Loftus Hall

Stayed here with my mom and it was perfect for us! The location is fantastic — just steps away from shopping on Henry Street and about a 10-minute walk to both Temple Bar (where all the pubs are) and Smithfield (home to the Jameson Distillery and the Cobblestone Pub). **Safety Tip:** Be cautious walking alone at night — Abbey Street, just one block over, can be a bit dodgy according to locals. That said, Ubers are quite affordable and a safer option after dark. **Hotel Highlights:** - Comfy Beds: I had such a good sleep! - Great water pressure - Friendly Staff: Everyone was helpful and kind. We arrived early on our first day, totally jet-lagged, and they had a room ready for us — such a relief. - Great size TV in the room and easy to connect my Roku so we could watch movies at night. - They provide a hair dryer - Special Mention: Shoutout to bartender Sean for the lovely chats! ***Only Downsides:*** - The hotel bar is pricey — €12 for a gin & tonic (that’s $18 CAD!) was a bit shocking. But honestly, with all the great pubs in Dublin, you’ll probably be out exploring most evenings anyway. - We were happy we didn’t select the breakfast option here, I checked it out and it looked super simple and not worth it. - No mini fridge in the room. Would definitely recommend for a comfortable, well-located stay in Dublin!

I can't say enough about how wonderful our stay here at The Marlin! Thoughtful service, clean and comfortable rooms, beautiful and fun decor. This is an amazing hotel!

Wonderful experience lovely room very attentive staff highly recommend
