Hilton Hotel Dublin Airport, Dublin Ireland - Part 5

- Reasonably prized food and beverarges / Quality of food
 
Burnell's Restaurant serves modern European Cuisine with a few Indian dishes, the bar has snacks and sandwiches. A mix of both is available at in room dining.
I realized soon, that at  least for me, it is better to keep to the British fare or pizza. I tried one of the curries and Spaghetti Bolognese, but found them both bland.
My favorite dishes there are the ham sandwich, chicken supreme (also my better halfs) and seabass. EW also loves the peperoni pizza and chicken and cheese or fillet steak. The parfait and ice cream are also very delicious and another favorite dessert is the sticky toffee pudding. Favorite drink for him hot chocolate and babycino. I love the cafe latte and capuccino, but don't drink coffee in the evening, so mostly it's out of the question for me. All coffee products are from Costa.
Breakfast on weekends is served from 06.30 to 11.00 hours. We haven't stayed there during the week, so I don't know, when it stops, but I guess it is earlier, probably around 10.30 hours. Its buffet style and offers a good choice of cereals, cheese, yogurts fruits and vegetables, ham, bacon, fried and scrambled eggs, cold cuts, smoked salmon, pastries and bread, milk, one type of smoothie and juices. Coffee/tea and orange juice are served at the table by the waiter/waitress.
Normally we arrive on Friday evenings and have either dinner at the restaurant or in room. When we have dinner at the restaurant we have either a two course meal each or share a dessert. The cost, depending, what we had, was between ca. 60 Euros/ca. 82 USD and 100 Euros/ca. 137 USD.
In Room dining comes in between ca. 40 Euros/ca. 55 USD and 60 Euros/ca. 82 USD.
 
 
- Location
 
The Hilton is located at the corner of Malahide Road and Northern Cross in the North of Dublin. What makes the location so attractive is the proximity to the airport and the safe neighborhood. Near the hotel is a Chinese Restaurant, a Eurospar and a Tesco, which has open 24 hours a day.
