Top Kilmainham Gaol Historical Museum Hotel Reviews

The Chancery Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Very comfortable rooms."

Zanzibar Locke

10/10 Excellent

"We were here for a night. The front desk staff were super helpful and accommodating. We were lucky to have a early check-in. The room was very spacious and really clean. We would love to come back to this hotel .Highly recommend"

Marlin Hotel Stephens Green

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed here for 3 nights in mid October, 2026. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, the room was immaculate, comfortable and well appointed. The location is excellent: right in the heart of the city, yet just far enough away where it’s convenient, yet quiet. Next time in Dublin, I know where I’ll be booking!"

The Morgan Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed in the superior queen room which was stunning. Plenty of room for a comfortable weekend stay and good amenities. There was some noise from outside at night but that’s to be expected being in the Temple Bar area. Regardless, we both slept really well. Staff were really friendly and helpful. Only downside would be being unable to cast media to the TV from my iPhone. It looks like this isn’t an issue for Android users."

citizenM Dublin St. Patrick's

10/10 Excellent

"We love this hotel chain. Staff is always so helpful. Breakfast is super. Very clean rooms. Comfy bedding."

Point A Dublin The Liberties

8/10 Good

"My wife and I stopped for a short city break in Dublin in October 2026. The location of the hotel was superb and close to all of the city centre attractions. The reception staff were polite and very helpful. We were allowed to drop our bags off before check in and again after check out to spend our time in the city. We booked breakfast for both of the mornings we stopped, which was very helpful as Dublin is not the cheapest place. It was a continental breakfast and was really good. The room was clean and bijoux for a city break, as after all it is really only a place to rest your head. Were we to visit Dublin again I would have no hesitation in stopping here again."

The Hendrick Smithfield

8/10 Good

"Good location. Easy to walk around Dublin. Comfortable bed."

easyHotel Dublin City Centre

8/10 Good

"The hotel was really clean and appeared to have been renovated recently. We really appreciated the friendly staff, especially Marta, who helped us with tips, advice, and suggestions. Way to go, Marta!"

Ashling Hotel Dublin

10/10 Excellent

"We always enjoy coming to the Ashling when in Dublin. The staff was super helpful, especially when this time traveling with an infant. We were able to be checked in early and room was always well taken care of. Close to the Dublin Zoo, Jameson Bow Street, and with easy access to Hueston Station and Luas, puts the Ashling in a great location. And the Iveagh Bar is a nice place to relax with a drink at the end of the day."
