Top The James Joyce Centre Hotel Reviews

Staycity Aparthotels, Dublin, City Centre

10/10 Excellent

"The property is well located in Dublin, close to attractions and shopping. The room was well appointed, and the kitchen was better than expected as the microwave was a combination convection unit with a browning element, so no conventional oven needed. The room was extremely quiet too."

Marlin Hotel Stephens Green

10/10 Excellent

"The smoking patio outside the restaurant was nice for cigars. The guest laundry was a little expensive but definitely worth it. Wednesday night wings special was nice and breakfast was a good value for the price."

Zanzibar Locke

10/10 Excellent

"My wife and I enjoyed our 5 night stay at Zanzibar Locke, Ha'penny Bridge. The room was clean, comfortable and spacious. The location could not be better. Our room amenities included a Washer/Dryer combo, a good sized Refrigerator and a Dishwasher (which we did not use as we ate out every meal). The staff is amazing and it's important to note that the front desk is staffed 24/7. If we ever come back to Dublin, we'll stay again at the Zanzibar Locke."

Latroupe Jacobs Inn

10/10 Excellent

"This was my 3rd ever hostel experience and it was definitely my favourite dorm I’ve slept in. I managed to check in early thanks to the kind and friendly staff. The place was in a convenient location, safe, and easy to get to. I stayed in a 4-bed mixed dorm room and it was perfect. The bathroom was far away from the pods, the beds were clean and spacious with curtains, it had large lockers, and there were many events going on in the hostel for people to meet one another. I highly recommend this place to anyone travelling to Dublin!"

Cassidys Hotel

8/10 Good

"Very nice hotel and room."

Home2 Suites By Hilton Dublin City Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Room was clean and the full kitchen was great to have for a quick meal. Breakfast was delicious and had a large variety. Staff was friendly and helpful."

Holiday Inn Express Dublin City Centre by IHG

8/10 Good

"Driving our rental to the hotel was challenging to say the least. The hotel has nowhere to stop to unload or load and get parking into from hotel staff. we eventually found a parking garage quite a distance away. Dragged our bags to the hotel and the next day had trouble even using a gps to get back to the hotel to retrieve the luggage Staff were very nice and friendly, rooms were clean,breakfast was very good"

Point A Dublin Parnell Street

10/10 Excellent

"Really helpful staff; excellent breakfast. The only downside is that my room was not really suitable to work from. The table offering was totally unsuitable to work on - but otherwise a great place to stay."

The Morgan Hotel

8/10 Good

"Two of us stayed at the Morgan for several nights, mid-week. Hotel was great all around. Clean, updated and located in central Dublin, making it a great base for exploring the city. Breakfast was included with our rate and that was very convenient as well. Buffet or order from a limited menu. The only warning we would offer is to understand that it is right in the center of the Temple Bar district, which is very tourist driven and a pretty exuberant nightlife. Even on weeknights, the area was loud well into the early morning. The hotel itself was quiet, just no way to entirely mask the world outside. But if you're there to enjoy that experience in Temple Bar and the surrounding area, you aren't going to find a better place to start. Hotel staff was also very helpful in arranging airport taxi for us and offering advice and directions about the area. Overall, it was a very nice stay for us. We would j"
