“Great Schoolhouse”

Schoolhouse Hotel

5 of 5 stars
San Mateo, California
Nov 5, 2007
3/3 found this review helpful

We stayed at the Schoolhouse Hotel last week for 2 nights. Our room (331) was upstairs and faced the small yard and a beautiful tree. The furnishings and linens were of high quality and the bed was huge and comfortable. The breakfast was wonderful and served in an old meeting/class room with beautiful details - but all quite simple in the William Morris style. We also had a light meal in the bar the first night we arrived with great red pepper soup and good bangers and mash. The hotel is about 15 minute walk to the downtown action of Dublin; we liked the quieter character of the Schoolhouse Hotel to return to after a busy day.

“Great beds”

Schoolhouse Hotel

4 of 5 stars
Stockport
Nov 4, 2007
3/4 found this review helpful

Stayed in this hotel in order to run the Dublin marathon and the location for the start and finish of the run was great.

The hotel is about a half hour easy stroll to the main centre of Dublin.

The room was good, the bathroom was nicely decorated in an old fashioned style with a high powered flood shower, which was great.
The bed was enormous, comfortable with a nice heavy quilt.

Loads of TV channels including sky sports.

The breakfast variety was good, and I had the full Irish which would have been nicer if the food had been grilled in stead of deep fried.

All the staff were pleasant and the bar was also nice.

“nice place to stay”

Schoolhouse Hotel

4 of 5 stars
Camano Island, Washington
Sep 28, 2007
3/4 found this review helpful

We stayed at the Schoolhouse Hotel for three days. When we unlocked the door to what we thought was our room, we discoverd someone else was already in the room. They quickly rectified the situation and gave us another room.
The breakfast was excellent as well as the dinner we ate on the first night .The front desk people were excellent and answered all our questions promptly and in a totally professional manner.
If you want a top sheet you do need to ask for one and they will take care of it.
They only thing we didn't like was the shower. It was too forceful.

“Not up to 4-star standards”

Schoolhouse Hotel

Sep 13, 2007
2/7 found this review helpful

Not quite sure what everyone else seems to be going on about! It is a very average hotel, and certainly not a decent 4* standard.
My room was very dusty, and the air-conditioning unit did not work. The food was average, although I only had one evening meal and breakfast in the hotel. What was most unsatisfactory about my stay here however was the fact that the shower did not work.....it was almost falling off the wall! As far as I'm concerned, that should not happen in any 4* hotel, and would certainly not encourage me to revisit this place again.....However, I did find the staff to be courteous and helpful.
