Wonderful accommodations Easy walking to...

Liked: Great location! A short 2 minute walk to the HOHO bus. Easy walk to Trinity College and Book of Kells.Rooms have comfortable beds and they will bring a sheet if the comforter is too warm. Loved having a fan in the room and windows that opened. Breakfast was filling and dinners were great...they even have live music every night. We even saw an Irish dancer from Riverdance perform.
Disliked: Hotel is built out of 11 separate houses, so it is a little confusing, but fun, to find your room the first time.

Absolutely Fabulous!

Liked: The continental breakfast was the best I have ever had, I didn’t even see a need to go for the full Irish breakfast. The hotel is in a perfect location, the room was lovely, and we were very happy. Maybe our only issue was that we could hear a lot of the movement of people and doors throughout the hotel at night, but that’s expected in an old building. The staff was so helpful and friendly. The food in the pub/restaurant was very yummy; my daughter made us return the second night for dessert!!!

Very good

Liked: Everything was fine. Room was fine. Breakfast was very good, two locations to chose from. Location of the hotel was very good. 5 minute walk from airport buses and 10 minutes from O'Connell Bridge.
Disliked: Walls were very slim. Two out of three nights had difficulty sleeping because of snoring coming from adjacent rooms.
