This was by far one of the best stays I have ever had in any Europe vacation. The breakfast was amazing and the service equal. The train stop was less than a block away and we could get to anywhere from there. The staff was extremely helpful and the rooms were very comfortable. If I ever get back to Dublin, I will definitely try to make this our stay.

We had a wonderful experience at Ariel House. It was beautiful, comfortable and quiet. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast and cakes in the drawing room were excellent. Our bathroom had some wear and tear, but I understand that they are in the middle of renovations. So, I'm assuming those things are being addressed, bit by bit. If you want old world charm and a peaceful atmosphere with easy access to Dublin city center, this is a wonderful spot. I would absolutely stay here again.

I wanted to love the property but found it just okay. They never replenished the tea or tea cups in the common room, they didn’t have wine glasses for the limited wine. The room was warm with no way that I could see to adjust the temperature. I asked for towels and no room cleaning and didn’t receive the towels. The breakfast was delicious and the staff working the breakfast were very friendly and professional. It’s walkable to good restaurants, but I think overall it would benefit from better attention to detail.

Well located, few mins walk to Aviva stadium and bus stop nearby to go into the centre. Nicely decorated lounge with complimentary tea, coffee and cake. Breakfast was ok. Very disappointed not to have been told in advance of work taking place in the property. Woken up at 8.30am to loud crashing and drilling sounds right beside our room. Also unable to avail of free hotel parking as those carrying out the work had large vans parked in the car park.

Probably the cutest hotel I’ve ever stayed in. The staff was lovely, as was the room we stayed in. It is on a quiet, more residential street, but quite close to the Dublin Train, and a fairly short walk to city center as well. The breakfast was delicious. I’d love to come back!
