Spent a night at this Dublin gem! Cozy, clean and comfortable. Located minutes from the Guinness Factory and Museum. Staff was attentive and helpful. Both restaurants were yummy. Highly recommend! read more

DO NOT RESERVE BREAKFASTS WHEN MAKING HOTEL RESERVATION on the website. This results in a huge mess not a convenience. Best to follow the in house voucher process. When at the hotel and you decide to have breakfast at the hotel- request your breakfast voucher at the front desk, day to day ( the day before). I was informed I would have a minimal credit at check out, minimal is great so as not to owe the hotel. But, there has not been any credit's issued, nor does anyone respond to my inquiries to make sure all was good. Most hotels provide you with a billing document at check out, for review. I was waiting for such but none provided. read more

Traveled in August 2025. Stayed 6 nights. A very nice hotel located just steps away from the train station (going to Cork or Galway) and the tram stop for getting around town. The front desk was always helpful. The room was quite comfy and the bathroom was clean and big. The hotel restaurant was as good as other places we ate in the city. Don't be afraid to ask for extra ice with your Coke. read more

This hotel is so nice, everyone was so friendly and the breakfast is so good! A nice place especially for those unfamiliar with European hotels (lol) read more

Slick and modern, this was one of our better hotel experiences in Ireland. Our room was huge, we had a king bed, lots more TV stations than we had seen all week, and an excellent modern bathroom. The lobby and bar/restaurants are all gorgeous. We sat in the bar, sipped our Irish coffees, and took in the sights all around us. Breakfast was a 100+ item buffet that was wonderful. Five stars for the Ashling ! read more

The room was nice and the service was good. The food was nice at the restaurant. The location is really wonderful and convenient, across the river from the Heuston Train station and very close to the park and zoo. read more

We stayed here 3 nights and while it's not in downtown Dublin, it's a short walk to Guinness Storehouse. There are buses and trams a short walk away, so easy access to transportation. The staff was great recommending best ways to get places and they were always friendly and professional. Very clean hotel with comfy beds, this was a great place complete with doorman. There are a few pubs and restaurants within walking distance worth checking out. We booked with the buffet breakfast which boasts over 100 items. Was so so but nice that we got to start our days loaded up. They do charge for parking but not many hotels even offer so keep that in mind if renting a car. The bar area has a restaurant which we used once and they also have room service. Safe and secure, you need to use your key to enter hallway to room. If you want to charge batteries, you'll need to leave a key in slot by door or all electric powers off when you leave room. read more

Beautiful hotel! The staff here is very accommodating and will lead you in the right direction if you're are looking for something to do. The hotel is conveniently located in an area that has two bus stops close by. The traditional Irish breakfast was always well stocked and very tasty. The room was very clean and felt like it was well taken care of between guests. The restaurant for dinner time actually gets pretty packed due to the small space it uses up, but the food is pretty decent for a hotel restaurant. read more

Kind of off the beaten path, but a few places close by. Roomds were ok. The 1st room we had didnt come with AC so 30 euros extra a night we chose a room and moved to the AC. This room was HUGE! But...and this is gross. The tub next to the toilet would spit out water when it was flushed.Thankfully there was a separate shower. Not sure how this was rated 5 star hotels on web sites. read more

Having never been to Ireland I picked The Ashling out of a list of top-ranked hotels. (Gee, looks like I made it all the way to the A's). Went with the "Superior King" room which is quite a bit larger than one might expect. Staff is excellent. Hotel is quiet and luxurious but not in a hoity-toity kind of way. We stayed 4 nights with no problems to report. read more

It's spotless, has welcoming staff, full breakfast, excellent location for public transportation and walking distance to lively evening entertainment. Across the street from Heuston Station. When we return to Dublin, we will definitely book our room at the Ashling Hotel. Excellent place to stay. read more

This hotel is amazing -great restaurant and bar inside their pizza is amazing I had one literally every night - just a few buildings down from a traditional pub that had tons of locals (Nancy hands) -located close to the train station -easy to hail a cab they usually are parked outside -fantastic breakfast with so many staples hot and cold items alike - comfortable large beds -deep bathtubs -located only a few steps away from the national museum -short walk to Guinness as well! If you are a tourist and want a nice place to stay I definitely recommend this hotel. Not insanely far from temple bar area but far enough away to avoid the hustle and crowds. I have stayed here twice and can't imagine staying anywhere else in Dublin. read more

