Hotels in Dublin

Voordelen:: Beautiful hotel, exceptional service, great quality of products. I would stay at the marker every time.

Nadelen:: Nothing! Could be a little far from the downtown area but it's clearly specified on all websites. Overall great hotel, worth every cent.

Voordelen:: Location,breakfast,bedroom was nice size

Voordelen:: Staff was helpful and excellent. Rooms were very clean. Accommodations were up to date.

Nadelen:: Triple room was somewhat cramped.

Voordelen:: We loved the room, the views, the quiet, the location. Close to the train station.The bed was so comfy! Also right near the landmark pub Nancy's Hand. The room design is outstanding! The bathroom was huge! We loved it here.

Nadelen:: There had a been some flooding from outside and it went into the hotel lobby on the day we arrived and it smelled horrible it was most likely sewer water. he smell only affected the area by the front door and the smell was gone by the time we left two days later. The hotel had professionals cleaners working on it as fast as possible. We would stay here again. The flooding was not there fault.

Voordelen:: Friendly and accommodating staff. Comfortable room with a very nice view onto the front garden. Breakfast extravaganza. Very convenient to all Dublin attractions. We loved it. Highly recommend.

Voordelen:: Breakfast was great Very clean Beautiful rooms

Nadelen:: The water pressure was really low, everything took several flushes. The surrounding area is great location wise, but at night it seems a bit rough. The hotel is very safe.

Voordelen:: Hotel is an excellent choice when visiting Dublin. It has excellent service, very clean, and good restaurant. Although it is not close to where most of the nightlife is there is an excellent local pub 2 blocks away and it is located on the local Luas light rail line which provides quick access to most of Dublin's tourist attractions.

Nadelen:: Slightly removed from what they call City Center

Voordelen:: By the train station

Nadelen:: There was no plugs for hair tools and phone charging

Voordelen:: The beautiful floors, lovely rooms with tea,hair dryer and iron and ironing board...all welcome when travelling. Our flight left early morning and because we would miss breakfast, they packed us a boxed lunch. We did walk from O'Connell street and it is 20 to 30 minutes....but even with all our luggage it was fun.. A plus is that it is close to Heuston Sation and all excellent bus services. An unexpected treat for us was seeing The Dublin Zoo ( amazing) and The Pheonix Gardens....about 5 minutes away. Carol

Nadelen:: Lighting was bad for putting on makeup

Voordelen:: It's location was a prime factor in our decision. Phoenix Park was very close by, as was Guinness and The Old Jamison Distillery. Right near the train station and tram stop so access the further parts of thecity and country were 5 minutes away. We'd stay there again.

Voordelen:: The breakfast buffet was great with lots of options. The room was large and comfortable.

Nadelen:: The hotel is within walking distance to all of the sights, but is about a 10 minute walk (depending on how fast you walk). We love to walk so the location was fine for us, but it felt far after a night in Temple Bar.

Nadelen:: There was confusion too how many people we had in our party and had to pay an extra 30 euros and it took an extra long time to clear up the confusion after a long day of travel.

Voordelen:: Super comfy bed and amazing bathrooms! Loved everything about this hotel!

Voordelen:: This hotel is Dublin's gem! It's perfectly appointed and well situated within a few minutes (very safe) walk to the attractions, city sights, public transportation, restaurants and tour companies. The entire staff is helpful, knowledgeable and very professional. All their recommendations were spot on. This hotel has my full endorsement.

Voordelen:: extremely friendly staff helpful staff food bar breakfast included

Voordelen:: Staff went out of their way to help and were very friendly and professional. The rooms were luxurious and very well equipped, fantastic value for money. Far enough from the centre of town to enjoy peace and quiet but close enough to walk. When we come back to Dublin we will definitely stay here if it's available.

Nadelen:: Nothing at all to dislike.

Voordelen:: Rooms were some of the nicest at any hotel we stayed in Ireland, restaurant and bar were top notch and the food was great; breakfast was also great. Parking included and very convenient. Business center with 2 computers and free printing. Very nice lounge area.

