We had a wonderful visit to the College Green hotel while in Dublin - we had the opportunity to stay 2 nights at the front end of our trip and for one final night before we left. When we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by Stephen who took our bags and welcomed us to Dublin. We saw him several times throughout our first stay and he always remembered us, offered help and recommendations and made sure we were having a great stay. He was a stand out and we were sad not to see him when we returned later in the week.||Overall, we had a great stay - we always enjoy historical hotels and found this similar to one of our favorites (St. Ermin's in London). Our room was comfortable and well-appointed. Service was excellent and quick. We had drinks a few times at the Mint Bar and my husband loved their old-fashioned. Breakfast was included because of our Marriott status and was a great start to our day. An extensive cold buffet with a great menu of hot items to order.||We did have some issues during check-in on both stays. Our first stay we booked a king deluxe room, which was slightly larger than a standard room - we were placed in the standard room which was still very nice, but not what we had booked. On our second stay, we had a confirmed upgrade to a deluxe suite (using Marriott upgrade certificates). When we checked in, we were told that we were being given a library suite. The two story configuration felt very small and dark - we did not use the upstairs sitting area because it was inconvenient. Disappointed to be moved to a room type we didn't want without being asked.||Overall, we would absolutely stay here again - the hotel was in a great location near the Temple Bar district and was walkable to everywhere we wanted to go.
