$140-260/ Nacht
Buchen Sie dieses Hotel, wenn You want a modern, self-sufficient base in Dublin's center with a kitchen, and you don't mind skipping daily housekeeping.
Warum Gäste es lieben
- Incredible location steps from Trinity College and Pearse Station
- Bread 41, Dublin's most legendary bakery, is practically next door
- Kitchenettes in every room make it easy to save money on meals
Kurzfassung: It's a high-end dorm for grown-ups: stylish and functional, but you're taking out your own trash and listening to the DART train rumble by.
Bewertet von @_experienceaddict_: I found the perfect hack for visiting Dublin on a budget without sacrificing comfort. My room had a full kitchenette and the comfiest bed. Being just a short walk from Temple Bar made exploring so easy. Highly recommend for savvy travelers!
Was Gäste, die hier übernachtet haben, sagten
Reality check
The 'soundproof' windows struggle against the train line, and the 'fishy' smell in hallways has been flagged in multiple recent reviews.
- You prefer cooking your own breakfast to paying €17 for a buffet
- You are a digital nomad needing a reliable workspace and fast Wi-Fi
- You want to be walking distance to everything but slightly removed from Temple Bar chaos
Sauberkeit & Instandhaltung
8.5
- Housekeeping: Strictly weekly. Do not expect daily refresh. You are responsible for your own mess.
- Bathroom hygiene: Generally sparkling. Grout is clean, but the half-glass screen causes floor puddles.
- Maintenance: Modern and new. Very few reports of broken items, aside from the occasional AC glitch.
- Linens & towels: Crisp and white, but you only get one set for your short stay unless you ask/pay.
- Odors & scents: Hallways can smell of cooking (fish/oil) due to the apartment nature of the building.

FAQ & Geheimtipps
Alles, was Sie vor der Buchung wirklich wissen möchten.
Is there parking at the hotel?
No. You have to park at Q-Park IFSC (Commons St), which is an 8-10 minute walk away. Guests get a discounted rate of ~€23/24 hours.
Does the hotel have air conditioning?
Yes, all rooms have AC, which is a rarity in Dublin, though some guests find the units noisy.
Is luggage storage free?
Technically yes, but the storage room is small and frequently reaches capacity. Don't rely on it 100%.
How often is the room cleaned?
Only once every 7 days. If you stay 3-4 nights, you will not get a clean unless you pay an extra fee.
Is there a gym?
Yes, a small but functional fitness room with cardio machines and free weights. Open 24/7.
Can I cook in the room?
Yes, kitchenettes have a hob, microwave, fridge, and dishwasher. Great for simple meals, but no oven in studios.

- ✨
Join the Staycity member club online before booking to get a small discount and potentially late checkout.

The 'communal laundry' is a lifesaver for long trips, but bring your own detergent pods just in case.
- ✨
Ask for a 'quiet room' in the 'Special Requests' box when booking; staff are generally responsive to this.
5 Dinge, die Sie wissen sollten, bevor Sie losfahren
💡The train noise isn't just a 'whoosh', it's a physical rumble on the embankment side.
💡The 'fishy' smell in the corridors is a recurring complaint, likely due to poor ventilation from in-room cooking.
💡You have to take your own trash out to the hallway bins if you generate a lot during a short stay.
💡The shower partitions are half-glass, meaning the bathroom floor often gets soaked.
💡The 'sofa beds' in larger apartments are functional but not exactly cloud-like for adults.
