Dublin Testimonials

March 2009
Dear Mr Lawson,

Please be informed that we were very happy with our stay with you in Dublin.23 Dublin Central Apartments  The flat was immaculate, clean and very centrally located.
In particular we liked the fact that we could pay extra to keep the flat until we had to leave on departure day. Early check-out is always a pain, so this was highly appreciated. The staff was very helpful. However, we had some problems with the flushing toilet in one of the bathrooms. Your staff informed us (when we complained) that this was due to the fact that all the flats were ecologically build, and we could not flush as often (?) as normal toilets. This was a bit unpractical.
In summary, we were very happy with the stay and would recommend your to others.

Regards,
Merethe K. Hansen

We had a most enjoyable stay in the 6 Merchant Quary. We found them very easily. The apartment was clean and modern and the staff were very pleasant. Will definitely book through apartments2book again.

Thanks. 23 Dublin Central Apartments The apartment was very clean and well situated. My only complaint was that for a group of 7 of us, we were only given 1 key so it was difficult for people coming and going at different times. There was wiring for intercoms but none installed – you have to get through 2 locked doors before you get to the apartment. Lots of people were in the same position – there were always people locked in the inner courtyard

My recent stay at 2 Riverside Apartments Dublin couldn't been better. The service, location, and facilities were the best and a bargain!! Will definitely return on my next visit to Dublin.

Dear Sir/Madam,
I want to express that I spent a really nice time in the accommodation that I booked through apartments to book. Everything was in a high standard, both the services from 2 Riverside Apartments Dublin and Angine (the person who I attended me when I contacted to apartments2book). Moreover the conditions of the apartment where excellent and very clean. I recommend these companies.
Thank you

Dear Martyn
We recently stayed at the 16 The Dublin Apartment Hotel I have to say that my Husband and I were over the moon when we saw our Apartment. As the Hotel was relatively quiet that week (we went for 3 nights Tues-Fri in October) we were given a free upgrade to a 2 Bedroom Apartment. The apartment was huge, with a Balcony overlooking the River Liffey, large Lounge / Dining Area, Fully Fitted Kitchen with Dishwasher, 2 Double Bedrooms, and we had a Bathroom each, (There was even a ironing room!)
The whole apartment was clean, smart and modern, it was also equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay.
The surrounding area was nice, quite Cosmopolitan and as it was in the financial district quite quiet after 5-6pm in the evening.
However, the early mornings could be noisy with lorries / delivery trucks going to the port along the main road.
The walk into Dublin was a pleasant one, taking about 10 minutes to O'Connell Street, along the edge of the River Bank or on the back street to the Metro Link.
We made good use of the Metro Link during our stay, it saved our legs going to the Jameson Distillery and the Guinness Storehouse.
Your Staff were always efficient and friendly and we are very impressed with the Company and we will definitely use you again, maybe New York next time and I have already been recommending you to friends and family.
Many thanks

Dear Sir,
The apartment at 6 Merchant Quary was fine and each of the receptionists were very pleasant and helpful at all times.
My only disappointment was you advertised the property as being at 6 Merchants Quay and I thought I was going to get an apartment near the river.
We had a walk to find 6 Merchants Quay which is actually a Church.
Look forward to hearing your comments on the matter
Kind Regards

We would certainly use this site again as the accommodation was as described. 5 Budget Studios Dublin.
The house is very unusual to look at but once inside it is spacious. It is owned and run by Shaun. who is very pleasant and lets you come and go as you please. The house was quiet and clean. It was a nice surprise when we were shown to our room to discover that a starter pack of good quality food was in the fridge and shelves to help us get started. The house is a short walk from the local train station which we would recommend to use as you are in a great position for coastal train journeys and they are extremely efficient. So I would recommend this house as a great place for people who do not want the bustle of Dublin in the night so they can have a sound sleep before sightseeing starts again the next day
The website is Very efficient

We had an amazing bank holiday weekend in Dublin and that was partly to the fact of the wonderful apartment that we had,9 Grafton Street  even though we arrived in the early hours of the morning, the staff where still polite, we had no hassle checking in and was in apartment within about 5 minutes of arriving, the apartment was clean and well provide for. I comfortably slept 5 people which was great. It had a fantastic location with just a short walk to Grafton Street and the heart of the life of Dublin. The staff were knowledgeable of the local area and had no problem recommending places to eat and see. I would strongly recommend www.apartments2book.com and would defiantly visit one of their apartments again. I even want them to find one in Poughkeepsie, New York so I can spend 2 weeks there in October.
Thank you to all of their staff for making a pleasurable and wonderful break.