Spent just one night here before flying home. Comfortable rooms with nice furnishings. The staff was very pleasant and we especially appreciated the recommendation of Wuuf restaurant just down the street for lunch. Their breakfast buffet was great and should be enjoyed. This would be a great starter to anyone's day. Having a long flight back I appreciated getting filled up before getting on the plane and best of all it was included in the cost of the room. We ate in the bar area and it was very good with great service. No complaints here. I would caution travelers with a rental car that their parking garage is very tight and caution should be taken. read more

Arrived at the Ashling around 12pm, and even though on my conformation it stated no early check in I was told my room was ready for me, the front desk help was cheery and helpful, in fact every time I wound up at the front desk everyone was friendly and helpful. The room was a nice size room, the view was lacking it was facing roof top of some other part of the hotel but I was completely ok with that. Also the room had 2 heating radiators, now I have to say Dublin was the coldest of all the cities we visited, but it just wasn't cold enough to learn how to use said radiators, but to be honest the room held a nice temperature not cold not hot just perfect. The bathroom had amazing counter top space, but again no outlet other than for shavers in the bathroom, and the blow dryer was in a drawer by the mirrored vanity. The beds were comfortable and never heard any foot traffic in the halls. I enjoyed my stay at The Ashling, it's a very nice hotel and the staff is friendly and always greets you with a smile, you are not that far from a bus stop or train stop so getting around isn't hard at all. If back in the area I wouldn't mind staying at The Ashling again. read more

Boy, has the Ashling on Parkgate st come a long way. Just a few years ago, this towering modern hotel was a much more modest four-floor affair that sat comfortably with its vintage neighbours -a small B&B and the unassuming Millennium Pub. Then, in the downslope of the building boom something huge happened here;the lesser hotel was stripped down to a few rooms and walls, much of the parking and entry areas razed for a year-long overhaul that resulted in a much larger and more visible marble-clad high-rise. With the new look came a new attitude, and when the new Ashling opened for business late in '09 it came with dramatic styling, refurbished rooms and an all-new restaurant, bar and lounge. Over in the Iveagh bar guests and local professionals people the split-level room, a dark and velvet-draped space with low lighting that practically requires a flashlight, even in the day. That is, of course, unless they've taken a window seat in one of the huge sofa seating areas. There it's easy to enjoy tea, a book and some low conversation as plans are made for day trips or business deals. The menu is as ornate as the interior decoration, with standard pub food like paninis (hard to imagine these are standard, but I'm able to get one of these practically everywhere but the oldest of old men pubs nowadays) tarted up with slices of brie and carmelised onion relish. But, its quiet and the staff do give guests their space (meaning it's a slog getting someone to bring a second pot of tea). Not bad for the little hotel that could. read more

We've stayed in this hotel twice over the course of our 16 day trip to Ireland. When we first got in to the hotel, we were really really early in arriving, and our check in had initially been for 2 in the afternoon. It was around 8am when we arrived, and the girl at the desk was not only very cheerful in greeting us, but also very sweet and informative and checked us in early and gave us free books and guides for the city. And I don't mean dinky pamphlets - these are legitimate *books.* It was very kind of her! The sizes of the rooms are adequate, but for five people, I definitely recommend having at least two rooms. Our first stay in the hotel, we didn't realize this, and were marginally cramped. Our second time around, we got two rooms and are much more comfortable that way. I have nothing but positive things to say about the staff. They are incredibly friendly and accommodating, and Pavel, one of the night staff, is fantastic and very kind and understanding. Also, when you call down to order room service, the staff are really sweet and funny. We called down past 9pm for a warm chocolate brownie (which on the menu says is not available past 9pm) and I asked if there was a chance of us getting it anyway, and the gentleman helping me was very funny in telling me that there was 'absolutely, 100% chance of me getting it.' I enjoyed that very much. The food in the Iveagh bar is DELICIOUS. A little expensive I'm sure, but we're not just paying for the food - we're paying for the service as well, which is stellar. The full hot breakfast in the mornings is also delicious, and I think that it's reasonably priced for the sheer amount and selection of food available. If you book a room here, definitely be sure to get the full hot breakfast, you will not be disappointed. The location of the hotel is also really convenient, it's right off of the Luas line and a quick walk to the right once exiting the hotel will take you past a few cute pubs and a convenience store where you can get stamps, withdraw money at the ATM and buy snacks and drinks. Another nice benefit of this hotel is that there's free wifi! And it's decent too, it doesn't cut out every five seconds. If (and hopefully when) we return to Dublin, we will absolutely be staying at the Ashling again. We can't express enough how very thrilled we are with the service and warmth of this hotel. read more

