Nice enough place, would have booked somewhere else had I know the elevator was broken, after walking around all day you had to hike 3 flights of stairs to reach the 2nd floor. Not something I want to do on vacation. The room was pretty nice, tight quarters, and the lock for the door was interesting. Note that you are done in the temple bar area so lots rowdy drunk people yelling through the street, we had to leave our windows cracked open as it was pretty hot in the room without having the heat on.

The lift was broken and we were on the 4th floor. I had my 90 year old Mother in law with us with no way of getting her up to the room. The staff was not able to give us another room due to the hotel being fully booked. My daughter and son in law also had a room booked. Luckily they were only on the 2nd floor. If it wasn't for that, I don't know what we would have been able to do at that point.

Super convenient location but the lift was out of order so had to lug heavy suitcases up several flights of stairs. While the weather was beautiful it meant that the room was VERY hot and there is no air conditioning. The staff did get us a fan which made sleep possible.

If you want a place to just sleep, with limited facilities but in Temple Bar area, this may suffice. The elevator/lift did not work, and I understand has not worked for several months. The room was pretty small with limited storage. No air conditioning, although an electric floor fan was provided. We could not get regular TV channels to show on the TV in our room. The front desk attempted to help but were unsuccessful. Although they said someone would come to fix it, no one ever did. The reason I am rating average rather than poor is cost. We were attending the Pittsburgh-Minnesota NFL game, and this was the only place in Dublin with available rooms, and cost seemed very reasonable given the demand for hotel rooms in the city.

Room was too tight to even open our 1 suitcase. Shower drain backed up and flooded bathroom. Room was too hot (shocking in December) even with fan going and window cracked open as far as it could go. Elevator broken so we had to carry our heavy suitcase up 3 flights.

Room was cosy but well laid out, providing ample space. The bathroom appeared to be recently refurbished and is well maintained/cleaned. The hotel is in the centre of Temple Bar, but faces the quieter streets. The staff are friendly and helpful. The hotel is now my go-to when I need to travel to Dublin for work.

The location was phenomenal. It was close to tons of popular pubs, sites, restaurants, etc. Our room was small, but not a big issue. The problem was that it was extremely hot and the bed was awful. I could feel every spring in the mattress which made it very uncomfortable and difficult to sleep. The staff provided a fan, which slightly helped to cool the room, but I had trouble sleeping during our entire stay. The elevator being out of order was not a huge issue, even being on the top floor, but I think they should board it up so people stop thinking it’ll be fixed.

As others have mentioned, obviously there was noise given the area, but that should be expected. Lift still out of order, just something to note with luggage!
