This is our third time staying here, and we love that it has a small kitchen, a washer/dryer combo, and AC. There is also a bar and restaurant. The location is convenient to Temple Bar, and public transportation, the staff is always friendly and helpful.

Our 2nd time here because it checks all the boxes…location, location, location. They also have early check in and late check out. It’s an intimate hotel with coffee available early and a restaurant if you want the convenience. But from here there is easy access/short walk to Temple Bar area. Reception calls for your early morning or whenever taxi.there are wonderful restaurants so close by.short walk to Grafton and O’Connell Street. Whenever we are in Dublin we will always stay here.

This hotel is right on the river across from Temple Bar so you can’t beat the location. The room was huge, with a full kitchen, plates, pots, utensils included. We didn’t cook though. The bar and cafe were very nice. We didn’t try the breakfast but it seemed delicious. The gym is very small with no weight machines, just weights, a treadmill, and a bench, but it was very clean and provided towels. The staff was excellent, with a few Spanish speakers which was helpful for me. I would stay here again if in Dublin.
