What guests think

Leonardo Hotel Dublin Christchurch draws strong praise for its walkable central location by Christ Church Cathedral, friendly staff, and satisfying breakfast, while many recent reviews also mention ongoing renovations and occasional operational hiccups.

Rooms are generally comfortable and modern, but the lack of air conditioning during refurbishment leaves some spaces warm and opening windows can bring street or bell noise; views vary from the cathedral to service yards. Cleanliness is usually good though a few guests cited dusty carpets, odors, or housekeeping lapses. Expect a convenient base with welcoming service and a busy city-center feel.

Great hotel. Sadly under construction when we arrived. Hotel rooms are great. Service could be better. The bar is small. Not enough space for us to have a drink sadly. Bartender couldn’t make a basic drink. Rooms are cleaned daily. Condiments provided. Sound proof rooms. Save and easy entrance and access. Staff is amazing they’ll help you with all your requests and stay professional.

Wasnt told or pre warned before our trip that the hotel was having major renovations in the lobby area. Was very busy and crowded when we came to check in, this was reflected in the staffs attitude. We were checked in by Eric, he barely said anything to us as he checked us in and was very blunt. He gave no directions were the lifts or what floor our room number was on. Location is okay, close to centre. Busy road outside so hard to cross. Room was okay, but everytime toilet was flushed there was a very bad sewage smell that would make the whole room smell.

Front desk area was under a bit of construction. Regardless, the rest of the facility was perfect! Room was spacious, the bathroom was clean and had ample room to maneuver. The staff were very friendly and personable. Helpful with directions and tips on the surrounding area. Rye breakfast area was convenient and always had plenty of seating. The food was delicious, not just your standard continental breakfast fare. Plenty of choices. The hotel was convenient to what we were interested in. Sites, restaurants, shops and pubs with local music. Darkey Kelly’s was our favorite!

Der Ausblick auf die Christ Church vom Zimmer ist genial. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich aber die Abläufe und Sauberkeit beim Frühstück eine Vollkatastrophe. Gläser und Geschirr nicht richtig sauber. Brotmesser die dem Personal auf dem Boden gefallen sind, wurden kurz an einem Stück Papier abgewischt und dann wurde es wieder verwendet. Tische wurden teilweise nicht abgewischt wenn die Gäste fertig waren oder erst wenn die neuen Gäste bereits ihre Teller hingestellt hatten und dann wurde der Tisch und somit das Essen eingesprüht. Wir konnten während dem Aufenthalt bei jedem Frühstück nur mit dem Kopf schütteln. Die Zimmer wurden leider auch nicht wirklich sauber gemacht. Benutze Gläser wurden nicht ausgetauscht. Die Matratzen waren sehr bequem aber die Bettwäsche schmutzig. Es ist einfach alles sehr in die Jahre gekommen. Sehr schade denn bemüht waren alle und Lage und Ausblick sind wunderbar

Right by Christ church and everything else in downtown Dublin. What was a bit uncomfortable was the beds. They did feel very used and my husband and I had a hard time sleeping on them. Also no fan in the bathroom nor A/C keep that in mind. Last thing was the windows you could crack them but not by much. So a showering, not having a fan in the shower and only being able to crack your room windows it got pretty stuffy in the room.

This hotel is nice and excellently located. It’s a bit older overall: there aren’t enough plugs in the rooms and no USB plugs for phones etc. It’s on a busy and noisy street however. Our room was on the first floor and with the windows open (no AC, FWIW) it was very noisy. We are all decently heavy sleepers including our 5 year old so it was fine but if you are a light sleeper, try to request a room that doesn’t face the street. Location was perfect. We walked to Temple Bar and even were able to walk from the area around Trinity College Dublin to the hotel in about 10-15 mins. There’s a Hop On Hop Off bus stop around the corner. About 10 min walk to the Jameson Distillery too. Price was reasonable relative to the cost of other hotels and AirBnBs.

For a twin room we found it a bit cramped - virtually no space between the beds. A small fridge would have been nice. For the price paid it could have been a bit more contemporary. Communal spaces and lounge were nice and did feel a bit more contemporary than the room.

We had a great stay. Location was perfect and room was clean and comfortable. Only slight complaint was that there was no air conditioning so we had to keep the window open and the sound of the bin lids in the back of the property would often bang loudly from the restaurant staff.

The location is great — walkable to restaurants and major attractions. However, our first room had no air conditioning, and we were told to open the windows, which let in a lot of noise from the street and nearby church. Most of us have allergies, and the poor air circulation made things worse. When we raised the issue, one staff member was unhelpful, but thankfully, the manager Vanessa was very professional and accommodating. She resolved the issue and offered us complimentary breakfast. A rough start, but it ended on a better note.

We stayed at the Leonardo Hotel Dublin Christchurch and really enjoyed the convenience of the location—right across from Christchurch Cathedral and an easy walk to Temple Bar, Dublin Castle, and Trinity College. It made exploring the city so simple. The staff were welcoming and helpful, and the rooms were clean and comfortable. Breakfast offered a good selection and was a nice way to start the day. Overall, this is a solid choice if you want a clean, friendly, and well-located base in Dublin. We’d happily stay here again.

Rude, curt staff. The place was an absolute madhouse and when we could FINALLY check in, we walked to our room and found that at 4pm on an Friday, our doorway was being painted. Not a good situation. There was also an full crew removing and installing wallpaper and we had to dodge ladders and glares. The commercial paint fumes were VERY, VERY BAD. Otherwise, it was meh—only decaf instant coffee in the room, probably because they try to make you buy their expensive restaurant breakfast, and the icing on the cake was the bloody Band-Aid that was stuck to the carpet in our room. To be fair, it was otherwise clean and very convenient, but I should have been informed about the construction and paint, especially considering how expensive this little room was.

The hotel was nice, but basic. We felt safe, and it was within ample walking distance to local shops, the Temple Bar District, and other amenities. The service staff and front desk went above and beyond when I left my headphones in the hotel room and called to see if they were there and could hold them for me until I returned the following week. They not only found my headphones, but saved them in their safe until our departure since we were traveling on the other side of the country. I would recommend based on convenience, cleanliness, and excellent service.

Safe, clean hotel across the street from Christchurch Cathedral. Walkable to St. Patrick’s Cathedral, Guinness Storehouse, Dublin Castle, Temple Bar. St. Mary’s Pro Cathedral is a longer walk. Breakfast Buffet is recommended if offered. The Hotel buffet offers all items found in a traditional “Irish Breakfast” at a better price and location.

Great location and the car park was right next door via a covered walkway. Good room size. The breakfast was dissappointing though, the scrambled egg and fried eggs were bland, overcooked and not sure what had been done to the scrambled eggs - texture was like tofu. Running low on fruit even though we were there at 8.15am. Please label the jams etc so people know what is what.
