Clayton Hotel Dublin Airport Central

10/10 Excellent

"I only stayed for one night but it was quite nice. Also, the airport is just a quick walk away, so if you don't have a lot to carry, it's very doable."

Temple Bar Hotel Dublin by The Unlimited Collection

6/10 Okay

"Deluxe room pretty shabby, no fridge in the room, dust in the wardrobe, blinking lights. Old heating unit that didn’t work. For 250eur it wasn’t a very pleasant experience. Also very noisy area. If you have a room facing the street you won’t get any sleep as the party life is crazy on the street. Some members of the staff were helpful but overall not great experience 😢 "
