I would like to recognise Meghan on reception who is amazing. She always has my iron and board already in my room - I don't even have to ask anymore. She is so warm and friendly, a super asset to have
Always very helpful pleasant staff Always help out that extra bit . .Aoife at reception brilliant. Have stayed every time I have to go to dublin. (would like to see a loyalty scheme for repeat visits)
Hotel really nice and clean, room was very small, shower pressure was little to none, no fridge or ironing services in the room
I stayed for a concert and had a lovely stay, staff were very friendly and extremely helpful and accommodating for any questions and made my stay very easy in Dublin. Had a lovely room and felt very safe great location and will definitely stay again. Was able to check in extra early which was great!
Nice but very small rooms for the price. Parking was a major issue. 24 access lots were not available so we took the rental car back a day early.
Absolutely phenomenal service from all the staff from start to finish
We had a lovely stay at the hotel. Everything was absolutely fine, and our room was beautiful, comfortable, and had a wonderful view. We really enjoyed our stay and would happily come back.
Excellent hotel in a perfect central location. Clean, comfortable, and offering a high‑quality breakfast with a great variety of products. Highly recommended.
Location is perfect, clean rooms, and quiet even though its in the city centre. Easy check-in using the app.
Very good hotel Does not serve food other than breakfast Room clean and enough room Good shower too I’d recommend it
Location convenient restaurants shopping and city sites. Just love the quickie decor and the friendly staff attended to our every need. Can highly recommended and highly recommend highly recommend it highly recommend Dublin Motel One for your next stay in Dublin!!
Very nice hotel in central Dublin. Super service. The rooms are nice. A little small closet space. The breakfast room was a little small in relation to the number of guests.
Disappointing that breakfast was not included
I enjoyed the room.. the location was great for our visit. I like that the room was very clean and very modern. What was disappointing is the fact that there was no phone in the room. I was traveling alone and if I needed to call the front desk for help there was no house phone to call on. Secondly there was no note card with a phone number to call the front desk from my cell phone. I think it would help if you add a note card with a phone number for help, unless you really don't want your front desk to answer guest phone calls. Also, I was disappointed that there wasn't a drinking glass in the bathroom. I wear a retainer that needs to be soaked overnight. I used one of the coffee cups. In the morning the cup had split and the water had run out and wet everything I had on the counter by the sink. Even a plastic cup would have been fine but the paper cup for the coffee did not work for 10 hours.
safe door does not close from 2 stays in recent weeks in 2 different rooms No option of fry up for breakfast
Location of the property is really good. Close to major shopping, restaurants, and bus stops. Tram runs directly in front of property. Very convenient and walking distance to most attractions! Front desk staff extremely friendly and helpful. Room was fairly small…bathroom even smaller…but clean. No room for extra storage.
I love Motel One. Joanna on Front Desk is an absolute pleasure. She is the best person in any hotel I have worked with in Ireland, or anywhere. She is my favourite. The hotel is perfect. The location is unbeatable. Thank you for all you do for me and my tour groups.
Clean, great location, wonderful breakfast. And staff was helpful.
Hotel is very nicely presented. Staff very nice. Unfortunately the aircon unit in my room was very loud and kept flashing an error message. The breakfast was very expensive and limited, especially because I have an allergy, some fresh fruit would have been nice. The expense could have been because I booked late though.
The staff was so friendly and accommodating! The hotel was clean and I felt safe and it was close to everything. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay.
We had a lovely time all the staff are loverly through out the hotel. When having breakfast Jannet and Megan made the experience great
Excellent hotel in a great location. The staff were all very helpful, particularly Miguel at reception who could not have done any more to help us. We will definitely return.
Friendly staff, clean room and easy access to city centre
Staff were all friendly and very helpful.
Absolutely brilliant location and very sleek and stylish hotel. The bed was insanely comfy!
Due to flight changes, we arrived at the hotel at 4:30am and the front desk was quick and helpful! Breakfast had a huge variety and my room was very cute!
Front desk staff was very helpful with contacting airlines about lost luggage and delivery. Enjoyed breakfast especially the croissants.
Perfect location for sightseeing Dublin. Very nice and quiet rooms, no issues with traffic or other visitors. Excellent continental breakfast, recommend!
Approachable and friendly staff on the front desk. We were able to leave our bags that were secured away whilst exploring Dublin before checking in, which we were able to do early. Rooms are nice and clean and have everything you need. Rooms on the smaller side compared to a standard hotel room, but bed was still big and still had small bedside storage and a tv on the wall. Able to opens windows and air con/heating unit was great. The mattress was on the firmer side, probably too firm for my liking but still a good nights sleep with comfortable pillows. The bathroom was nice and bright and spacious with a good sized shower. Due to our short stay we opted for no cleaning but was able to ask at reception for clean towels, etc, which were placed on our bed when we arrived back to our room later that day. Lifts were always quick and huge bar/restaurant area which was reasonably priced. I would have liked there to be actual coffee mugs in the rooms, rather than small paper cups but this still worked. Overall, we had a pleasant stay and would return.
Everything was absolutely amazing. Location, breakfast, cleanliness, air conditioning, room size, bed size and comfort, staff friendliness. Comfortable room. Not loud at all. A very relaxing stay.
We stayed at the Motel One in Dublin for an extended period in June with our three children for the Dance World Championship. We have never experienced such great service and such nice staff before. Thank you very much for this wonderful experience.
Very nice friendly hotel in the heart of Dublin city. Staff very friendly helpful. Nice bar with seated outdoor area.
Wonderful stay beautiful rooms
I stayed here recently with my partner and we both loved it. After an early flight we went to the hotel to drop off our bags and were able to check in early which was greatly appreciated. The bed was comfy, air conditioning worked well and the room was very quiet. The location is excellent within Dublin and we were able to walk everywhere we wanted to visit easily. We would highly recommended to anyone visiting Dublin. Thank you for a great stay!
Handy location Hates the paper cups to have morning tea in room (not very environmentally friendly) Clean
As always, everything was great. Zlata and Gary were a wonderful team at reception.
The hotel is centralised and accessible to every thing. The restaurants and shopping centre. Everything was good except you have to improve with the housekeeping.
Nice hotel, small room, not a good smell from the wc
Miguel was Really Nice and helpful :)
I really enjoyed the bar.\n The staff was very friendly. The room was God.
We had a lovely stay there with our dog. Staff were very laid back and nice to us. Area is a little bit sketchy but the hotel is lovely and funky and relaxed once you get inside. Nice clean room and lovely hand soap in the bathroom :)
You’ve made me a customer for life . Your Dublin location is superb. And a very warm and welcoming staff. Juan and the new trainee were exceptional.
Have stayed a few times and have nothing negative to say about the place! Conveniently located and spotlessly maintained! Would highly recommended.
Great location, friendly staff and everything was clean and comfortable.
We stayed here for 1 night while attending an event in Dublin fabulous hotel. Its in the centre but the hotel is quiet we stayed on the 4th floor. Room very clean. Staff friendly and buffet breakfast fab. Definitely would recommend this hotel. The only downside is there is only Guinness available on draught so it would be good to have 1 or 2 more options for a pint
The size of the room and the total absence of any place for clothes is unacceptable
Super Hotel
Excellent hotel, great location, friendly staff, great breakfast. Thank you
Very comfy and clean environment at an affordable price.
Everything was perfect,we would like to thank especially from reception Juan who was very helpful.

