Anantara The Marker Dublin - A Leading Hotel of the World
The room was made up twice per day, which is unusual in most places. Many extra touches made this experience great. The service was the best we have had at any hotel in Dublin. The location is slightly less central, but the service and newness made it worth the extra 3 bus stops.