Nadelen:: Location was out of the way if you want to do sight seeing, but it was close to the airport so perfect for us (we stayed there the last day of our trip). Bit of a wait for the business center computers, some of the other guests were using for non-business purposes - wish there was a sign that had a time limit or something.

Voordelen:: Was attending game at Croke Park stadium so location was excellent for that event. If I wasn't attending the game, the location wasn't good.

Nadelen:: Rate was inflated too much for the game.

Voordelen:: Fine hotel. Free printing was a good perk. Hotel bar and bar food was a decent and tasty value.

Nadelen:: The location is suboptimal. It was not a safe walk from the downtown to the hotel at night or in the early morning. It is needed to take a cab from the hotel to the city center during those hours.

Voordelen:: 1st they are SO ACCOMODATING. Thanks to guest services, concierge DENNIS :-0 and the crew plus the front door attendants, managers, housekeeping are all amazing. Guest Service Rep came to greet us and had the goats milk avail for my daughter. In the USA we can only purchase at select store and did not realize it was more common to have in Dublin. We have made Dublin-the Shelbourne as our #1 headquarters. The quality of our stay, the fact they have vetted services for a nanny, great food, amazing polite service from all departments simply speaks volumes. Mr. Hanley and his staff at this fine establishment continue to amaze me. I really appreciate the peace of mind they bring to me and my little 1 and 2 year old children each visit. We surely feel special and love the amazing spacious rooms. THANK YOU ALL!! See you again next year.

Nadelen:: I have only positive things to communicate. They can keep up the great work. Great food options, great concierge, guest services, housekeeping, food services.....blessings to you all!

Voordelen:: Location is perfect but a bit overpriced for what you get. Room was a nice size and staff was very friendly. I think it is better without kids.

Nadelen:: Overpriced a bit for what you get. Had to call to have room made up after being out from 9:30-3:0 during the day... I guess someone just forgot.

Voordelen:: It was a gorgeous hotel - the breakfast was a bit pricey but it was lovely

Voordelen:: Breakfast was insanely good, the best part of our stay.

Nadelen:: When I arrived at 10AM, there was no room ready (understandable), but when I returned in the afternoon, I was shown to a room with a worker working on scaffolding directly outside my window. The second room was fine, but I was disappointed that the clerk had initially no problem assuming he could leave us in a room where we could all wave to a worker!

Voordelen:: The staff was incredibly accommodating and pleasant.

Voordelen:: Staff were very attentive in all areas reception, restaurant, etc

Voordelen:: Great location, very pleasant staff, spacious room (especially by European standards). Very nice hotel.

Nadelen:: Nitpick: bathroom could have used a little updating.

Voordelen:: The location couldn't be more central. It's luxury accommodation with top class food and service and all the extras you could imagine

Nadelen:: Not enough power points/sockets in the room for a modern tech age. The AC unit had mold on it

Voordelen:: Breakfast was wonderful Staff (especially Tommy on front desk) were very helpful Location

Nadelen:: Handicap room, which was not suited for others with low and very small sink. Shower type assured water to go over the floor.

Voordelen:: concierge recommendations great breakfast

Nadelen:: Very small room with minimal closet space and walking space and a step down to get to the bathroom Had larger room for less money on my 5 previous stays here

Voordelen:: Every one of the staff members was friendly, knowledgable and well groomed as well as articulate. Someone was constantly cleaning painting polishing or vacuuming something.

Nadelen:: One afternoon the do not disturb sign was ignored and the house keeping staff tried to force the door open. Luckily there was a second lock device to prevent that. My wife had just flown in from America and landed at 7am. She went across America and then across the Atlantic, and she was understandably tired. We were trying to rest when we heard the racket at the door, startling both of us. It actually made me pretty angry, since the Do Not Disturb sign was outside. The next day they forgot the bottles of water for my room. The following day they forgot face cloths. The refrigerator was struggling to keep things barely chilled, and because of the proximity to Temple Bar, we had to sleep with the windows closed for the entire weekend. I feel the hotel charged at least 35% more than my room was worth, possibly because it was the weekend of the marathon

Voordelen:: Location

Nadelen:: Rooms - small - sub standard bathrooms

Voordelen:: Uitstekende service Andy hij hotel en restaurant. Kamers zeer schoon en comfortabel

Voordelen:: The location was pretty good. The room was clean.

