Nice location, dated amenities and interior

Hotel was a bit dated compared to what photos showed online. Lights in our room did not work, but all outlets worked. No AC. Carpeting was old and mismatched. Great location and convenient for walking around Dublin, but probably wouldn’t book this hotel again.

Missing basics

While we were there, we were unable to take a shower. Our shower reduced to a trickle when we used hot water. We did tell the hotel on our first morning but it wasn't fixed. Additionally, on our first morning, our toilet wouldn't flush. We had to go out for the day to use the toilet but it was fixed by the time we returned 7 hours later. The chromecast TV wasn't hooked up. When we called to tell them that it wasn't working, they told us they were aware and that a technician had been scheduled. When we checked out and again reported being unable to shower, showing them a video of the shower, they asked us if we had additional time. We did have 10 minutes and were offered another room to take a shower but unfortunately, 10 minutes wasn't enough for us to unpack and shower. Without a shower or working toilet, or streaming TV, we did note in writing to them that we felt we should get some reimbursement. We have not had a response from them.

Great location and staff, quiet and clean!

Nice historic hotel right in the heart of Dublin City Centre, reasonably priced, and walking distance to a lot. The staff was great (thanks, Shane!), and the room was spacious. It's an older hotel, so if you prefer more modern facilities this might not be for you but that doesn't matter to me so long as it's clean, comfortable, and the staff is friendly and helpful. he Arlington checked all of those boxes for me! I'd recommend it and would stay there again if visiting the Dublin area in the future.

All-Ireland Weekend

Location is fantastic, right in the heart of Dublin city. Staff was excellent, very helpful. Bar/restaurant on the first floor is huge, food was good, live music most nights. Only possible drawback was no air conditioning & the nights we stayed in July were quite warm. Leaving our window open was not an option because there was is alley behind the hotel where our room was located, lots of noise throughout the night from trucks, deliveries, etc. other than that, excellent hotel and location. Would definitely stay there again.

Great location except if you are driving. There is no parking on street and no lot. The lots they work with are walkable but if u need to get your car before 8:00 AM they maybe closed. Thank goodness for the amazing hotel employee who let me park in the employee lot below. He was accommodating and understood my early flight situation.

This hotel falsely advertises rooms. AVOID

Absolutely terrible, family room accommodations were falsely advertised, with insufficient beds and non functioning windows. When I showed booking confirmation to front desk associate, he consistently rudely interrupted, and argued with me, condescendingly lecturing me on how it was not his responsibility to fix the mistake and that i needed to have hotels.com resolve the issue. Had to sleep on the hotel room floor as we were provided fewer beds than the booking promised. AVOID THIS HOTEL