Ashling Hotel - We've been messing with our friends all day and they called room service and had this sent to us -- ILLUMINATI!!! - Hotels Near Me - Dublin, D

Not much to look at from the outside, this hotel is top notch. From the expansive breakfast buffet to the comfortable bed and variety of pillows, this is one place we would book again. Located on the west side of Dublin, a short walk from Phoenix Park, it's across the street from Guiness and a ten minute walk from the Pearse Lyons distillery; the Heuston trolley station is two minute away. The front desk staff was smiley and attentive, answering question without making us feel like idiots. I guess if I had a complaint it would be the hotel's bar/restaurant, Iveagh. We must've gotten there during a shift change, or on a busy night, because we were looked over by three different people before my husband got up and went to get someone to help us. The food and service were good thereafter, though, and their prices were quite reasonable. Their prices are competitive so definitely consider the Ashling when you shop around. read more

This our second stay here for one night in the past 8 days. Very conveniently located to the Dublin Heuston Train Station. On this visit we were upgraded to a nicer room than the one we had last Saturday so that is wonderful. Large room, bathroom, view out of the front of the hotel. Very clean and has air conditioning. Quick service today checking in and did not have to wait for the room to be ready. So far, a great start to our last night in Ireland. read more

I've stayed at the Ashling Hotel three times. The location is nice because the LUAS stop is a few hundred meters away. The Pub is friendly and inviting, but they only have one person working, so getting a drink is a chore (I subtract a Star for that one). The restaurant is clean and well-served, but the food is bland and the breakfast buffet includes the same choices every day--unfortunately, there are NO OTHER restaurant choices for many blocks (I subtract another Star for that one). The rooms are rather large, but they are cramped with very large furniture. Plus, the bathrooms are in need of updating. The onsite parking garage is nice, but the ramps are narrow--if you aren't comfortable driving in Dublin, do not try to park in this garage. Last, the Front Desk Staff is V E R Y S L O W (I deduct another Star). I have waited almost 15 minutes to Check-In and Check-Out each stay! Needless to say, I don't stay here anymore. Yet, if you're on a budget, and can handle these minor inconveniences, then the Ashling Hotel is perfectly acceptable. read more

Arrived late (around 1:00AM) and there was no issue with that, hotel was very nice. Requested a double bed room got a room with a small double bed and a single bed (?!). Was already 1:30 in the morning so decided that it wasn't worth the trouble requesting to change. Hotel room was old compared to another room I saw (from my parents) which was completely new. Shower was hot and with pressure, so that's a plus. Breakfast is 10EUR and is quite good, you will probably spend that or more eating less on a coffee shop around town. Hotel and room were also quite clean. read more

The room was great then why only the 3 stars the location it's far from the center which wouldn't be so bad I've stayed at hotels out of the center of the city but there is nothing around this hotel No pubs no restaurants nothing. If you want to go out it's either a 10 min drive or a 40 min walk. The bathrooms were clean and the room was a nice size. But as a tourist just too far from any type of pub or restaurant. read more

