Located right in front of the Ha'penny Bridge, the hotel is walking distance to many amazing eateries and attractions. The room is well-equipped with a small kitchen, and I requested for a room with washer/dryer, which was really helpful for long travels. There is also a guest laundry if there is no washer in your room. Small gym in the hotel but it was more than sufficient.
Response from Property: Thanks Swee for spending some time with us and for leaving such a kind review here. We are thrilled that you valued the apartment, the amenities and the location. We loved hosting you and the whole team hopes to welcome you back very soon! Ruben - Head Host

Surpassed expectations, will stay here again next time in Dublin for sure.
Bed very comfortable, shower is nice, very clean and spacious. Coffee shop in the lobby is convenient and they have a laundry room but we didn’t use it.
Nice location, pretty central.

After an exhausting eleven hour flight from Los Angeles, I arrived at the Dublin Zanzibar Locke hotel to be greeted by a warm, friendly, helpful reception. I knew I'd love the location because it's so centrally located but I was pleasantly surprised at how much I liked the hotel. It's the people. Zanzibar's staff is top-notch, always there to help and always with good humor and a smile. If I'm lucky enough to travel to Dublin again, I'll definitely book at Zanzibar.
Response from Property: Thank you G.C for taking some time to share your experience with us. We are happy to know the team could make such a warm welcoming atmosphere and help with all that you needed during your stay. We are also glad to know that you found our location to be the ideal spot for all your plans around the city, The whole team loved hosting you and we are looking forward to welcoming you again very soon!!

Located in the heart of Dublin, this is a great option esp during off peak season I’d reckon when rates are better.
Grateful to the staff in Zanzibar Locke, and Trip.com, who helped me with my booking when I had to make changes to my travel plans.

Check in was smooth and staff was friendly. It is an apart hotel, but rooms aren't cleaned unless you explicitly ask for it, or just once a week otherwise. This was a surprise considering the cost. The rooms are cozy, but on the darker side. Ground floor rooms would benefit with additional artificial lighting.
Response from Property: Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us your review. As an aparthotel, our cleaning business model differ from standard hotels, and we hope that our Front Desk and Housekeeping teams could address any request you had. In regard of the lighting in the ground floor, we really appreciate your feedback, and we will pass your comments to our design team now. Thank you so much for staying with us, and we hope to see you again soon.Kind regards,Javier Martin - AGM

I always come here and stay during my business trip. All they are really kind and friendly!!
Also it has best location ever in Dublin!!
Gym has enough things to work out I love here!!
Right in front of the river! Walk along the river and sometimes you could go for running. Also, they have a group exercise class here. If you can, you should try it.
All the rooms are clean and have self laundry mat. You will love it. But you should book here in advance

Very nice boutique apartment rooms, very clean and great shower. Staff were friendly when checking in. No bar downstairs closed as I think it was being turned into a working space but no a problem as it’s right on the door step of the temple bar district. Would definitely stay again.
