Don't stay in summer!
Uncomfortable due to no air con & window restricted to opening 1inch.
Extremely poor shower going hot/cold with terrible water pressure.
Otherwise, clean, nice food, nice staff but the focus here is on high turnover of tours/visitors from the US/Europe. Not returning guests!

Beautiful Ballsbridge
The Clayton, Ballsbridge was a beautiful hotel. Created from an old Masonic school. There are numerous bars, restaurants and coffee shops in the Ballsbridge area as well as Herbert Park. Convenient to the RDS and Aviva Stadium
The room was really comfortable. We had a lovely breakfast and dinner in the bar. There was a nice vibrant atmosphere in the bar in the evening.
I would highly recommend
