We booked the Locke studio and it was perfect for our 3 day stay. From the start the whole design of the lobby and cafe is beautiful. The employees are all so friendly! We got there early and they let us keep our luggage there while we strolled around the city waiting for our check in. It is across the bridge from the Temple neighborhood craziness yet far enough so you don’t hear it lol. It is a perfect location. Even a local told us we made a perfect choice in Dublin.

This hotel is on Upper O'Connell. The Dublin Express 782, from the airport, stops at Ashton Quay, across the river. It's a short walk to the Luas tram, buy a ticket at the machine, then just up 2 stops to right in front of the hotel
The buffet breakfast is great. Not just a continental, it has eggs, bacon, sausages, and hashbrowns, besides the more standard fare.
The rooms were very quiet. Our room eas quite large! We rarely heard any noise at all. The staff was great, super helpful and polite...

This was our second time staying at the Arlington Hotel. It is a lovely historic hotel with a restaurant and bar on site. As well as live music nightly for entertainment. The rooms are comfortable and cozy, with all of your basic needs met. The staff is always smiling, very kind, knowledgable and helpful. The location cannot be beat, centrally located within walking distance to many attractions, pubs, restaurants, churches, parks and so on. The hotel is priced fairly. The train and bus station...

Close proximity to airport but still nestled in the city with good transportation options. Highly recommended restaurant within the hotel ‘Botanical’ overall very pleasant experience.

Very much enjoyed this property, excellent location, friendly staff.
The room overall was clean but the floor of the room wasn't, other than that, very happy.

Friendly staff. Close to many restaurants, bars & shops. Darkey Kelley which has the most amazing Guinness Stew in my opinion, was right next door. They had attentive staff, tasty food and live music. Beds were comfortable and because of the location we had a very quiet nights sleep. Definitely would book again.

I loved staying here - the location was excellent, the pods and en suite bathrooms were great (10 second limit on water each push notwithstanding, but you make it work), the common areas and activities made it so easy to make friends. I got coffee or a beer from the lounge area every day - it was so nice! Very sweet staff. I definitely recommend staying here especially if you're traveling solo in Dublin! You can make your stay whatever you want :)

The staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good enough—with plenty of ways to keep yourself entertained outside your room. Roommates are a matter of the draw. The location was great and very convenient for getting around on public transportation

This was my first hostel ever and i do not regret it. The staff was excelent. The heavey set irish gentleman that works the front desk during the evening was amazingly helpful. He truelly appeared to enjoy helping guest, myself included, and was very knowledgeable. He saw my last name had irish heritage and went into detail about the history of my family name and other irish families that had ties to mine. Would stay here if I am ever in dublin again.
