Great location! Walking distance to a lot of great restaurants and pubs, and right by the Guinness Storehouse. Nice hotel, wonderful staff-they even had a welcome note with chocolates for me and my husband bc we were celebrating our honeymoon. They upgraded our room to one with a view, also. Breakfast buffet was good also and reasonably priced. Would stay again if in Dublin. read more

Solid American style hotel. Great breakfast and a nice bar all night. It's on the tram line so easy access to wherever you want to go. It's also a 15 minute walk to all of Dublin. It's not on the main drag per se but everything is easy to get to by foot. Plus it's easy access to Heuston Station if you want to see the countryside. It's also right next to three pubs which are good (although karaoke should not be allowed at Rea's. Maybe ever). Phoenix Park is a short walk and worth it. We saw a hurling player, an impromptu soccer match and a cricket game all with a half mile. Great location. read more

My God what a beautiful hotel. I I dare say the word sumptuous. I loved it and I am going to keep going. I I really don't want to bad mouth Jur Christchurch but it does not even come close. read more

With completely renovated rooms, a fantastic location, and a friendly staff, this is a top choice for a moderately priced hotel room in Dublin. In addition, there was a complimentary continental breakfast, and for those of you that like your breakfast hot, there was a large selection of breakfast goodies for a fairly hefty up-charge. The rooms were decent sized and the bathrooms were fantastic. All in all, a lovely stay at a great hotel. Be sure to check their off peak rates!! read more

This is a no-brainer - we will stay here again on our next visit to Dublin. Right next to the LUAS Red Line, easy access to freeways if you are driving, and nice rooms. We chose the place to get a room with beds for our family of 4 - hard to do in Europe, i guess. The only thing I didn't like with the service was that the restaurant manager delayed our seating on purpose to make us miss early-bird dinner pricing. read more

I stayed here at the end of my tour of Ireland. And it was nothing short of great they were very accommodating. The breakfast was excellent quality. I will say this is written A while after I've stayed here so bear with me. Honestly it central location makes it an easy walk to downtown Dublin or just take a streetcar ride to which is right there or a taxi. Either way it's easy to get around from where you are. And there is plenty to walk to nearby. If I'm ever in Dublin again I would definitely stay here. read more

Booked here as it was a pretty good price, for a one night break with a friend. Location is a little out of the way compared to others we could have chosen but a short taxi or tram ride sorts that out. Plus sides: really nice decor in the lobby, secure entry to all floors as well as rooms, comfortable beds and pillows, lovely bathrooms (though our bath did have a big cigarette burn on it!). Down sides: in our room, 168, we had noisy trams going past until late night and starting again early in the morning, plus noise from next door room so sound proofing does not appear to be great. We also had too much furniture in the room - why put a wee table and chair in there when there is already a long bench/dressing table and chair? All it served was to get in the way and injure us bumping into it! Also, letting the bathroom down is the old-fashioned hairdryer "wand" unit attached to wall - not very powerful, awkward to use. The bar area looked nice, we tried to have a nightcap there but the barman said they didn't have any amaretto and then grumpily discouraged us from having anything else - we eventually got a soft drink and left. I am sure he was just having a bad night, but he really was not welcoming or friendly or in any way attentive which was in direct constrast to Laura on reception, who welcomed us very well indeed. Free wifi is a nice touch. Did not use restaurant, so can't comment on that. Only options for drinking water is a 2 euro bottle out of a vending machine. Overall, I would probably go back, but only if a bargain again. A wee bit more eye for detail would make this hotel really great. Room Tip: Ask for a room at back of hotel, 168 very noisy from trams. read more

We spent three nights here on a recent trip to Dublin. The beds were very comfortable. The rooms are quite small if you are used to hotel rooms in the US. But they have everything that you could possibly need and are clean and well lit. The Wi-Fi worked well and was free. The bath tub in our room was quite high so if you have difficulty stepping in, this might be an issue. The breakfast that is included with the room was by far, the star of the show. I have never seen so many options, such great quality, such delicious food in a breakfast buffet. They serve full Irish breakfast along with any other continental breakfast item you can imagine. Many varieties of juice and other drinks are also included. The staff are wonderful and always very helpful and attentive in the restaurant as well as the hotel. I would definitely recommend this to anyone staying in Dublin as it is near public transportation and in a nice area. read more

dont get me wrong, it's a nice hotel with a good bar. but the housekeeping/concierge is atrocious. stayed here for 3 days and asked for housekeeping service each day and was told it would be done. i come back to the room after touring day after day and not even the trash is taken out. no clean bedsheets after 2 days, no toilet paper, or towels. i even spoke to a maid myself and was told it would be done later that day and still nothing. really a shame especially after what i spent to stay here. can't guarantee i'll be coming back after this experience. read more