A man entered our room in the middle of the night My group booked a triple room with this hotel, having previously visited the hotel I recommended it to my friends. Unfortunately my recommendation was incorrect and the experience of this visit differed greatly from my memory. At check in we were instructed to book a dinner reservation with the restaurant. I spoke to a pleasent staff member and as I was mid a manager 'Lou' came over and the only way I can describe it is that she began barking information at me. Throughout my experience I was pleasant and was shocked to be met with such aggresion, particularly from someone who had no place in the conversation. As we walked way I turned back and she was laughing hysterically, it was beyond unprofessional. As we entered the lift to check into our room, two male staff members joined us in the lift and overheard me state "she was very unprofessional". One turned to me and requested we explain what happened. He was very kind and helpful, ensuring he'd return to us with an update. He returned a while later confirming the staff member I had been speaking to had the same story as myself and that he would establish why Lou felt she needed to Intervene. He offered us two rounds of drinks to accompany our dinner. Having finished our meal we headed back to our room around midnight. At 5am we were woken by a rustling of the door followed by the door opening. We each reacted by screaming in fear. I rang reception and was informed by Kallid the night porter "it was probably just a member of staff, don't worry". At this time we had no idea would this person return, who was it, were we in danger. We had to wait until 8am to speak to someone from reservations. We didn't sleep between 5am-8am and then requested to speak to the manager on duty. The manager came to meet us a couple of minutes later. She was defensive lacked any sense of empathy or understanding from our viewpoint. She raised her voice to the extent I stated I wanted to have a conversation not a fight. My friend mentioned she felt it was sneaky and she was informed that was a "severe allegation that will be added to my formal report" to which I stated I was glad it would be mentioned in her report considering she hadn't even apologised at that point. We insisted on a full refund be issued and we attempted to leave the hotel. The manager had stated our parking was validated to leave the premise then the machine informed us we owed €19 per car and had to return to reception then at exit assist further help as it was still unvalidated Issues happen in hotels, we're not unreasonable guests but from start to finish this experience was not at all what we had hoped for. It ruined what we hoped would be a great reunion read more

The room was good the staff was rude. The hotel is a good distance from any sightseeing or restaurants. I wouldn't recommend.

We stayed here towards the beginning of July 2017 for 6 nights. The room is fairly spacious and the beds are comfortable. The house keeping staff cleans things on a regular basis. Carpets in the rooms are old and have stains on them. My biggest issue was the bathroom sink and tub faucets since they are separate faucets....literally separate faucets for hot water and another one for cold water. This is where 'Old fashioned' is just OLD! Hated the separate faucets. We basically mostly used freezing cold water to wash up since trying to mix the water in a cup and then use it was a hassle and exhausting process. I'll find another place next time! read more

Clean, comfortable, convenient location, parking onsite, friendly staff. My only complaint would be the very thin walls. We had a room full of young children next door that were having fun running in and out of their room while my family was trying to sleep. They were happy children just having fun so you can't get to upset. Overall I enjoyed my stay and would stay there again. read more

Loved this hotel. Easy access to the red line to go to the tourist areas, but far away enough to have quiet at night! Walkable to the Guinness factory and the Jameson distillery. Clean and a great breakfast. ** important to note parking is NOT included in price but easy and attached to the hotel read more

Very nice hotel! Visiting from California for some reason I expected AC to be in the room, but there is only a heater. We just left our window open and we were totally fine! They have complementary water bottles in the room along with cookies, a kettle, tea, and coffee. To turn the lights on there is a box by the door that you put your room key in. The customer service is great! If you arrive early they will hold your luggage while you explore. They also have one of the best complementary breakfasts i've ever seen! A very large buffet with SO many options! The only thing about this hotel is that it's about a mile walk from most of the stuff you are going to want to see so just consider that while booking! read more

We actually did stay here again because of our amazing experience last time and again had a great experience. We didn't have any out of the ordinary needs this time around but found the room and beds comfortable and the staff friendly and helpful. The location is perfect. Right by the airlink station and hop on/off station and close but not too close to all the action. read more

Very nice sized rooms and well equipped bathroom Friendly staff but not near downtown so limited restaurants nearby and taxis to get downtown are costly. OnE strange fact is that no drawers in rooms to put clothes so you live out of your suitcase. read more

We stayed 2 nights here on vacation. I loved this hotel! It is away from downtown, but I liked that better. Room service was great. The room was roomy and was nice. The best thing was the heated towel rack in the bathroom. Amazing!! There is a $20 parking fee. The parking garage is very small. That was the only downside. read more

We stayed here for 1 week and we could not be happier. The entire staff always went above and beyond to make sure we had a good time. I specially want to acknowledge Ana, Jay, and Luke. They treated our entire group so well. Next time we visit Ireland (from California, USA) we will definitely stay here. Thank you for your excellent service. read more

