Crowne Plaza Dublin Blanchardstown by IHG

I stayed at Crowne Plaza Dublin Blanchardstown by IHG for 2 nights on a business trip and had a fantastic experience. The room was spotless, and the staff were all incredibly kind and helpful. The breakfast was absolutely delicious, with a wide variety of options. Huge shoutout to Chef Niro, who always had a warm smile and went out of his way to please guests, and to Irene, who ensured the buffet was always fully stocked and that everyone was well taken care of. The thoughtful details—like the fine chocolates left as a welcome gift in the room—were a lovely touch and made the stay feel extra special. Excellent service, great atmosphere—I'll definitely stay here again!

The location of the hotel was very convenient to Blanchardstown shopping centre and getting to and from the M50. The room was large, modern, clean and comfortable. The little birds in reception were adorable. Lots of variety at breakfast. I especially loved the scramble eggs, bacon and coffee. My 5 year old son was mesmerised by the pancake maker.

Staff was very friendly location is great and the cleaning level of the hotel is high, always greeted with a smile, and free parking is available on site which makes the life way easier.

This hotel was one of few reasonable options for a stay in the Dublin city area. It was a bit far from the city centre, we used the city's taxi app and although it is of course quite expencive, it works very well and the taxi picked us up in just a few minutes. On the other hand this hotel was perfect for us since we rented a car and it has its own garage. It would be even more perfect if we had more time to explore the surrounding countryside since it is very well positioned close to the main traffic ring. The room and service were on a high level, true to the hotel brand reputation. We had a very pleasant stay.

Arrived slightly early for check-in and went to ask if bags could be stored at the reception, to my amazement we were given early check-in. The reception and lobby area for beautiful and for the amount of people in the hotel it's kept immaculately clean. Room was spacious and the shower perfect, can't fault any part of the hotel itself. Felt the cocktails were expensive but the quality met up for that as they were gorgeous, ordered off of room-service menu and food was tasty; worth the price. Overall expensive weekend away but the quality of the hotel, staff and experience is worth it.