The hotel was great, I had a nice double room which was large and had a hairdryer, trouser press, iron etc and the staff were very pleasant. The bathroom was very clean and I was very impressed. The only downside is the site of the hotel. It's a good 10-15 minute walk to O'Connell street (centre), but the tram stop is just 1 minute walk away. If you stay here for any length of time it's a good idea to get a 7 day pass on these as it was only 10 euros for unlimited travel to the city centre. Considering its 4 euros for one return it's a good deal I thought the breakfasts...gorgeous! good range of four or five cereals, fresh fruit, tea coffee, bread, buns, ham, cheese and also the cooked breakfast was great too, all the usual, fried eggs, scrambled eggs, sausages, bacon, toast, tomatoes and of course the good old porridge So overall, if you're coming to Dublin, the Ashling hotel is a great choice as it is a lot cheaper then various ones in the city centre, and all you have to do to get into the heart of the city is hop on a tram read more

On Saturday 05 Sept 2020 I was on my way out to see the US Ambassador in Phoenix Park, Dublin. I was on Parkgate St. when it started to lash rain, it was really coming down heavy.I pulled into the shelter of the underground carpark of the Ashling Hotel.Within 5 minutes I was approached by a security guard of Central European origin, he apologized profusely and told me I had to leave. I reasoned with him that I would be gone as soon as the rain storm passed by. Then a young man in his early thirties appeared, he told me I could not take shelter in the entrance to the car park because if any accident befell me he would be responsible. He identified himself as Jamie Steen and claimed he was the owner of the property. He became physically aggressive and started shouting "Get off my property", I left and got a good drenching.I have never experienced such mean spirited, unchristian behaviour then I have from the owner of the Ashling Hotel and would recommend anybody to give the place a wide berth. read more

Really friendly and helpful staff! Hotel room was clean and the breakfast was delicious with many options. The room was spacious. Overall great stay- hope to stay again one day. read more

Great hotel for our vacation. We walked every night to Trinity College area, Temple Bar, etc. across the street from the rail station for our galavanting around the country. Great concierge and front desk. Pizza available 24 hrs through room service. read more

Excellent service, excellent room, excellent deal. We highly recommend. The breakfast is outstanding. Near all sites and public transportation. read more

I usually avoid hotels near train stations as they often have and unfriendly element. I found this hotel to be comfortable, spacious and well controlled from a security perspective. I would stay here again. read more

Nice rooms and close to the train station. We had a modern room with King bed and AC. We loved that they let us check in at 10am after an overnight flight from the US. Great place to stay if you need to be at the train station early in the morning. read more

After doing a lot of research on hotels on trip advisor, I came across the Ashling Hotel. The pictures and reviews were very positive. We stayed for 6 nights from 4/14/17-4/20/17. We arrived early and we were able to get right into our room. Our king room was very nice, clean and comfortable. The bathrooms were insanely big with a stand up shower and separate bath. The restaurant/bar in the lobby was very cozy and they had great fish and chips and pizza! They also have an excellent breakfast. You have the option of a full traditional breakfast or a regular continental. The hotel is also very secure. You needed to use your key card to enter the hallways on each floor. The hotel is about a 7-10 minute walk to the train station and about. 7-10 minute walk to the tram stop that takes you into city centre. If you need a taxi, they were always available and if you needed one ordered for the next morning, the hotel made all arrangements. All the staff had superb customer service and were very helpful when we had questions about where to eat and how to get around the city. I would definitely stay here again on my next visit to Dublin and would highly recommend this hotel to anyone traveling to Dublin. read more

See all

Guest care is definitely not a strong suit here. Clean and convenient. Will not rebook here next trip.

Had the most wonderful stay with my boyfriend. Excellent service and a breakfast to die for! Have raved about this hotel to all my friends back home. I would highly recommend read more

Very comfortable. We stayed two nights at the beginning of our trip and slept like rocks. Breakfast is quite the affair and you really can very easily eat way too much! Delicious. Our room was spic and span. Really appreciated the bottles of water and little shortbreads. Not exactly close to the main tourist areas but an easy walk in nice weather or an affordable cab ride back if you've been hitting the pubs! Quiet at night, we had no loud hall noises and just the regular city noises from outside. Nothing disruptive at all. read more

Location is quiet and the bus stop is right there, other than that I highly and urgently recommend you to spend your money elsewhere in Dublin. Nothing is worth anything at this place at every level from the staff, the rooms, the beds, the decor, the cleanliness, the food, and everything in between. Guiness storehouse is about a 10 minute walk. Other than that I regret staying there and once again do not recommend it. read more

