Dublin Hostels

3 friends and I from Glasgow stayed at the Dawson for 1 night. We really enjoyed our time here, had a great stay! Staff and other residents were very friendly and accommodating, and the room/beds were lovely and very clean. Location is very central handy for various sites and we would definitely come back again

I stayed in a 4 bed mixed dormitory. Beds were very clean, and there waa enough space to store my travel belongings. There was no noise from other rooms, and the shower and toilet inside the room was clean and functional too. 15 to 20 minute walk to Temple Bar, another 10 minute from Temple Bar to Trinity Collegr. Had no problem walking from the accomodation to other points of interests in Dublin. Overall, a great value for travellers. Tip: Do reserve breakfast. The bread is warm if you go in the opening hour, and you can eat enough to last for both breakfast AND lunch while walking all day. Save the lunch budget for better dinner.

I had a great stay at Clink i lar. I stayed just one night, and it was perfect. I was able to rent a locker before check in (5€ for 4h). Check in was really easy. I had a double room with a stunning view of Dublin. The room was clean, and I had a private bathroom which was clean too. The bed was very comfortable. I had breakfast there and they had a buffet with plenty of options. The staff was very friendly, and very helpful. Great stay, great location, great price!

Hostels around the world need to take note of what a real hostel is — and that's Jacobs Inn Hostel in Dublin. Located in the center of Dublin and easy to locate, you're greeted with friendly, warm staff who can help you with anything you need. Advice on landmarks, restaurants, events, they have an answer. The commons area is packed full of people working, socializing or just simply relaxing. Music is not too loud so communicating and working is made easy. It's very atmospheric and it's a great place to make new friends on your travels. It's amazing decorated and their bar/dining area is incredible. Breakfast is served and you're offered a good variety to choose from. The rooms, or pods, are clean, well-maintained and the bathrooms are neat. You're afforded privacy in a modern fashion.

Yo, about the place – you've got city buses from the airport to the hostel and back to the city centre. The hostel vibes in a cool church building, and bonus, there's a café inside – major lifesaver! The 4-person room was decent, clean, and gave off private vibes. Loved that they split the ladies' and dudes' rooms – felt secure, you know? But let's talk about the showers – major letdown. Curtains and zero control over the temperature. Too hot and not cool. Bathrooms were alright, but morning cleanup? Seriously, that's when everyone needs it most! Despite the shower drama, everything else was solid. I'd say give it a shot! 🌟 On the flip side, those showers though – curtains, low water pressure, and zero temp control. Not a fan.

Great little hostel in the heart of Dublin with fantastic staff. We stayed in a dorm for 4 with ensuite and it was just as good and comfortable as a hotel for a lot less money. Will stay here again when we are next in Dublin. Really appreciated the free tea and coffee in the kitchens to help ourselves to. Thanks for a wonderful stay.

GROUPS BEWARE of strick/completely unfair cancelation policies. If your flight gets canceled or you are unable to travel, you'll loose ALL the amount paid!!! No credit for next stay, discount, or whatever. You snooze, you loose. As a school, we had booked rooms to accomodate a total of 40 students and teachers, for a whole week. Unfortunatelly we were unable to board our flight and had to pospone the trip to some weeks later from the original date. There simply were no available flights sooner for such a large group in the same airline company. We explained the situation to the hostel but they were simply uncompromising. We did not ask for a refund and were willing to loose some of the money paid for the first nights. All we wanted was that some credit could be directed to the new dates, in order to reduce our losses a bit. We did not expect that the management would be completely unwilling to help, charging us for the whole stay, INCLUDING the meals we did not have. We travel around the world with our students and we look for partners we can rely on, and that are willing to help us, when we are abroad. This was simply not the case, quite the opposite. If you are traveling with a large group, for a long stay, with a quite an expensive bill, check your booking conditions twice, make sure your flight does not get canceled or you'll loose it all.

Good Hostel for a few nights, it was my first time staying at a hostel in a dorm w others. The beds are very comfortable und you really have your orivacy, which I loved. I didnt know that you have to bring your own towels so I bought one, I dont know if they provide them I did not ask. Also I did not find any lockers but I did not ask bc I didnt had a lot of stuff and I was out most of the time. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Location is great just a 5 Min walk from O'connell St. Didnt check out the dining or game room nor the garden. My room was on 3rd floor and the shower and bathroom on the 2nd, but that didnt brother me. The shower and the room were very clean and not busy at all while I was there. WiFi worked fine and the beds are soooo comfy would stay there again but only for a few days, if I be in Dublin for a week or long er I would choose a hotel but that is just me because I am not the hostel type. If you are you will love it

I've stayed in a few hostels around Dublin and this is the best. I stayed 5 nights in August. There is complimentary breakfast with lots of options. The staff are kind and helpful and there is cleaning through out the day. You do not see in the photos but the room I was in had curtains around each bed for some privacy. The beds have power sockets to keep your devices powered up which is something all travellers must think about. There are shelves and lots of extra power sockets in the rooms too. I have stayed in other hostels where is almost conflict over two few powers sockets but no issue here, more than enough for all! Each bed had a cage to lock your belonging. I had a padlock or reception will sell to you. The best part is the location, you cannot be more central in Dublin. The Guinness in the bar downstairs is 5.50 euro which for Dublin you would struggle to find a cheaper pint!!