Nadelen:: The entrance and lobby were dirty and dated. The staff didn't seem to care at all.

Voordelen:: The staff were friendly and most helpful.The hotel was quiet, and it took me just a few minutes to reach a lovely Park, and St Stephen's Green. Also, the food was delicious.

Voordelen:: Great hotel! The staff was very friendly and helpful, polite, and engaging. I particularly liked how they helped direct us around Dublin to the places we wanted to visit. Excellent service!

Nadelen:: Nothing!

Voordelen:: Room very big, clean, quiet. Nice location

Nadelen:: Staff were all very nice, but seemed like they needed training, particularly in the restaurant. Often no one attending the lobby, at check in, or concierge. On check out, no-one asked how was the stay, and not even to-go coffee available (which is almost standard expectation these days, even in lower quality hotels). Tried calling room service & was told they would call me back, after 10 mins I called them back to say don't bother. Breakfast is really expensive, supposed to start at 7am .. I wanted an omlette ... Was told by waitress that I needed "to ask the omlette guy" at the buffet , he didn't show up til 720am. I asked him if I could have toast with the omlette, he said "you need to ask the waitress" ... It was more Fawlty Towers than Four Seasons

Voordelen:: Rooms were huge, staff was totally on point, the indoor pool was an unexpected benefit. Bar is busy most times, it's fun to hang out at the hotel.

Nadelen:: Location isn't ideal for tourists. It's a 30-45 walk from most major destinations, and cabs are pricey. Otherwise, stay was perfect.

Voordelen:: Mooi ingericht nieuw hotel. Aardig personeel.

Nadelen:: Bar ernaast was soms luid.

Voordelen:: Een echte kasteel ervaring met moderne voorzieningen.

Nadelen:: Niet in het juiste maar een prachtige locatie

Voordelen:: Conciërge was zeer behulpzaam Geweldig ontbijt Prachtig hotel Mooi bed

Nadelen:: Het uitzicht vanuit de kamer

Voordelen:: Alles Inrichting, muziek, eten

Nadelen:: Geen klachten

Voordelen:: The room was great, and the service was even better. We loved the breakfast buffet!

Voordelen:: Was one of the best place we stayed on our trip the staff was great and so was the food

Voordelen:: The atmosphere was great. The hotel staff were amazing. Very helpful and let us check in 4 hours early free of charge, which was awesome after a 7 hour flight. They also ran breakfast a little longer just to accommodate us. And then felt bad for cleaning up around us so they gave us breakfast on the house. I have stayed at many hotels(mostly 4 or 5 star) and this was by far the best experience of them all.

Nadelen:: If i have to look for something to complain about. Id say the gym facility, because it didnt have a big range of equipment. But thats just nit picking.

Voordelen:: Gorgeous hotel, great room, very friendly staff. Easy walk to a bus stop to get into downtown Dublin.

Voordelen:: I loved the friendliness of the staff, the excellent food service, the well appointed rooms and the quiet setting.

Voordelen:: What a fantastic hotel. it is truly stunning and has a romantic feel. So much to look at, it has a stylish modern look that works well with the original castle. The furnishings are beautiful and comfortable through out. Take a look on line at the photos and that is exactly what you get. Everything is of a good standard. The food is lovely but breakfast was a pre prepared buffet and not over hot. In that respect quite expensive when not being cooked to order. I would recommend the evening restaurant as the food is of a high standard and the Proseco was one of the nicest I have ever had. However, do keep your wits about you when the bill is presented. Check it carefully as mistakes do happen. The staff are friendly, attentive and work very hard.

Nadelen:: one of my party complained the bed in there room needed upgrading.

Voordelen:: Location location location

Voordelen:: Breakfast was good American style not the typical European with just meat cheese.

Nadelen:: Nothing

Voordelen:: Location was ideal for tourists, gym was adequate and 24 hours, staff was friendly

Nadelen:: Rooms were cramped and needed more cleaning detail attention (slight mold in grout of shower), smaller bedsizes in rooms should be more clearly advertised when booking.

