Lock in a great price for Castle Hotel – rated 8.1 by recent guests!

to get started.

The full Irish breakfast was lovely, and the staff were friendly and helpful to our group of ladies on a hen weekend from England :)

Clodagh, United Kingdom

Old Dublin charm-easy access to important historical and literary sites Easy walk to the O'Connell Bridge and important places to see The Parnell Pub close to the hotel was great Air Coach for trips back and forth to the airport parks right up on O'Connell street just a short walk from the Castle Hotel Very helpful front desk staff-they had the answers to all of my questions Good full breakfast included in the price!

Linda, United States of America

We liked the location and the price. We liked the soup and beer in the basement, liked having them so nice and close. One thing we didn't like was asking for a small bowl of porridge and getting a large and one time we asked for porridge and never got any. Also, the kitchen eating room was stuffy and hot (maybe open the doors?)

Suzannah, United States of America

The friendly staff, particularly the lady in the bar area. Fun, helpful, friendly. Couldn't do enough for us and is a credit to The Castle Hotel.

Clodagh, United Kingdom

Newly renovated room. Friendly staff. 15 min walk to Temple Bar and across street from Hugh Lane Gallery/Writers Museum/Gate Theatre.

Constance, United States of America

We can't say enough about how great this hotel is. So much charm, while well-maintained and clean. Large rooms, modern bathrooms. Several quiet lobbies to relax or work. Check out the Vault after 9pm for live music. You'll be blown away by the ambiance and experience. My kids loved it!

Joseph, Ireland

Amazing hotel! Beautiful with a lot of character. You can tell that management takes a lot of pride in this hotel and maintain it very well. One of the favorite hotels my family has ever stayed, each member focused on different things. Beautiful comfortable feel. Spotless rooms with modern bathrooms. The Vault bar downstairs is one of the hidden gems in dublin, restricted only to hotel guests. Great musical entertainment in a chill environment. Good breakfast at the Music Shop Restaraunt. We'll definitely be staying here at our next trip to Dublin!

Joseph, Ireland

We had a brief 12 hour layover in Dublin and were so pleased with our stay at this hotel. We arrived late (after a quick 15-20 minute taxi ride from the airport) and were greeted by a very friendly and accommodating staff person. The room was beautiful and extremely comfortable and the Irish breakfast was just what we had hoped! Walking around the city was a breeze, since the hotel is in a great location. Despite all of the activities we wished we'd had time for, the hotel was a true highlight of our stay. Thank you for such a great layover experience!

Mary, United States of America

Loved that there was seperate lounge areas that we could sit and entertain visiting relatives .bar / restaurant staff by obligingly kept us supplied with food and drink. Very hospitable hotel overall.owner was happy to join for a chat too...very social.

Peter, Australia

The property was very unique and interesting , room was nice and quiet. Breakfast was nice, and sunny and bright. For dinner, there is superb dining in the vaults beneath the hotel.

Thomas, United States of America

One of our top picks in Dublin.

This elegant Georgian hotel in central Dublin is just a 2-minute walk from O' Connell Street and very close to Temple Bar. It has rooms with private bathrooms, a restaurant/bar with evening entertainment, and free Wi-Fi.

The recently renovated Castle Hotel is steeped in sophisticated Georgian style, featuring original, sweeping staircases, crystal chandeliers, antique mirrors and marble fireplaces.

Rooms at The Castle Hotel are individually designed to reflect the elegance of the building and have hairdryers, direct dial telephones, tea/coffee-making facilities and TVs.

The Castle Vaults bar/restaurant has an exposed vaulted ceiling which was part of the original 19th-century wine cellars. It has modern cuisine, a pre-theater menu and an evening menu, along with live traditional Irish music around weekends.

The Old Music Shop restaurant is in a Georgian Room overlooking Findlater's 19th-century Gothic Revival Church. It serves an all-day menu of pizza, pasta, salads and gourmet sandwiches. A pre-theater and evening menu is also available.

The hotel has its own secure private parking lot and the 747 Airlink airport shuttle stops just a 1-minute walk away. Croke Park, The Hugh Lane art Gallery, The Garden of Remembrance, The Abbey and Gate theaters and the James Joyce Cultural Centre are all a short walk away.

This is our guests' favorite part of Dublin, according to independent reviews.

Pleasant

눉Tried to park but ringing the bell at the gates and nobody answered. One we got into the lot, there were no spots. Had to wait for the reception desk man to meet us to direct us to another lot. Staff was generally bored looking and not overly friendly. Staff did not have strong English. Bathroom was nice/new, but the shower didn't drain well. No fan for ventilation. Room was stuffy and the one window wouldn't stay open.
눇The food was very good and good value for money. Restaurant staff was very good and friendly. The beds were comfortable.

눉We chose a downstairs room, but never realised that the windows were single glazed so with the constant traffic until 2am, we couldn't sleep.
눇It was so close to the shopping areas of central Dublin and the Old Georgian style of the hotel was beautiful.

“Not as good as I hoped.”

눉Don't think it was worth the almost $150/night. Room was very small and overlooked the patio of their pub. Noise only early thank goodness. Bathroom so tiny. I went to their café around 4 pm and wanted a salad with salmon which was on their whiteboard. Waitress seemed miffed and told me I had to eat from dinner menu only. Then I noticed they do not have salads on the menu?? So I left. Then I returned for breakfast which is supposed to start at 7 am. The guy said he just got there and could I give him a minute. I said fine and sat at the only table about 6 feet from the cafeteria style kitchen..directly across from him. Others were in the major dining room getting coffee served. So after 5-8 min it looked like he was done with his little tasks (the pan of food was there) but he told me few more minutes. Next thing you know about 8 people got in line to be served and I had to get behind them. He served the people. I just sensed too much attitude. The front desk staff were fine.
눇Bed was comfy and location was fairly good. Décor was nice.

눉Very uncharacteristic for Ireland it was sweltering! Our room was great but like a sauna! Having little kids in the room, the windows were typically Georgian calf height windows with no guards and one window guard was broken so we were nervous about opening them. The rest of the hotel was lovely though and wouldn't be a problem if there was no heat wave!
눇I liked the hotel and the location and the parking facilities especially arriving with children. We were also early so we checked in early. Everything is accessible.
