Michelin Guide "Friendly, family-owned hotel ideally situated for lively Temple Bar area."
Time Out "While the rooms won't feature on any television interior design programme, they're big and bright, and the price is very good for what you get." Full review
Lonely Planet "It's priced like a hotel, looks like a hotel, but it's still a guesthouse." Full review

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
OysterBudget
"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
