Dublin Hostellit

Plussat: Nice staff. Comfortable spacious bed with a soft and huge blanket. Delicious breakfast with amazing pastry. I liked staying there. Along the street are many restaurants. As you are in Salthill it only takes a 20 min walk to Galway.

Plussat: The location, the events nights, especially the wine

Miinukset: Just the bunk bed, I’m not a big person but found these bunks quite narrow.

Plussat: Nice staff, great location, good facilities, small number of people in the rooms compared to other dorms in other hostels near by

Plussat: The breakfast was fine, it had some cereals, mini pancakes, bread for toast and stuff like butter and jam. I enjoyed the free burger night. My bed was comfortable, I liked the amount of plugs available and the light was very useful too. I thought the whole setup was rather safe, and I made good use of the lockers under the bed. I also liked the left luggage service.

Miinukset: I was disapointed that the hostel had run out of earplugs when I arrived. The hostel is located next to a pub and to the busy roads of Dublin's city centre, so it was quite loud, even at night. In my room, the ensuite bathroom sink was also a little weird. For some reason, the hot tap turned around when I tried to close it. So, that was a little weird....

Plussat: Staff very helpful. They found and kept secure a bag I had left in common room. Good & early (7am) breakfast. Comfortable, inviting common room. Location could not be more central. Individual light and USB connection in bunk unit.

Plussat: Good location. Clean, good bed linnen. Good for woman travel alone.

Plussat: Great location, very clean, reasonable price.

Plussat: I really liked the staff, they were really helpful. The hostel is just in the centre of Dublin, and it's really close to the most important places.

Miinukset: Unfortunately, for the breakfast there were mostly sweet things (beside salty butter, cucumber and tomato). Cheese or ham would be nice.

Plussat: Sijainnista

Miinukset: Huoneesta, sängystä, tyynystä, suihkusta, metelistä. Muista asiakkaista lähtevä meteli käytävillä j hotellissa öisin oli järkyttävää ja henkilökunta ei puuttunut siihen millään lailla.

Plussat: Breakfast was simple yet sufficient. Location was great. So close to all the tourist attractions. Hostel was clean and presentable. Price was reasonable. Would gladly return hopefully soon.

Miinukset: some floors were uneven

Plussat: Near the best places in Dublin easy to walk to all the tourist locations very easily, as well as next door to a very awesome pub

Plussat: I liked events, nice breakfast, and the place is very, very, really very close to airport bus stop.

Miinukset: Everything ok.

Plussat: Jos pitää rennosta fiiliksestä eikä ole turhan tarkka, tämä majoitus on oiva valinta! Aamupala Ok, omat tiskit hoidetaan itse. Rauhallinen, hyvä sijainti, helppo saavuttaa lentokentältä bussilla .

Plussat: Hyvä sijainti

Miinukset: Sama aamupala jokaisena päivänä

Plussat: The staff was nice, the breakfast was nice, and the hostel is clean and tidy.

Miinukset: the room I stayed in was extremely noisy because it's near a club and the walls are thin.

Plussat: We loved the location of this hostel near St. Stephen's Green. There are plenty of pubs, interesting restaurants, and food markets nearby. Great access to transit, especially the Airlink bus stop for the 757 line just a few minutes walk away.

Miinukset: The room (a double with ensuite bathroom) was very small with no furnishing other than the bed and a stool. We've occasionally stayed in hostels before (always in a private room) but never one so sparsely furnished or tiny. There was also a strong self-service aspect to this property that we've never experienced before, such as bringing your towels down to the front desk at checkout. Those things are fine, but we concluded that it is worth it to us to pay a little more for greater comfort. We had a second reservation at this property when we return to Dublin in November but decided to cancel it in favor of one of the many other hotels in the area. Also, the hostel is very close to an all-night club playing very loud music (this didn't bother us much but is important to be aware of for light sleepers).

Plussat: Convenient to St. Stephen Green.

Miinukset: Convenient location. The room was simple but met all of our needs. The neighborhood was loud, with full-throated singing past 4:30 in the morning. In fairness, we were there Friday & Saturday. Friday was not as unhinged as was Saturday.

Plussat: Good lodgings for a short stay. Clean bathrooms. Breakfast was good enough. Good communication from the staff present.

