Kilnaleck Vacation Packages

Waiter Christopher was super helpful with me and my daughter during breakfast/ thank you! The window in my room 2181 was not maintained, couldn’t close fully and was left slightly open which made the nearby seagulls sound like it was inside the room

The rooms were great. Bathroom and shower are top notch. We loved the unique 'feel' as it was not a typical hotel look. Breakfast was very good and again, not the typical offering --> they were aiming higher and nailed it. When we are back in Dublin we'll be staying at the Leinster again

Pleasant apartment , well maintained. Convenient location close to bus to the city Helpful communication from the hosts

The reviews on this have been variable so it’s time to weigh in with my own. Bottom line - if you want a decent stay for a cost-effective price, DO consider this. If you’re looking for the Ritz, it’s probably wrong for you. This is normally student accommodation and so is way better than a hostel while not being a hotel. You get your own, modern, fairly smart room with an en suite shower room and toilet. There’s also a modern shared kitchen/TV area with oven and microwave and washing up facilities just down the corridor. The crockery, kettle etc seemed to have come from Ikea and some were still in their plastic, to give you an idea. The fridge/freezer looked new as far as cleanliness goes. Yes, the shower was a bit slow to drain (design flaw I think), but that’s as bad as it got. Bella on reception was ever-pleasant and helpful and I was able to leave my suitcase for a few hours on the last day. This place is on the edge of the centre, so not a bad location. There are one or two places to eat, plus takeaways and convenience stores in easy walking distance. I personally feel I nailed it with this as a choice for a cheap city break - it met my expectations and did the job very nicely. Recommendation for a good break? Leave your car at home and order yourself a visitor’s Leap Card to get around. Dublin hates cars and has pretty great bus, train and tram (Luas) systems. I didn’t know what I was doing and I didn’t go far wrong.

We were surprised by the check in process. You have to collect your keys quite far from the apartment. So plan for a delay to use transit or a two-way taxi fare. The apartment was dirty. Mould in the closet. The beds were terrible (one like an air mattress & the other was hard as a board). The pillows were so used they were hard packed. The air freshener system is needed because a sewage smell came from one bathroom. The photos used to advertise the unit were not the same as the unit we stayed in. The unit has no views. It was an interior unit that looks only into courtyards. It was dark because it was on the first floor and the perimeter units towered over us. The only sunlight that came in was a reflection off of other apartment windows. The air freshener system malfunctioned & needed repair as it beeped every 10 seconds. The washing machine broke. We tried to spend as little time there as possible. The only thing I can say that is positive is that it’s located on a LUAS line.
