We toured Dublin Castle earlier this month and found it very enjoyable. The tour covered a large section of the castle and even went underground to view some of the old city wall, corner tower, and moat. This building is rich with history and our guide did a great job bringing it to life. From the state rooms to the... More

Not really worth making the time to see if your time is limited in Dublin. Not really much of a castle, the chapel and the Gardens are nice, but nothing spectacular for the region.

My friends and I searched all over for anything that looked like a castle. We found a small chapel attached to some government buildings. Dont go to this place, find something more relevant and interesting.

Another 'must' for any foreign visitor, although it is also a great place for Irish students to visit and experience part of our Irish History. Check out the lovely ceilings and plasterwork and appreciate the guided tour. A place to be proud of if you are Irish!

Once the seat of British rule, Dublin Castle oozes history. Now used on occasion for state function and EU Presidency, the furniture, carpets etc have to be seen.

Dublin Castle is very beautiful and the tour was interesting. Tour guide was very professional, knowledgeable, full of interesting stories and also funny at moments. I would recommend this tour to everybody visiting Dublin, also the admission price is reasonable, even cheap for what it offers.

We were unable to get a look inside. It looked rather impressive, but not what I expected. Much of it still used today for state business. I wonder how much of the inside is preserved. Only small part resembled what could have been the original design.
