Europa Hotel

We checked in for 2 nights at noon and the room was 16C and the carpeted floor was ice cold... we turned on the heat and it took 12 hours to warm up even though we set the thermostat to 32C. The bathroom never got close to warm. The hot water side of the tap consistently had a strong air block that shot water everywhere. I spoke to reception and they said they would send maintenance up to check. They sent up the concierge instead who said all the rooms were cool, there was some heat coming out and not to worry about the tap. Useless! I assume, because we stayed for a Friday and Saturday, that maintenance was off or they would have to call and pay for someone else and just couldn’t be bothered. We had a corner room. The insulation in the walls and floor must be nonexistent. Furthermore, the WiFi was extremely slow when we received a signal, which was intermittent. Upon checking out, reception removed the 2 night valet charge of £20/nt. Note: If one ever enters a hotel room that is cold in Ireland, immediately request another room that actually has heat. A cold hotel room has to be the worst first impression and is certainly no way to treat your guests.

Raging party on Saturday Night!

Extremely loud party on top floor. Awful noise. Pounding music. Drunks yelling in hallways late into the night. Have not experienced this party noise/vibe since college dorm days. Awful first night. Next night much quieter, but walls are clearly thin as we could hear next door TV clearly until they turned it off around 11pm. Would not suggest staying here on a weekend if parties scheduled. Bring your ear plugs. Included breakfast was very crowded, but food prepared well. Service staff spread very thin, but nice.

Noise! Party extremely loud on weekend.
