It has a varied transport network right on its doorstep. It is well serviced by major bus routes, rail and DART services and the LUAS. Dublin Airport is easily accessible via air coach. Taxi ranks and coach lay-bys can be found just outside the hotel. Bikes can be rented from numerous stations around the city.
