24 Best Hotels in Dublin

"A Dublin institution, Brooks Hotel is an unassuming bolthole in the heart of the Creative Quarter. Beloved by regulars, Brooks has become something of an institution thanks to its welcoming staff and home-away-from-home atmosphere. The rooms are spacious and cozy with tactile furnishings in a muted palette including fluffy Foxford blankets and toiletries from The White Company. The onsite cinema is magical at Christmas and if you are lucky enough, the concierge Conor will regale you with stories and gossip from his many years at Brooks. The breakfast spread is impressive; Brooks is one of only a few hotels in Dublin that still offers a buffet to graze on before the main event. The Irish porridge with double cream and whiskey is a must." - Nicola Brady

Brooks Hotel

"This Dublin hotel offers guests a number of luxe amenities—including an on-site cinema—but for spirits fans, the whiskey tastings at the Jasmine Bar are a sure bet. Guests can sample five different drinks and learn about the history and creation of the liquor. If you’d prefer to just sip quietly after a long day of exploring, there are more than 100 whiskeys in the bar’s collection."

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 Stars — Outstanding Stay at Brooks Hotel We had a wonderful experience at the Brooks Hotel. The customer service was excellent from start to finish, and the rooms were spotless. Yara went above and beyond decorating our daughter’s room for her birthday — such a thoughtful touch! Francesca was incredibly friendly, and we really enjoyed chatting with Ruben when we dropped off our bags. The hotel’s central location made it easy to walk everywhere around Dublin. Overall, a fantastic stay. Highly recommend!

We had a truly wonderful stay at this beautiful hotel. From the moment we arrived, everything was spotless and perfectly maintained—the rooms were immaculately clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed with every detail taken care of. What really made our stay exceptional, though, was the staff. Every team member we encountered was friendly, professional, and eager to help, creating a genuinely welcoming atmosphere throughout the hotel. A special mention must go to Alex L, who went above and beyond to look after us during our stay. Their attentiveness, warm personality, and dedication made us feel so well cared for—it’s rare to find service that personal and genuine. Thanks to Alex and the rest of the team, our experience was smooth, relaxing, and memorable from start to finish. We can’t wait to come back and would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a mix of comfort, style, and outstanding service.

From the moment we arrived we loved it. The staff was extremely friendly and we were greeted with smiles every time we passed through the lobby. The room was very clean and very nice. The bed was very comfortable, the bathroom was great, and the room itself was spacious. We had the buffet breakfast and it was the best hotel breakfast we’ve ever had. They had homemade smoothies that tasted like one I’d make at home with fresh ingredients, fresh banana, wheat, and sourdough bread, a great selection of breakfast meats, scrambled as well as fried eggs (which I loved because usually hotels only serve scrambled eggs), pastries, yogurt and toppings, and so much more. The location was absolutely perfect as well. It is right in the middle of everything and everything was within reasonable walking distance. I would recommend this hotel to anyone going to Dublin!

Location is excellent. Close to lots of bars and lovely restaurants. Atmosphere is great with lovely friendly staff at reception. Hotel has been recently refurbished and is lovely and clean and fresh. Our room was lovely and well decorated and bright. Our bed was huge and comfy. Overall value was excellent. Breakfast was very tasty and plentiful. Situated in a beautiful bright room with gorgeous lights. Loved Brooks hotel.

We’ve been here before and have always really, really enjoyed our stay. Our most recent stay, following the hotel's extensive renovation, was underwhelming and kind of surprising since we expected to be blown away by the new re imagination. I may be wrong but, other than the new paint job, we didn’t notice too much of a difference…….with one exception. The bar has been rejigged, repositioned & extended which really improves the flow of the place. The downside is it’s like pulling hens teeth to get a drink and the staff totally ignore you: they have more important things to do than serve the customers. We sat at the bar and waited ten minutes to be acknowledged and an additional five minutes for us to be asked what we would like to drink. That’s a quarter of an hour…..and we were residents ?? Our room key was on the bar counter so they knew we were staying with them. Seems like that doesn’t matter. Management need to light a fire under their bar staff (all 7 of them) and educate them about who pays their salaries. Seven staff behind the bar, fifteen minutes to be recognised: do the math.

We had a fantastic stay at the Brooks Hotel. The location is spectacular, easily walkable to the necessary locations in the city. They have a pretty good restaurant and the bar is phenomenal with great bartenders. Roger the bartender was incredible friendly and made amazing cocktails. Rooms are relatively spacious and comfortable. I would recommend this place.

