2-Star Hotels in County Dublin, Ireland

1. **Location** There's a place with a similar name around here, so if you just put in the name and follow the map, you might end up at a different hotel. Make sure to input the exact address to find the accommodation. 2. **Luggage Storage Issue for Guests Staying in Different Rooms for Consecutive Nights** I want to share an inconvenient experience I had staying two consecutive nights in different rooms. I initially booked for one night, but my plans changed, and I wanted to extend my stay in the same place. However, I was told I had to book a different room. After my first night, I was told I had to check out at 11 AM and then check into my new room at 3 PM. During that interim, if I wanted to store my luggage, I'd have to pay 8 euros per locker. Since I needed three lockers, and to avoid the locker fees, I was told I wouldn't have to pay if I stayed on the premises. So, I spent that time doing laundry. It's a huge regret that I was tied to the accommodation from 11 AM to 3 PM and missed out on exploring the many museums in Dublin before I left. I don't think I was the only guest who booked one night and then had to book a different room for the next. The luggage storage issue for consecutive night guests seems to need improvement. Perhaps gaining a reputation for better guest care is more beneficial than trying to earn money from luggage storage. The reception desk staff, perhaps due to the size of the accommodation, only cited rules and didn't seem willing to help. 3. **Minor Inconveniences** Given the name 'Chapel Experience Room,' I assumed, like most accommodations without elevators, that it wouldn't be on the second or third floor when I booked. But alas! I had to navigate a maze of complex stairs, going up and down, to find my room. 4. **Good Points** It was great that breakfast was included. The staff preparing breakfast were kind and very diligent, which I appreciated. Although the menu only consisted of bread, cereal, and fruit, it was plentiful, which was nice. Even though it was instant coffee, it was great to be able to have coffee anytime, and milk was also available in the fridge. Having a kitchen area where you can prepare your own food anytime is also a big plus. 5. The restrooms and showers were very clean and well-maintained. 6. Even though there were over 20 beds in one room, perhaps because everyone was considerate of each other, I was able to stay without being disturbed.

Self check in is perfect if you arrive late at night or need to leave early in the morning. Rooms are comfortable, and the pod was spacious. Despite being in a 8 mixed room, we barely saw anyone, so it was quite private. Both the pod and the toilets were clean, but there is just one toilet (one for men and one for women) in the basement, so you need to leave the room and go down a couple floors. We got a towel, which was an appreciated surprise. Overall very nice experience.

The location is very convenient, the place is clean, and overall it was a great option for a three-day stay in the city. Unfortunately, one night was very difficult because there were two people in my room who snored very loudly and continuously throughout the entire night. I couldn’t sleep at all and eventually got up at 5 a.m. and went for a walk around the city. As a suggestion, perhaps the management could consider the issue of guests who snore heavily and create a separate room for them, similar to the separate room for women. Guests could indicate this in advance when booking. Alternatively, earplugs could be provided. Apart from this, everything was good, and I would otherwise consider this an ideal place for a short stay in the city.

The hotel is in the city center. It's a 10-minute walk from the Dublin Express airport bus stop. There are many bus options nearby to get to other attractions, and most Galway tour group meeting points are also in this area. The bathrooms and showers are very clean, and the staff cleans them frequently. The only downside is that accommodation prices in Dublin are generally very expensive.

I so much loved the lodge, it was so very clean, the location was so easy as it is just few minutes walk from the Dublin city center, the most amazing part is that the airport bus 41 stops right in front ot the Abbott Lodge so using google map is also very easy. The service is top notch and the reception is 247. Room so clean and the bed is big even with extra bed for kids.

I really enjoyed my stay. The pub is great in the common area. Amazing price for the pint. The people were also great, they made us feel very welcomed. The only thing to be aware is that some of the rooms have little space between the beds. So it can become a bit claustrophobic if you want to move around a lot. But I only used for sleeping so it didn't bother me.

The hotel isn't far from the station. The room was actually quite spacious, but the layout wasn't very practical, making it cramped when trying to organize belongings around each bunk bed. The top bunk was too low, and you couldn't even sit up straight on the bottom bunk. Underneath the bottom bunk, there were two large metal baskets for luggage, which looked big, but my 22-inch suitcase couldn't fit, so I could only use it for my backpack. There were no privacy curtains, but each bunk had a light, an outlet, and a small shelf. The room had a private toilet and shower, but the exhaust fan would loudly hum as soon as the light was turned on. You also had to make your own bed (put on the sheets, pillowcase, and duvet cover) and remove them and take them to the front desk when checking out. There's an elevator, which is a plus.

Great experience. The room was clean and smells good when we arrived. They provided the toiletries, utensils, and they have washing machine, tumble dryer, water kettle, and microwave. They have almost what you need. They are very accommodating, and responsive. The location wasn’t too far from all places that we went. We’ll recommend this hotel.

Les lits sont confortables. Assez bien situé, pas trop loin du centre 25 min à pieds. Le yellow café à côté, est excellent pour prendre son petit déj. La douche correspondant à la chambre n'est pas dans la chambre mais très proche, assez spacieuse et propre

The hotel is right next to a bar that plays music and has live bands until 2.30am. Our room was on the first floor the side of this, it was not good after a long travel day. The hotel itself was a good location and clean, if you’re going for nightlife I recommend, if you’re going for day drinking and a good nights sleep steer clear!
