Time Out "This is the aristocrat of Dublin's hostels. ... It has the usual mix of bunk beds, lockers and TV rooms, but adds a heady cocktail of extras like...a restaurant and an attractive (free) sauna." Full review
Let's Go "There seem to be a million hostels near Gardiner Street, but this is the one that you want to stay at." Full review

"Isaacs Hostel is a two-pearl property housed in a converted 19th-century wine vault that's within walking distance of many popular Dublin sites and is well serviced by public transportation." Full review
EuroCheapo Editor's Pick
"From the street, the Isaacs Hostel has an undeniable, ramshackle charm. Bright red trim pops against a well-worn exterior of brick and stone. The reception area is similarly attractive." Full review
The Telegraph8.0
"Isaacs does urban accommodation very well indeed: a prime location in the city centre, a quirky and historic character, and a buzzing and friendly atmosphere ensure that it stands out among Dublin hostels." Full review
Lonely PlanetTop choice
"The north-side's best hostel – hell, for atmosphere alone it's the best in town – is in a 200-year-old wine vault just around the corner from the main bus station." Full review

Time Out "The long-established Conrad, on a prominent site on the corner of St Stephen's Green, is a firm favourite among the suited, laptop-wielding types who've made Dublin the business hub that it is." Full review
Fodor's "The best thing about the ugly-on-the-outside, seven-story, redbrick and smoked-glass Conrad is the spectacular views out over the city." Full review
Travel + Leisure "A palette of soft, leafy greens dominates the rooms, with bespoke touches such as wrought iron branches on fixtures and fittings." Full review
Gayot "Warm, residential style gives this business hotel a home away from home feel."
Condé Nast Traveler ""Out of the hustle-bustle of the city" yet "a 20-minute walk from the heart of Dublin," this roughly 10-year-old property fits in with such august Georgian neighbors as the Royal Dublin Society." Full review
The Telegraph8.0
"The reassurance of a top five-star hotel brand, together with a commanding central location, a recent revamp, and excellent facilities, combines to make the Conrad a Dublin destination in its own right." Full review
Frommer's "Dublin outpost of Hilton’s high-end brand is all about the luxury. Beds in the spacious, modern guest rooms are sumptuously comfortable...feels somewhat like an American-style business hotel" Full review
Lonely PlanetTop choice
"Dublin's first truly modern international business hotel has not just kept up with the pace of change but has set the standard for other newer hotels in its class." Full review
Independent "One of the finest hotels in town. The rooms strike the perfect balance between style and comfort, with an emphasis on Irish heritage...Breakfast is a highlight, with cafetieres on every table"
