“Charming hotel in a great location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 15, 2013

We went to Dublin for a long weekend in November 2012. We loved the location of Butlers Townhouse in Ballsbridge... not only is it an easy walk to the city center it's also in a charming neighborhood. The beds are comfortable and the staff is attentive. We will stay there again on our next trip to Dublin.

“So good we came back!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed March 7, 2013

We stayed in Butlers last March with all our family, we enjoyed it so much we returned.
We love the old charm this Town House has to offer. Great location within walking distance of the city or a short walk to the dart. Staff are really helpful and nothing is too much for them. Breakfast was excellent with a great choice of cooked meals on offer. Room was beautiful and spotless. Love the fact you can get tea and coffee brought to the room free!!
A real bonus with this Hotel is that it has parking.
We will be back.

“Pleasantly Surprised”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed March 4, 2013

Found out about this beautiful town house hotel through a Living Social deal. My hubby and I arrived to stay the night on Friday past and we really were pleasantly surprised. Our bedroom was beautiful, spotless and a comfortable night's sleep was had on a four poster bed, aaah heaven. We had afternoon tea served in the conservatory and the staff were lovely and nothing was too much for them. Breakfast the following morning was ample and a great selection to choose from. I loved this hotel, close enough and within walking distance to the delights Dublin has to offer. We will certainly be back.

“Nice stay, good value in a decent location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed March 2, 2013 via mobile

Stayed one night using a voucher deal purchased last year. First the pros of this charming hotel: service was fantastic. From general advice to delivering items required quickly to the room, I could not fault the politeness and pleasant attitude of all staff. Our room was a good size with decent bathroom, and very quiet. Afternoon tea included in the deal was nice, if not worth the 16 Euro per person you would pay if not included! Location is decent, parking on site and only two minutes' walk from the nearest train station.
Few small niggles however; our lower ground corridor had a bit of an unpleasant, strange, damp-type smell. Our bed was two singles pushed together (pet hate of mine!), and the bedroom carpet was quite stained in places. Breakfast was quite disappointing for those who prefer a continental-style meal. No pastries, croissants etc, and very limited fruit choice. My husband, who places great importance on hotel breakfasts, was slightly bemused by the hotel's take on Eggs Benedict, but found it to be tasty enough.

Overall we got a good deal on this charming hotel, but with a few minor improvements it could be excellent!

“Old World Charm and Delightful Staff”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 1, 2013

We are a mature couple and had the pleasure of staying at Butlers twice in October 2012. The first night was upon arrival by late afternoon ferry from Holyhead and then for three nights prior to departing Ireland a week later. The building and furnishings are delightful and 'Old World Charm' describes it best. The location is excellent close to a DART (Dublin Area Rapid Transport) station and only three short stops to the heart of Dublin (less than ten minutes). All of the staff are warm and friendly and make you feel like you are visiting family. Breakfast is excellent and served in a glassed in conservatory. There are pubs and several restaurants ten to fifteen minutes walk away which is only inconvenient in inclement weather. All in all a delight at very reasonable rates. Don't be daunted by the steps up to the front door, there is a rear entrance at street level.
