You've probably heard that Guinness tastes better in Dublin (fresh from the factory), but what you may not know is that Dublin is a perfect destination for the whole family. No, we're not suggesting you let the kiddies drink a pint. Instead, take them to the Dublin Zoo, to feed the ducks in Stephen's Green or on a picnic in Phoenix Park. Scholars enjoy walking in the literary footsteps of such writers as Yeats and Joyce, while discerning shoppers have their pick of designer boutiques.

Unique Georgian Hotel in the Heart of Dublin! Situated in the heart of Dublin's business district & cultural quarter near Trinity College, this elegant property offers luxury en-suite accommodation in an authentic Georgian townhouse. Rich in character, Trinity Townhouse Hotel is one of the finest examples of Georgian-period accommodation available in the center of Dublin and is comprised of 3 beautifully restored original Georgian houses. The Townhouse is a splendid craft of Georgian elegance and contemporary style & comfort. Perfect for business and leisure travelers alike, Trinity Townhouse has an unrivaled location as Grafton Street, Temple Bar and O'Connell Street are all located within walking distance. Please note that due to being a period property, there is no lift.
A very nice hotel indeed in the Georgian part of town, Its quite quirky inside and dressed accordingly. The staff were great from checking in to checking and out and when I was leaving, I was working down stairs in the lobby and needed the WiFi, the guys servicing the cooling units delayed switching off the WiFi until I had finished - thank you and this coupled with the free cup of coffee was most welcome. The rooms quite elegantly fitted out and the shower excellent and even lots of milk for the coffee. WiFi was a reasonable speed 8 Mbs So after all the good things - no lift, and the breakfast items I had were a little overcooked / dry. Would I stay here again most certainly and probably will next time I am in town

Situated in a quiet residential area, Egans House is an elegant terrace of Edwardian houses. The 23 bedrooms of the guesthouse are en-suite with all modern facilities and much more to cater to all your needs ensuring that your stay has been a comfortable one.
The management at Egans have, despite objections from local residents, sent their guests to park outside peoples homes. It is most unfair to have tourists/guests leave their cars parked outside ones home restricting access. This practice is not welcome in the area.

The Samuel hotel är ett fyrstjärnigt hotell. Rummet jag bokade för mig och min dotter kostade ca 225 euro per natt och vi stannade fyra nätter (lördag-onsdag). Endast EN gång städades rummet - först på tisdagen! Då var det också dåligt städat - ingen hade dammsugit (chipsbitar låg fortfarande på golvet). Det här drar ner på omdömet rejält. Vi hade varit ute hela dagen både på söndagen och på måndagen, och ändå hade ingen kommit för att städa rummet. Vi använde samma handdukar i tre dagar...så ska det inte vara på ett fyrstjärnigt hotell. Rummet i sig var trevligt inrett och sängarna sköna, men det fanns ingen av den extra lyx som man förväntar sig av ett fyrstjärnigt hotell - det fanns inga badprodukter i badrummet (väggfast tvål fanns i duschen) och inget kylskåp/minibar. Endast vattenkokare och te/snabbkaffe. Det var också svårt att hitta information om t.ex. när frukosten skulle serveras - till slut hittade vi en liten qr-kod på väggen som gav oss information om hotellet. Inget om detta sades i receptionen. Frukosten var god med även lokala produkter, pluspoäng för det. Vi åt också en kväll på hotellrestaurangen och maten var god, om än rätt så dyr. I övrigt var hotellet väldigt lyhört - man hörde (vaknade av) hur grannarna bråkade om natten. I bottenvåningen skulle det också finnas en snackbar, den fanns inte, endast en tom disk fanns där. Möjligtvis har coronan påverkat servicen på hotellet? Då borde priset justeras därefter. Hotellet ligger precis intill röda linjen (spårvagnen) så det är väldigt enkelt att ta sig in till centrum. Jag ger tre poäng för detta hotell eftersom sängarna var sköna och frukosten god, men egentligen borde det få två poäng för dålig service i förhållande till ett alldeles för högt pris.

