Zanzibar Locke, Ha'penny Bridge

I’ve stayed here the last 2 years in a row for TradFest. This place is simply the BEST place to stay in Dublin! The location cannot be beat, it is absolutely perfect, close to everything but away from the rat race. It’s super quiet, the rooms are large and well equipped with a sitting area and kitchen, it’s very clean, and the staff are so friendly, welcoming, and helpful. I cannot recommend this place enough, although I want it to be my own little secret!

Stayed for a solo trip. Couldn’t have asked for a better or more safe environment to have stayed at for a solo trip. It’s very central, everything within a 5-10 minute walk, many local bus stops. The rooms are clean, well kept and comfortable living spaces. Great bed, bathroom and kitchen. The food and drink at the restaurant is lovely and the staff are very attentive and kind. The hotel is very safe, being in a central area of the city and being solo - it’s always nice to feel so safe in your hotel and they exceeded my expectations of that. I’d come back here every time if visiting Dublin.

Stayed over the Christmas/New year for 10 nights in the one bedroom suite. The space itself was perfect for my solo trip. Everything was great apart from the bed which needs a new mattress and the sound proofing as a crack in the wall made it very easy to hear noises quite clearly from the adjacent room. The plumbing also had some issues and the pipes had a really loud groaning to it when using the bathroom sink. Service from the reception staff was excellent. I requested a quieter room ahead of time and was graciously placed in a room more on the interior of the property. Still, you can hear the seagulls/birds constantly which wasnt so much of an issue for me. However there was a night a nearby club played extremely loud music into the late hours and made it impossible to sleep. The location was very convenient for access to the Temple Bar/Trinity College/O’Connell street areas with most areas just a 5-30 minute walk away

Well situated in Dublin. Staff were lovely, friendly and happy to help with anything. Studio room modern, bed very comfortable. Toiletries dispensers hard to use in their rack, best to remove and keep on the shower shelf. Would definitely recommend to stay here

I’m staying here right now and i love It. The rooms are spacious with comfy beds. Staff are great! The restaurant is great! I love The minimalistic space. It’s cute and refreshing. I’ve stayed at their London and Berlin locations 10/10 everytime!

Just perfect. Rooms are nice and cosy af. They have everything you could ask for in there. A whole kitchen and stuff. Staff is super friendly and they offer a laundry service and also there is a gym. What would u want more? I guess for Dublin Standards it's also not too expensive :) I think it depends on the room but we had no real "view" since our window was blurred but I don't care for that. If u are in Dublin go outside yourself.

stayed at the Zanzibar over the Thanksgiving holiday after flying in from the U.S. and planning to spend a few days in Dublin. The front desk kindly allowed me to check in early (for an additional fee), which I appreciated. However, upon arriving in my room—located on the back side of the building—I discovered that there was massive construction taking place directly outside my window. This was not light maintenance. It involved jackhammering, power saws, metal pipes being dropped, and multiple power tools running simultaneously. The work started at 7:00 a.m. sharp and continued until 7:00 p.m. every single day of my stay. For someone arriving jet-lagged and expecting a relaxing, premium experience, this made the stay extremely uncomfortable. I paid a premium rate for my room, and this level of noise—and the fact that it was literally right outside the window—was absolutely not reflective of the price point or the expectations set by the hotel. I emailed hotel management and even sent videos documenting the noise beginning at 7:00 a.m., yet I have received zero response. Overall, while the staff were polite, the lack of communication from management and the failure to disclose such significant construction made the experience incredibly disappointing. I would not have booked this property had I known.

Stayed here just for one night when visiting dublin centre. They let us have room before checkin time which was great, very modern inside with an industrial feel in the rooms. Room was'nt massive, but has everything you need. Location is great for easy access to the nightlife, but is very secure in the evening. The room was totally silient over night. It is fairly expensive per night, but aligned with most other hotels around there.
