Fleet Street Style

What A place! Like seriously. I have been lucky enough to travel to many different places/country's and stay in all sorts of different hotels and apartments, but 'The Fleet Street Hotel' in Dublin, just an hours plane journey away is definitely one of my favourites for sure. Being a lover of all things Fashion, Stylish and Glam as soon as I saw the picture of the bathroom with dressing table and free standing tub I was sold... doesn't take much aye! THEN, I saw the luxurious bedroom with crushed velvet and the most glam headboard you've seen and I had already unpacked my suitcase and placed my bits round the room (In my head of course) before booking.

I definitely recommend paying a bit extra to upgrade to an 'Elegance room' The only thing you will be disappointed with is having to leave this chic hotel when it comes to home time, We even tried to stay another night but unfortunately we could not change our flights, serious boooooooooo, so the closest to an extra night we could get was late check out at 2pm for just 20 Euros, BARGAIN.

Being the perfectionist that I am, I emailed ahead to make sure we could try and secure a room with a free standing tub as It does state not all bathrooms have one, with a very fast response I was advised they would pop it on my reservation notes and try their hardest to secure me one... and boy did they deliver! We even arrived to a bottle of champagne on ice and a personal letter, now that's service right there and made our stay even more special with such personal touches.

The hotel staff can not do enough to help, each and every member of staff we came across were so welcoming and VERY helpful, there is a mini bar in reception which may I add is a very nice touch. After a long day of travelling it was nice to sit and relax with a Baileys on ice in the ever so stylish and colour co-ordinated reception, whilst waiting for our coach to the Punches town Races. There is also FREE WiFi

Location location location, You can not get a better location than this hotel, located in he heart of Dublin city and temple bar, 2 minute walk from The famous Grafton street where you will find shops, bars and restaurants, there is also an airport coach that stops right outside the hotel and Trinity college and the wax work museum are a 30 second walk. Now if your a foodie like Josh and I you'll be even more thrilled that The Fleet Street Hotel is actually partnered with TGI Fridays, At the press of a button you'll be out of the lift and at the entrance ready to be seated and get start the cocktails flowing. Now I know you should really try places you don't have back home, but who can resists their blackened Fajitas and Bubble Gum Daiquiri's?! not us!

I honestly could talk about how amazing this Hotel is all day long, I can not fault it AT ALL, and these days that is a rarity. I defiantly would recommend this hotel 200% to anyone looking at staying in Dublin.
