The new 4-star Holiday Inn Dublin Airport, achieves something very rare among airport hotels: the staff treat you as if they expect to see you again, and for that very reason, they will see you again. For those of us who are not regular business or leisure travellers, we often get the impression at airport hotels that, as we are just passing through, no great effort is being made to impress us. But The Holiday Inn is no ordinary airport hotel, and is a great addition to the options available for people travelling from around the country who have to overnight in the capital, before flying to their destination. The same applies for those returning on late flights, who prefer the comfort of a relaxing night before facing in to the final leg of their journey home.

The offer of Dinner, Bed, Breakfast and Parking package, costs from €128 per night for two adults sharing.
All rooms are soundproofed and air conditioned for a comfortable stay and all feature comfortable Hypnos mattresses, a smart TV and a dedicated work area with a desk and multiple device connection.
The package includes accommodation in a double room with breakfast in the morning and a 2-course meal in the hotel’s restaurant plus free parking.
The hotel restaurant also provides a superb menu, which allows you to feel your vacation has begun once you settle in to its 1950's Americana styled interior. The food was delicious, and there will be no need in future to look for somewhere to stop on route to the airport. This food is worth waiting for. All day dining is available. For the weary late arrivals, there is a 24 hour Starbucks and snack bar available.

Garret O'Neill, General Manager, Holiday Inn Dublin Airport.
Galway native runs a great show
General Manager, Garret O'Neill is a native of Newcastle in Galway, and has many years experience, initially in the Corrib Great Southern Hotel in his native city, and then The Westwood Hotel, before moving on to The Crowne Plaza Hotel group in Dublin. From Jennifer at reception to Peter in the restaurant, Garret's team make the guest feel that enjoying their stay is the most important item on the agenda. At a time when the hospitality industry is struggling with staffing issues, the team at The Holiday Inn exceed our expectations. Indeed, this hotel would provide a suitable base for those who are not travelling abroad and wish to visit Dublin from the west or the midlands, and would like a convenient location and avoidance of the hassle of city centre traffic.
