Ruby Molly Hotel Dublin
Hotel felt very modern and spacious. One of the best standard rooms we’ve visited. Close enough to the main areas but not too close that you were surrounded by bars. Location could feel a little out of the way if you were travelling on your own and there was a bit of building work going on next door ...

Zanzibar Locke
The in room kitchen, microwave, dishwasher, fridge and stove top would have been handy if we stayed longer than one nt. Great location 10 steps from Ha'penny bridge to Temple bar area. Comfortable vibe with bar and barista shop downstairs near lobby. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Staycity Aparthotels, Dublin Castle
Great location. Under 5 minute walk to St Peter’s, Dublin Castle, and Christ Church Cathedral. We had paid for early check in (at 10am) but were able to check in substantially earlier when we got there earlier than we expected. Staff was great, room was nice, would definitely recommend.

The Residence Dublin
It's just a student accommodation thats been opened up for use during the summer. It's a nice area. Felt very safe and has some food and shopping nearby. Probably a 20 minute walk from the station and city centre. The accompdation was nice, modern and comfortable. Not as good as a traditional hotel ...
