This hotel was amazing! The staff were so friendly and welcoming. They were incredibly helpful, and they even helped us learn how to use the FreeNow taxi app! (They were also able to call a taxi for us, but we knew we would want to use FreeNow during our stay so it was helpful to have their guidance.) The restaurant served delicious dinner, and the breakfast was amazing! The outdoor seating is a small oasis in busy Dublin. I would highly recommend this hotel to our friends and family, and we would love to return for another stay in the future!

Cute boutique hotel in Dublin

Fantastic location and interesting boutique hotel! We loved the emphasis on poetry and writers. Breakfast was delicious. The smaller rooms are very small and may not be a good fit if you are traveling with a lot of luggage.

I thoroughly enjoyed my 2 night stay at The Wilder. The staff was incredibly nice and attentive. They went out of their way to recommend local eateries, helped us when we needed a plug to fit the outlet, and helped me when I accidentally left my key card in the room. The rooms were clean, up modern, and the ac worked great. 10/10 would definitely stay here again in the future!

Lovely picturesque hotel with a warm welcome

One of the nicest hotel stays I've had in a good while. The hotel is lovely, charming and located on a quiet street just outside of the city. On a nice day, it's lovely to sit outside with a drink and nibbles - the perfect getaway. The building is immaculately kept and the rooms are very comfortable. And from the moment we arrived, we were made to feel most welcome. The breakfast was excellent, though it's worth noting that lunch and dinner menus were more lite bites and salads, so if you're looking for something more substantial you'll need to go to one of the several nearby restaurants. Highly recommended.

I had an exceptional stay at this unique boutique hotel. I was upgraded to a suite, which was quite special and unexpected. The attention to detail in the room was exquisite. Everything was perfect and the breakfast was quite well done. I wish I could have stayed longer and would love to return.

A beautiful hotel with wonderful accommodating staff!!! however, the room we were given was a cubbyhole with absolutely no place to put our clothes.. it was made clear to us that as a historical hotel they couldn’t build closets. However, there wasn’t even drawer space!! – – If we had known we’d be tripping over our suitcases for two days, we would not have gone there!!! As well, breakfast was not even included in the hefty price for the room.
