Fodor's "Classic 1930s American movies seem to have been the inspiration for the interior of this medium-size hotel in the heart of Temple Bar." Full review
Lonely Planet "Behind the Victorian facade, the lobby is a faithful re-creation of a 1930s hotel, complete with dark-wood floors, deep-red leather Chesterfield couches and heavy velvet drapes." Full review

"The 64-room Paramount Hotel is located in the popular Temple Bar area, the "cultural quarter" of Dublin known for its nightlife." Full review
Time Out "You'd never guess it from sitting in the Turk's Head bar on a Saturday night, but this hotel is something of a hidden gem." Full review
Star Service "With a discreet entrance tucked onto the side street, this voguish art-deco hotel occupies a rehabilitated historic building a block north of Dublin Castle and the city hall." Full review

As all rooms are graded standard, guests requesting corner rooms and larger front-facing rooms get the best proportions.

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

"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

"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

"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
