Top Dublin 8 Hotel Reviews

Marlin Hotel Stephens Green

10/10 Excellent

"Loved it! Excellent location, staff and facilities."

Hotel Riu Plaza The Gresham Dublin

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed for 6 nights and had a wonderful experience. The hotel is perfectly located within walking distance of plenty of local pubs and restaurants, while being just far enough away from the more heavily trafficked tourist areas like Temple Bar. Everything is still easily walkable. The hotel is situated on a busy street, but that comes with the added convenience of easy access to buses and being able to get around the city. Despite the location, I never once felt unsafe. The staff were pleasant and welcoming. The facility is immaculate. Overall, a great place to stay if you’re looking for convenience, comfort, and a location that lets you experience Dublin easily. I would absolutely recommend it."

Zanzibar Locke

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is well located, right on the north side of the River Liffey, very near the Ha'penny Bridge, so it's easy to walk across to the south side of the river, in particular to the Temple Bar area, with so many pubs and restaurants. But there are also some excellent pubs and restaurants on the north side, very close to the hotel. The hotel itself has an excellent cafe and a very good restaurant "Merrow", with a small but well chosen menu. This is especially good if you just don't want to go out after a long day of sightseeing and walking, or if it's raining, etc. The Hop On Hop Off buses goes right buy, as do numerous city buses. The hotel is clean and well kept, and the shower works well (not all do!). I would stay here again."
