Nice hotel by the water. Spacious room. Walk to town got more dining options. Bar doesn’t open until evening. Drinks available in dining room but it’s noisy & busy.
I’ve stayed quite a few times and love the location, across from the sea and near shops, restaurants, public transport, plus the beautiful grounds of Malahide Castle. Bedrooms peaceful and well equipped.
Only thing I miss are the cooked while you wait breakfasts of pre-Covid days, the buffet is slightly less wonderful.
Very nice hotel however I didn’t find the one lady at the front desk to be very helpful or all that pleasant to be honest. Unfortunate.
Also we were in a room on the first floor that had a lot of noise below it. Clanging around.
The bar area was nice, service was just ok.
Staff was wonderful. Car park right next to Reception. But only dining option at the hotel was in the bar. The food and service were very good. Unfortunately, on the evening we were there, we had a very loud, boisterous group of young folk in the bar. They were in a joyous mood, and we couldn’t hear ourselves think. It was a bad setting for an otherwise nice evening.
We had a very enjoyable 3 night stay in the Grand Hotel. We ate two nights in the bar which was very nice. The only thing I’d mention is how warm the bedrooms were. As there was no climate control or A/c we had to leave our room door open to allow some cooler air in for a lot of the time as did most of the guests on our floor including our friends across the hall.
The bedrooms were however very comfortable in every other way and very clean. I would definitely visit again.

Liked everything about it and were it is situated.Don’t like pre cooked breakfast.Our first morning was just lukewarm and second morning breakfast was even colder,plate was also cold.It was also very expensive at €23 euros,definitely not worth the price. I also had to pay this as extra. I thought when I booked it, it included breakfast but that may not be your fault. I know that the majority of hotels precook their breakfast but some don’t and it makes all the difference.Room was very good and had plenty of space to move about,also very clean.Other than the complaints about breakfast we still enjoyed our stay.
Excellent location but like other older hotels the air flow in certain areas can be limited. this is especially important during the warmer months of summer.