Plussat: Location helpful staff

Miinukset: Late night noise from local bars and clubs

Plussat: Easy access to the city centre and friendly staff.

Miinukset: Quite noisy neighbourhood- a couple of night clubs in the area.

Plussat: Friendly staff and got pancakes on Saturday morning!

Miinukset: A bit noisy during the weekend, but if you use earplugs is perfectly okay!

Miinukset: I waited 40 minutes to have a sandwich for breakfast and the cash machine for the lockers didn't let me use the card. It was kind of messy. I prefer smaller hostels

Plussat: Each bed has its own locker and charging ports. Very clean! Good value for money when it comes to its facilities.

Miinukset: Staff took long to check me in. There were three of them at reception talking and I was standing infront of them for like 10mins before one of them even bothered.

Plussat: Good value for money and severice

Plussat: The showers are very good

Miinukset: The bathrooms were not so cleany.

Plussat: Beds were frankly amazing in comparison to other hostels I've been in. Comfortable and good personal light and charging

Miinukset: The room was ridiculously hot the entire time no matter what we tried to do to cool it down. No communal kitchen

Plussat: The facilities are modern and relatively clean. Rooms are well maintained and mattresses are pretty comfortable. The bar area is nice and live music is a plus. Building and rooms are also secure. Swipe cards are required to go anywhere and there’s security at the door.

Miinukset: Upon arrival, the staff was more concerned with being cool than with being courteous. Morning staff was much better. What rubbed me the wrong way about this place is that they fail to provide any kind of secure storage for even the smallest of items. There are lock boxes under the beds, but require you bring your own padlock or pay a ridiculous amount of money to use the luggage storage in the basement. Plan ahead or snuggle your valuables. Also, no outside food is allowed. Strange for a hostel. The reason given is that plenty of food is available on site for purchase. Most things on the menu were expensive for a backpacker. The restaurants and supermarket across the way are the best options. Also, the provided shower gel dispenser is always empty and make sure you double check the toilet paper before you sit down. This place clearly has its eye on being trendy to attract the young, party crowd. It’s nothing similar to what backpackers are used to from every other hostel on the planet and fails to provide the community experience and chance to meet new people that solo travelers look for. Considering the price isn’t even on the lower end, there are better places in Dublin.

Plussat: Very modern and clean place. It’s takes around 15 minutes to go to the historical center. There is also nice cafes very close to the hostel. The bar at the hostel is not so expensive. In total, I felt very comfortable and safe staying there

Miinukset: They make money of everything. Adapter for the phone costs 9 eur but if you need you can find cheaper adapters in the stores. Yeah, the place looks cool and safe and it’s understandable why the price for the room was not the cheapest but extra services are too expensive, in my opinion.

Plussat: Location and atmosphere were fun.

Miinukset: I can’t say too much here since it IS a hostel, but the walls and doors are very thin and you can hear the loud, drunk patrons coming in all night. It made for a good daytime nap, but not the best nights sleep.

Plussat: The location was great. Staff helpful. Liked on site bar and food. Very welcoming.

Miinukset: People checking in at 3am and turning all the lights on in the dorm. No toilet paper in dorm toilet.

Plussat: Everything

Miinukset: It was perfect in every way

Plussat: Location it was really good, near to the bus stop and also luas. Inside looks a bit like a hotel, bathroom was always clean. Young environment.

Miinukset: There was no kitchen.

Plussat: Great location and facilities and breakfast. Food was great.

Plussat: Nice breakfast, nice bed, and excelent stuff, extremely helpful .. They do everything to make you feel comfortable. The location is perfect, you can walk to almost every tourist spot. I recommend!!!

Miinukset: The area is a little bit noisy.

Plussat: Kahden hengen huone ja sen kylpyhuone oli ihan siisti, ei kuulunut ääniä kadulta. Vuodevaatteet oli puhtaat ja sänky ok. Sopii yhden yön edulliseen yöpymiseen.

Miinukset: Melko kulunut hostelli, yhteiset tilat eivät olleet viihtyisät. Aamupala oli leipää, muroja, pikakahvia jne. Kannattaa ostaa omia lisukkeita, kuten jugurttia, juustoa jne.

