The staff were very helpful and the food was great i had both dinner and breakfast in the hotel. 2 main draw backs (1st) the free wifi does not work in the bedrooms... More

What a quaint hotel. Staff very friendly and food very reasonably priced. On entering th hotel the surrounding decor was very pleasant and quite modern. On being shown to our twin room, we were quite disippointed. The bedroom looked clean and was very comfortable But the smell of damp was unbareable. But then the smell of Lynnx Deodorant made it...

Very clean and friendly hotel. Close to Dublin and Blanchards Town Shopping Centre. Probably a bit too close to the railway line but good accommodation for all that. Friendly bar and good food. Just the place for a short break. Close to railway station and M50. David Friend More

on a recent business trip to Dublin my usual hotel was booked up. I found this hotel using directory inquiries and rang. They had 1 room left so I booked it. I had great difficulty finding this hotel as I kept ending up on the motorway and driving for over an hour for what should have been a 5 min... More

The good: very close to the Dublin orbital motorway, in a secluded area by a canal. Decent bar and restaurant, which seemed crowded with locals (always a good sign). Pleasant decor and friendly staff. Large, clean, well-appointed rooms, with a spacious bathroom attached. However: all the rooms are at basement level. My room was far away from the bar, so... More

I was really looking forward to staying in this hotel as it really looks nice from a distance and i have heard good reviews about the bar and food, but we were very disappointed. The rooms are all downstairs - and the carpets in the hallways were really filthy and there was a strong smell of bleach on the way... More

This has been our second visit to the Twelfth Lock and unfortunately, the experience was not as good as last time, one year ago. But let's start with the positive remarks: We like the location of the hotel right on the Royal Canal, it is so peaceful and idyllic. We like the design that reminds of a boat and we... More
