Everything was really nice. If we will return to Dublin we will definitely stay here. We had all the facilities needed inside the room. A big thanks to the staff from the hotel. They were super helpful and nice to us. They got us a taxi and even called a museum to let they know we will be late due to traffic.

I liked that the village was very walkable and I could even walk to and from Dublin City Centre from there ( a long walk if you are not a frequent walker). Rathgar itself had a lovely bookstore, an awesome antiques shop, conveniences and welcoming pubs. I recommend Brady's (a 10 minute walk from my guesthouse), and The 108, which was a 5 minute walk for me. Both these pubs had very good food and atmosphere.

Will we stay again?
Will we stay again? Probably but maybe only for 1-2 nights maximum, and not 5. Lets face it , dublin is expensive. You cant ask for 5star, yet it was disasspointing to not have the room cleaned half the time and that you had to ask for room cleaning ( something you only know once you are in the room ). There is no staff, it is unmanned; there is a sink in the room not in the toilet; the room is small . This we knew beforehand , so zero complaints there. The TV, only a few local channels worked, but we werent there to watch tv anyway. The ammenities were good and fair and the bed was good. Staff over the phone was helpful.

Clean and functional. Rooms are small with a small bar for hanging cloths and no closet space. They are set up to accomodate observant jews on Saterday as far as manual keys etc. Walking distance from Chabad kosher store and from the synagogue.

Away from hustle & bustle of Dublin City centre. Good local cafes, bars, restaurants & shops + short walk or bus to Terenure or Rathmines for more choice. City centre is only quick bus journey, (use a leep card to save money) away for tourist destinations & night life.

Excellent value for money, clean and comfortable and well located. A few minor issues, the numbers on the press pad on the front door were difficult to see, there was stale water in the kettle and the coffee machine and there was not enough towels. Parking was on a first come basis butI was too late to get it. All in all, this was a very pleasant experience and I would have no hesitation reccomding no 9 as a good place to stay

The location is within easy walking distance of busses to Dublin City Center. A supermarket, cafe, deli and pharmacy are also nearby. The location is quiet. It is a residential street but near to the village and a bus ride to downtown. The breakfast is not a full meal, yet, access to a small kitchenette that is actually well stocked with basics was all that was needed for a quick bite in the morning. The Fat Cat Cafe, a short walk away, is a great place for breakfast.

No frills walk up guest house, perfectly suited for travel to and through Dublin. Located on a busy street, but set back. Did not hear traffic with windows closed. Very clean and comfortable room, bed and en-suite bath. Window let in lots of light. Tea and coffee accoutrements, mini fridge. Self check-in codes sent via text. Good value. 30 mins to Dublin airport, 20 mins to the coast. Grocery store, restaurant and pub about 3 blocks away.

Location--close to Dublin City Center. Very easy to take a bus to Dublin. Freedom to come and go--access codes allow you to get in and out of the hotel and your room. You don't need to worry about a key. Neighborhood--cute neighborhood with pubs and grocery stores within walking distance. Several nights we went to the grocery store for wine and food to eat in the communal lounge.

Alan made us feel very welcome and had thought of everything to settle us in . Very good information on local restaurants, supermarkets and an easy bus ride into the centre of Dublin. Rathgar is a very safe and lovely suburb and very quiet. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this place.

The hotel is a good location and not a far walk into the town. Using the keypad to get in and out of the hotel made me feel safer staying in the hotel. The hotel staff were quick to solve any problems in the room.
