If I could give more stars for service and friendliness of staff, I would. This is an excellent location for tourists to Dublin as well. Very walkable to the major attractions such as the Book of Kells, Temple Bar, Grafton Street, and St. Stephen’s Park. There is a tram station just outside as well, so it’s easy access to the public transportation options to get you to the other sites. The building is a lovely historic landmark, with updates and modern convenience. The showers were a delight: great water pressure and plenty hot. The room was a good size, comfortable beds, very clean. It is not a quiet location - but let’s be realistic this is a bustling and vibrant city with a pretty cool nightlife scene. The included breakfast was very tasty, and plenty of variety for a week’s stay. I would absolutely recommend staying here, I felt like royalty.
