Really nice central location for exploring the city. There can be a bit of noise depending on which side of the hotel you're staying at but that's to be expected with this central location in Temple bar but there wasn't too much noise when we were there on a Tuesday night. Staff are really friendly and helpful.

It was special to stay in a hotel where The Messiah was first performed. It is a quiet clean hotel. It can be a little noisy at night on the backside of the hotel when the bar next door closes and they begin moving kegs outside. It usually only lasts about 5 minutes. Overall, we very much enjoyed our stay.

Generally an all round good place to stay. Just off the lively Temple Bar area, the hotel is situated a short walk from some of the main attractions of Dublin's City Centre without being too loud or busy, as it's actually on a quieter side street. Staff were friendly, polite and helpful throughout our stay - not that we needed to have too many interactions with them, but always were greeted with smiles and greetings as we came and went. Biggest complaint would be the heat of the room. It was July, and you can't necessarily expect mid budget Dublin hotels to have air-con, but we struggled at some points with just how hot it got in there. We found a fan on the second day, and this did help however. Breakfast was fine, nothing to write home about. The fry tasted much better than it looked with some really quite nice sausages and hash browns, but the cold meats and (one) cheese was not really a decent option as a continental breakfast, purely packet stuff, which was disappointing. Tea, coffee and juices all available, and all fine. It was clean and comfortable overall, and I would probably have no problem staying there again.

Nice stay in this hotel. Room was clean and plenty of room to relax in. Located a little off the main rea of Dublin City, it was easy to walk pretty much any place you wanted to go. Rooms on the front side have a view of the River Liffey as well. Breakfast was served daily and the entirety of the staff was friendly and accommodating.

Close enough to to walk to Temple Bar area, while being far enough at night to have quiet. Close to Viking Museum.

Great location and comfortable room. I was worried the pub next door would be noisy, but actually it was very quiet. The room was pretty warm, and I expect it would be quite hot in the summer because there's no AC. The staff were great

The staff was excellent. The rooms were comfortable (if a bit warm even with the radiator turned down), and the bathroom/shower were lovely. The area is excellent, close to many many sites, restaurants and pubs. A discount at a nearby parking ramp was a nice plus as well. Overall a very good value in an excellent location in Dublin.
