The hotel is above a very noisy bar. The staff were very kind and saw I was concerned so put us on the top floor but, for the price, it was very disappointing.

Great location but glad we were only there for one night. Nightclub under the hotel, playing heavy rock until 2.30 in the morning and then all the customers from the night club were talking and smoking under the bedroom window long after closing!!!

Hotel is a great base. Easy walking distance to temple bars. Area a bit rough especially the entrance. We had a room at the back of the hotel and didn’t notice much noise from the club and the bars next door. Bed clean and a hot shower is all we needed. The price is expensive for where it’s situated however everywhere in Dublin is expensive. Fresh towels daily / hairdryer and iron in the room/ hand gel and shower gel in the bathroom so cannot really complain.

This is a very old building. Very, very tiny rooms. It's not like what i saw in the pictures. It was close to lots of places. The noise was crazy. You don't get to sleep until the party ends. That would be anywhere from 3:30 am to 3:45 am. Then, 45 minutes later, people started showing up to catch their ride for work. But again, what do you expect when you visit Ireland. It was my very first time visiting there. The staff were fine when you had to deal with them.

First.. stretchy place. Two.. no lift/elevator. Three.. above a bar so it's extremely noisy, I was not able to sleep at all! Constant noise throughout the entire night. Four.. extremely outdated. The amount we paid for this place is ridiculous! Almost $200! No way I would ever stay here. Spend the extra money and stay in the place behind this place called academy plaza. So much better!!! I would never stay in this place alone

Poor Hotel

This hotel is desperately in need of updating. My bedroom was small, not very clean and felt like a relic from the 1970's. The window could open fully, with no security restraint, posing a serious hazard to any guest bringing a young child.

I had two stays at Gate Hotel the first night the room was so hot I had to wet a towel over my legs to get to sleep. I asked not to be put in that room on my return trip but it seems it's a first in first served so I asked for another room. It was a floor up and you could here the garden Bar, but as I grow up opposite a pub this didn't worry me. It was much cooler. Clean room and helpful staff.

The pictures from this site do not match the hotel that we stayed in. The exterior picture is not even close and the room/bathroom do not match, unless there are remodeled rooms. There is not breakfast served on property, they tell you to go to a restaurant around the corner. The staff was nice and it is well located for pick up location for Finn McCools tours (although I don't know if they always pick up at the same location). We were put in a room on the 3rd floor and the "cold" water from the tap was a trickle, but the hot water was HOT. When I shared this with the front desk, I was told that to let the "cold" water run and that would help with the pressure. It was offered for us to changed rooms, but that seemed like too much of a hassle and we felt it was easier to deal with the "cold" water rather than chance something else. Also, the bathroom lighting was horrible with a mini mirror that was not even at a "normal" height, and also the bathroom did not match any of the bathrooms pictured. I hope that this hotel is in the middle of some remodeling because it is in a central location.
