Meerblick-Hotels in County Dublin, Irland

Die Angestellten waren alle sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Schöne Bar. Leckeres Essen. Guter Wert. Ausreichend Parkplätze. Bequeme Betten. Das Zimmer hatte einen schönen Blick aufs Meer, um den Sonnenaufgang am Morgen zu sehen.

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!

Ich war kürzlich in diesem Hotel, und ich muss sagen, dass ich mit meiner Erfahrung sehr enttäuscht war. Die elektrische Kessel im Zimmer war, wie in den Bildern gezeigt, schmutzig. Das Hotel ist eine gute Unterkunft, die Sie in der Nähe von Hotels und Hotels beherbergt.

Wir genossen wirklich unseren Aufenthalt und die Lage des Hotels. Ich genossen schneller Zimmerservice und das Essen war hervorragend. Strandanlage war auch sehr angenehm.