I stayed at the Brooks over a decade ago and finally ventured back. Wow has it grown up. Spacious rooms, elegant vibe, and the best thing is Roger who will pour you a cold Guinness and give you a warm welcome. Don’t hesitate to book this. It’s a fantastic location and really convenient to everything you want to get to. I’ve stayed at just about every hotel in Dublin city center, but I would definitely put the Brooks high on the list for future trips.

While traveling the world for business over the past 35 years, I have had the opportunity to stay at many 5-star hotels. The Brooks Hotel in Dublin rivals many of these renowned facilities.||What sets the Brooks apart is the team's devotion to a standard of customer satisfaction shared by every member. This personalized, friendly service made our stay in Dublin even more special and memorable. ||I feel compelled to point out the exemplary service Roger provides each evening in the bar and restaurant. His smile, commitment to quality service, and all-around graciousness were just amazing and appreciated!

We stayed at the Brook's Hotel in Downtown Dublin when arriving in Ireland. The location of this hotel is nearby some great restaurants and pubs and not a far walk to the Temple Bar area and river. The hotel stay included a complimentary breakfast each morning (continential or plated), dinner restaurant on site and bar lounge as well. The rooms were each different to have their own personalities. The troubles we ran into was that our rooms were not ready at check in at 3pm; but, were able to scramble and find an additional room quickly for us. The staff at the front desk were also not overly friendly nor helpful. Lastly, our bathroom door wouldn't stay open so it got very hot and the shower door was off the roller track. If you are looking for a hotel in a great location, this is a great choice! The rooms were clean, had mini fridges and water in the rooms, and hotel bar prices were fair.

I've stayed in a lot of hotels in my life, and the Brooks Hotel was one of my best experiences ever, anywhere. The room was on the small side, but it was clean, cozy, and comfortable. It had a classic look and feel, but with modern conveniences in the bathroom. The continental breakfast that came with our reservation was wonderful, with a huge assortment of delicious, quality offerings. What set our experience apart from all other hotels was the service: everyone we encountered was friendly, personable, and professional. Connor, the concierge, was especially warm and helpful ~ truly one of a kind. One more important detail: the location can't be beaten.

We recently stayed two nights. This was our least favorite, and most expensive, hotel during our holiday. When staying here, you appear to be paying a premium for the location, and nothing else. Location was excellent - just far enough from the action on Friday night that we could sleep undisturbed, but so close to great shopping and Temple Bar. Beds were comfortable. We had been upgraded to an Executive room, which was nice except for the dated and small bathroom (think Hampton Inn quality). Other travelers in our group had updated bathrooms. We all experienced a loss of hot water when showering in the morning. Breakfast was good, with plentiful options. Waitstaff was very friendly. It took a long time for hot breakfast to arrive both mornings, so give yourself extra time if you are on a schedule. Would not recommend an extended stay here, but it met our needs.

Underwhelming for sure. Based on other reviews we were excited to stay. Maybe we are spoiled and expected a better experience. But the front desk team was not warm at all. No greeting or acknowledgment of travel. Room wasn't ready at time of arrival (completely fine) but storing our bags seemed like a hassle to them. Room was fine bed was good. But overall felt it should have been better.

Location location is superb for walking to shopping food pubs dancing Liffey River several historical sites including St Patrick's Cathedral and Trinity College. Rooms are small but efficient with refrigerators Air Conditioning and breakfast is included. Staff is friendly and helpful. Quiet for sleeping. Storage for golf bags.

Do not stay in this hotel. The room was dirty. There were leftover drinks from whoever had the room the prior night. Stains on the bed. shower was dirty with hairs in it. Bed caved in towards the middle so you couldn't get comfortable, and the windows were so thin you could head people partying until after 1 AM. I've stayed in Econolodges nicer than this hotel.

