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

Insight Guides "Has more character than some of Dublin’s bigger, pricier places, with the first-floor Library Bar a popular spot with literary types. Situated close to Grafton Street. ."
Fodor's "Every city center needs its little oasis, and the Central's book-and-armchair-filled Library Bar—warmed by a Victorian fireplace—nicely fits the bill." Full review
Time Out "This comfortable, 187-year-old hotel is unique in that it's a prime piece of real estate (right off Dame Street near Temple Bar) that the designers haven't yet got their hands on." Full review

"Dating back to the 19th century, the mid-range Central Hotel has become a local landmark." Full review
Lonely Planet Top Choice
