Room 402 got 8 points, as unfortunately the Luas went by most of the time, so I was optimizing by closing the left window
Really good
I had a wonderful stay! The hotel is perfectly located — right in the centre, close to everything, yet surprisingly quiet and peaceful. The room was spotless, and the entire place felt very clean and well maintained. The staff were friendly, helpful, and really made me feel welcome. I’d definitely stay here again!
Rooms were small-ish but comfortable. Wash cloths would be nice, as would real tea cups and a spoon or two.
clean facilities and room, great bed and linens
Our room was clean and well equipped, Stacey on Reception was first class and very helpful.
We have stayed at many other Motel Ones and they are our go to hotel when in Europe. Always a convenient location to public transit and in our experience very walkable locations, Dublin was no exception. Looking forward to our next visit.
Modern hotel in a convenient location to Temple Bar but much more peaceful. Great looking and comfortable Did not eat or drink there but looked very nice. Very comfortable bed and pillows. I was a bit surprised that a king room was so small but nicely appointed and fine for an overnight to explore the area. Seemed pricey for such .
Good service no water pressure in shower what so ever.
We stayed for one night at the beginning of October. A friendly welcome on arrival and rooms ready to check into at 10am rather than the proposed 3pm. Rooms spotlessly clean, nicely decorated and had everything you would need for a comfortable stay. Toiletries provided, tea and coffee making facilities and a hairdryer were available in the room. Hotel is approx 5 minute walk to temple bar. Would definitely recommend this hotel and would certainly stay again if visiting. Option of leaving bags at the hotel after checkout was also available.
We stayed here for my husbands 30th. Staff were really friendly and we got given a bottle of prosecco on arrival for his birthday. Room was as described, good location and clean and tidy.
Very clean, very friendly hotel, I would recommend anyone to stay, all staff very helpful, it was my 60 birthday present from my 2 daughters and there partners , they stayed as well along with myself and partner, we all had a great stay at the hotel, and a fantastic time in Dublin.
Very clean and very professional staff
Highly recommended by a frequent traveler! This is our favorite hotel when we are in Dublin for events. Very friendly and welcoming staff, quiet and comfortable rooms, amazing bar staff and an excellent location. And the icing on the cake: we very often get a late check out for free. What else could one expect! We are already looking forward to our next visit ;-)
The hospitality of your staff, specifically CeCelia, Francisco, Fahad, Yousuf and Miguel, was above and beyond. What an outstanding team! Every interaction reflected genuine care and professionalism, truly making our stay a memorable one! We spent plenty of time in the lobby bar during our stay for the Steeler vs. Viking football game.The members of your staff truly set the standard for hospitality,. It is obvious how much they enjoy serving their guests. JoAnna at the front desk was brilliant helping us with a hiccup in our reservation, and dedicated to making us satisfied.
Great location. Very comfortable quiet rooms. Helpful staff. Would definitely recommend this hotel.
Nice hotel, good location and friendly staff
It's always a pleasant experience to stay at Motel One in Dublin. The reception staff as well as the staff in the breakfast room are so friendly and welcoming.
Your entire staff was very polite, helpful and professional. That includes the bartenders and servers.Thank you for the wonderful hospitality!! I would recommend you anyone coming to Dublin!
Excellent hotel, the staff were so friendly and accommodating. Extra thanks to the hotel manager Brian who really helped out and made our stay great!
Lovely hotel - ideal for overnight stay. Clean and tidy. Great location. Also good competitive prices for Dublin.
Very small rooms; few amenities (only 2 paper cups, no water which we had in every hotel we stayed in Ireland; only 1 chair). Location was excellent. Price of the room seemed inflated though which influenced scoring.
Excellent location in Dublin; right on tram line that takes you to both main train stations; walking distance to Temple Bar area, Trinity College and lots of restaurants, pubs and shopping.
Perfect located, very friendly and helpful stuff, nice and big rooms - everytime in Dublin again.
Breakfast options should vary slightly. I don’t believe the hotel has a restaurant, but the breakfast could stand to have a little bit more variety on offer. Our stay was comfortable and quiet, very centrally located, and staff was friendly. It was more pricey than normal rates, but that is to be expected when it is a big weekend for Dublin due to the NFL football game.
Great location with friendly staff. Nice room with good facilities. Very nice bar area for drinks and relaxing.
Only negative was that we pre booked a Taxi the night before through the Front Desk only to find in the morning that it had not been order. by the time we got a new one order, we missed our train and had to purchase new tickets. when we returned for 1 more night stay, we told the Front Desk what it had cost us, no compensation was offered.
beautiful room, Within walking distance to all that we wanted to see, Great breakfast.
