    parking availability

    The Old Borough Hotel in Swords offers really clean rooms with ample electrical outlets and USB ports, making it easy to keep all my devices charged. The location shines—it's just a quick taxi ride to the airport in around 7 minutes, and there's plenty of dining options right outside my door. I loved my spacious room with modern decor and a massive flat-screen TV that added to the comfort. parking is a bit of a hassle due to the small lot, and I wish the wifi had been more reliable. it wasn't working during my visit, forcing me to find alternative places to connect. The bar staff seemed overwhelmed and often unavailable when I needed service, leading to some waiting times. I'd say it's a great stop if you're looking for access to local attractions, but consider the parking situation if you're arriving by car.

    The rooms come with spacious layouts and unique decor that give a modern take on historic charm, making for a comfortable place to call home during your stay. There’s convenient access to public transport and various dining options right outside the door, which is excellent after a long day's journey.

    Several guests reported issues with noise levels, particularly from the bar nearby, which affected their sleep. The check-in process is pretty confusing, taking place at the bar rather than a designated area, leading to awkward interactions. Limited parking can be a hassle, forcing some to lug their bags up a flight of stairs with no alternative available, especially for those with mobility concerns. the issue of poor shower pressure and an inconsistent Wi-Fi connection frustrated others, detracting from an otherwise enjoyable stay.

    great location
    easy access
    limited parking
    worn stairway

    The location was a big win, making it super easy to get to Swords Castle and many restaurants! Limited parking was a hassle, and I dragged my bag upstairs – a lift would've been nice. 😅

    rustic stone walls
    clean comfy bed
    high ceilings

    I stayed in a Double Room for 1 night, and it was pretty sweet! The rustic stone walls and high ceilings gave it a cool vibe. Comfy bed, and everything was super clean. Just a heads up, the other room had a skylight which was a neat touch too. No complaints about the comfort here!

    comfortable bed
    excellent staff
    short stay

    great stay but brief

    The bed was the most comfortable I had experienced during my two months of travel. The staff provided excellent service, quickly arranging my taxi for an early flight. I loved the shower, which was easily the best of my trip. The view from my room was beautiful, adding an extra charm to my stay.

    I wished I could have stayed longer.
