No EV charging point so likely won’t be back
Hotel was comfortable and in very good location for Bord Gais and Convention Centre . Major gripe was the parking scenario. Was told to park in car park around the corner . At check in wasn’t advised on discount and that I had to register car park online etc . Eventually figured it out . Also no EV charging point in car park so defo won’t be back (this is needed at all hotels in this day and age) . Thought the car park was “punchy” too af €20 a night including hotel discount .
