Top Kilmainham Gaol Historical Museum Hotel Reviews

The Hendrick Smithfield

8/10 Good

"The hotel is in an excellent location for exploring Dublin. The room was small but comfortable and well-equipped, with comfy beds and a clean bathroom and great shower. Staff were nice and helpful, and the bar area had a nice feel to it. My only negative is that there are no vegan breakfast options (just fruit and hash browns apparently) and breakfast is over 16 Euros so we ended up going out for breakfast. Luckily there’s a lovely cafe two minutes away called Third Space who do a very nice vegan breakfast. Apart from that I would definitely stay again."
