"Attractive riverside hotel... Stylish and well-run."
"Unforgivably at these rates, service can falter, veering madly from friendly-polite all the way down to rude."
"City-centre, riverside location, backing onto Temple Bar. The Art Deco interior has been lovingly restored by new owners (who include U2)."
"A handsome boutique hotel designed to reflect the aesthetic of a 1930s gentlemen's club." Full review

The Clarence is supposed to be a personal vision of the kind of hotel its owners would choose when visiting Dublin, and as such, it is besieged by music and noise, from Temple Bar partygoers in front of the hotel, to the late-night thumping of the Kitchen nightclub in the basement.
"This renovated 1852 grand old hotel is the place to sample Temple Bar's nightlife, even if your pals are too busy rocking to hang." Full review
