Set in the heart of Dublin, 500 metres from Chester Beatty Library, Thomas Moore Inn offers air-conditioned accommodation with free WiFi and a flat-screen TV. Boasting a bar, the guest house is close to several noted attractions, around 600 metres from The City Hall, 500 metres from Dublin Castle and less than 1 km from St. Stephen's Green. The property is non-smoking and is located 500 metres from St Patrick's Cathedral. My husband and I loved the location, the staff made us very welcome, the owner made us feel even more welcome. The music was great. Glad to have an elevator with our large suitcases and the room was freshly made up for us again the next day. Beautifully appointed and clean. We wish we could’ve stayed longer. It met our needs perfectly.

Housed in an 18th-century property and located beside a 13th century tower house, this historic building offers guests well-appointed guestrooms, many with original period features. Each room has a multi-channel TV, tea/coffee making facilities, complimentary WiFi, modern en-suite facilities and a hairdryer. Very friendly people. We had a nice stay at the Silken Thomas. The rooms were spaceous. We had 2 rooms on the top floor in the Postmasters House. We were travelling with 3 kids and therefore we had 2 rooms. The beds were good, and the rooms were very clean. The kids were very fond of the bunk bed.

Located next to the Aviva Stadium, in the leafy suburbs of Dublin’s Ballsbridge district, this beautiful Victorian house offers stylish bedrooms and a sumptuous breakfast menu.

The Dining Room serves traditional and continental breakfasts, which feature homemade chutneys, banana bread and scones. Afternoon tea can be taken in the elegant Drawing Room. This fine establishment maintains all the charms of a traditional manner house, yet the interiors of the guest rooms are all refurbished, modernized, clean, neat, and beautiful. All the staff members are friendly and helpful. We stayed a total of 4 nights here and enjoyed our stay very much.

This beautiful Victorian Guest House is set in Dublin’s prestigious D4 district. It offers en-suite rooms with free Wi-Fi.

This family-run guest house has rooms with good-quality beds, mattress hygiene care and tea/coffee making facilities. There is also a comfortable sitting room for guests to relax in. Absolutely wonderful place. I had a very rough day of travel and didn't arrive until much later than expected. I was stressed but the gentleman who checked me in was very calming and the vibe of the building was stellar. Felt homey, I wish I stayed longer

Riverbank Arts Centre is 8.5 km from the guest house, while Athy Heritage Centre-Museum is 22 km from the property. Dublin Airport is 59 km away. The room and bathroom were beautifully decorated. The shared lounge is spacious and the kitchen is well equipped. We didn't interact with staff in person but Rachel sent helpful instructions about the property and everything was clear. It is not easy to spot the entrance from the road, so use the Eircode provided.
