My first impression of the hotel was dark and dingy as I entered the reception, not realising at that point that this was the intended look. The reception staff are very efficient but not overly friendly - I think this is just their way. The room card activates the lift but I wasn't told this and they watched me go... more

My friend and I have just spent 2 nights here at the Arlington and whilst it was very noisy at night, it was a great location and the noise does stop eventually! We had booked a deluxe room on the 4th floor. We got a taxi from the airport which cost us 22 euros and were a little worried when... more

After reading the reviews of the Arlington on this website we did not know what to expect! Once we arrived in the hotel our worries were gone! We were greeted by a lovely young porter named Kan, who informed us that we would not be able to check in until 2pm and offered to store our lugggage. The receptionist, Sabina,... more

The rooms were nice, although when sharing between 3 persons, i guess you could say they were a bit small. Bathroom was a generous size, with plenty of free stuff such as shampoo, conditioner, soap and plenty of towels. Friendly atmosphere, especially in the bar/restaurant.

Our room was on the second floor, two flights up from the ground floor bar, but still we could hear the bar noise clearly. From... more

Stayed at the Arlington for a long weekend in a large group. You have to think of the Arlington as an extremely large pub with a lot of hotel rooms, then you will see that the place is all about. The bar is one of the largest I have ever seen and i don't think it has changed in the... more

Location cannot be matched. Friendly and helpful staff. Clean modern room at a great rate. I will return. more

This hotel was great. The decor in the reception area is quirky. There is a bar attached to the hotel which has live entertainment every night, including Irish bands and dancing. The room itself was clean and tidy and I can not fault it. There were tea and coffee making facilities in the rooms. The bathroom was clean with a... more