4 Merrion Square Apartments were fantastic and everything we needed. It was VERY clean and a perfect location for our St. Patrick's Day weekend. We had 3 adults staying in the flat and there was more than enough room. I was more than impressed with the amount of hot water and how spotless the bathroom was. Our only complaints (and they are small-) there was no internet access when we were there and the front door slamming as people went in and out in the morning was annoying (we stayed in apartment 1 on the first floor by the door)- otherwise, this was a perfect place to stay. The communication back and forth was painless and helpful, the desk service was great and again, the location was perfect. Walking distance to a Spar and Grafton street- a 20 minute stroll to Temple Bar area kept our taxi costs down.

We liked it.6 Merchant Quary  Good location, reasonably well maintained, friendly, helpful desk people. We especially liked the little washing machine in our rooms. My only complaints were that the TV didn’t work and the washing machine didn’t have instructions.

Martyn,
6 Merchant Quary Overall we had a good experience with the apartment. It was even bigger than we expected, which was a nice surprise. The staff was very courteous, although we were a little disappointed that we couldn't check in even a little early. In fact, we couldn't check in until about 30 minutes after the allotted check-in time. After an overnight flight, my brothers and I were very much looking forward to checking in as early as possible. Lastly, the beds were a little small and uncomfortable, but not too bad. Again, our overall impression was positive and we would certainly consider renting the same place again in the future. Thanks!

We recently stayed at 7 Fleet Street Apartment House apartments in Dublin. The location is excellent, right in the heart of Dublin and within walking distance of most attractions. The apartment it's self was clean and well equipped, but a little run down. A great place for a family stay. Good value for money.
Thanks for a great holiday,

Dear Martyn Lawson,
We had a pleasant stay at  3 Village Quarters Apartments in Dublin especially as the weather for our long weekend was warm with constant sunshine.  The hotel staff were very helpful, the flat was comfortable and clean.  It is well-equipped (including iron/ironing board and hair dryer) except for cooking utensils and dishes - you can make breakfast, sandwiches or a salad but would have difficulty producing a hot meal.  But who wants to cook on holiday, we just ate out! Yours,

We had a wonderful stay in Dublin.19 Living in Dublin The apartment was well equipped clean and the beds were very comfortable. When the water pump went on the blink due to a power surg following a local power interruption, the problem was fixed within the hour.
We would recommend these apartments and the service provided without reservation,

We found the apartment 4 Merrion Square Apartments very clean and tidy, the staff were really polite, friendly and helpful.  We thoroughly enjoyed our stay although it was hard work carrying our cases up the stairs to the top floor.
Thank you for your help in finding this apartment.

Hi
We were in the 3 Village Quarters Apartments when we checked in at the Hotel the staff were very friendly and helpful.  We were taken to the  apartments and shown where everything was and how to work things etc.  The  apartments themselves were lovely we were really pleased, they were also in a nice area with shops and bars nearby. Thanks very much for your service, we had a wonderful time in Dublin and will be going back and I will be recommending the apartments to our family  and friends.

Dear Mr. Lawson,
I am pleased to inform you that we are satisfied in all aspects with the quality of the apartment you reserved for my group at  14 The Dublin Collection  except for the fact that although we clearly stated that we were 4 people the accommodation was for 3 ( a room with one double bed and a small room with a single bed) however when we notified this inconvenience we were quickly delivered a movable bed which was obviously less comfortable that the regular ones.
Best regards

Dear Mr. Lawson,
Everything ok. 3 Village Quarters Apartments Good place, good cleaning service, good staff, good location but for Italian people there is one problem; there isn't big pan for pasta.

