Michelin Guide "Unique house with retro styling, personally run by hospitable couple."
Frommer's "A discreet plaque outside an elegant gate on a tiny side street is your only clue that what lies beyond is an outstanding guesthouse." Full review
Concierge "What a guesthouse—Number 31 marries a handsome Georgian town house with a mews... inked by a delightful urban garden."
Fodor's "Whether your lodging style is sublime Georgian elegance or serene cool modern, this one-in-a-million guesthouse, a short walk from St. Stephen's Green, serves up both." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Part Georgian town house, part groovy seventies crash pad, it's a secluded yet popular 20-room boutique B&B just off St. Stephen's Green." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Reputedly the most stylish guesthouse in the city, this elegant Georgian house is more of a boutique hotel than a B&B, with individually decorated, luxurious bedrooms."
Time Out "Set in one of the city's most fashionable locales, this unique guesthouse is a real find, combining modern design with an almost rural tranquillity." Full review

Afar Magazine "Homey food served in a sunlit dining room is part of what makes Number 31 feel less like a hotel and more like the pied-à-terre you’ve always dreamed of." 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

"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
