CChithira JojoI had a really positive stay at Gardiner House Hostel — a clean, friendly, and well-located choice for budget travellers in Dublin.
📍 Location
The location is excellent — just a short walk from major bus stops, shops, cafés, and walking distance to many central Dublin attractions like Temple Bar, Trinity College, and the Liffey bridges. It made exploring the city super convenient without having to rely on public transport.
🛏 Accommodation & Rooms
The rooms were tidy and functional with adequate storage space. Beds were comfortable for a hostel stay, and the linens were fresh. Shared bathroom facilities were kept clean throughout my visit.
The staff were friendly and helpful.
Considering Dublin can be expensive, Gardiner House Hostel offers excellent value — affordable, clean, and centrally located.
GglorynextstopMy stay at Clink i Lár was amazing! I would rate it 4/5. We booked an 8-bed room, and there was enough space in the lockers provided for our belongings. The hostel was also clean and comfortable throughout our stay.
One thing I noticed, though, was that the shower room didn’t have hooks where guests could hang their towels or clothes while showering. It would also be nice if they added a small rug or bath mat outside the shower area so guests could wipe their feet after showering.
Overall, our stay was awesome, and I highly recommend this hostel for solo travelers! I even made two new friends during our stay, which made the experience more memorable. There’s also a Japanese restaurant right next to the hostel that was super delicious. The tram station is conveniently located beside the building, and most of the places I wanted to visit in Dublin were within walking distance. Plus, having a SPAR convenience store beside the hostel made everything even more convenient.
RRaymondIyenI 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.
ผผู้เข้าพักGreat 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.
ผผู้เข้าพักManagement does not reply email requests, unfortunately. I asked to receive a refund or date change for a room shared booking as I needed a private room such day and did not receive an answer :-(
ผผู้เข้าพักReally helpful and understandable staff. Gave me a hand with the heavy luggage upstairs. Though the Trip booking made a mistake, the staff gave me a well welcome, especially in the late night arriving. By the way, the shelf by the bunk do need to be cleaned since it was with lots of dust.
ผผู้ใช้ไม่ระบุชื่อGreat location. Next to the bus stop and walkable to most tourist sites.
Highly equipped kitchen with lots of pantry and fridge storage. There is a kitchen curfew though.
Very clean. Noticed cleaners everyday doing their task.
Will stay again