Voordelen:: The atmosphere in the Mint Bar. The layout of the Deluxe Room The MezzanineTerrace area. The concierge team were very informative The check in staff were very efficient and helpful.

Nadelen:: Having to ask for the nibbles at the Mint bar Not much else, the hotel is pretty good which I would expect for the price that you pay to stay here.

Voordelen:: Decor of the hotel, comfortable rooms and extremely comfortable pillows

Nadelen:: Nothing to dislike.

Voordelen:: Cleanliness

Nadelen:: Street noise and sarcastic security staff.

Voordelen:: I was a little hesitant on getting a hotel in Temple Bar - it's a noisy pub crawl neighborhood, but that all went away when I stepped inside. It's on the far end of Temple Bar, near O'Connel Street, but that means it's central to everything. I was able to drop off my luggage early so I could explore Dublin for the day. I also got upgraded from a single room to a double with no extra charge. Room was quiet - during the day you could occasionally here slot machines outside the window, but I can't complain. Never heard the bar crowd. Great facilities, never got to check out the pool or breakfast but I'm sure they're both wonderful. Will definitely stay here again next time I'm in Dublin, for either business or leisure.

Voordelen:: The staff was friendly and had nice scones and tea in the lobby.

Nadelen:: The wake up call was a little late, so set a back up alarm just in case.

Voordelen:: Zeer behulpzaam, vriendelijk en meegaand.

Nadelen:: Sommige kamers waar een beetje moeilijk te vinden.

Voordelen:: Washrooms are nice, beds comfortable, good location with friendly staff.

Nadelen:: No aircondition.

Voordelen:: Good service, great location, nice rooms

Voordelen:: The hotel staff were very friendly. The hotel was very clean and beautiful. Our room was 220, a corner room with lots of natural light. The room was beautiful. The shower was very neat, took a moment to get used to, but very modern.

Voordelen:: The staff was really nice and they mailed me the phone charger I'd forgotten in the room. Appart from that it's a big hotel a bit south of the center, rooms were really nice, breakfast OK.

Nadelen:: You can hear anybody passing in the corridor from the room door closed... From little chit chat during the day to the groups returning from a good night out at night.

Voordelen:: Clean, decent, and within walking distance of several venues. Get the breakfast with your reservation.

Nadelen:: Nothing negative, or constructive to offer.

Voordelen:: Everything was perfect

Nadelen:: Nothing

Nadelen:: Construction work on going close to hotel. Noise day and night

Voordelen:: The location is fab! Rooms are so luxurious! Huge beds! Bathroom was to die for! Couldn't of asked for better and prices so reasonable!

Voordelen:: Food at EAST restaurant .

Nadelen:: Carpet needs to be vacuumed and or replaced in rooms. Well trodden. Some staff at front desk helpful and some not helpful at all and made you feel like you were a bother. Would recommend this hotel. Breakfast in morning overpriced and overrated. Go in the square adjent to get good food and coffee.

Voordelen:: Everything

Nadelen:: Nothing

Voordelen:: Great location. Not right in the middle of everything so it was a quieter area yet easily accessible to most sights. The gym was very good, much better than the average hotel gym. The bed was very comfortable and the room was nice as well.

Nadelen:: The hallway on our floor was a bit stark and the small table in our room showed a good bit of wear.

Voordelen:: Staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was huge, bed comfortable, and the shower never ran out of hot water and had "full" power

Nadelen:: Parking garage is a little far and hard to get to if you have a car. There is no pull up driveway to load your bags and this made it a little bit difficult not knowing this prior to arrival

Voordelen:: Cleanliness location

Nadelen:: Cold breakfast.

Voordelen:: The service at the front desk, restaurant, bar was over the top. It makes a stay that much better when you feel appreciated.

Nadelen:: There was nothing not to like!

