Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

It was my second time to Dublin and this time for business trip. I choose this place because one of my friends stayed here and recommended that this is one of the most cheapest and best valued place in all over Dublin.

It's true, when I checked in for the first time, I was welcomed very cordially and all the staffs were very friendly. I didn't had very big expectation about the rooms and when I entered in the room i was totally surprised with the decoration and cleanness though the room wasn't big but it was pretty. Room service is fast and the meals are average.

But the most amazing thing was the price which was amazing. I highly recommend for business trip stay.

Lovely single's accommodation. I needed an overnight in Dublin and Marino provided an excellent solution. Beautiful grounds, seclusion and cleanliness of the highest degree. My room was overlooking one of two wonderful courtyards. The bedroom was basic - no frills just a desk and washbasin and storage without ensuite but the bathroom was just down a corridor and had a shower. I loved the old worldy feel of the place and the smell of wood polish. Very restful ambience. It used to be a monastery.
The breakfast was served in a cafe and was more than adequate with a great choice of breakfasts. I met others there because it is small and who friendly and pleasant conversations about the place.
The staff were really pleasant and helpful.
I was upstairs but there was a lift. It was inexpensive for Dublin. Close to the city.

Immerso nel verde e in un quartiere tranquillo (nei dintorni, raggiungibili a piedi, ci sono negozi che vendono prodotti di prime necessità).
Il centro di Dublino è facilmente raggiungibile.
Camere non ampissime ma comode e arredamento abbastanza moderno. Staff cordiale.
Lo consiglio.

Ci sono stata nei giorni del St Patrick's day. Il prezzo era tutto sommato economico soprattutto per il periodo ma non mi aspettavo che fosse così bello! Ero in una residenza universitaria ben pulita e tutte le persone che ho incontrato (staff, studenti, personale vario, professori) erano gentili! È distantino dal centro ma servito ogni 10 minuti da un autobus. Il quartiere è bellissimo e molto irlandese. E l'edificio del Marino centre è un bellissimo castello-universitario. Quando tornerò a Dublino non mi dispiacerebbe tornare proprio qui!

Sono stato 2 volte a Dublino e per 2 volte ho dormito al Marino Conference Center.
La location è veramente bella è immerso in un grandissimo giardino fiorito dove è possibile vedere degli scoiattoli, corvi e piccoli uccellini
C'è anche una parte nuova dov'è possibile mangiare per colazione oppure pranzare.
Nelle vicinanze c'è un supermercato dov'è possibile anche effettuare ricariche , una farmacia, un take away e la fermata per andare in centro è a pochi metri dall'ingresso (linea 123)
Il personale è veramente disponibile e gentilissimo sia alla reception che nei servizi ai piani.
La prima volta che sono arrivato il personale della reception mi ha dato tantissime informazioni utili per i servizi pubblici e uffici pubblici.
La seconda volta che ho soggiornato mi hanno aiutato tantissimo nella prenotazione di giorni aggiuntivi.
Ci sono 2 settori la parte storica e la nuova ala... io sono stato la prima volta nella parte storica dove le camere sono decisamente più grandi e la seconda volta nella parte nuova con camere nuove con una quadratura inferiore.
Ho lavorato in un hotel 4 stelle e posso affermare che anche se il costo è molto contenuto
tutto lo staff per cortesia e gentilezza è veramente pari ad un hotel 5 stelle.
Voglio ringraziare particolarmente Ciaran Fogarty, Claire, Karl e veramente tutti quelli che
lavorano al Marino College.. GRAZIE!

We chose this hotel because it was cheap and relatively close to the airport. We were underwhelmed by the room, which was fairly basic and sparsely furnished. While we were there, there was also some renovation work being carried out, which we were not informed about before our stay, and it did mean that a lie in the next morning was out of the question as we were woken up by drilling at 8am. However, we found the staff extremely friendly, helpful and accommodating, which made for a pleasant stay. The location also was very pleasant (though I would not recommend if it you need something close to town) and we definitely could not fault the price.
