to get started.

The receptionist was lovely and took on board my request for an early breakfast & onsite parking.

Elaine, Ireland

The front "desk" staff was fabulous...patient with my MANY questions and very helpful. Breakfast was substantial enough to start off the day.

Peggy, United States of America

One of the worst nights sleep we have had since i was in Roads in Greece , woke at least 20 times ,sweating Humid ,

Des, United Kingdom

The neighborhood was very nice, felt safe, and was easy to get to. The airport coach stopped very close by (2ish blocks). The woman at the desk was friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean, and it was quiet. It took just a few minutes by taxi to get home after we went out in town.

Stephanie, United States of America

The staff were so friendly and helpful, from before our arrival (when we needed to inform them of some minor changes), through our overnight stay and on departure. They directed us to places of interest, selected a quieter room for us as they knew it was our honeymoon (one of the 'chalet' rooms behind the main hotel - recommended!) and stored our luggage for the day as we were not departing from Dublin for a few hours after checkout. The breakfast was plentiful and tasty and the rooms spotlessly clean. Excellent value for money and within easy reach of central Dublin. We walked to Grafton Street in 20 minutes, but a direct bus passes the door of the hotel.

Fiona, United Kingdom

Location close to everything yet out of the beaten tourist track, well connected and close to wonderful Grand Canal. Starbucks 2 min away and enough selections of restaurants and a nice pub 4 min away at the end of the street.

Anna, Iceland

Very helpful staff, breakfast was lovely , good location

Allyson, United Kingdom

An old Georgian House B&B in a central location. Very good as a place to overnight at a reasonable price. Not, however, a destination accomodation.

Kevin, Ireland

The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, the breakfasts were lovely and the neighbourhood was really nice.

Judy, United Kingdom

Right side of bed reading lamp was faulty, replaced it with other. No shelf in shower for toiletries etc Alarm not working, not heard and dining staff less than helpful. Receptionists more than helpful and very pleasant,

Olivia, Ireland

One of our top picks in Dublin.

In central Dublin, the Waterloo Lodge has rooms with free Wi-Fi and hearty, full Irish breakfasts. The Aviva Stadium is a 10-minute walk from the lodge, and St. Stephen’s Green is a 15-minute walk away.

The colorful and cozily furnished rooms all include a private bathroom with hairdryers. There is a TV, along with free tea and coffee facilities in each room.

The Dublin Airport bus stop is nearby to the hotel. Waterloo Lodge is a 20-minute walk from Trinity College and lively Temple Bar district.

눉The room was quite small, though it suited our purposes fine. We were disappointed that it was so basic, though. The pictures made it look more romantic and quaint than it was. It was really just your basic budget hotel, but in a good neighborhood. That made it a bit more pricey than it needed to be (I thought I was "splurging" a bit when I booked, and chose it over a cheaper place). That said, it was an alright stay.
눇The neighborhood was very nice, felt safe, and was easy to get to. The airport coach stopped very close by (2ish blocks). The woman at the desk was friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean, and it was quiet. It took just a few minutes by taxi to get home after we went out in town.
