Top Dublin City University Hotel Reviews

Dublin One Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Proximity to the airport was very convenient, short taxi ride. Appreciate the secure and spacious luggage storage that was free. The front desk person was very helpful and friendly and got us into our room earlier then expected which was very appreciated. Would definitely stay again!"

Maldron Hotel Croke Park

10/10 Excellent

"Clean, updated, great food."

The Metro Hotel Dublin Airport

8/10 Good

"Was nice to have a restaurant in the hotel Not to close to amenities"

Hotel Riu Plaza The Gresham Dublin

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful place to stay for a quick trip to Dublin. The breakfast and tea were absolutely delightful."

Egans Guest House

8/10 Good

"Egan‘s guest house was beautiful and convenient for our brief one night stay in Dublin. The drawbacks were the size of the room which was absolutely minuscule. For 2 adult travellers carrying simply carry-on bags, it was beyond tight. Not enough room to get into more than one bag at a time, unless you took up the entire bed. The bed itself was also very, very small."

Avoca House

10/10 Excellent

"Avoca house was really nice, beautifully decorated, comfortable bedding, I think that was the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in ... gorgeous table setting and friendly owner. Everything shouts quality and comfort. We really enjoyed our stay and thank you Avoca house for having us."

The Bonnington Dublin & Leisure Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and pleasant place to spend your vacation! Staff were very helpful and pleasant. 10 out of 10 for this place 👏"

Maples House Hotel

8/10 Good

"No coffee in amenities area. Staff was excellent!"

DCU Rooms at All Hallows College - Hostel

8/10 Good

"The greeting on arrival was good but although the paperwork said rooms available from 3pm the receptionist said it was 4pm so we couldn't access our rooms. The rooms were clean and tidy, the bed comfortable and the shower good. Breakfast was included and there was ample choice of cooked or non-cooked items. We were able to leave our bags after checking out and pick them up later in the day which was very good."