Yeah yeah yeah, this place has beds. I'll talk about that later. What you must first know is that they have an A-MA-ZING full continental Irish breakfast. We almost missed it on our first morning and we woke up early to catch it every other day we were here. Think about three kinds of cheeses including brie, of which I took grotesquely large chunks every morning, Mackerel, thick cut bacon, fatty sausages (aka bangers), little smoothie shots, pasteries, eggs, suatated mushrooms... I'm salivating as I write this out. In short, if you stay here, don't skip breakfast. And yes, as promised, i'll talk about the rooms- they were nice. Not the most elaboratly decorated rooms but the beds were surprisingly comfortable and the shower amemenities were plentiful, including washclothes!! Ta-da! Something our other Ireland hotels didn't offer (I guess its not common to use them in Europe). The location of this hotel is magnificiant for the train. No need to catch a cab, just walk less then 2 minutes over the bridge. It is quite a hike to the main tourist sig attractions though. The Dublin hop on/hop off buss stops at the train station so that's an easy way to get accross town. It took us about 20-25 minutes to walk to Temple Bar/Trinity college area. Which was actually a good thing in our case because we worked off all the calories we ingested at breakfast. read more

This is a perfectly adequate hotel on the outskirts of the action in Dublin. Pros: Large, clean room Helpful front desk personnel Close to Luas stop (when it worked) Huge breakfast Cons: Extremely hard/uncomfortable mattress Not easily walkable to Dublin city center Weird misunderstanding with housekeeping (resulting in an apology from the management) Ultimately, I would not recommend or stay here again. It has almost zero personality and the distance and unreliability of the LUAS trains made it a bit removed from the action for our taste. read more

Ashling Hotel - Our twin room - Hotels Near Me - Dublin, D

Surprised by all the great reviews. Ashling Hotel was a disappointment to us. The room was stuffy bc it had no a/c. We were told that half of the hotel had rooms with no a/c. The beds were tiny and uncomfortable - small for what we had reserved - a room for three. The room itself was cramped. The front desk staff seemed cold and somewhat unhelpful. The location seemed okay, but a little farther from the center of activity than some comparable hotels. We actually canceled a portion of our reservation and checked into a different hotel (Hilton Garden Inn). We found the Hilton to be far more comfortable, more centrally located, and with a more helpful staff. Plus, we saved money because the Hilton was much less expensive. I do not recommend Ashling Hotel for your stay in Dublin. read more

Fabulous hotel! Rooms are spacious and beds extremely comfy. We stayed in a deluxe room which was well worth the money due to our added space and having a shower and a bath. Breakfast was really tasty with plenty of choice and staff were very attentive. The decor was wonderful and staff made you feel welcome. The only advice I have is don't ask the hotel to get you a taxi as the taxi will automatically charge you 3euro, whereas other taxis not from the hotel only charged us an extra euro. read more

Ashling Hotel - Ashling experience - Hotels Near Me - Dublin, D

I booked this hotel through Orbitz and got a family room for a little over $100/night. The check-in process was simple, the staff not overly friendly which surprised me after reading reviews. When we got to our room, it was so small! Not only was it small, it was right by the security doors you have to enter before getting into your room. All night we heard the security doors banging against the jam. I think they save these small rooms for customers who book through third-party websites. This is unfortunate because I would think twice about returning to this hotel. A friend of mine was staying by herself and her room was updated AND twice the size of ours. On a good note, the lobby area and bathrooms were nice. It is easy to get to and from the airport and the Hop on Hop off bus stop is right outside the hotel. NOTE: It is about 1 1/2 - 2 miles from O'Connell Street. The BEST part of this hotel though were the restaurants near by. For breakfast you MUST go to Third Space, it is located by the Jameson Distillery. I can't say enough about this place! For dinner we tried FX Bukley's/Ryan's Bar and Nancy's Hands, both were the BEST meals we had in Dublin. Cheers! read more

My family and I were very impressed. The is a tram car (called the Luas) that takes you right down to the center of town. The tram is about two blocks away. Very convenient. The city tour bus has a special stop right across from the hotel, and its the only hotel that gets its own stop :-) so all in all...very convenient to stay here as you can get all over town right from the hotel. The hotel itself was clean and and bed was very comfortable. Our bathroom had a heated shower rack which was awesome! We will definitely be staying again. The only downside was breakfast was kinda expensive. You have a choice of a Continental breakfast for $10 Euros or a full Irish Breakfast for $12. We should have just spend the extra $2 euros cause the Continental breakfast was just a few pastries and croissants and dry cereal. They had fruit to but not that much to choose from. WE just felt that it was a bit expensive for what we got. WE plan on staying again...we just wont be getting their breakfast! read more