I really want to give this place a 3.5, but you can't give half stars. The rooms - 2 Not the most comfortable bed or room we stayed in, and no view at all. It did the job of a room, but we had better rooms later on the trip. The cost - 1 This was the most expensive place far and beyond. Compared to what we got at other hotels for a fraction of the cost, this was robbery. Location - 5 Good location that makes walking anywhere you want to go fairly easy. Restaurant - 2 The breakfast here was ok. We didn't buy it with our room, but we still got a discount. The service was pretty terrible though. They forgot about my meal, so I wasn't served until after my mom and husband were basically done with their food. Help getting around - 5 The rooms come with an iPhone that is preloaded to help tourists around the city. It was super slick having that with us and took a lot of that stress of getting a sim card off our backs for a bit. At the end of the day though I still think the amount of money you pay to stay here does not give you enough back. 97/100

Great Hotel. Off the beaten path but close to everything you wish to visit. Not on a main street so not a lot of street traffic. If you have a car from the airport there is a parking garage right across the street. Very convenient as there is little street parking in the area and the hotel gets special rates for guest. Rooms are clean and fresh! You can smell the bleach in the sheets and bathroom. Hallways smell of Pine Sol.

The stay with Brooks Hotel was wonderful. The room and hallways we're very clean. The staff were helpful and friendly. The residence lounge was cozy and the man working, Marvin or something, was awesome. In the wee hours he made my husband and I the best hotel sandwich I've ever had. We'll be in Dublin again and will probably stay here. We didn't take advantage of it, but the pillow menu is hilarious. You can order whatever type of pillow you want. The only negative is that the huge bed could have been softer, pretty much a non-issue.

I loved staying at the Brooks. The rooms are very comfortable, the staff friendly, and the service was excellent. They have a bar and a restaurant and both were fantastic. The bar has an extensive whisky list and they also host tastings. Breakfast was fantastic and I think it had about the nicest buffet I have had. The location is also great - walking distance to Trinity, Whisky museum, national museums, and lots of great pubs. I hope to stay here the next time we are in Dublin.

Excellent hotel. Very comfortable bed. Great water pressure in the shower. Very clean hotel. Unbelievable location. Near so much to do in Dublin. The gym is small. 3 cardio machines and a rack of dumbbells. The staff is nice and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend staying here. The only knock is the small gym.

Nothing about this hotel you won't love. The location is ideal, walking distance to pretty much any place, bar or restaurant you want to go. Perfect staff, can answer any question and resolve any issues. Perfect room, spacious and comfortable with a nice bath. As you can tell, I liked it.

GOOD HOTEL, GOOD LOCATION The Brooks Hotel is an excellent boutique hotel in central Dublin. We stayed there for five nights recently and were very happy with our choice. It is within walking distance of virtually everything a visitor will want to see or do, including historical sites, museums, restaurants, and pubs. The rooms are comfortable and well-furnished. The staff are very helpful. The in-house restaurant and bar are fine, though there are lots of other restaurants nearby. Get the bed-and-breakfast package; the breakfast is quite good. Parking is available directly across the street.

We stayed at this tucked-away, beautiful hotel on Drury Street, in what I came to feel was the prettiest part of Dublin. It's very close to everything, but doesn't feel like it. The rooms were lovely: extremely clean, cozy, accented in wood, with bay windows complete with a little table and chairs overlooking the street. The soaps smelled like a wonderful blend of herbs and they left tasty chocolate mints on our pillows every night. Connor, the concierge, was very friendly and helpful, and as previous guests have noted, it's amazing how he memorized our names. There is a library downstairs, where you can relax and where we found a book on James Joyce in Dublin which helped guide some of our walks. The restaurant/bar downstairs serves a pricey breakfast, which we tried on one of our days there. The homemade bread was fantastic. They also serve fresh pineapple and croissants with Nutella. The week at Brook's was more than we were initially planning to spend when we started mapping out our trip, but definitely worth it.

Our family stayed here the night before our flight home. Public parking is immediately across the street. The staff is wonderfully helpful; Aidan even went with my husband to move our car from the wrong lot to the correct one when we asked for help. Dublin streets are beyond comprehension and even with GPS it took us a stressful 20 minutes to find the location. Aidan's help was exactly what we needed to successfully change lots. The rooms were very clean, well decorated and spacious. We were able to walk to Temple Bar in about 10 minutes and it was a safe area. Would stay here again.

If you like paper thin walls, poor service & weak internet connection -- here's your hotel! First of all, I could hear my neighbor SNORING next door. That's how thin. Don't expect an ounce of privacy. There were issues that came up during my stay -- being woken up by phone calls (after asking them not to call me). I was awoken 3 times! "Hi, you have a do not disturb sign on your door." "YES BECAUSE I'M SLEEPING!" A brown haired woman at the front desk was lovely and professional but the manager here is a total amateur. After more issues she not only didn't offer me anything (like a free snack/ water/ wine / ANYTHING -- she didn't even apologize!) Couldn't believe it. The hotel is great location wise (but NO view) but I have such a bad taste in my mouth from the service. The waiter at breakfast couldn't FATHOM that I wanted to take my food to my room. Was a huge chore (and I felt like I was inconveniencing him) just to get a to-go box! Also -- I'll never understand how in 2018 hotels don't have outlets near the bed to let you charge your phone. And again, spotty internet in 2018? Come on! Bed is comfortable! Hotel is otherwise quiet. I just don't get what happened with my stay.

