Travelodge Ireland - accommodation in Dublin

The Marlin Hotel is beautiful and perfectly located in central Dublin near St Stephens green and Grafton Street. Very modern, clean well-appointed lobby, and lounge area. The room was very clean and met our needs although a bit small/cramped. The only issue was that our room key card continued to fail. We needed to have it reprogrammed five times. Although this was inconvenient, the staff were extremely polite and responsive. I would stay at the Marlin again.

I booked a single-occupancy room without realizing the property was more of a hostel, but despite that, I still had a very enjoyable stay. The location is excellent for anyone looking to see Dublin’s main sights or spend time around the Temple Bar area. Everything I wanted to visit was within walking distance, and having a bar and coffee shop in the hotel open 24/7 was extremely convenient. The rooms are fairly basic but comfortable. The pay-to-use lockers and laundry facilities were also convenient and relatively easy to use through an app. The staff were consistently pleasant, helpful, and accommodating throughout my stay. The hallways can get a little noisy at night, particularly when there are a lot of younger guests staying at the property, but the staff were diligent about keeping the noise under control after 10 p.m. Overall, I’d recommend this place if you’re looking for relatively affordable, centrally located accommodation and don’t need a lot of extra amenities.

Clean hotel, comfortable beds. Very large hotel. Restaurant was VERY busy!!!
