We had such a wonderful experience at The Mont during our short stay in Dublin! We arrived early in the morning after a long red eye flight, and were greeted by Caio who was extremely friendly and welcoming. We only were expecting to drop off our bags since it was so early, however to our surprise they had our room ready for us right away!!! We were so happy and grateful—getting to relax and showe...

This is my first time at The Mont and my first time in Dublin. My room was ready before the official check-in time. I had a mini wardrobe crisis upon arrival, and the front office team was incredibly supportive, along with providing all the other help I needed during my stay. Although I didn't use the gym, it is well-equipped and available 24 hours a day. The bar is cozy, and the drinks were wond...

Best hotel ever! The location is so central and you can truly walk to everything in Dublin. The hotel itself is lovely with a massive workout room, the rooms are absolutely perfect and have everything you could need as well as very clean. The staff is so friendly, Diego at the front desk was so helpful and welcoming for my quick trip to Dublin. Overall I cannot recommend enough and will be back. I...

I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about the service at this hotel. My cousin and I flew in from Chicago and stayed for three nights, arriving early after an exhausting journey. The staff graciously allowed us to access our room before check-in so we could rest, which meant more than they know. My cousin is battling cancer, and the care, kindness, and attention we received throughout our ...

Amazing hotel! We had a last minute room change and Neville was so kind and attentive, even giving us Americans lots of water when he saw we were parched lol. Excellent location to lots of restaurants, coffee shops, and public transit. Super comfortable beds and very quiet. The whole team went out of their way to help. Would definitely stay again.

Stayed here for 2 nights before a business trip. The hotel is really lovely and comfortable. It's only real issue is just how small the rooms are with a lack of place to put luggage or even anything in the bathroom. I did expect this as it is more of a boutique hotel, but not quite to that extent. We did love the location, and the service was excellent. Would recommend.
