staff was really nice! The location was just perfect and I would definitely recommend everyone to book here when visiting Dublin. The tram can be a bit loud but it’s honestly not really worth the mention.
Love that we can count on great quality, comfort and location. Reception staff have always been above and beyond too
Amazing place to stay, and pet friendly :)
Only complaint is that the rooms are very small. Great location and delicious buffet breakfast!
Once again a fantastic stay at a Motel One hotel, friendly and professional staff, excellently run, ver clean with a fantastic bar and breakfast. Already booked a Motel One at a different city.
Great, friendly and helpful staff. Everything efficiently operated.
Rooms were clean, neat and service was good.
Excellent stay at Motel One Dublin! Juan at reception was incredibly friendly and helpful, and Miguel and Francisco at the bar were amazing, super welcoming. The hotel is modern, spotless, and perfectly located. Thanks to the team for making our stay so enjoyable!
Very clean and comfortable establishment.
Nice and clean hotel, only minor criticism of the room would be that when showering the water ran out of the shower tray. Very friendly and helpful staff.
I love the decor in the lounge area, and usually there is ambient background music,which makes it a very relaxing space to sit. While I love the location and the hotel, in general. I find it is a bit expensive.
Very friendly and welcoming staff who really took time and effort to make our stay even more enjoyable. Very comfortable and nicely decorated lounge and bar with excellent bartenders. Very generous and caring overall, from the girl who did our check-in (Stacy) to the hotel manager who offered us a round of drinks on the house while we were sitting in the lounge after check-out waiting for the bus to take us back to the airport. The rooms themselves also surpassed our expectations: clean, spacious and with lots of lovely details. We stayed on the sixth floor which meant we had an amazing view over the city and the hills. Will definitely be staying at Motel One again on my next visit to Dublin and will recommend it to other people.
Staff and especially the front desk crew are really nice. Great location and clean
Excellent location. Friendly efficient service, nice bar area, immaculately clean quiet room and comfy bed. Highly recommend!
From receiption/check in our stay was lovely. Staff was friendly and efficient moving us along as tired travellers. We'll be back
Central hotel in Dublin city very clean very comfortable Will definitely be back
Fantastic location, staff and hotel! Excellent experience
Comfy beds and sheets, good shower, great location! We had an issue with A/C noise and Management was prompt to help make it better for us.
The location of this hotel is perfect to visit Dublin on foot ! A special thanks to Stacy and Dane for the welcome, and to Paloma for the good addresses. We highly recommend this hotel.
Motel One was our last stop on our trip and was an excellent way to finish up. Highly satisfied.

Joanna was fantastic in organising our groups stay and the reception team done a great job managing us all.
Great Hotel, and well located. Seating during breakfast rush hour a little complicated,
Very clean.
As a frequent visitor the overall experience didn't disappoint. Thank you.
The staff were friendly ,thank you so much for the good service.
Thanks for a great stay . There are no negatives about this hotel best staff great location clean nothink to much trouble. Irish lady behind the bar 🍸 in the night fantastic. Many many thanks see you again very soon emma mandy x
The location is perfect and near the downtown area, the staff is very hospitable and so helpful with any questions we had. The rooms are clean and the bed is comfortable. We highly recommend staying here!
Hotel was nice in the lobby and the staff were really helpful and nice! The air conditioning was showing an “error” message and it was not working all night- very little sleep No other rooms available and maintenance was not available
Great location and comfortable bed. The room was quite small for two people and luggage.
I’m a regular Motel One customer and I really enjoy staying in your hotels. This time, I cannot give a 10 because for the second time in a row, I was given a room adapted for people with disabilities, which aren’t as convenient for tall people (low sink, low door handle…) Also at checkout, I was told that my invoice would be sent by email. It never came and I had to send two emails to get the correct invoice. On the first invoice , the breakfast had been forgotten… With a regular room and automated invoice email, I would have given a ten. The motel one in Dublin is really nice and well located.
Excellent staff and wonderful location.
Room is far to small and nosy
Excellent service over all, slight issue with room on entering but cleaning supervisor sorted it out immediately and was very appologic. Will be booking in again soon
Do not trust the front desk to book a taxi as we did, I booked a taxi to the airport the night before which did not arrive so asked the front desk to check the booking the did but said it was not booked very dissatisfied
Relaxing vibe - great atmosphere that makes you want to lounge in the guest lounge. My only hope would be more snacks available and more focus on teas and coffees so it isn’t so wine and cocktail oriented.
Super helpful staff, especially Joanna who helped pull the whole group booking together really easily. Great location and service
In general I was very satisfied. I had a courtyard room as I requested, which was quiet and comfortable. It is a good idea that residents could put on the sign "no cleaning today" on selected days. The only thing I missed was a handrail in the bathroom, for especially older people's sake, like myself. I will return to Ireland in spring next year for a week and I am determined to stay with you again, if possible.
I have never meet someone as serviceminded as illia from the reception
The overall look and feel of the hotel are good, great bar area. Bedrooms are bright airy and as expected, the biggest pain was breakfast, absolute sh.t show !!!!! whoever designed the spaces needs locking up, way too small , no real thought gone into it, very over crowded the whole experience just made you angry.
We found the staff really nice and when my medical procedure was cancelled they had no problem refunding me one of the nights I had booked they were fantastic I will be in Dublin again soon and will stay with them again thank you
Good hotel, good location with friendly staff. Rooms are small but the bed was very comfortable. Would stay there again.
It's important that you include the option of a hot breakfast: scrambled eggs, omelette, bacon, sausages, beans etc. You're charging far too much not to.
Location was great, very central to everything we wanted to do. Hotel was very clean, check-in was fast and easy. Room was very clean as well, spacious enough for our 2 night stay. Quiet. Lobby bar area was comfortable.
Great area, fantastic staff. Good value.Clean and comfortable and quiet rooms.
Location is absolutely perfect. Short walk to Temple Bar, all restaurants and shops. Quiet area but close to everything. Very nice hotel, excellent staff and delicious breakfast.
compact but pleasant room, comfortable bed and powerful shower.
We loved it. Clean, comfortable, lovely decor. The staff were helpful, the breakfast was great.
Switch on. beOne.

