We enjoyed our stay at The Merchant House. We were traveling with our 16 y.o. son and stayed in the WB Yeats suite in April. Someone met us when we arrived around 10:45am but we were not able to get into out room yet. Since there is no lobby or public bathroom (really just a short narrow hallway right off... More

We stayed in the Bram Stoker suite. No view as no windows only roof windows which we had to keep shut because of the thumping from nearby night clubs. Noise stopped about 3am and we opened skylights but the seagulls had arrived by then. Did not like the rules and regulations. E.g. If we soiled bed or floor €100 fine.... More

I was very disappointed in the merchant house. I had booked it online and it was in the hotels section, listed as a boutique hotel. This is very misleading as it is a guesthouse. You are essentially renting a room in a house. There is no reception and no facilities. The location is in the heart of temple bar. It... More

We had just gotten married, and were staying in Dublin for one night before we flew out of the country. We decided to treat ourselves with a boutique hotel in the heart of everything, and this hotel met all expectations. We were staying in the Oscar Wilde Suite. If you're in there, be ready to walk up 4 flights of... More

We were extremely happy with The Merchant House. We stayed in the Bram Stoker room which is in the back. Consequently, though there are no views, there is no noise either. Yet when you walk out the door you find yourself in the heart of theTemple Bar area. The Castle is just up the hill, Christchurch Cathedral is a 5... More

The Merchant House in Dublin is perfectly located in the Temple Bar area of Dublin. The room is spacious to say the least. It is nicely decorated and clean. In spite of being on a busy street there is NO noise. You cannot here a thing from outside. If you are familiar with Dublin, this is a perfect place. However,... More

We booked the Oscar Wilde 'suite' for the second part of our honeymoon. The hotel was fairly easy to find and in central temple bar. It was lovely and clean and the bed was very comfortable. Unfortunately what was not mentioned ont he hotel information is that it is directly opposite a nightclub, and as you can imagine this was... More

4 differing suites - all of which I have stayed in over last 2 months. Always a new touch of sumptuousness or soft furnishings added. A bit of 5* deluxe luxury at 3 star prices.Ideal for working from or holidaying in. With breakfast available at the local upmarket cafe, it is ideal for the early bird or the party animal... More

The Merchant House is ideally located in Temple Bar with all the pubs and eating places close by. We stayed in the Oscar Wilde suite which was gorgeous roomy clean and had a wonderfully comfortable bed. It is however at the top of the building which means a few flights of stairs so if you don't like stairs consider one... More
