Having had stayed in other budget B&Bs on Lower Gardner Street, we knew the neighborhood was inexpensive and often noisy. We like the area because of it's location. O'Connell Street; near Abbey, Peacock and Theatres; walking distance to Trinity College and the Temple Bar. But this year we were pleasantly surprised. For three nights at the Glen Guesthouse, we had... more

Myself and my mom stayed here for 2 nights over the bank holiday weekend and we thought it was an absolute disgrace. For the price we paid we were only expecting something very basic but this was really terrible! The twin room was very clean so we had no issues with that but the walls seperating the rooms are literally... more

We arrived by catching bus 748 from the airport, stopped at O'Connell street and it was just a short walk away from there, location wise it was excellent. The train station was also very close for anyone who might be interested in trips outside of the city. Clean towels were provided every morning, we had to ask for the soap... more

My boyfriend and I went to Dublin for a long weekend and were pleased to stay here. It's nothing too fancy, and actually felt a lot like staying at someone's house. The carpet may be faded and the walls could use a new coat of paint, but it's clean, comfortable and friendly. A full Irish breakfast is included with the... more

We chose this hotel based on rate and then location. Rate included a full English breakfast which I'm not a fan of. I'd prefer buffet which they only offered cereals outside the plated food. If you dont know English breakfast is beans, egg (sunnyside up), bacon (not what you see in the US), and some white sausage (again different from... more

We stayed here for one night only and I have to say that I was quite impressed. We were given a double room in the annexe which was modern, clean and comfortable. The room was quiet, the shower warm and powerful and was ideal for a day or two. Lack of storage space might make it a bit on the... more

We arrived in the city early, but went to the hotel, and they were more than happy for us to leave our luggage there while we went for a look around. When we went back at 2, we were booked into room 5. This was at the front of the hotel, right above the front door. On first impression it... more

On arrival we thought that this hotel was in a good location, within reasonable walking distance of main visitor areas of Dublin. The communal areas of the hotel (staircases etc) were shabby and not very clean. The room itself though was clean and there was plenty of tea and coffee. The biggest issue was noise, particularly late at night and... more

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Glen for one night. When we made the booking we requested a room on a lower floor, due to difficulties with stairs. However, on arrival we found we had to climb 4 flights of stairs to get to our room, and when we commented on this to the man at the desk he... more
