Overall Ratings & Reviews White Sands Hotel

Fantastic stay; the building might look dated but the restaurant, bar, staff, and location were fantastic - Swim in the Irish sea!

Very dated room. Bathroom was stained. Mould on the wall behind the curtains. Windows didn’t close properly. Looks like the property is being renovated, but even the newer areas had water damage on the walls. The staff were pleasant and friendly. Didn’t check out the bar or restaurant but there is a lovely Thai takeaway next door.

Great location if you want beautiful scenery! The hotel has a good bar and restaurant. Good value for money

Nice one night stay at the White Sands, looks a little tired from the outside but rooms and bar area really nice. Unfortunately the welcome was not very warm, we did arrive early so thought we would see if the rooms were ready, but the receptionist looked at us as if we had committed some atrocity. All staff we encountered later were very warm and friendly, but first impressions matter.

Mediocre place. Room needed some updating

Arts were updated, others run down. Mattresses were lumpy and uncomfortable.

Good

All good, hotel right Portmarnock beach. Good service.

Nice quiet location. Not far from shopping or restaurants. Excellent view of the water. Malahide is 5 minutes away by bus.

Beautiful location! Right across the road from the beach. Great walking trails. There is also an attached restaurant so you can get food. This is an older hotel, however it looked to be in good condition. Our room had been redone and was nice but the bed wasn't the greatest mattress. Check In and Out was smooth with a nice friendly woman. I would definitely stay there again because of the beautiful water views/trails.

This hotel is in terrible condition and desperately needs to be renovated. The carpet in our room was disgusting ($200!)

👌

Great location. Wonderful restaurant and bar on site. Modern room. One caveat - bath tub and shower would be difficult to enter and exit for an older person or someone with a disabilty.

Overpriced for what the quality was. Was convenient area for the airport. Rooms were run down and bathroom was not super clean. Had a restaurant but priced for high for what was offered. Plus side was it’s open until the evening which most in the area are not.

It has a great location, friendly staff, and a lovely restaurant.

Older building but very well kept it was clean, staff was very friendly and accommodating allowed us weary travelers an early check in. Also if you’re a cat lover there’s some very friendly cats in the neighborhood:) I really enjoyed my stay here

Perfect location right outside of Dublin no question about it. We’d stay here again. It’s a tad bit on the old-skool side but its kept up. it’s perfect location right across from the sea , 20 minutes from downtown Dublin. Perfect location if you wanna stay in a hotel that’s in a laid-back area take a little trip to the north go visit the castle the harbors the little towns you won’t be disappointed . They have a pub and restaurant on location. The pub is a place that the locals go to to enjoy their evening. The food was top-notch service was top-notch all the employees that we ran into were polite and wonderful. I can’t say enough good things about this hotel.. Down side:the walls between the rooms are a tad bit thin so you can hear your neighbors having a fun adult time when they got back from the pub, kudos to the Mr. The Mrs seemed be be real happy. the king beds are split beds so the crack down the middle could be a tad bit uncomfortable if u roll into it. all in all we very much Enjoy this hotel and would go back again for the price there’s no way we could beat it. I know our neighbors enjoyed themselves as well. Cheers! We’ll see you again.

Great pub with lots of locals and a good pint at a fare price. Food was good for lunch and dinner but the breakfast at $16 euros was just okay. Visit Jordan in the Pub great service. They are renovating the rooms on floor two so if you like to sleep in ask for another floor.

Very pleasant stay. Helpful staff, sea view and great breakfast.

Great service! Nice room, clean