We truly enjoyed our 2-night stay at the Brook's. In truth, I would rate this 4.25 star, but the superlative customer service makes up for the decimal points. PROs: Responsive emails and thorough information during booking stage. Quiet cellar-level lounging area in case of early arrival. This was key for us. Fabulous breakfast spread. Knowledgeable and personable customer service, esp the concierge Conor. Some rooms can accommodate 3 people (this was not super clear on their web site). Notes: Ask ahead about parking if you need it. The hotel has agreements with two nearby garages. All triple rooms face the back. It was def more quiet, but your view is an office bldg. (That said, I hear the front doesn't have much of a view either.) For such a nice hotel, we were surprised there were only 2 bath towels (plus smaller towels) in a triple room. Of course, you can request more, but weird, right? I thought our rate of €245 (with breakfasts) was a bit steep, considering cheap deals were available the night of for ~€150 for a double on various booking sites. However, with booking sites we couldn't guarantee a triple room, and rumour has it some of the double rooms can be small. So depending on your flexibility and appetite for "downgrades", be advised. All this said, I would stay there again!

Decent hotel in a good location in city centre Dublin. Terrible parking situation and no valet - probably the one very annoying part about the hotel. The concierge was incredibly friendly, breakfast in the morning was good and the rooms were decent sized for a city hotel. It's in quite a loud area next door to several pubs so probably not the best place to stay if you're looking to hide and take a nap either driving the day or early at night.

It took a long time for my husband and me to decide on a neighborhood and hotel in which to stay on our first trip to Dublin, and I feel like we really scored with the Brooks Hotel. All of the staff at the front desk were so kind and helpful, our room was ready right away, and they helped us get oriented to the neighborhood. And the neighborhood is really great. This is such a good location, just minutes walking from shopping areas, museums, Dame Street for the tourist busses, etc. The breakfast was fantastic, it was so refreshing to have all that fresh fruit and juices along with the cooked foods. We had tea one afternoon, it was bustling but a nice respite after a day of touring around. And one night we had a nightcap in the bar. The service was excellent. Room was clean and comfy. The only thing weird as in many hotel rooms, just have to get used to, the shower. No big whoop. If I go to Dublin again, I'm staying here again.

Great hotel. Really good breakfast. Their bar has really good prices and decent cocktails - this is not a 'happenin' bar, but good if you're looking for somewhere quieter and just want an inexpensive drink.

Really a 3.5 star, and almost a 4 in some ways. I very much liked the staff there -- they were uniformly very nice. And they did a great job arranging for a rental car for us -- grateful for their good efforts. It's in a good location south of the river. Room was very clean and comfortable. However, we had to have them come to the room three times to get the toilet working. Only one electrical socket out of three worked. The shower, oddly, had only the tiniest strip of rubber to separate it from the bathroom floor, all but insuring some flooding with each shower.

Went here for a private cinema club last week and saw Planes, Trains & Automobiles. I must say, I thoroughly enjoyed the experience of the night, although there were a few niggles. This review would be more of a 3.5 if there were such thing. It's a great little cinema - maybe seats 30 or so. Super comfortable seats, and little tables that pull out so you really feel like you're in luxury. It seems to be sponsored by Pellegrino as you get a free one when you go in and a box of popcorn. There are a few options for payment - you can either pay €10 for the movie, popcorn and drink, €15 for all that plus a cocktail, or €29 for all that plus a two course meal in their restaurant. We went for option two - the movie plus cocktail, and this is where the points would be docked. To clarify, the cocktail in question isn't actually a cocktail. It's a gin or vodka based mix with Pellegrino. There are two options I believe, and then you pick which flavour Pellegrino you want it mixed with. It's poured into a giant cocktail glass, but a cocktail it ain't. For a fiver, it's grand, there's loads of booze in it, so if you weren't fussy, that's fine, but I am a bit picky about something being billed a cocktail when in fact it isn't. There was also a slight issue with communication between reception and the bar, but that was sorted out pretty quickly. The staff were really extremely friendly and very keen to make sure any issues were sorted as quick as possible, so I wouldn't like to blame them too much. All in all, it was a lovely night and I would recommend it. I believe it happens every Thursday, but is booked out for the rest of the year, with a new schedule being put together currently for 2014.

