We visited on a Sunday in early October 2009, the hours were 9:30 – 5, we spent about 1.5 hours. Admission was €13.5 per person. While planning our trip this was one of the two things my husband mentioned he wanted to see. Yes, it is touristy and folks who are shocked by this must have never taken a brewery... more

Full disclosure -- I do NOT drink Guinness, or beer for that matter. So... I tried to compare this to my trip to the Dom and Moet wineries. And... it fell short. This is a contrived, slick, multi-media tourist trap. What was most annoying to me was all the interactive exhibits. MAYBE if you had earphones you could enjoy it,... more

A bit disappointing. One of the attractions you just have to do in Dublin but there is no tour guide and the exhibits are a bit sparse. It all looks expensively done but given just how famous Guinness advertising is, even this section left me pretty underwelmed. However the rooftop bar is great - terrific views of Dublin while you... more

Took my 5 yo here, and it exceeded both of our expectations. Big investment on part of the owners in the building, and a charming llok at the history of Guinness. Topped off by a pint in the Gravity Bar, which is on top of the building and basicallyhas a 360 degree view of Dublin. Was 15 odd Euro for... more

My husband and I, along with our four children, ages, 8, 6, 4, and 2, visited the Guinness Storehouse in September. We loved it! My three older kids loved the displays and can now tell you the 5 important ingredients to a Guinness beer (barley, hops, yeast, water and, of course...Arthur Guinness!). Even though some may think of it as... more

It's a must see attraction in Dublin given the history of the drink with the city and country. I found it entertaining and informative but was disappointed in the price and the lack of professional tour guides. Overall it is is worth a look if you ever had thought about while drinking 'pint of plain' and you get a pint... more

several floors of display, videos, models, real equipment used in the early days - lots of history, the tour flows easily and goes by quickly (we spent about 3 hours there). it's self-guided, so go at your own pace. there's great food available. the gravity bar at the top of the building is an incredible experience - it was so... more

Very cool! Well worth the money! We are huge Guinness fans so this was an awesome self-guided tour. The old adverts were cool to see as well as how they make Guinness. We met a ton of people from other countries and ended up being in the Gravity Bar longer than it took to do the tour! more

On a recent visit to Dublin, I had the fortune of being in Dublin for the Arthur Guinness toast and Dublin Art and Culture evening the following Friday. On that Friday evening the Storehouse had free admission after 5 PM. I cannot complain about an extremely informative tour over 2 hundred years of history on seven floors culminating with a... more
