had been very good. (Wings and potato skins one time and shank of lamb another). read more

I stay here regularly when in Ireland on business. the rooms are brilliant, the food excellent and the hotel underground car park is an added bonus, especially in Irish springs!! Included in the room rates are WIFI access, and if you are leaving before 8am often free takeaway coffee in reception to help yourself too read more

I've had the pleasure of coming here the last few years and just wanted to note how lovely the service typically is. Particularly some of the pub and breakfast staff. If you end up here, don't miss a fantastic omelette or egg dish of your choice by Stefan! The rooms also have great sound proofing. I had friends making a ruckus next door and didn't hear a peep. Much gratitude to the staff here. Thank you all for the lovely stays! read more

I stayed there this weekend and was very impressed. The room was spacious but comfortable, the food was excellent and the staff were quite friendly. The only drawback was the location with the €25 cab ride from the airport or city ruling out straying too far from the hotel. read more

Very good quality hotel. Good location for Blanchardstown Centre. As others have said, it's maybe too far out of city to be plactical for tourist. Nice public areas and good-sized rooms. Japanese people are used to hotel rooms with bath. No bath in room, but shower was hot and very powerful! Good choice of breakfast foods. I like very much Irish white pudding! :-) read more

A nice place to wind down after work. Rooms are big, modern and clean. The sanctuary bar has a very relaxed atmosphere, nice seating layout, a piano and a great selection of food and cocktails. It is pricey enough but would recommend to anyone who wants of unwind after a long day at work. read more

Again, one of those typical chain-hotels that have grown anywhere you can put the "near the airport"-sign up. This one has a good bar with some decent food, and sits in the middle of Ireland's biggest shopping centre - so it may come in handy for some retail therapy. But again I cannot reccommend it for first-time visitors for being too far away from the city centre. Expect a 30 min-cab ride or a 45-60 minute journey on the bus. read more

Seriously awesome cheeseburger at the bar. Hit the spot after a long day of endless Guinness while trolling the temple bar district enjoying the chill in the air we seldom get here in AZ. The great thing about Dublin, and this establishment in general, is the way you are treated, as if you are part of the family or a regular. The entire time the barkeep kept conversation up with my entire group, even allowing my wife to teach him the "proper" way to make a Long Island Ice Tea, which happens to be a favorite of dubliners. read more

The Crowne Plaza Hotel Dublin-Blanchardstown is my go to place whenever I visit Dublin for business. The staff is very professional, courteous and helpful. I've stayed at this hotel seven times since 2011, with an average stay of 2-3 weeks. And, I've never been disappointed. The rooms are comfy and clean, there is plenty of free parking, the restaurant and breakfast buffet are great and the Sanctuary Bar is awesome! I would like to give a special thanks to the bar staff in the Sanctuary Bar, Sean C., Karen and Nina. Their professionalism, commitment to excellence and good humor have made my stays memorable throughout the years. read more

"Location + Hospitality = Perfection " I checked into this hotel as a Spire Elite unfortunately we did not receive an upgrade for our stay however I believe the hotel was very busy and Maybe even sold out for some of the nights. The facility itself was well designed and even the standard room was nicely appointed! I had a change in plans and reached out to Magda (the hotel GM) she leaves her business card in the room incase you need to reach out! Excellent! I appreciate a manager who's proactive and available to guests! I asked Magda about extending our stay even though the hotel was full on one of the nights she extended us and also gave us a reasonable discount! I truly appreciate and respect this type of proactive, personal management style! I would highly recommend this hotel for that quality alone but i also should mention is the location of this property is perfectly located across the street from tons of shopping and eating, (please check out my review for Nando's Blanchardstown). In conclusion this Crowne Plaza is Top Shelf quality! Highly recommended! read more

Clean, modern and great rooms! Very impressed and enjoyed staying here! Will definitely be back!

This review is over due. Stayed here a couple of nights and I was very satisfied with my stay. Price, room and the service were all great. They have complimentary parking and wifi for guest. I'd recommend this hotel to anyone traveling to Dublin or nearby areas. read more

EXTREMELY dissatisfied - taking legal action I stayed over with friends in order to attend an event at the hotel. After the event was over, I returned to my room to find an extremely strong, and frankly disgusting, smell of smoke on our floor (I had booked a non-smoking room). I foolishly did not complain about it. Two days after checkout I received a letter in the post informing me I had been fined €200 for smoking in our rooms. What a ridiculous fine! I rang up to try and sort it out and was given zero help. I was informed I had to put my complaint in writing which I duly did and after waiting a week for a response had to follow it up with THREE PHONECALLS just to get someone to reply. The response was as expected - the fine is remaining as there was 'evidence' we smoked (the smell of smoke). Coincidentally several other people on my floor were apparently fined and not one has queried the fine. Imagine that. It's almost as if the smoke came from them and they accept it. I rang the Front of House Manager who was extremely rude to me on the phone. All the points I made were met with 'Yeeeeeeah.....*silence*'. I am absolutely furious about these charges and about the way the staff have treated me since. I refuse to let this lie and as a result I am now taking legal action. Do NOT stay here. read more

I completely agree with WardyWilbury. It is a very lovely hotel, everything Wardy has written is true but be careful : hard to get a hold of managers when you get some issue to sort out, especially when it comes down to money. They would just hide away. Customers don't feel 'kings' and need to fight for their rights in the hotel which is unimpressive at all. read more