Plussat: Excellent location

Miinukset: Very very limited choices for breakfast

Plussat: Location is the best thing about this place - so close to Trinity College and an easy walk to the bus stop to your next destination. The included breakfast is also quite good, staff are quite friendly and helpful. The bathroom is inside the dorm which was good, and the dorm is very spacious.

Miinukset: Very pricey for a hostel in western europe!

Plussat: Amazingly helpful staff. Great location. Huge, clean and well furnished kitchen. I totally recommend it.

Miinukset: I have no real complaints. Everything went great. If I have to nitpick, the bunk bed was just right for my height (~190cm) and the bed frame made it a bit difficult to stretch comfortably.

Plussat: Excellent location. Very kind and helpful staff and lots of information on how best to see the city

Miinukset: There wasnt much I didn't like. Some things that may have helped was a few more options for breakfast (peanutbutter or perhaps nutella).

Plussat: Clean room, comfortable bed, good location

Miinukset: Breakfast

Plussat: Location the staff and the hostel

Plussat: Appart from location,I didn't like nothing

Miinukset: Not comfortable and confusing direction to the rooms

Plussat: It was relaxed, friendly, excellent value for money and in a prime location!

Plussat: Clean comfortable rooms with nicely sized bathroom. Plenty of storage in rooms and option to store luggage in the hostel after checkout was great. The kitchen is comfortable and spacious and everything was ready to go even before 7am. Great service !!

Miinukset: One of the 3 sets of bunk beds in the 6-bed dorm was lacking a charging station/ lamp overhead, although 2 of the bunk beds had this facility. It was a bit awkward having to charge my phone above a stranger as they slept...

Plussat: Hostelli oli erittäin hyvällä paikalla ja työntekijät olivat erittäin avuliaita ja mukavia. Huone oli siisti ja petivaatteet tuoksuivat raikkailta.

Plussat: Tunsin olevani tervetullut, ystävällinen palvelu, perus aamiainen hyvä ja kahvia sai koneesta.

Miinukset: Nukuin ylhäällä ja sänkyni oli irti seinästä välistä olisi mahtunut putoamaan. Alasänky oli kiinni seinässä. Huone oli aika pieni 6hlölle ja siellä oli hiostavaa.

Plussat: Sijainti loistava. Hyvä hinta laatusuhde.

Miinukset: Huoneessa oli liian kuuma, ikkunaa ei saanut auki.

Plussat: Man on reception was so nice, I was shocked with the quality of the rooms just fantastic so comfortable, everything perfect

Plussat: I liked the location but also the room was really clean and well equipped with several amenities included. Great stay. I would strongly recommend. This is my second stay here in this hostel and I loved it every time.

Miinukset: The balcony door couldn't be closed properly and I understood two rooms next to each other are connected with one balcony, other than that everything else was perfect!

Plussat: the hotel helped us make other arrangements to the Generator hostel in another part of Dublin. Staff were very accommodating.

Miinukset: This is no longer a hostel, so you can't get a dorm. When I booked I booked a six bed dorm and they then contacted me and told me it was no longer possible for this, as it is now a hotel. They rearranged my accomodation to another hostel in Dublin. This hostel was further out and the breakfast was shocking, but I appreciated the effort of the staff in helping us to fix the mistake. I am only leaving this review to inform others, so they do not make the same mistake.

Plussat: The property is located dead in the centre of Temple Bar area,so you could'nt be any more central than that.

Miinukset: The room was very small and stuffy as there was no window.Although the property offerred breakfast it only consisted of a packed lunch consisting of an apple and an orange.

Plussat: Location was excellent il stay again

Plussat: You can't beat the location, we didn't mind the noise as it was a small price to pay for being in the heart of Dublin and Temple Bar. I would definitely stay here again!

Miinukset: Nothing was wrong for us at all.

Plussat: Everything was nice including the recently renovated rooms. Staff were great and there was free (good) coffee and tea, which was a nice touch.

Plussat: It’s no longer a hostel as it is being turned into a hotel - the room we had a quad (4 single beds) was a lovely room Staff if needed were friendly and professional

Miinukset: The quad room was a little small and a tight fit but overall really nice Due to the small room and fitting 4 people in - we had 3 and it was very warm with no air con or fans - you couldn’t leave the window open on a night due to the noise from the bars

Plussat: Good service good

Miinukset: Good service &nice place
