Disliked: Room comfort
Positives: The room is clean, the lobby is really nice for lounging, or reading. If you need to be in the area, it’s a nice neighborhood. Negatives: The room single room resembles a small pension, rather than a room. It’s difficult to see how small it is by photos. If you’re up the stairs, it’s really awkward getting suitcases through the maze of steps, hallways, and doors. If you have a difficult time with lifting luggage, and steps, this isn’t for you, unless you know what room you’re in beforehand. Lastly, I prefer to stay at hotels with a free breakfast, although I know that not all have it included in the price. They even charge 3 Euros for coffee.

Egan House was a fine stay in Dublin. It's affordable, clean and the service was good. Our room was really tight and the bed/pillows were not very comfortable, but it did the job.

We checked in around 3:00 PM and were surprised to learn that parking must be reserved in advance. The nearest available street parking was approximately a 10-minute walk from the property. There is no elevator, and no staff were present to assist with heavy luggage. The rooms are quite compact, and the hallways are noisy, with very creaky stairs adding to the disturbance. Fortunately, we were only staying for a short period—about 10 hours. However, the following morning, as we were preparing to catch our flight back to Canada, an issue arose. My daughter used the bathroom in our room and accidentally became locked inside due to a faulty door lock. After about 20 minutes, she became distressed and was crying. Despite it being early (around 7:00 AM), I searched the property for assistance. It took approximately 30 minutes to locate a staff member, who eventually arrived with a screwdriver to unlock the door. This morning delay made us rush dramatically to the airport! Based on our experience, I would not feel comfortable recommending this property to others.

We really liked the quaint, homey atmosphere of Egan’s Guest House. The garden was so peaceful! We appreciated the ability to borrow a large fan from the front desk for our comfort at night. It was nice to be able to walk right down the street for dinner at The Botanic. We only stayed one night, but it was perfect for us.

The absolute worst hotel!

Do not stay here. This had to be the worst place we have ever stayed! Even compared to European small room standards! The pictures the hotel provides are misleading. Everything is old! The beds and pillows are hard. There is carpet on the floor in the bedroom which made us question the overall cleanliness of the room. There is poor ventilation in the rooms as well. Definitely not worth the prices they are charging. This felt more like a hostel than a bed and breakfast. It was so uncomfortable that we left earlier than planned and found a beautiful newer hotel in Dublin's shopping district with a king bed for less than what Egan's charged for their run down facility.