76 Pembroke Road, Ballsbridge, Dublin 4 A unique Boutique Guest House in the heart of Dublin 4. Exquisite accommodation with style and personality that will make for a remarkable city stay in an unrivalled location. Pembroke Hall is a stunning mid-terraced four storey listed Georgian townhouse providing its guests with 12 superb high quality ensuite double bedrooms in the heart of the wonderful and leafy quiet residential area, Ballsbridge in Dublin 4. Pembroke Hall has been meticulously and beautifully restored to retain its many Georgian features, each room fitted to exacting standards incorporating all modern amenities. The emphasis is on comfort and luxury to ensure that guests get what is often that elusive "good night’s sleep" when travelling. Pembroke Hall is within walking distance of Dublin City's central shopping and business districts.
The neighbourhood is of prestige town houses and embassies; the air coach (or local bus) to the airport is very close. Baggot Street has cafes, restaurants and bars - 5 minute walk. City Centre - 15-20 minute walk or by bus. The guest house itself is in a renovated grand terrace house and stylishly done. Stairs to the front door are many and not too steep. Inside, the stairs are again gentle but many to the upper floors. There is no dining, no breakfast but rooms have kettles, coffee machines and the usual pods. OK so far. The room we were in was at the top- whew, hard work with cases. Spacious enough but clearly designed for the business person staying a day or two. This is not for the week long stay. Limited hanging and storage space and the bathroom, as ever carved out of the room, has no shelves for toiletries. Functional but cleverly done. No complaints as long as you realise this is for the short stay. All comms ae are arms length until we realised the guy at the table in the morning was the owner/mamger. Very friendly and helpful. Final niggle - mea culpa, we left a charger plugged in when we left. We contacted the Pembroke Hall. Zero response days later..... Hmmm. Very disappointing.

Kilronan House Bed and Breakfast is in the beautiful quite Georgian quarter of Dublin city centre just one minute from St. Stephens Green and downtown Grafton Street area. Built in 1834, the guesthouse is comfortable period house that still features its original cornicing, Waterford Crystal chandeliers and ceiling roses. The staff at Kilronan House pride themselves in spoiling their guests with true Irish hospitality and excellent customer service. The National Concert Hall and Dublin's main cultural and historic sights including Trinity College, The National Museum and National Gallery are within a short walk.
Sometimes you just feel like you hit the B&B jackpot and that's the feeling Romy and Gabriel gave me throughout our two night stay. From the minute I walked in the door until the moment I left, I was pinching myself. Romy's greeting was so warm and friendly, my room was spotlessly clean and I would cheerfully have purchased a ten pound bag of the homemade granola served at breakfast if it was for sale and I wasn't flying home on Ryanair. Gabriel lit a lovely fire in the sitting room in the evening and surprised us with delicious, complimentary Irish coffees! Hospitality doesn't get much better. Thank you very much Romy and Gabriel for making our stay at Kilronan House such a pleasure. Kathy

I would highly recommend the breakfasts continental as well as cooked nothing to much trouble . 5 minute walk to some local pubs and few shops,10,15 min walk to centre through a beautiful park called st Stephens.A further walk around half hour is Temple bar which is well worth a walk or a taxi ride for the music in the local pubs and the atmosphere. We had the most fabulous time in Dublin it is a bit pricey but so worth it

Good cooked breakfast(payable) or there is an ok spread of cold continental breakfast. Offers decaf herbal tea. Room is fine by European standards. If you r American you might find it a bit tired looking and small. And its not the power shower Americans are used to. Bed , sheets, pillows all comfortable. Couldnt hear noise from other residents at all, unlike modern hotels. No elevator and we were on the 4th floor. Close to plenty of restaurants , supermarket, etc as location is more important and walking distance into town(if you r generally a good walker)

We had a great stay and it was clever to be sent the front entrance codes and hotel rooms so you don't have to carry round a key/key card. And only about a 20-min walk to the city centre with some nice pubs and restaurants nearby. One minor criticism is that we didn't see any staff when we were there but thankfully we didn't need them during our stay.

We booked for a prolonged weekend and paid some serious money. Our room did only remotely resemble any of the pictures and by no means was a three star accommodation. We hoped for a cute oldish hotel but just got a dated mediocre styled hotel room. Firstly a lot of the furniture was IKEA, the window had a big crack, the staff was rather unmotivated and changed every couple of hours (seriously I did not see a single person for a second time). Everything felt dated and as said for me there was no value for money. Bathroom tiny with cold is water not even well laid out (where in the shower do you put your shower gel?). Next we arrived only one pair of towels in the room and was not solved after asking. Btw. Those stairs are death traps… fully covered in thick carpet. Sorry but next time will be a different hotel. Good stuff: if you get it for cheap decent location well sized room, decent Chinese and breakfast restaurants around.

If you enjoy Georgian architecture stay here! Everywhere beautiful towhouses! It's a short walk to Merrion Square, Kildare Street and other parts of historic Dublin. The price was surprisingly low: about 65 euro for central Dublin. The room was HUGE with high ceiling and large window looking out onto the street. You could pretend you were well to do living in eighteenth century Dublin. They don't do breakfast at the moment due to Covid as their dining room is small. There is a café which opens very early literally over the road or you can go to their sister hotel around the corner in Bagott Street. Super modern shower, free shampoo and body wash, lots of fluffy white towels. Kettle and tea - only instant coffee but some decaff thoughtfully added. Big bed beautifully tucked in. I slept fine even with the inevitable sirens and early morning bin collections of tge city centre. Wifi password given to you on check in. Worked seamlessly. I think this is very good value just be prepared to get your own breakfast and don't travel by car. Highly recommended.
