to get started.

Breakfast is awesome and the location is just great! Staff was v friendly.

Susanne, Switzerland

Really easy to access and right in the middle of the city! I loved the concept and the breakfast was fabulous, toast, yogurt, cereal and fresh orange juice!

Paula, Germany

The location was ideal for travelling to the most essential spots in Dublin. The staff were very helpful.

Cameron, Ireland

Clean, spacious, location perfect, breakfast included. Staff was also very nice

Aurore, France

The location was handy for buses and footing it. The bathroom was handy, though I always hate having the toilet and the shower together. Front desk people were very helpful.

Kaylie, Canada

Excellent central location, solid wi-fi, free breakfast, free luggage storage, light and power outlet station at each bunk, great value

Tyler, United States of America

The location is excellent if you are wanting to explore downtown Dublin, or take tours from the city center. It is close to everything on the south side of the Liffey, but also convenient for exploring north of the river. The hostel was clean and secure; the staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was plain and simple, but had something for everyone, and the kitchen area was tidy and clean, as well. Although I am a "seasoned" traveller, I never felt out-of-place at the hostel - there were people there of all ages, and all walks of life.

Laurie, Canada

Location is great - very easy to meet up with people at Temple Bar and you feel safe walking home alone as a female. People are friendly and were keen to get out an do pub crawls etc. I slept in a 12 bed dorm and had no problems. Storage under beds was ideal. Laundry mat is very close and cheap.

Katherine, New Zealand

Excellent Location, had Room at back of Property, so nice and quiet. 3 Bed Room 41, had two bunk beds and a double bed for the lucky person who gets that one. Staff friendly and efficient. All in All a good stay for the price paid

Ben, United Kingdom

Fortunate enough to get a beautiful view of the river. Right next to all the night life. Great bars and resturuants 100m away.

“Highly recommend Abigail's Hostel to ALL ages of traveller!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group of friends
- • 1 Bed in 6 Bed Female Room Ensuite
- • Stayed 9 nights
눉Because the room have no fan, it did get a tad stuffy once all the beds were filled, so we slept with the windows open - while this gave a lovely breeze, it also allowed for A LOT of noise at night time: traffic-noise from the street below, and people-noise due to the proximity to the Temple Bar area. However, with a healthy supply of ear plugs, the noise issue was not a huge problem!
눇The location is excellent if you are wanting to explore downtown Dublin, or take tours from the city center. It is close to everything on the south side of the Liffey, but also convenient for exploring north of the river. The hostel was clean and secure; the staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was plain and simple, but had something for everyone, and the kitchen area was tidy and clean, as well.

눉The rooms and bathrooms are dated; there could be more space in the rooms. One toilet/shower for six people (in our case) was not enough in the mornings. Shared toilets in each floor would be a great thing. Pricey for what it is.
눇Well located and friendly staff.

눉You can't use the kitchen to prepare for breakfast or lunch in the morning, and the facilities do not allow for many people to cook at one time. I had to leave early each morning for work, and some staff would allow for this and let me make some toast to eat but others were very strict and wouldn't let you eat before 7:30-7:40am, so I couldn't have breakfast. If you are coming to work/study I would avoid this hostel, but would recommend for very short stays.
눇Location is great - very easy to meet up with people at Temple Bar and you feel safe walking home alone as a female. People are friendly and were keen to get out an do pub crawls etc. I slept in a 12 bed dorm and had no problems. Storage under beds was ideal. Laundry mat is very close and cheap.

눇Excellent Location, had Room at back of Property, so nice and quiet. 3 Bed Room 41, had two bunk beds and a double bed for the lucky person who gets that one. Staff friendly and efficient. All in All a good stay for the price paid
