The most wonderful city break we have had! The perfect location, literally on the corner of Stephen’s green park. The MOST caring and wonderful staff, very big shout out to Patrick and Zoe at breakfast for making our stay so lovely. They went the extra mile to make sure we were comfortable and engaged with our toddler so well too. They memorised our breakfast and coffee orders and room was kept so clean and tidy. Would highly recommend and we will definitely come back if we visit Dublin again.

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.

We were looked after from the moment we arrived. There was always someone to help us find a taxi or recommend local dining. The room was incredibly comfortable. We overlooked the beautifully manicured gardens where a water feature gently lulled us into an afternoon nap on a couple of occasions. The Cellar Bar just an elevator ride away (but also accessibly from the road for friends meeting us) was a fantastic option for casual dining. The mussels served there were worth the trip to Dublin!...

Another great experience at The Davenport. The hotel is in a beautiful building with a smart and tasteful renovation and decir just minutes away from Trinity Collage, parks and the best Dublin has to offer. But what makes The Davenport so unique is the young multicultural staff working there. Always welcoming, always smiling and taking care you are having a lovely time. I spend almost 180/ 200 nights a year touring Europe and the States, many times hotels offer Spas, swimingpools, gardens and so...

Fantastic hotel. Our second time staying here. Wouldn’t go anywhere else in Dublin. The hotel is perfect in every regard! Staff all lovely and helpful. Hotel has a wonderful quality finish throughout. Really nice and quiet at night. Only ten minutes walk to the main action in Dublin. Great bar. Gorgeous breakfast (& Guinness ha). Loved it

One of the nicest hotels we have stayed in. lovely staff, friendly and attentive. Rooms are clean and spacious and lots of finer details thought off as was celebrating our anniversary. Breakfast was delicious.
Hugh Jackman stayed at this hotel the same weekend, so must be amazing! :)
Only down fall for me is that they throw all the breakfast items away at the end of each sitting as it needs to be fresh. So much lovely food waisted must cost them a fortune and could do someone a good turn.

Situated just off the River in Christchurch (a minute's walk from Temple Bar), the location of the hotel is perfect for exploring all sightseeing tours in Dublin (on foot). Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Attached to the hotel is a bar and restaurant, breakfast was included with our room and was of good quality. Our room was a good size, clean and comfortable. Nothing bad to report whatsoever - 100% recommend.
