King Sitric

Cozy place! Great service! But the food was the real highlight! The sauces, the top-quality fresh seafood, absolutely outstanding! One of the best shrimp dishes I’ve ever had! The oysters were divine and fresh, chilled, and served with a perfect vinaigrette! The gluten-free bread was delicious! Words fall short to express just how incredible the food was! A special thank-you to Chef *Leonardo* who masterfully leads the kitchen and ensures excellence in every dish and the overall experience!

Loved our stay at the King Sitric, location was perfect right at the end of the busier/visited areas so it was quite quiet, great nights sleep with comfy beds, beautiful view outside. Easy check-in, they arranged a taxi to the airport for us which was very helpful as foreigners. Right out the door you can walk down the piers/harbor, right close to shops/restaurants, to the east you've got the cliff paths which were just stunning around Howth. The oysters were some of the best I've ever had, food was really outstanding. Great breakfast. Really enjoyed our stay.

I rarely leave reviews, but I feel compelled to share our experience. I booked this hotel as a special memory for me and my mam, who has terminal cancer. All we wanted was one peaceful, relaxing night away by the sea—to make memories and lift her spirits. Sadly, the experience was the opposite of what we hoped for. From the minute we arrived until around 8 PM that night, there was a busker right outside the hotel playing the same 5 or 6 sad, depressing songs on repeat. The singing was loud and frankly not very good but it deeply affected our stay. We couldn’t sit outside and enjoy the sea view or even open the window in our room on a very hot summer day. Instead of a calming, joyful evening, we were stuck indoors in a stuffy room, with the windows shut, trying to escape the noise. It made my mam even sadder, when the whole purpose of this trip was to cheer her up and give her a peaceful experience by the sea. All our plans for the day and evening were ruined. For a hotel that markets itself as a place for relaxation and sea views, I would’ve expected them to manage the environment around their property better—especially for the prices charged. 260€ I payed for one night. I took many video on my phone of how loud the busking was all day and also how bad the singing was. This was supposed to be a meaningful trip, and unfortunately, it’s now a memory clouded by disappointment.
