The Chancery Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Room was wonderful! The location is really amazing as well - placed down a quiet street near Dublin Castle but an easy walk to the bustling streets of Dublin. We walked everywhere with ease. Convenience store located right on the next corner as well. We were offered free water and extras at the front desk. The hotel bar is also lovely. No complaints whatsoever. I would stay here again in a heartbeat."

Ruby Molly Hotel Dublin by IHG

Tey don't have Guinness which is a bit of a bummer, but they do have Beamish which is a very good second choice lol you won't regret staying here"

Arlington Hotel O'Connell Bridge

"5/5"

Hilton Garden Inn Dublin City Centre

8/10 Good

"Clean and comfortable hotel in a good location. There was some initial confusion over the late check-out time, but this was rectified easily and without any problems. We didn't stay for breakfast as we had an early start, so can't comment on that. The restaurant food, however, was fairly mediocre and quite expensive for what it was. Overall, a pleasant and comfortable stay, but the dining experience could definitely be improved."
