Top The Book of Kells Hotel Reviews

The Mercantile Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location for shopping and touring. Breakfast was included and delicious and fresh. The onsite restaurant was great and perfect “to come home to” for after dinner drinks and dessert. Great Boutique vibe. Comfy bed and modern bath. Room was small to walk around, but we never go to a hotel to stay in the room all day! Windows open for fresh air and to be able to hear the bells and local chatter, something I always enjoy. Would stay again and highly recommend. Excellent value for this property."

Point A Dublin Parnell Street

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and accommodating hotel. Pristine rooms."

The Trinity City Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐I had a wonderful stay at The Trinity City Hotel in Dublin. The location was fantastic, making it easy to explore the city on foot while still enjoying a quiet and comfortable atmosphere.What stood out most to me was the unique blend of modern comfort and historic character. The property has a welcoming charm that feels distinctly Dublin, while offering all the conveniences of a contemporary hotel. The staff were friendly, professional, and always happy to help with recommendations and questions.My room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, and I especially appreciated the relaxing environment after a day of sightseeing. The hotel's central location, combined with its warm hospitality and stylish setting, made for a memorable experience.I would happily stay here again and would recommend The Trinity City Hotel to anyone visiting Dublin and looking for a comfortable, character-filled place to stay."

The Chancery Hotel

8/10 Good

"The Chauncery is a bit expensive for what you get, Wifi is slow, breakfast is average, and while the location is relatively central it is far enough from the buses to the airport that does not make it convenient. Overall it's a decent hotel, just not worth the price."

Wellington Temple Bar

10/10 Excellent

"The bst part was definately the entire staff at Wellington! This was a happy friendly experience with the initial hotel reception, through to all of the restauarant and bar staff. Thank you, Wellington!"

Zanzibar Locke

8/10 Good

"The room itself was good, and the AC is solid as most hotels in Ireland do not have it. This is more of an apartment hotel than standard hotel, which is great. There is a small kitchenette and a washer in unit. WiFi is also pretty solid. Additionally, the location is very central to the city center as well as buses to the airport. Overall, I would select this hotel as a mid-trip stay, since you can do your laundry."

Arlington Hotel O'Connell Bridge

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful place, very friendly and helpful staff. They arranged for a taxi to pick us up the morning we left. There is NO air conditioning so we slept with the window open a bit (w/the desk fan blowing the temp at the end of August was ok) but a bit of street noise could be heard. We had packed our white noise machine so overall it was ok. The shower’s water pressure was incredibly strong. Very conveniently located within walking distance to Grafton St, College Green, and other places."

The Grafton Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great experience. Would definitely stay there again."

Clink i Lár

10/10 Excellent

"Clean and comfortable hostel. Good location, walking distance to most things. Check in and check out are automated so there's no option to check in early, although there is a bar in the hostel you can wait in and luggage storage available downstairs for a fee."
