Traveler Reviews on County Dublin

Bewley's Hotel Ballsbridge

4 of 5 stars
Horsham, United Kingdom
Nov 20, 2008

Ballsbridge is a very nice area of Dublin, it's quite quiet which was ideal for me as was the location which was close to where I was working. There isn't much to do in the local area but it's not far from Rathmines or the city centre itself. I found the hotel room was a few degress too cool even... more

Clontarf Castle Hotel

4 of 5 stars
Wisconsin
Nov 20, 2008

We stayed for one night on a layover in Dublin. It is very interesting, the lobby, restaurants, and pub are in the old castle part, and the rooms are in a new part. The room is very modern with a very nice bed and comfortable linens. The dinner was good but the breakfast was a bit overpriced for what you... more

Jurys Croke Park Hotel

4 of 5 stars
Co. Sligo, Ireland
Nov 20, 2008

Yes, the hotel itself is great, especially for the price. But the area is not great unless you're up to see a match in Croke Park stadium which is opposite. It's not pretty, it feels dodgy and it's a fair walk into the centre. If it's Dublin city centre you're after then there are much better hotel choices I think,... more

Best Western Academy Plaza Hotel

5 of 5 stars
Co. Sligo, Ireland
Nov 20, 2008

I stay in Dublin a lot on business, usually for one or two nights. I've tried a lot of different hotels and guesthouses at the the budget end (under €100 per night) and this is my current favourite. It's clean, bright, comfortable, friendly and the location is fantastic for the centre of Dublin. Particularly if you like Chinese food because... more

Mulligan's

Nov 20, 2008

Mulligans of Poolbeg St is a Dublin Institution, established in 1782, which for decades, no make that centuries, has been consistently serving the best pints of Guinness in the city. Its a traditional pub which has`nt been "gentrified" in any way & on the whole has`nt had more than a few coats of paint in the time I`ve been sampling... more

Bewleys Hotel Dublin Airport

4 of 5 stars
Donegal, Ireland
Nov 20, 2008

We chose this airport hotel because the shuttle bus runs 24 hours a day and our flight arrived after 11 p.m., when some other hotel shuttle buses stop running. The receptionist checked us in efficiently and courteously. The bedroom and bathroom were both large, comfortable and spotlessly clean. The cooked breakfast cost 12 euro and was all self-service. The quality... more

My room was okay but my colleague's room was above the street where the noise kept him awake until 5am. more

stayDublin Apartments

Nov 19, 2008

We stayed as a mixed group of 5 at the Millennium Tower. We came for a weekend at the rugby, so we did not spend too much time in the apartment. The apartment is well located in the centre of town, and the price was cheap when split between 5. Overall the apartment was basic but clean. Some noise in... more

Westin Dublin

5 of 5 stars
Wilmore, Kentucky
Nov 19, 2008

Location, location, location! This hotel was within walking distance of most tourist sites. Just a short and easy bus ride to those that were not. The staff was always friendly and helpful. The room was nicely decorated and very clean. Overall we had a great experience. more

The Book of Kells

3 of 5 stars
Atlanta, Georgia
Nov 19, 2008

This was part of my tour package. We visited Trinity College on a Sunday afternoon. It unfortunately was very crowded and I wasn't very impressed with the actually viewing of the books. They are a very small glass case, that becomes very crowded and in a very dark room. I was sort of disappointed, however when we entered the Long... more

Old Jameson Distillery

4 of 5 stars
Atlanta, Georgia
Nov 19, 2008

My mom & I headed here after visiting the crypts at St. Michan's Church. We had no problem buying our tickets and even had a coupon from a map we had received from our hop-on-hop-off bus tour. We did however have to wait about 30 minutes for the next tour (they sell out!!!), during that time we went to the... more

St. Michan's Church

5 of 5 stars
Atlanta, Georgia
Nov 19, 2008

I saw this in a few people online of a interesting place to visit. Who can pass up mummies in a crypt in Dublin? Not me! My mom and I went to the church and were greeted by an older couple in the gift shop who were friendly. We toured the inside of the church for a few minutes when... more

Holiday Inn Dublin City Centre

5 of 5 stars
Portsmouth
Nov 19, 2008

I had read all the previous reviews and was very wary of staying here, however I was very pleasantly surprised when we arrived that nothing I have read before for me were true. The area is ok and there is a shop next door which is fine and yes it is between 10-15 minutes to Grafton Street, but the walk... more

Adelphi Guesthouse

Nov 19, 2008

very unkind staff, rooms are ugly and far from being cosy. I stayed many times in 3* B&B in Dublin even on the same street and never met with such an unwillingness to the people who stayed there. Attention! everybody, who need to get an invoice for staying there, prepare for lack of understanding the matter and unwillingness to help... more

shrewsbury england
Nov 19, 2008

We stayed at this hotel for three nights and were very impressed with by the overall standards.The staff were very friendly and helpful,and the rooms very modern and clean. We were attending a concert just across the road at the Museum Of Modern Art,and for this the location was excellent.The hotel is also just across the road from the famous... more

Days Hotel Rathmines

3 of 5 stars
New York, New York
Nov 19, 2008

The other reviews of the Days Hotel Rathmines are pretty harsh. I considered this hotel an upgrade from a hostel, and was pleased with my decision. The rooms do smell a little stale, and the dance club's music can be heard at night, but neither was much of a nuisance. The room was comfortable and clean. The surrounding area (while... more

Cassidys Hotel

Nov 19, 2008

It's a fantastic hotel right in the heart of Dublin on Upper O Connell St. It was ideal for us for Temple Bar, Guinness Museum, walks along the river and shopping. Staff were friendly and efficient and the room was a good size, nice and clean and the bed was very comfy. There's a nice reasonably large bar downstairs and... more

Premier Suites Dublin

Nov 19, 2008

We were organising a birthday trip to Dublin for the matriarch of the family! Leaving kids and husbands behind, the four daughters, mother, father and mother's sister headed for the Premier Suites. We were lucky enough to have a most welcoming and helpful lady on reception when we arrived (Sandra), and, if there was any small gripe with the entire... more

Nov 19, 2008

The apartment was booked for 6 people and we found it to be spacious enough to accomodate 6 easily. Spacious lounge, well equipped kitchen, even a washing machine and dishwasher. The bedrooms were also spacious with comfortable beds and simple but pleasant decor. We found everything to be spotless and well looked after. We have a group holiday every year... more
