This Georgian townhouse gave us exactly what we were looking for in our two-night Dublin stay: a quiet yet central location, historic ambience, very good amenities, and excellent breakfast. Our room at the top of the house in the rear (#22) had lovely light, extremely comfortable beds, good reading lamps, and plenty of storage. Although not spacious, it was perfect... More

My husband and I stayed here for two nights over Easter. There is free parking available on site, but you need to notify them in advance. The staff are very friendly and helpful. We had a double room on the top floor. There is no lift, but the staff carried our suitcases up the stairs. It is about a 10... More

From the moment we arrived and were greeted by Sinead until we left three days later we had nothing but friendly and helpful staff taking care of our every need. The breakfast was wonderful and the beds were really comfortable!! My sister is going to Ireland in September and they are staying here because I raved about it so much.... More

Cannot believe some enthusiastic reviews I read here, this place needs complete restoring and change of management. Reception was quite standard, we were offered a tea (common here) then shown the room (1st floor, end of the corridor). Seemed quite big, then we discovered: bathroom was old and rusty in some parts, carpet floor full of mould stains, bed linen... More

A delightful B & B in a great location near St. Stephen's Green. We actually arrived by bus at 6am from the airport. We walked from the airport bus stop in the direction the bus driver told us and voila we arrived, the door was unlocked and a very nice greeter came down the stairs and gave us our key... More

This is a basic bed and breakfast in a great location. The staff are very helpful and the breakfast is very nice and much better than a hotel. The rooms are comfortable and basic. The location is fantastic as you can walk to most places. I would return.

Comfortable and very helpful, with huge breakfast choice. Set in a quiet street near tram to St. Stephen’s Green (one stop) and bus to city centre. However it’s not easy to find the hotel from the airport bus without a good city map.