I remember this place as being a bit low market and grubby but how wrong was i!? You come through the main door and before you stands a very nicely layed out bar, lounge area, reception and restaurant; all nicely lit and decorated. We had coffee and buns and then got to use the oh so very respectable meeting rooms, my colleagues who were staying there were full of praise for the bedrooms and the breakfasts. Deffo worth a shot!!!

I stayed here once and have come here many times as I used to get private tutoring in the bar area here. It's not bad, there is a full bar, a few items on the food menu and they serve coffee and tea. The place is nicely laid out, the tables are pretty big and it gets pretty noisy on weekends, especially in the evening time. The tea is just your average tea, and I ordered green tea a few times where they just give a cup with a tea bag so you pour it yourself. The atmosphere feels quite formal, as in candle lit dinner kind of thing and it's pretty dimly lit. Overall though, not a bad place to get a drink. The only thing I didn't like too much was the service. It's not terrible, but not great either as I didn't find the staff that friendly. The rooms are really nice, I got a single room and it came with a double bed! Everything was really clean, the decor was nice, the bathroom was quite spacious and complimentary wifi. They also serve a nice substantial breakfast! The other good thing about this hotel is the location; it's bang in the middle of the city centre, so I would recommend it for anyone visiting Dublin in general. However, it's not the cheapest. I was staying during a busy time and it was around 180 for one night, which is pretty expensive. If you have a car though and are willing to drive, there are much cheaper alternatives on the outskirts.

This review is actually for the film club here, and not the hotel proper. Since booking into a hotel 2 miles from my front door is very 2006, and I can't hope to indulge in such fun/extravagance these days! I toddled along to the film club, which shows older movies, and is on a couple of times a month, to see Planes Trains and Automobiles, a classic! No advance list is currently available but they will be doing Christmas films in December and releasing the list of films for 2014 in the next few weeks. We went with the €15 ticket which was advertised on their website, giving us a cocktail, film, popcorn and unlimited San Pelegrino drinks. However the staff seemed to be fairly unaware of the cinema and the deals offered as part of it. Initially the receptionist charged €20 until we queried it and her supervisor corrected her, and then when we went to the bar to get our cocktail (note it is only a specific one, not a choice) the bar staff did not know about the deal at all and tried to charge us for the drinks, again, until a manager spoke to them. It's certainly not the staffs fault, and they were very pleasant, but less feisty women may have been left drinkless and overcharged! The cinema itself is lovely, 24 seats and very good quality visuals, I will certainly be back, and with luck the little kinks in this new venture will have been ironed out.

I would definitely recommend this hotel to someone who wants a comfortable hotel in the center of town. The decor is tasteful, beds comfortable and we got a fairly reasonable rate. Loved that it was close to the Temple Bar area, and even on the street there were yummy mod coffee bars and houseware stores.

My mom and I were on a quick overnight in Dublin before we made our way to Co. Mayo the next day, so we hadn't planned a long stay in the hotel. Check-in was quick and efficient. We were greeted warmly and it made us feel welcome after a long day of traveling. The room itself was relatively large, as was the bathroom (a huge plus for two women traveling together!). The shower was wonderful but the hairdryer was a total miss (some weird contraption on the wall that barely blew anything out but weak hot air). The location was fantastic! We were able to walk to the Temple Bar area in a matter of 10 minutes without a problem for a pub crawl we went on that night. With that being said, we arrived back at the hotel late at night, pretty drunk. Admittedly we'd had too much of a good time and it was pretty evident when we called down for room service. Unfortunately the beer got the better of us because we were a fit of giggles. The room service attendant on the other line waiting for our order was not impressed or amused and asked us to call back. We never did; he seemed more annoyed than understanding (we're in Ireland after all, surely you've dealt with drunks before?!). At breakfast the next morning, we had to flag down a server for coffee and toast, which was a little unnerving considering that everyone else had been served with toast and coffee except us. There was also something clumpy in the cream at the table, so I wasn't able to enjoy coffee at all that morning (bummer). Check out was good, with a very sweet front desk clerk who patiently explained our bill and offered to hold our luggage during breakfast. She also was helpful in calling a cab for us to the rental car location. I would probably stay at Brooks again when back in Dublin, based on the location alone. I wish we'd had more time at the hotel to really enjoy everything else, but alas, our journey kept us moving and shaking

