This hotel was AMAZING! It was so quiet, clean, and comfortable and close to everything. Our bags were lost coming into Ireland and we were so lucky that this hotel was so close to shopping.! The staff was exceptionally nice and helpful. As someone who has traveled a lot within Ireland and the UK, I cannot reccommend this place enough. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back!

    Joan and Pat were excellent hosts, welcoming, kind, attentive to every detail. They were the highlight of our trip :-) Breakfast was great, a large choice of sweet and savory food. Beechtree House is a little bit further away from the city centre but easily reachable by bus (C4); it takes about 45 minutes to get to the area of Temple Bar. It's worth noting that Joan and Pat offer a shuttle service to/from the airport (EUR 70 per room both ways) which is much cheaper than a taxi (and much more convenient than using public transport).

    Annesley park homestay - AP is located in a very quiet and beautiful location from which you can reach the city center by public transport or even on foot as we did. The apartment is really nice and tastefully decorated, we appreciated the cleanliness and kindness of the hosting that came to us allowing us to enter before check-in time. We absolutely recommend it! thanks :)

    It is a quaint Cottage in a great location for where I needed to get to. The host is charming and very pleasant to deal with who knows the importance of communicating with guests. Thank you for that. I was working most of the time so only really used the place to sleep but it was a comfortable and "Cosy" stay. There were some really thoughtful touches: a welcome card ( hand written!), tea and coffee, condiments and even a little handy first aid tin - loved that!

    The location of the hostel is nice, around 15 mins walk to the city center. Although the price is super expensive for a hostel, still it can be considered a "cheap" option by Dublin standards. The staff was helpful as well. There is a nice social area on the top floor, with good kitchen and all supplies needed.

    Our room looked over the Liffe and the hostel is in a great location for exploring the city centre. The room was spacious and the beds comfortable. We were in a double room with en suite rather than the dorms. Lift for easy access to upper floors. Staff on desk organised a taxi for us to the airport.

    Great Hostel, very. close to the city center. We stayed in a private room, which is actually quite large for Dublin standards. Essential room, good bed, everything you need since you are in the city center.
