“Fantastic hotel & great value!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 June 2013 via mobile

Staying this weekend in The Beacon to celebrate my wedding anniversary with my hubbie & it's everything we hoped for. Its only a 5 min drive to Dundrum town centre, so whilst there is nothing around the hotel by way of pubs and clubs etc you are only a few mins car journey from them. Arrived to the hotel to... More

“King Deluxe Room - very spacious!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 June 2013

I stayed here in November 2012 with my daughter for a shopping weekend in Dublin. We got a large room, and the bed was very comfortable. The hotel is very funky and modern which is nice in comparison to the standard hotels these days. We ate in MyThai restaurant which was a bit dull (lighting wise) but the food was... More

“Birthday weekend”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 June 2013 via mobile

Stayed here recently while I attended a party nearby. The hotel was in the perfect location and very easy to locate. The decor in the hotel lobby is real trendy with a touch of class. The room I stayed in was gorgeous. Modern spacious rooms but real stylish and cosy. The beds are real comfy and the showers are amazing.... More

“Excellent value for mid week break”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 May 2013 via mobile

Easy, easy, easy! Usually there's a 3pm check in but we checked in at 9am no bother. The 3 course meal included in the mid week deal was brought to the bedroom instead when requested. Service attentive without being in your face. Parking right beside the lift. Late check out, all for €120. Totally Hassle-free.

It is equally disappointing for us to read that you were not happy with your experience at The Beacon. Please accept our sincere apologies that we did not meet your expectations, and your feedback will be discussed across the departments as we obviously let ourselves down in terms of poor service and lack of attention to detail in several areas...

“Not a Preferred Hotel for Business Traveler”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 May 2013

This hotel was a good choice for my business location because it was close and it has an on-site restaraunt. Aside from that, I would not recommend this for a business traveler. The property itself is located adjacent to a hospital and professional services office center and may be the primmary draw for this establishement. The Thai themed restraunt on... More

“Lovely and charming”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 May 2013

Beacon hotel is amazing, it has it's unique feeling. It's very clean and professional. The food is amazing, if you will get to the Beacon, you should try the restaurant what beacon has. Very close to business district and shopping centre - Dundrum. The entertainment was also amazing, lovely place and also very good for business meetings.