My family stayed here, so this place was our home base! We ordered drinks from the bar, but it took quite a while to get anyone's attention. That was frustrating, especially since the bar appeared over staffed. One night, we did a whiskey tasting. My uncle really enjoyed it, and it was a good experience overall, but lack luster as well. I did discover my affinity for Midleton whiskey though - so that's a win! The hotel itself was lovely and quite nice! The location is perfect on Drury Street, and the rooms are well kept. I'd recommend that visitors stay here in the future.

Stayed here for one night, great location, well appointed rooms, nice staff. Connor was the concierge and he was so helpful, funny and friendly. He remembered my name each time he saw me and always asked if there was anything we needed. I would definitely stay here again based on the convenient, central location... and Connor!

This is the place four us when we want a quiet drink after dinner when we are in town. Its not the cheapest place for a drink, but its comfortable and you can have a conversation without shouting. The cocktails are usually decent, and they have a large selection of posh expensive whiskey for the boys.

We stayed in the Brooks in 2007 after reading excellent reviews on the internet, and were not disappointed! Very clean and well-presented, with friendly helpful staff, nothing is too much trouble for them. Excellent location - central to everything, 5 minutes walk from Temple Bar and Grafton Street, yet tucked down a little side street so it's quiet and you get a good nights sleep. They had made a mistake with our booking when we arrived, but this was sorted out very quickly and they upgraded us to a superior room at no extra cost to make up for it - very impressive! Massive comfy beds and clean bathrooms, and an amazing breakfast in the morning- everything from fruits to pastries and yogurts, cereals, and a full Irish cooked breakfast. Our room was turned down and cleaned every night with chocolates on the pillows and new toiletries and towels. It can be fairly expensive, but if you shop around you can find some good deals on the internet - I think we paid 66 euros a night each, including breakfast, which was good value considering the level of service we recieved. We'd definitely stay there again.

This was our first stay in Dublin, and this is one of the best hotels we have ever stopped in anywhere. The staff were very friendly, and nothing was too much trouble. The room was clean, spacious, and the beds were VERY comfortable. Ideal location, just on a side street away from all of the noise, yet close to all the attractions. Excellent Hotel - 10/10 !!!

Brooks is a wonderful boutique hotel well placed in Dublin. Fine comfy beds and lovely bath but that is NOTING compares to Conner, Fiona, Barbara and the rest of the team here! Having flown in from California, jet-lagged and a little punchy, we got to the Brooks about 8 am knowing our rooms wouldn't be ready but hoping we could leave our bags while we explores the city and tried to push through our fatigue and get on Dublin time! Connor knew our names in 30 seconds flat! He and Fiona set us up in their gym facility to freshen up and change clothes. Kept Our bags under lock and key AND went over a map of the city to point out high-lights and give us tips and tricks of making the most of the time here! We explored until 6 pm...making our way back to Find Barbara ready with our rooms- bags already placed inside ready for a well earned shower before we crashed! 30 or so hours up straight will do that to a girl! ;) Bottom line is if you are coming to Dublin for 1 night or 10 if you are lucky....do yourself a favor and make Brooks Hotel your home away from home! You won't be sorry! Oh and give Connor and the gang a hug! They will be your first of MANY new friends to make in Dublin!!

A lovely hotel with superb deco! I really enjoyed a stay here, and we were made feel very special from the moment we entered. Lovely comfy bed and plush furniture. The breakfast was nice, and of a good quality. Oh and OF COURSE, it is near enough the Asia market, so what not to love ;)

Love this hotel! Breakfast is amazing and the rooms are super comfortable! They really go above and beyond! I was sick with food poisoning they arranged for me to see a dr within the hour and for me to go to the hospital for fluids! Literally a life saver! I couldn't ask for more I would definitely stay here again!

