Location & Staff terrific!

Right near Trinity College. Within walking distance to the best things in Dublin, including many free museums. Close to "Temple Bar" area also. Public transportation by bus/light rail, to anywhere else is easy and cheap. Everyone there was friendly and very helpful, from the front desk to the "Cairo" bar and restaurant. Upbeat and interesting decor. When we return to Dublin again we will stay at the Trinity Capital hotel.

Ideal in everyway

This hotel was clean and very well-maintained. Our room had a very clean bathroom, great water pressure, loads of hot water and fluffy towels. The bed was very comfortable for two people and had a sleep-inducing feather duvet. We LOVED that the window opened and we got fresh air at night. We found the food good, the drinks better and the staff was attentive and efficient. For the price it was an amazing find. I can complain of nothing. Our location was a great walking distance to Trinity College, Temple bar, the Dart and everywhere else we decided to walk. The bus to the airport was only a couple of blocks away and much less expensive than a cab. I would stay here again and will recommend it to everyone.

Comfortable hotel in the heart of Dublin

Although the building is very plain outside, the indoors of this hotel is beautifully decorated, like with the tall throne-like chairs in the lobby. The rooms are very comfortable, too. Across the street is Trinity College, where we saw the amazing exhibit of the Book of Kells. We walked to all the other sights in the city. We never needed to take a bus. I definitely recommend this hotel. The only negative was no A/C or heating controls.

Great shopping is a short walk away where one can find many inexpensive Irish souvenir stores, like at Carroll's and at a bookstore, Eason's.

Great Location & Perks

This hotel is central to key areas of Dublin...easy walk to Grafton Street or Temple Bar. Tourist Office where many tours meet is a 5 minute walk. More important is the free internet in the Cafe and lobby and free airport shuttle to the airport. These perks are worth about 100 - 150 euros for a typical three day stay at other hotels without airport shuttle service. It's a tad noisy on the street side of the hotel ..I was on the third floor facing the street..so you could request a room on a higher floor or in the building itself as a shield against the early morning traffic. But...the noisy street is not enough to offset the pluses of this hotel. I will stay again when in Dublin.

Money-saving tip: Short walk from hotel

Take the Dublin Bus Tour on day one of your stay ...the one that lets you get on and off at your leisure...it's a good way to get to key areas/sites of the city at your own pace...and get acclimated to the city. Short walk from hotel to Dublin Tourist Office.

Great location

This hotel was in an ideal location to all the hot spots in Dublin. Grafton St., Temple Bar, Trinity College, St. Steven's Green, and the River Liffey were all a 5-10 min. walk. There's no need to rent a car as the bus and taxi services are readily available. The hotel restaurant is very expensive, but so many choices elsewhere. Breakfast at Bewley's on Grafton was fantastic. We were counting on the advertised free shuttle from airport, but were told by the shuttle driver that Trinity Capital no longer participates. Had to take a cab at 24 euro each way. Also, the hotel's guest computer was out of order the entire time we stayed. I was pleasantly surprised to be checked in at 9 a.m. after a long flight. All in all, I would highly recommend this hotel for comfort, privacy, service and value.

Do the 24 hr. hop on/ hop off tour bus deal to get around town. It stops at all major interest spots in Dublin and is cheaper than a cab ride to just one of them. (like Guinness Factory). The live tourist information is interesting and entertaining.

Girls Gone Wild

This hotel was very clean and comfortable. The room was small but who the heck is spending any time there. However, there are no dressers and a very very small closet so we ended up living out of the suitcase. But that is the worse thing I can say about it. It is pretty inside with many different places to hang out and have a beverage or work on your computer. The location was perfect. Also, we arrived at the airport at about 7 a.m. I was so afraid they would not let us check in. But they did-how cool was that!?

OMG--You have GOT to go on the Rural Pub Tour. It takes you out of Dublin to charming little pubs. We traveled in a van so the number of people were about 15 max. You cannot get information on this from the Tourist Information Centers so you must look for it on line.

Super-cool hotel

Super-quirky hotel, beautiful mixture of classical and kitsch. Great location right in the heart of Trinity College, convenient to everything. Only complaint is that the airport shuttle (Paddywagon) was not running, even though it was advertised. We waited around for it only to be told we couldn't board. Thought we should have gotten some compensation from the hotel for that, but at least the airport bus was only 7 Euro. We'll definitely stay there again.

Take a daytrip to Enniskerry and the Powerscourt Estate/Waterfall. The bus ride is 1.5 hours, but you can get there for 2 Euros!

Great location and price in Dublin City

This hotel is great if you have any business or function to attend at Trinity College. You will be walking distance from everything in city center, Temple Bar or the college.The bar and restaurant are very inviting. This was the best deal I have encountered in my 5 stays in Dublin in the past 4 years.