Voordelen:: The service was fantastic

Voordelen:: * dicht bij de luchthaven * Vriendelijk, zeer behulpzaam personeel * Gratis airport shuttle bus * Schone, ruime kamer * verrassend en uitstekend diner * Redelijke prijzen

Voordelen:: Beautiful hotel, very comfortable, restaurant looked inviting though I was too late to try it.

Nadelen:: Didn't get a lot of help trying to get myself to the airport in the morning.

Voordelen:: Great loction. It is a airport hotel that is very easily accessible to the city centre. Staff is good

Nadelen:: We did not like that there was hair in the bath tub and all the doors slammed in hallways making it noise at night.

Voordelen:: I was very impressed with the breakfast. It included a variety of hot and cold foods, drinks, and excellent service. Staff is very knowledgeable about the different bus routes and different attractions. Very impressed .

Nadelen:: The bed wasn't as comfortable as I would have liked, but I slept fine.

Voordelen:: Nice airport hotel to stay at night before your flight.

Voordelen:: The staff was very friendly and helpful. The hotel was very pretty inside and very clean. It was a great bargain and close to the airport. Had some shops close by just in case you needed any necessities.

Nadelen:: N/A

Voordelen:: We had an 11 hour flight layover. The hotel was less than 10 mins from the airport. It was clean and comfortable. This is a nice hotel and definitely fit the bill. A great place to stay

Voordelen:: I enjoyed my stay at the Radisson Blu. The staff was courteous and helpful. The hotel itself is beautiful with a nice pub on-site with great food! I highly recommend it!

Voordelen:: Location was really good and the place was very clean. If you wanted to eat meals at the hostel and spend a lot of your time there, it's a nice place for that, although overpriced as far as hostels go (even in Dublin). Definitely a party hostel but I was just surprised at how expensive it is.

Nadelen:: Staff were really unhelpful and made my stay somewhat negative.

Voordelen:: Based on the price point we got it at, it was a great stay. We stayed in a 6 bed unit which was surprisingly comfortable. The hotel bar was good, and great atmosphere while the Eurocup was on. Overall the place was always clean, lots of staff around which was nice. The demographic was crazy... People of all ages which was fantastic! It couldn't be closer to Jameson. Great bars and restaurants around it as well. It's about a 15 minute walk to temple bar area. 10 minute walk to Guinness.

Nadelen:: The bar as good as it is, a bit of a tourist trap... It shouldn't be €5-6 for a pint... The rooms were hot as hell, the window barely opened and only at the end of stay did we find out we could request a fan... Not much else to complain about.

Voordelen:: The hostel was very clean and well kept. Had a bar and cafe which made it much easy to find to find food and drinks. The food was reasonably priced. I don't see why I wouldn't use Generator again whether it was in Dublin or somewhere else.

Voordelen:: I got upgraded to an all female ensuite room, which was fantastic, bright and big. All the bathrooms in the whole building were clean from what I saw, fantastic bar, friendly staff, loved my stay! Each bed came with a huge lockable storage box, if you didn't have your own lock they were 5 euro at reception.

Nadelen:: The regular rooms were very small and cramped and windowless.

Voordelen:: The facilities are modern and relatively clean. Rooms are well maintained and mattresses are pretty comfortable. The bar area is nice and live music is a plus. Building and rooms are also secure. Swipe cards are required to go anywhere and there’s security at the door.

Nadelen:: Upon arrival, the staff was more concerned with being cool than with being courteous. Morning staff was much better. What rubbed me the wrong way about this place is that they fail to provide any kind of secure storage for even the smallest of items. There are lock boxes under the beds, but require you bring your own padlock or pay a ridiculous amount of money to use the luggage storage in the basement. Plan ahead or snuggle your valuables. Also, no outside food is allowed. Strange for a hostel. The reason given is that plenty of food is available on site for purchase. Most things on the menu were expensive for a backpacker. The restaurants and supermarket across the way are the best options. Also, the provided shower gel dispenser is always empty and make sure you double check the toilet paper before you sit down. This place clearly has its eye on being trendy to attract the young, party crowd. It’s nothing similar to what backpackers are used to from every other hostel on the planet and fails to provide the community experience and chance to meet new people that solo travelers look for. Considering the price isn’t even on the lower end, there are better places in Dublin.

