The Grand Canal Hotel is an excellent hotel. The staff members are friendly and courteous. We had scheduled an early checkin-in for 9 a.m. and actually arrived at the hotel at 7:30 a.m. I had let the staff member at the desk know that we arrived and she said that she would let us know as soon as a room was available. The Grand Canal Express is located in the lobby where you can purchase coffees/beverages, pastries and even full breakfasts from their menu. The staff members are friendly and provide great service. We got coffees and the desk staff member came and got us at 8 a.m. to check into our room. How wonderful that was. Early check-in is only 50 euros and well worth it. Walking to where we wanted to go was not an issue so the location was great for us as it is in a quieter location. The room was in excellent condition as well.

I was happily surprised when my hotel room was ready hours in advance, and I was upgraded to a nicer suite! This made my long travel day so much better as I was able to have a nap before exploring Dublin! The front desk attendant was so kind as well. Breakfast was also delicious and filling! Great stay!

Our stay was wonderful. Everyone is so nice. The front desk was helpful in every way-making bed softer, water, holding luggage for us. And the staff in the coffee shop are outstanding. I remember one lady from 9 years ago and she talked with us and was pleasant so nice and professional. Highly recommended!

The hotel room was very clean and comfortable. The staff on reception and in the bar/restaurant were all very helpful. The big plus for us with this hotel was the car parking, which was free, as we'd booked directly with the hotel.

Staff was extremely helpful prior to our arrival in regards to questions. Upon our arrival, Sebastian was very helpful with storing our luggage until check in time and getting us a cab for excursion before check in. He also helped me with the free now app so we could get back! Accommodations, food and bar area were great.

We really enjoyed our stay at Grand Canal Hotel - had a wonderful spacious room with a little balcony. Staff was pleasant and attentive. Only complaint was the pillows which were not very comfortable. The Waterbank restaurant was also excellent. Absolutely recommend!
