Great place to stay in Dublin

Hotel is on the edge of the Temple Bar area but central to everything. Buses and tour buses stop nearby with convenient restaurants in the area. Clean and very comfortable rooms - plush towels and bathrobes in the room. Staff were wonderful- very helpful and went out of their way to assist. Attached restaurant was very good as well.
