What guests think

Ruby Molly Hotel Dublin draws frequent praise for its modern design, clean rooms, and friendly vibe, with a lively bar and walkable, central location that puts many Dublin sights within easy reach while keeping most rooms pleasantly quiet.

Common trade-offs include compact room layouts with glass showers and split duvets, no in-room kettles or fridges, and a self-service check-in that some find confusing. Breakfast and dining draw mixed feedback: many enjoy the quality and coffee, but others find it pricey, limited, or crowded, with evening food mainly pizzas. Several guests noted the immediate area feels industrial or run-down and parking is off-site, though access to transit and attractions is easy. Expect a stylish, social stay with thoughtful touches if you’re comfortable with a lean, minimalist setup.

The hotel was in a great place for exploring Dublin. The staff were delightful and check-in / check out was really easy. I also asked if I could leave my small case in a safe area after checking out, so I could visit a few more sites and collect it again before my evening trip back to the airport. The hotel was spotlessly clean with quirky, comfortable areas on the ground floor to relax. The one missing star was purely because there was no kettle in the room. Each floor has a galley with tea / coffee making facilities (with vending machines on the top floor). The downside is that this was all in packaging with paper cups. I also didn’t feel particularly comfortable pootling along the corridor to make a morning cuppa in my nightwear! An option of requesting a kettle would’ve turned this visit into a full five star review.

Cracking hotel, very quirky with a great vibe about the place. The rooms even come equipped with a marshall amplifier if you are into your guitars and happen to have one with you on your travels 😀 That being said, this by far from a noisy hotel and was easy to get a good night's sleep 😴 The staff were very friendly with a great selection of drinks at the bar, the freshly baked pizzas were a winner too. Also, if you opt to skip a room clean, which was fine by us as we were only there for 2 nights then you get a voucher for a free drink of your choice at the bar 👌 It is situated in a great location with plenty of places to eat and drink near by, also just a short walk away from the Temple bar area which is just across the river. I wohld highly recommend this hotel for your bext stay in Dublin.

Everything about the hotel was great, easy walking distance to Temple bar. Area a bit run down, but caused us no issues. There is no parking at this hotel, nearest is Jervis Shopping centre, with premium daily parking rates, worth paying at the kiosk in the car park, as he asked if we were in a nearby hotel, and gave a bit of discount.

I recommend that if you are not going to allow the rooms to have their own respective irons, the iron on the shared floors should be stronger. It took forever to iron because of the quality.

The arrival was very smooth, we got to the hotel at around 10am which we were worried we would need to keep our bags until 3pm but they tagged them and placed them in a secure room for us to collect later that day. We were offered a drink whilst there if we opted for the bedroom to not be cleaned whilst on our 2 night stay too which I thought was a good idea. The staff were all friendly and helpful, the room and whole hotel was clean. The galleys on each floor were a good idea but unfortunately for us we were on the north side of the building on floor 3 which meant there was a walk to the lift to floor 2 or 4 then a very long walk to the far south of the hotel to get a coffee or iron clothes, would be nice to have a closer one for the north side residents too. Breakfast buffet was nice too, would be nice if it was to start at the same time as mon-Friday still but there was a nice touch for people leaving the hotel before it opened, they had croissants and coffee available at the bar. We would stay again if we were to ever travel there again and may try their other hotels if they’re all like this one. Thank you for a lovely stay

We had to park at the mall. Extremely inconvenient to get there and then have to worry about finding parking and paying an extra fee for it. I'm not a fan of having the frosted glass shower. Fortunately, I was traveling with my husband but even then he was messing with me by opening the curtain mid-shower. How embarrassing.

I highly recommend staying in this fabulous hotel!! Travelling by myself as a woman can be a bit scary but with their security to get to the rooms I felt at ease. The bed was so amazingly comfy and the rain drop shower was divine!! (though it did take me 45 minutes on how to figure the lights, who knew you would need to put a card into the slot!! lol)

We arrived early, the hotel looked after our baggage and then let us check in early. We stayed in the loft room so spent a lot of money. There was a good size balcony. The room was standard size but no dressing gown, no tea or coffee... the duvet was 2 half duvets so really difficult to get confortable. Room had a leak as well which meant maintenance came to fix. I like they offer free drink in exchange for not needing to clean room. Communal areas very nice and comfortable. Breakfast was good with fresh options across a range of foods Its a modern boutique hotel but too expensive for what it offers

We spent two nights at the Ruby Molly and once we got used to the very open shower (lol) we quite enjoyed our small room. It was in a great location that allowed us to walk pretty much anywhere we wanted to go. The property as a while had a great "vibe" and the staff were very friendly. I really enjoyed the complimentary breakfast spread - delish!

The bed making was weird. A base sheet, no flat sheet, and then two duvet type pieces. There was a bottom section and then separate top piece which was bizarre and annoying. One duvet please! Annoying that breakfast was not included, cost more. Hotel was new and stylish. Room was very small.

The staff at the Ruby Molly Hotel Dublin's staff is extremely helpful. We arrived early in the day and although they did not have a room yet available, they provided us with bag storage and food recommendations, as they were in between breakfast and lunch service. Upon returning to the hotel, we were notified that they had an early room available for us and helped us check in. The room was spacious and clean, and breakfast was really good. We had a great stay aside from the 2:30 am fire alarm that woke us on our final night at the hotel.

Bewertung: Ruby Molly Hotel, Dublin Das Ruby Molly Hotel bietet eine tolle Lage für einen Städtetrip. In nur ca. 10 Minuten ist man zu Fuß am Temple Bar District, außerdem gibt es eine sehr gute Anbindung an den öffentlichen Nahverkehr. Die Haltestelle des Dublin Express liegt in direkter Nähe, etwa 5–10 Minuten Fußweg entfernt. Die Ausstattung überzeugt: stabiles WLAN, moderne Fernseher mit Streaming-Möglichkeiten und ein insgesamt sehr ansprechendes, modernes Ambiente. Das Personal ist äußerst freundlich und hilfsbereit. Lediglich die Speisekarte am Abend ist recht klein – im Wesentlichen gibt es Salate und Pizza. Abgesehen davon ist das Hotel aber ein sehr guter Ausgangspunkt für Dublin, mit tollem äußeren Erscheinungsbild und angenehmer Atmosphäre. Fazit: Sehr empfehlenswert – ich komme jederzeit gerne wieder.

This hotel is a quirky, cute little place, walking distance to an adorable shopping and restaurant area. It's a little farther from Grafton Street and the Temple Bar area, but it's an easy Uber or about a 15 to 20 minute walk. The staff of the hotel is wonderful and knowledgeable about the area and eager to help. The bar espresso bar in the lobby surfs excellent drinks, and the lobby itself has multiple sitting and lounging areas and even guitars available. So the vibe there there in the evenings when everyone was coming back from their adventures was really friendly, with groups of travelers playing board games, playing music, or just relaxing with a drink. It gave you a wonderful opportunity to chat with fellow travelers. The rooms were very comfortable and convenient, clean, and quiet. Our first time in Dublin, and we were so pleased with everything about this hotel. Highly recommended!

The Ruby Molly was excellent value for money. It’s slightly off the main tourist area (which we prefer) but still easy walking distance to most attractions. Some great local bars nearby and perfect for airport bus transfers. Staff were all very friendly and helpful and the room was ideal - just watch your shins on the bed frame!
