Cold water was strangely hot at first, there was some mould on the bathroom ceiling and sealants were discoloured and needed a bit of an extra clean. Tv needs a bit of work as channels and web element was poor due to bad wifi recention. Remote control strangely the buttons were the wrong way around and had to press up to reduce volume and vice versa.. staff need be a bit more aware of health and safety as hovers left in corridors at night and wet floor sign in the middle of the stairs.

If you are getting a hotel to get sleep after a day in Dublin, this is not where you want to go! Fibbers Nightclub is right next door and when it closes the patrons congregate on the sidewalk and are extremely loud. The hotel could use some updating. Only one staff member was helpful, the remaining staff at the desk were not helpful and at times rude. No elevator so people are expected to get their luggage possibly to the third floor. No assistance from the males would help when we checked in. A female staff member did help with our bags. We lasted one night, checked out, took a taxi to a great hotel near the airport. We changed our flight and came home a week early.

Pictures posted for this hotel are not of the hotel. Very misleading. 3 pictures are actually hotel pics. The front desk, the front entrance and the bathroom. All the other pics are not from this hotel. It’s old, floors are creating, door key is an actual key. Stairs with no elevator and small hallways that are hard to carry luggage through. After researching they the area it was found to be unsafe there. Would not advise. Staff was very friendly though

This was like an apt building with rooms for rent. Not Ada accessible, lots of stairs. The location is right next to a bar and bus stop. So the noise can be annoying. They had a fan but it was on a 2 hr timer. The floor was uneven under very threadbare carpet. I was a little scared I was going to fall through. If you are desperate it will do. But personally I won’t repeat the experience. The attendant was nice when I checked in but every time after that he seemed annoyed when I asked questions. Also, you have to be buzzed in, that should give you a clue…

Comfortable, clean, and centrally located

The Gate Hotel was perfect for our stay in Dublin. It’s central and walking distance from most things we wanted to see/do. The only tricky part was that there were no elevators, so for older folks that may be tough. We managed just fine. Our room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. The staff was very welcoming and helpful. We would absolutely stay there again. They also have a deal for parking with a nearby garage, which was also helpful.

Staff was wonderful!! The room was clean and the hotel was located in a very central area. We did have a car and they have parking validation for 50% off at a nearby parking garage. Word of warning... the hotel is above a VERY loud bar that is open late. Our room vibrated from the music and the door to their smoking section of the bar was right next to our room. The music was like clash of the death metal bands lol... but i guess it added to the experience? Luckily for me, the music didn't bother me and we slept with the tv on to cover a little bit of the music.... but if you have a hard time sleeping with loud music and people talking, you won't enjoy your stay. If you're a go with the flow person... laugh it off.. or go down and check out the bar.. it's very unique!
