The rooms truly are tiny nests and a bit tight with two people but have everything you need and super cozy. We were incredibly impressed to be able to check in early after arriving on an early morning flight!

Excellent property. The hotel staff were supperb with any questions regarding advice on locations to see and local restaurants. The breakfast in itself is worth the stay. Stayed 6 nights for my honeymoon & I would definitely recommend. There was enough room for 2 and we didn't feel over crowded in the "Snug Nest" room.

Loved the vibe and look, especially the little bar/dining lounge. Food was great. The decor is amazing. The location was perfect, as it was walking distance to everything yet set back a few streets so that was quiet enough. They also held our bags all day on our last day since our train wasn’t leaving until late in the day. The only thing we did not like was that neither room type (we had one of each) was large enough for our luggage to be opened up making it inconvenient if you don’t want to unpack your bags completely.

Great for a short stay

It was a wonderful centrally located hotel. The staff was helpful and the bar open late so while the rooms were a bit small and the ac did not work all that well, we were still happy with our stay for what we needed. If we were staying longer than a few nights I might have chosen another hotel but for only a couple nights and wanting to be near everything in downtown Dublin it was perfect.