AWFUL arrived at 6am, waited 7 hours and STILL haven't gotten a room I had on reservation. Watched numerous other families come in and get rooms. Me and my family haven't eaten or slept in 24 hours. And the staff is completely incompetent and careless. Never again. Stay away unless you like being an after thought read more

Nice family rooms, excellent food, courteous and helpful employees. My mother, kid sister, and I stayed here for a little more than a week and there were no problems! read more

I stayed here for about a week - the rooms aren't spectacular but they get the job done! I was only in my room to sleep, anyway. Bathroom was VERY spacious but the bed wasn't very comfortable. Pizza is delicious! And there's a parking garage. Close to pubs and shopping areas. I would stay again! read more

We are here for a tour of Ireland , this hotel was the first one of our trip . We arrived a day early to somewhat adjust to the time . We arrived at the hotel at 6am . We where told no rooms were available , people where checking out and hopefully by 9 Am we'd have a room . It's a new story every person we speak to so now it's we are in a King room and it's not clean . You have people waiting , exhausted can you maybe get the room cleaned for us so we can rest for a few hours . Disgusted and it's Day 1 , we are both too exhausted to do anything today this was a rest day for us . No rest aggravation .. read more

We really weren't that impressed with our stay here. We got there early, right after getting off our plane, and they wouldn't allow us to check in early. That was fine, because not everywhere can accommodate this, though all we really wanted to do right then was take a nap. More problematic was that we made our reservation through a 3rd party deal site, and it didn't go through to them. My boyfriend emailed them the confirmation, and they claimed they didn't get it. Finally, after a couple more times, they got it. Luckily, they let us store our stuff at the hotel, though it was in the parking garage which was somewhat inconvenient because we had to backtrack to where we came from. The room was fine--the bathroom counter space was impressive, and the breakfast we ordered in the room was nice. Our major issue was that the last morning we were there, the power in the room just suddenly went out. We had to shower in the dark and couldn't use the hair dryer or any other appliances. The front desk staff seemed largely unconcerned but did comp us parking. I think I was just expecting more from one of Dublin's top rated hotels. We probably will not return the next time we're in the area and will try to find something better. read more

Great hotel outside the loud bar part of dublin, easy public transportation or a short walk to whatever needed. Very friendly staff and nice rooms overall! read more

This hotel is absolutely AMAZING! Not only does it offer an excellent rate, but the service is amazing! There was a group of 5 of us who traveled on holiday to Dublin, Ireland and this just happened to fit our rate perfectly! The rooms were the perfect size as we had 2 rooms that fit two people each. They also had a door that connected both rooms for us which made it easier at night when we wanted to chill between rooms. The size of the rooms were more than perfect as they fit all of our luggage and us with plenty of room! The bathrooms were also beyond wonderful! As they were so well designed and clean! I loved how offer a heated towel stand that warmed up while you were showering! I mean it was AWESOME! I also loved the way the bathrooms were designed as they are so modern! I also loved the free Wifi as it was easy to hop on to and so fast! In addition, the hotel had an EXCELLENT BAR AND RESTAURANT! The food was AMAZING and some of the best we had in all of Dublin. I definitely recommend the venison as it was mouth watering and simply amazing to eat! read more

Very nice. The staff seemed to be able to get anything done quickly. Left a note for a wake up call and did not get one. Luckily had a back up travel alarm. We didn't have the room cleaned, left a do not disturbed note which was honored. To our surprise they left Towels and water on the handle. We would definitely be back. read more

Had a very nice stay at the Ashling Hotel for 1 night. Location is ok for the city centre as the Museum tram stop is located 1 minute from the doors. Trams are frequent and quick into town. The hotel is also very close to the Heuston rail station and thus at the terminus of the 747 airport link bus. We had booked a superior room which turned out to be a quite impressive corner room with a huge bathroom and ample space for everything. The bed was large and firm - very comfortable. I consider the small increase in the room rate well spent. Arriving late from the airport we had dinner hat the hotel restaurant. After some confusion we were shown to a nice table. The meal itself was good if not overly imaginative. However, the service was friendly, the beer cold and the price tag was reasonable for what we had. The bar is located across the lobby. It looks rather dreadful (and is obviously designed to also cater for large tour groups during the day), but the Cosmopolitan I had was amazingly good and was a lot more refined than the place looked. One area where the hotel shone was the breakfast which left nothing to desire in selection or quality of the food. All in all I can wholeheartedly recommend the hotel, even if it is a bit away from the usual hot spots in Dublin (but that can also be an advantage on a weekend). In our case, it also tended to be cheaper than the more central places. read more

The room was a little outdated but we were really happy with our stay. Location is a little far from temple bar area but other than that, we enjoyed it. The staff was friendly and kind. The food was great too. read more
