Lovely friendly and helpful hosts. Easy bus commute into the city. We were allowed to check-in early which worked well for us as we had an early flight into Dublin. Great breakfast too. Highly recommended.

Very clean and tidy. Excellent range of teas and breakfast options. Just a few issues. As a light sleeper I found the main road difficult. It's a busy road. The wifi in the bedroom was not secure and kept dropping out. Operating the TV was challenging too.

Weekend in Dublin
Competitively priced B&B. On 24-hr bus route, 30 mins town, 20 mins airport. Friendly host, great breakfast. Near Omni Park mall. Cooked breakfast only between 08.00 and 09.00 was a bit limiting. Hot drinks available in breakfast room, not in bedrooms. Overall, great. Would stay again.

Dublin marathon weekend stay
Arrived at hotel easy enough and was well located to find . Was greeted at door by Tom and given all information needed for my stay . Room was great with everything needed. Had a minor issue with the hot water in the shower taking forever to get hot but when it did it was fantastic . Following day the shower was fine .could of done with a shelf in the shower to put shower gel/shampoo on rather than having to put them on the shower floor . Wooden polished floor was a nice touch in the room, although it was very slippy trying to walk around. Had a great hot breakfast with a pot of coffee before leaving . Overall hotel was immaculately clean . Excellent location to get into Dublin and the airport.

Tom greeted me professionally with a print out of all my passwords, advice on getting into town, restaurants eat in locally etc. I ate a late lunch in the pub 9 doors up and it was gorgeous. The room I stayed in was huge, warm, clean and quiet. Ensuite huge. Tom then served up a lovely full Irish breakfast the next morning along with some great conversation and advice. Recommend to the max.

Incredible B&B
We only stayed for one night, but our stay was absolutely wonderful. The owner was incredibly kind and accommodating and really went above and beyond to make our stay as comfortable as possible. I couldn't recommend staying here more.

This place is absolutely lovely. Tom is a fantastic host/owner and he and his team are very attentive, helpful, and lovely people thay ake your stay welcoming and delightful. The space is very clean and the rooms are very comfortable. You get served a delicious breakfadt that could be either hearty or light, as they have various options to choose from. The spot itself is very convenient as it is located outside of bus stops that take you to and from the city center and airport. We would definitely recommend it here for any traveler's coming to visit Dublin.

Nice stopover spot between airport and city center
Tom is a great host! He greeted me at the door and showed me around. He verbally told me and then also gave me an informational page about foot entertainment and transportation. This place is halfway between town and the airport right on the main bus route. Make sure you have exact change ready for the buses which was 2.6€ downtown and 1.7€ to the airport if I remember correctly. The breakfast was delicious…best bacon and coffee that I had in Ireland. The bed was ok, shower fine, room ok. No negatives except that there was a general light body odor smell in the pillows and covers. This was the only minor issue that I had, everything else was super!

Such lovely, lovely staff. Flexible, welcoming, friendly. Gorgeous breakfast! Property is right next to a bus stop with heaps of frequent buses into town (just remember that you must have the exact amount of cash for bus fares in Dublin…) The room was tiny and the loo didn’t flush very well but meh. It was very quiet at night which was great. I can’t get over how lovely the staff were! They are authentic, caring, and cook your breakfast for you individually!

I had a great stay. The host was very kind and helpful during my stay. The rooms were clean and well-maintained. I would definitely recommend staying here for your trip to Dublin. You’re slightly outside of city center but you’re near the airport. It’s very easy to get into city center. The bus stop is nearby and it’s only about 3 miles/ 4.8 km.

The room was super clean and modern. The breakfast was hot and tasty. Bus stop to the airport is outside B&B and is only about a 10 minutes ride, and the bus stop to the city center is a 2-3 minute walk and about a 25-30 minute ride. There is a local restaurant with pub food less than 1 minute by foot. The hosts were friendly, accommodating and knew the area well.

Lovely family run b&b, great location.
Recently stayed here for the weekend with my partner for the Chris brown concert and to explore Dublin. We had a lovely warm welcome from Tom and SallyAnn who were extremely accommodating and helpful with tips on how to get around Dublin, the bus stop right out the front is brilliant for getting back to the b&b. It is a 10 minute bus journey to and from the airport also the bus stop opposite 2 minutes away with busses that run regularly into city centre is great (takes 30mins to get into city centre) We had a lovely warm Irish breakfast Saturday morning before setting out to explore again, served with tea, coffee, orange juice and toast️. We had a clean, comfortable, quiet room with blankets that felt weighted so we slept like babies! Brilliant stay, Brilliant City, would 100% recommend this B&B for your trips to Dublin!
