“Get what you pay for!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 May 2013

Pros: 1. The Airlink bus stop is pretty much right outside the door - very handy! 2. Fairly inexpensive. 3. Irish breakfast in the morning wasn't spectacular but was okay. There was also a choice of 4 cereals as an alternative. No fruit though, which was a pity. 4. Bathroom was clean and the shower was good with excellent water... More

“Basement room”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 May 2013

My gf and I stayed here for 1 night after an evening flight arrival on our way to Bray. Grand location (Airlink bus stop practically in front of the door), good shower, lovely brekkie... but we got the shortest straw roomwise : we'd booked via the internet and were given a room in the basement. Never anyone's favourite place, I... More

Hi Wimsterino Sorry that the basement room was not to your satisfaction, it is often a difficult balance between saying no room in the Inn or offering a weary traveller a place to stay, on your next visit please make sure to let us know your requirements and enjoy another FREE pint in Ned Keenan’s Pub.

“Clean, comfortable and a great location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 May 2013

Stayed here for 2 nights with my father as we were traveling across Ireland for a family ancestory adventure. Great location from the City Centre with a bus stop to Dublin Int'l Airport right outside the front door. Room was comfortable, clean and relatively quiet (except for Dublin traffic / sirens, but close the blinds and you'll be just fine).... More

“Breakfast included - not wifi access”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 April 2013

Good location. For safety conditions, they ask you to leave at front desk your key room before you go out. The breakfast is included and is good. There's a computer at the common area but it didn't work.

“Glen Guesthouse, Dublin”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 April 2013

We found this guest house on Hotels.com and chose it because of it's close proximity to the City centre. It may be a little ragged around the edges but it was clean, warm and comfortable. The Night Manager needs to improve his customer service. The breakfast was more than adequate and offered a full Irish or continental. All in all,... More

5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 March 2013

The stuff was nice and we could ask anything. They were here to answer any question. The bedroom was really clean, big and comfortable. We appreciated the tea and coffe in the room. If we go back to Dublin, we will take a bedroom again in this hotel.

Lovely shower with tons of hot water, a springy, old matress, thin and a bit weird cheapo hotel bed cover, ok servitude, no WIFI in the Rooms, daily cleaning makes this a mixed bag. Combine it with a good location, nice price (if you reserve on their website) and you still might want to choose this one. rooms on top... More
