It would be a great hotel except for very basic problems. Toilets do not flush well. The heat is either blasting or off. No control of temperature. They have that old UK separate hot and cold faucets. It's a small room in addition.

Bed was comfortable and room large. We were very pleased. The location was perfect for seeing the touristy side of Dublin, very walkable. The hotel itself has some dated features (e.g. discolored marble in the bathroom) but the soaking tub was perfect.

I got there hours before check in and was able to drop off my luggage at no cost. The kind receptionist recommended an amazing coffee shop and even gave me directions there. While exploring the city, I received a call from the hotel. I had accidentally left my ID and debit card on the counter at reception. After grabbing it and enjoying a night at the hotel, they booked a taxi for me upon request and helped me

Great location tho the hotel is a little lomg in the tooth. If you like sterile corporate hotels like Hilton or Marriott, this one is not for you. However, if you want to feel like you’re in the real Ireland, stay here. I would stay here again

Well maintained historic hotel with very good service, ample breakfast buffet, onsite restaurant and convenient location. Transportation is readily available and easy walking distance to many of the Dublin City attractions. The lack of air conditioning could be a drawback in the warmer months.

The property itself is beautiful. The staff was outstanding. But we were there for 3 nights and never once had a hot shower. First night, plumber was allegedly fixing the problem. But we never had hot water in our room the entire time. Disappointing.

I stayed at The Arlington in Dublin and really enjoyed the experience. The location is excellent—right by the River Liffey and within walking distance of Temple Bar and many key attractions. The rooms are comfortable and clean, with everything you need for a city stay. What really stood out was the atmosphere in the hotel bar and restaurant; the live Irish music and dancing in the evenings made it feel very authentic and lively. Staff were welcoming and helpful, adding to the overall charm. A great choice if you want both comfort and a fun taste of Dublin’s culture