Hotel was very clean and staff was very helpful and accommodating. hotel had everything we needed, was a great location for sight seeing and entertainment.
Top notch property. Charming decoration and quiet room facing a sun-lit ventilation shaft that made it feel quite private and restful. Loved the James Joyce theme. Breakfast of continental cold meats and cheese with three coffee machines was simple way to start the day. Would stay again and will recommend to friends.
We enjoyed our stay at Motel One. Reception staff were excellent and most helpful.Rooms were clean and adequate. Breakfast was very good. Motel in an excellent and central location. Would stay there again if visiting Dublin.Thank you
The staff was very good to us We stayed for two weeks so we interacted frequently The most helpful were: Cecelia, Fahad, Yusuf, Megan, Miguel and Matheus were the most charming people imaginable. The hotel should offer small refrigerators for those staying there for an extended amount of time!
Clean and comfortable room with good service. Reception staff were good with special mention to Stacy who was very kind and helpful.
Very friendly staff, clean rooms, a bit over-priced continental breakfast. You could raise the price of the rooms by 15 per night and include the breakfast and you would win. some people would still opt to eat elsewhere, and those who do eat will not go into sticker shock but instead see it as a good value that it's included. Also, and we may have missed this somewhere in the booking literature, it would have been nice to have know the parking situation. We were traveling from outside of Ireland, new to the sity, and it was just through luck we happened on the parking garage connected to the shopping mall.
From the moment we arrived to the moment we left the staff looked after us and were very welcoming
Room is small but tidy and has all the amenities. Parking is extremely expensive and there's no hot breakfast. Staff was very nice every step of the way.
Room could be bigger but location was spot on. Staff only wanted to help you. We loved our stay.
Very good location, had everything I needed
Wonderful experience overall. Clean, central location, friendly staff. I would have loved to stay longer but the price was prohibitive (though in line with the other hotels in the city).
Great location; close to everything restaurants, shopping, landmarks, and the hop on hop off bus. Rooms are small but comfortable. The lobby is spacious- lots of places to sit and read or chat. 24 hr bar a plus.
Nice hotel, great location and friendly helpful staff. We had a very good experience during our stay.
The staff is great! Super friendly and attentive, specially at the bart. Front desk was super helpful as well and they took the time to explain everything. The bar looked amazing and super clean. I had two glasses of prosecco and it was the best prosecco I’ve ever had. Breakfast was delicious; the pastries were so fresh and the selection of cold food was incredible. I would definitely recommend it to my friends and family.
Great location and facilities fine for an overnight break Only issue is I was given a disabled room, which due to time constraints I couldn’t change. Otherwise all fine
This hotel is ideal situated and within walking distance to some of the best shopping Dublin has to offer. The staff in the hotel are friendly and always helpful.
Location is really good, beautiful decor, excellent breakfast and friend staff! The beds are super comfortable and for once, a hotel pillow that was comfortable!! Only thing from giving you a 10 are the bathroom towels, they are rough and not very soft.
Great service and very pleasant staff. I will return to this hotel anytime. Thanks
Well enjoyed our stay, staff very helpful. Found the mobile room key helpful for our first evening as we arrived quite late!
Only stayed for one night. Easy check in, comfortable bed and great shower. The room was nice and warm and grateful for the safe in the room. Customer care at checkout was great. Close to fantastic restaurants and pubs, I recommend this hotel.
Hi, We were very satisfied with your hotel. The quality, location, staff, everything was excellent. Thank you. I would also like to mention that your Lounge & Bar employee ‘Yusuf’ and your Reception employee ‘Mafleu’ were very attentive and friendly. I am very grateful to them for their care and assistance. I would also like to mention one issue. We came as a group, but on the first day, the air conditioning in my room was not working. The weather was particularly cold for us, and since there was no heater, I got very cold and fell ill the next day. Due to occupancy, they only changed the room the next day, and I was able to sleep without feeling cold. So, in such situations, you should keep a portable heater in your hotel as a precaution. After all, we're in Dublin, not Hawaii.. :)
Great location. No wash cloth provided. No shampoo. Body wash pump broken. I wasn’t paying attention and used my room key to open what I thought was my room. It wasn’t my room but the key opened the door anyway. Room was tiny.

Our city hotels in Dublin offer comfortable accommodation in the centre with excellent connections to public transport.

That way, you can easily visit Dublin’s attractions like EPIC The Irish Emigration Museum (Connolly station) and the National Leprechaun Museum.
Not far from the hotel, you’ll also find Dublin’s Jeanie Johnston museum: on a replica of a ship that took Irish emigrants to North America in the 19th century, history is made tangible. Further out from the hotel in Dublin, but definitely worth the trip on public transport, the former Kilmainham Gaol prison has been converted into a thought-provoking museum.