3 Fun Facts while in Dublin
There is no bad weather...
When it rains in Dublin, there are usually gusts of wind that claim a lot of umbrella victims. We recommend: rather wear raincoats, they last longer!
Piuu piuuuu!
Anyone walking in the city will soon know what this sound is all about. It kind of reminds us of a laser gun from science fiction movies, doesn't it?
Your Choice of cheers!
Drinking a Guinness is almost obligatory in Dublin. If that's too tart for you, order a "Baby Guinness": This in turn is a shot of coffee liqueur and Irish cream, which imitates the look of the beer - but in sweet!

That means it’s easy for you to discover the cultural treasures of the city centre – they’re all virtually on the doorstep.
From Dublin Airport, take the 784 bus, alight at stop 303 Eden Quay in the centre and walk five minutes towards the hotel. The hotel also offers transfers to and from the airport, which are easy to book.

Experience Dublin by day and by night from the design hotel
Immerse yourself in the fascinating history and culture of Dublin by visiting attractions like St. Patrick’s Cathedral, Dublin Castle and Trinity College Library, a short distance from the hotel. The city also enchants visitors with its green oases, like Phoenix Park and Saint Stephen’s Green. Dublin Zoo will impress young and old alike.
Culinary delights and traditions in the heart of Dublin
A visit to a traditional pub in the old town is an essential part of any hotel stay in Dublin. This is where you’ll experience the unique flair of the city. Temple Bar is the cultural heart, where you can try a pint of the famous Guinness in an authentic pub, bar or restaurant. If your legs are weary, the hotel lounge will be glad to serve you one, too.
A clean hotel for a reasonable price – in the heart of the city
Our city hotels in Dublin offer comfortable accommodation in the centre with excellent connections to public transport. The Jervis Luas stop and the train station are located close to the design hotel. If you’re arriving at the hotel by car, we recommend using the APCOA Car Park Jervis Street, which is only three minutes away from the hotel. That way, you can easily visit Dublin’s attractions like EPIC The Irish Emigration Museum (Connolly station) and the National Leprechaun Museum.
Not far from the hotel, you’ll also find Dublin’s Jeanie Johnston museum: on a replica of a ship that took Irish emigrants to North America in the 19th century, history is made tangible. Further out from the hotel in Dublin, but definitely worth the trip on public transport, the former Kilmainham Gaol prison has been converted into a thought-provoking museum. This is where political prisoners were once held.
