아일랜드 더블린 소재 오션뷰 호텔

Staff were all very friendly and helpful. Nice bar. Tasty food. Good value. Plenty of car parking. Comfortable beds. The room had a lovely sea view to see the sun rise in the morning.

I decided to ditch staying in the city centre based on my below par experiences there on my last trip. When looking on Trip.com, Fitzpatrick Castle Hotel in Dalkey was the same price as several dorm rooms in the city centre when I looked. Getting there from Dublin Airport was relatively straightforward. I took and Aircoach from the airport to Dalkey/Ulverton Road and then walked for about 15 minutes. Up to the hotel entrance. The hotel is fairly old fashioned but personally I found it very charming. The staff were well-trained in the art of hospitality, the rooms were clean, locals were in and out of the bar, restaurant and leisure centre. Furthermore, the room was spacious with tea and coffee making facilities. The tv had a nice range of channels and the bathroom had a working shower and an abundance of towels. One thing missing was a toothbrush, toothpaste and shaving kit. I was told that you can get slippers on request as well. Get the breakfast. It’s €16 and it’s a buffet style with a delicious selection of hot and cold food. There’s rashers, sausages, hash browns, pancakes, the works. I wish I could’ve eaten more! I loved that they had a wide range of ages working there as well. One of the staff tripped when she went to ask if everything was ok and she said ‘I’m fine, I’m falling for you!’ It was then that I knew that I was home. The leisure centre is one of the best I’ve come across in a while. I’ve stayed in so many places where it’s literally an empty room with a few bits of old equipment but they had loads of weights, treadmills, bikes, etc. They do classes and physiotherapy as well. The pool and jacuzzi were also excellent. Plenty of ages in both as well but it wasnt overcrowded so you’ll get a few lengths in if you want. Lastly, make sure to go for a walk about Dalkey and the surrounding areas. I spent the morning walking down to the Vico Baths, the Forty Foot (both swimming locations) and passed through Dalkey Village. Plenty of people will be out with their family and friends whether it be for a walk, bike ride, swim or a coffee and a chat. Ditch Dublin City and say yes to Dalkey!

나는 최근에 이 호텔에 머물렀고 내 경험에 매우 실망했다고 말해야 합니다. 사진과 같이 방의 전기 주전자는 역겹게 더러웠습니다. 또한, 우리 패밀리룸에는 끊임없이 불쾌한 하수 냄새가 나서 우리의 체류를 매우 불편하게 만들었습니다. 호텔 경영진이 이러한 문제를 진지하게 받아들이고 신속하게 해결하기를 바랍니다.

우리는 우리의 체류와 호텔의 설정을 정말로 즐겼습니다. 나는 신속한 룸 서비스를 즐겼고 음식은 훌륭했습니다. 해변 위치도 매우 즐거웠습니다.