Quite a few locks - not all of them were working though!  You have to enter all those digits to get in and out of the apartment block, but in fact, not all the door in the inner courtyard could be locked. So what is the point?
We really enjoyed staying at the   3 Village Quarters Apartments in Dublin, just a few blocks from the centre of town. A convenience store just around the the corner was good for shopping for basics, internet cafe close by too. We found the place clean and well equipped - with the exception of a missing brush or cloth for washing the  dishes. It's difficult to do it with a normal towel! The apartment was oddly shaped but it worked well for us, as the rooms all had doors and made for a quiet bedroom for the kid. We were on the top floor and it also had a huge terrace, but it could use some good scrubbing - then it would be ideal for a stay in the summer. Hotel staff was very efficient, informed and helpful. An overall pleasant stay.

One very minor point which may help future customers, we struggled to find the place initially from the airport - some taxi drivers said there were two addresses or streets with similar names so it may be useful to send an online map if this is possible.
Kind regards

Hi,
I would like to  thank you for organising my long stay at   14 The Dublin Collection apartment in Dublin.  The flat is always very clean and well looked after, and if there are any problems at all they are dealt with in a quick and professional manner.  I will certainly recommend you to colleagues wishing to go the self catering route –much more cosy than a hotel room !

I am writing in response to your inquiry of our stay at 9 Grafton Street. We had an absolutely fabulous time while boarding at your quarters and would highly recommend it to any Dublin visitors.  The staff was incredibly helpful, friendly and went above and beyond their duties to make us feel at home.  The location was perfect, giving us easy access to all our desired destinations.  The apartment was clean, comfortable and included all the necessary amenities.  The only drawback we found was the limited amount of hot water –making the showers unbearably chilly.  Thank you for your hospitality and please pass our thanks on to your staff.
Best regards,

Dear Martyn,
My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our time at the 6 Merchant Quary in Dublin .The reception were spot-on ,helpful and kind. Our 1 slight problem was cooking a rib of beef in the oven on Christmas Day - the oven in the apartment would not heat up over 140 degrees.
I know this is only a small blip on a fabulous week's stay and I would recommend these apartments to anybody in the U.K. - you make quote my
remarks on your web-site as a testament to your service !
Best Regards

We enjoyed our week in Dublin, at the 4 Merrion Square Apartments where we met some Australian friends. Your apartment was satisfactory: Plus points - very central to the city/good cleaning staff/helpful office staff. Minus point - Not enough chairs to entertain our friends.

We enjoyed our stay in Dublin and in the apartment 1 St Stephens Green  - which we found well-equipped and aesthetically quite nice (a rarity). The housekeeper service was in general okay - except for the fact that more toilet paper and more tea and coffee were not provided until, I think, the Friday after our arrival on Monday (we left on Saturday). We left a note about this on Thursday, which was disregarded. The porter service on arrival was excellent and very informative! We shall be pleased to recommend your apartments to friends and colleagues - and shall look forward to returning ourselves when we are in Dublin again.
Kind regards,
Mrs Inger Jensen

We found the  3 Village Quarters Apartments to meet our needs very well. The apartment was clean and decently furnished and we felt quite good about the multiple code system in place to ensure only those who belonged there could access the facility. We liked the location of the apartments, as it was in walking distance of the great majority of the attractions of Dublin. Being just a few blocks off St. Stevens Square always gave us a good point of orientation during our travels. We were also quite pleased with the accommodating staff. They provided good daily cleaning service to the apartment each day, and the staff at the hotel was so good about answering our questions and providing us with helpful information. We were very pleased with our stay in the apartments and would recommend it to friends. One note, however.. it would be helpful to provide a bit more equipment in the kitchen. Although we did not do a lot of  food preparation there, we found it to be lacking in equipment.. simple things like cork screw, a few other cooking utensils. It would also have been helpful to have had just a small amount of dish washing detergent and laundry soap left for us .That is the only suggestion I have for improving the stay!