Hotels in Dublin
Following in the footsteps of James Joyce
 
Picturesque streets, bright red brick buildings, the captivating sound of pipes – Dublin is pure poetry. It’s no wonder that the literary greats feel so at home here. James Joyce in particular was fond of the Irish capital. His declaration of love? ‘When I die, Dublin will be written on my heart.’ It’s not for nothing that he dedicated an entire collection of short stories to the city of the shamrock – and with great success.
To this day, Dubliners is considered a masterpiece of Irish literature. But there are other poets and thinkers who also fell helplessly under the spell of Ireland’s charm, among them Jonathan Swift, Sean O’Casey, Oscar Wilde and Samuel Beckett. Dublin well deserves its UNESCO title of City of Literature.

A Harry Potter welcome
Narrow winding streets, quaint pubs, Gothic churches – Dublin’s old town looks as though it could have been taken from a Harry Potter film. Even Trinity College looks remarkably similar to Hogwarts. The prestigious university has sat enthroned in the heart of the Irish capital since 1592 and has produced a great number of creative minds, from Jonathan Swift to Oscar Wilde and Samuel Beckett. How many hours are they likely to have spent poring over books in the Long Room? But young students certainly don’t come to this time-honoured part of the Trinity College library just to learn. Book a guided tour of the Long Room and enjoy hearing amusing anecdotes about the student life of Oscar Wilde and his fellow alumni.
Harry Potter would feel just as comfortable in Temple Bar as at Trinity College. In this lively district with its narrow cobblestone streets, Dublin shows its party side, with Irish pubs lined up one after the other. And the best thing is that in the evening, the traditional Irish pubs transform into concert venues. After all, a pint of Guinness tastes all the better when it’s accompanied by live music.
Speaking of Guinness: anyone with a weakness for the Irish stout shouldn’t pass up the opportunity to visit the Guinness Museum. Take a look back at the beer’s 250-year history and get to know the culinary heart of Dublin a little better. And after the theory, of course, comes the practice. Round off your visit to the museum with a chilled Guinness in the Gravity Bar and enjoy breathtaking views of the city at the same time. Sláinte!
But now it’s back to Dublin’s incredible Harry Potter backdrop: St. Patrick’s Cathedral is an absolute must-see. Its namesake gave us the famous St. Patrick’s Day, which is celebrated every year on 17 March – in Ireland’s national colour, green, of course. Legend has it that Dublin’s national cathedral was built based on a small chapel from the fifth century where St. Patrick himself baptised people with holy water. Had enough history? Then the small park right next to St. Patrick’s Cathedral is the perfect place to relax.

Particularly on chilly, rainy days, the Irish warm themselves up with a hearty stew made with lamb and vegetables. Fancy a dessert? How about some Irish barmbrack?
