Location and breakfast awesome! Bed was comfortable, room was quiet for sleep, small but cozy for my solo travel. I loved the vibe of the Mercantile, would definitely stay again. Staff helpful and friendly! Not set for business travel if you are looking for that and need room to work, I was on vacay time so keep that in mind.

If I go back to Dublin I will try to get a booking at this hotel. It was perfect. Smack dab in the middle of everything but still calm and quiet inside. Modern amenities thank you! Smart TV and easy to charge our devices. Quirky and pleasing decor.

My mom and I stayed here for 6 nights. The hotel is right in the city center and is surrounded by things to do and most of it is in walking distance or a very short drive. The hotel room was very nice, clean, and thankfully blocked out the sound from the streets. We absolutely loved this hotel and the staff are friendly. We recommend going down to the bar/restaurant downstairs because the drinks and food are really good and it’s easily accessible.
