The Morgan Hotel

The Morgan Hotel

8/10 Good
"Room was clean but very small. Staff were all friendly and helpful. Bar had live music and great vibe. If you’re driving it’s a heavily tourist area so lots of people to dodge! Rooms were surprisingly quiet for being in the center of all the pubs."

The Leinster

The Leinster

10/10 Excellent
"Our experience with The Leinster was flawless from start to finish. From the moment we booked the hotel online, to our check-in, the duration of our stay, to check-out. Everyone is so professional, kind and helpful. We were celebrating 30 year anniversary and my 50th Birthday and were welcomed with postcards in our room to mark the occasion which I felt was a very nice and thoughtful touch. The hotel is beautiful. Such an eccentric yet traditional aesthetic which works very well. Jean George’s at the rooftop was dreamy with the trees inside the restaurant to the views of Dublin along with the delicious food and amazing cocktails. The rooms were on the smaller side but so elegant and trendy. They did an excellent job with the design of the rooms, the hotel in general, truly a first class experience. The aesthetic in general is so inviting. We also visited the Collin’s Club during our stay and the bartenders were great, chatting with us about the different whiskeys and bourbons they offer. There is a DJ there on weekends which we loved. The location is walking distance from Temple Bar area, Trinity College and other landmarks, but far enough not to be in the thick of all the noise and action. To us, the perfect stay. We will definitely be back and choose The Leinster whenever we return. The price point is very reasonable for what you get."

Once you’ve attended a concert at Dublin’s superb O2, there’s no going back to theatre-style venues where the seating is arranged in regular rows.