This hotel was a very pleasant surprise. Here are some of the things we liked about it: 1. The location was near to many historical and shopping locations. 2. Greeting by Conor ... and all subsequent contacts were excellent. If you had a question about anything in Dublin, he was the person to ask. Great concierge! 3. The breakfast servers were all unfailingly polite and efficient. 4. The housekeeping staff did an excellent job. We were particularly impressed with Tatiana's work. Clearly the housekeeping manager was doing a great job, as we often met her as she came by to double-check the cleaning staff's work. 5. Of major import to us: the hotel rooms were well-insulated. We never heard street noise or other guests and were able to sleep soundly each of the 8 nights we were there. 6. The pre-paid breakfast was well worth the extra expense: the variety of food options impressed and pleased me. The "Full Irish" was a substantial and delicious menu item. 7. A few minor complaints: the front desk staff were polite when addressed, but often seemed too busy to acknowledge your presence. Some of the room furnishings are beginning to show excessive wear. 8. Another positive: Internet service at the hotel was free, and unlike many major US hotel chains, worked flawlessly throughout many locations in the hotel. 9. The resident's lounge in the basement was really furnished very stylishly and confortably. We used it several times. Overall, this is a world class hotel!

Just to clarify: I'm reviewing the bar/restaurant part rather than the hotel part of this establishment. This is a plush bar with low leather chairs and wooden tables. It is probably one of the few places in Dublin that is nearly always guranateed to be quiet, and to always have seating room. Consequently, it's a good place to go when you either want to be on your own, or want a proper chat with some friends without any bar noise to interrupt it. The service is delightful- both prompt and charming, but not so much as to be pushy. They have an extensive wine list, make great cocktails, and have the biggest whisk(e)y selection I've seen in Dublin. The staff, (as should be expected?) know their alcohol and can answer questions if you have any. Drinks come with a complimentary bowl of mixed nuts, however they are significantly more expensive than elsewhere. That said, the service and environment make it worthwhile.

Clean modern boutique hotel situated a few steps from the (quiet end of) Temple Bar. Dining, bar, and common space flows from the front desk, which captures the hospitality of Ireland. Great service and breakfast. We'd stay no where else.

Very nice boutique hotel well located in Dublin City close to Trinity College, Grafton Street and Temple Bar. From the moment I walked in the door, the service was first class. Connor, the head Concierge is attentive and on top of everything. He can call you a taxi, get you a tour guide or driver and recommend a great restaurant or anything else you need. All of the staff behind the desk are friendly and attentive. The rooms are nicely appointed and well cared for. The beds are a little on the firm side though. Price is very reasonable for such great service, location, and facilities.

So one of the girlies arranged our girlie xmas party here. It's old school sweet and the staff are really great however the dinner failed on every level for me as it was dry and lacked any tasty tang......I didn't even order the Turkey! I'd certainly use the bar as a meeting point for a starter drink. Oh the car park couldn't be closer which is great if you're out and about, taking a break from the sauce!

I left 3 items of clothing in the closet (ugh) and they promptly shipped them to me in the U.S. I thought it was so nice that they helped track them down from housekeeping and sent them to me so quickly! Regardless, this place deserves 5 stars. The front desk was very welcoming and helpful with tourist suggestions and the room was beautiful. Hope I get to return some day!

Some of the staff are extremely friendly and helpful - Aidan in particular. The location is great; right in the heart of Dublin. I'm rating this 3 stars however, because the rooms are quite small and the bed was very hard and uncomfortable. In addition, the bathroom door squeaks when opening (which continuously woke my husband up), the sink drain clogs (so you have to watch water flow carefully), and when in the shower, the curtain tends to cling to you (making it very difficult to actually shower!). So, overall, staff is friendly, food is okay, and the accommodations are fair. I should also note that I AM from America and everything is bigger over there, which may be one of the reasons why I feel the rooms are small!

My daughter, Dad & I stayed here for St. Patrick's day a week ago and I can't say enough great things about this hotel. The location is absolutely perfect, right in the heart of the city. The staff were amazingly friendly & helpful. We had rented a car & were driving in from the airport in the morning, but because of the crowds & parade for St. Patrick's day, it proved to be quite a stressful mess due to barricades. Mr. O'Reilly literally spent 30-40 minutes on the phone with me talking me in every step of the way, then met us at the parking garage 2 blocks away to help us carry our luggage back to the hotel. He was my hero! And I have to give a shout out to Michael as well who was funny & incredibly helpful as well!! We will definitely be staying here when we return to Dublin, which we most definitely will!!! This was a fabulous trip & I highly recommend this hotel!!!

Couldn't imagine staying in Dublin and not staying at the Brook's Hotel. Great staff from your check-in to your bartenders. Location is fantastic. Quiet street just a block from everything you love about Dublin.
