Top Trinity College Hotel Reviews

The Morgan Hotel

The Morgan Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"You read the location is very close to everything but until you get there it's hard to believe how true that is. We enjoyed being able to walk to everything so quickly. The sound did not bother us and after 2am it was totally silent. The hotel staff was very kind and helpful. We were lucky to have a room ready for us when our flight arrives early that morning. This was such a nice surprise as we definitely needed to refresh ourselves before enjoying Dublin for the day after a red eye."
