Nice stay in the Temple Bar area of Dublin. Close to a lot of dining and shopping options. Walkable to most everything else, including Trinity College/Book of Kells, St. Patrick Cathedral and several large churches, Dublin Castle, St. Steven's Green park, Grafton Street, and more. We especially enjoyed The Temple Bar Pub. We took a hop-on/hop-off bus to see more of the sights that were further away. For those of us not really up on Irish history, the Kilmainham Gaol is a must-see.

I had an excellent stay at The Mercantile. The room was lovely, and the whole hotel was brand new! The bar was magnificent and truly beautiful. Ok so now about the food… the food in the Mercantile restaurant was INCREDIBLE! I work in the industry and I don’t say that lightly. From the amazing scones and pastries to the delicious Eggs Royale, the full Irish Breakfast was spot on. I really appreciated how they cooked the rashers where they flipped the tails under and so the lean bit formed a nice cup. The puddings were also excellent and the eggs cooked perfectly. For dinner the Pithivier is not to be missed!!! With the marrow gravy that I could literally drink. I had the scallops and scotch egg as well for starters and they were both excellent. They also served the starters with toasted sourdough, which almost stole the show. In summary if you want a great place to stay that is right in the middle of everything and you enjoy great food and drink in a stylish setting look no further. I will definitely be back!!!

Breakfast was disappointing

Breakfast was disappointing. Food was very greasy. I've never been refused a latte in any hotel i have ever stayed in but i was here, also baffled how they don't stock HP brown sauce especially when serving an irish breakfast, bizarre.

The location is perfect if you are wanting to explore Temple Bar! You can definitely hear people partying pretty late but that didn’t bother us, it comes with the location. The room is also quite small but my partner and I are both on the smaller side so we were good with that too. In addition, the staff was absolutely amazing and you had to scan your card to get to the floor your room was on so we definitely felt very safe (Dublin itself felt really safe to us in general). I had the best sleep of the trip at this hotel due to the fresh linens, air conditioned room and comfy mattress - plus we were able to login to my Netflix on the tv which just helped us wind down at the end of the day.

Great stay - very conveniently positioned, lovely breakfast, fab staff, spotless room, stylish decor. NB, cosy double room is just that! You can make a coffee from one side of the bed, and close the curtains from the other side 😅 but that's a 'small' niggle overall. I would stay here again should I return to Dublin