Voordelen:: Location and atmosphere were fun.

Nadelen:: I can’t say too much here since it IS a hostel, but the walls and doors are very thin and you can hear the loud, drunk patrons coming in all night. It made for a good daytime nap, but not the best nights sleep.

Voordelen:: Fabulous value for the money. €52 for two people in a spotlessly clean double private room w bathroom. Right in Smithfield steps away from great restaurants, cinema, pubs cafes and live Irish Music. Right above the Jameson Brewery Tasting Rooms. Laundry facilities, on site pub and cafe and luggage storeage. Room and bathroom were spotlessly clean, warm and quiet. Felt very safe also.

Nadelen:: Nothing. It was all good!

Voordelen:: Easy to feel included and apart of something as a solo traveller. The staff and environment in general make the hostel have a home like feel. Convenient plugs and lights with every bed. Good food at breakfast and for lunch/dinner. Close enough to walk to city center, temple bar area etc but far enough that you feel safe because you don't have to deal with drunk strangers, and the loud streets of the city centre.

Nadelen:: Beds were comfortable but creaked. Every time you turned or moved, the whole bed would creak and move. Also it was very hot at night due to having a very small window in the room.

Voordelen:: The staff here is absolutely wonderful and very friendly! You can ask for suggestions on places to go and things see and to do and they give out detailed descriptions on what you should expect to experience at each destination! The Night Staff was equally wonderful! To my surprise the night guards/security we're very friendly and helpful and happy to give good directions to near by places. The bartenders are cheerful, funny and have great suggestions for local restaurants and nightlife activities. The reception team is outstanding! They are warm and welcoming and available 24/7! They can help you with any delemas or concerns may come up during your stay. On my next trip to Dublin I will stay at the generator and the staff has a HUGE part to play in desire to book a room with the generator again!

Nadelen:: The only things that I can complain about is the fact that the laundry room often has a line waiting because the dryers take too long to dry. Just for one load it can take up to two to three hours before your clothes become dry, but even then they may not be dry and this leaves people will still be waiting to take their turn while their clothespecially sit soaking wet. Also the bar could be open later.

Voordelen:: It's a hip place, the rooms are clean, and the staff were externally helpful in helping me track down my wallet that I had left in a taxi.

Nadelen:: Nothing, the place was great. There were some annoying persons staying there, but that's to be expected and it's not the hostel's fault.

Voordelen:: The staff on reception were all very pleasant and extremely helpful.The location was perfect for us, close to the gig venue we were booked for. It was reasonably priced for Dublin (but not cheap), comfortable and clean. Beds and towels were fine.

Nadelen:: The shower room bathroom was overlooked by another building (hotel?) with no curtain on the window. The frosted glass allowed for privacy from the ground floor level but not from the five stories looking down on us. Breakfast choices were pretty limited.

Voordelen:: Kinlay house is located in a great area, near many of Dublin's main sights. I would definitely stay here again. Never felt unsafe or uncomfortable.

Nadelen:: The rooms were a tad cold, as well as the bathroom. The cleanliness of the bathroom was also not the best. Someone had thrown up in the bathroom, and it was left for most of the day.

Voordelen:: Avalon House is full of amenities and friendly travelers - the perfect place to stay in Dublin. Nice, clean facilities with a delicious free breakfast! Play pool with new friends, eat cheap by cooking in the huge kitchen, go on the free walking tours, use the free tablets, sleep in comfortable beds, and be close to all the wonderful sights Dublin has to offer.

Nadelen:: No complaints here - I've already recommended Avalon House to all my friends!

Voordelen:: It was walking distance to Trinity College, Temple Bar and many of the sites in Dublin.

Nadelen:: This place was disgusting! The room was dirty, the bathroom smelled moldy and the carpet was so nasty, we were afraid to walk on it without shoes. Additionally, we almost got stuck in the lift because it was broken, but no one bothered to put up a sign! We were there for 3 days, and it was broken the entire time we stayed there. We never saw any maintenance people even attempting to repair it. This place was not family friendly as indicated!!
