This was my first time in Dublin. I wanted to make sure I was in a great location for food, drinks, and music. The Temple Bar area, while touristy (yes, I was a tourist), still felt authentic to this historical city. Wellington Temple Bar is in the perfect location to walk to several attractions. The room was small, but I was solo and only in the room to sleep, so it was perfectly fine. The bed was super comfy, though. The staff were very friendly and helpful. With this hotel being in such a busy area, the room was surprisingly quiet, even with the bar/restaurant downstairs. At the end of the day, I’d wind down at the bar/restaurant to reflect on the great day I had in the city. I do plan to go back to Dublin and will stay at the Wellington if it’s available to book.
