Hotel Details

Location

In the lively Smithfield/Grangegorman area, 15 minutes' walk from Temple Bar and the city centre. A tram stop is right outside.
The property sits in a lively residential and cultural area, 600 metres from Jameson Distillery and 2 km from Phoenix Park. The cobblestone streets of Smithfield offer a variety of traditional pubs, independent restaurants, and weekend markets. The nearest tram stop (Luas Red Line) is a 1-minute walk, providing direct connections to the city centre, Heuston Station, and the Point Village. Dublin Airport is 13 km away - a 20-minute taxi ride (approx. €25) or a 45-minute bus journey with several routes available. For sports fans, Aviva Stadium is a 45-minute walk, but the Luas runs close to the stadium area. The surrounding neighbourhood is generally safe, well-lit and has a vibrant atmosphere, though some side streets near the bar can be lively until late evening.

Accommodation

Modern, en-suite rooms in a converted student residence. The property offers standard doubles, deluxe doubles, doubles with balcony, twin rooms, studio apartments, and a penthouse.
All accommodation is housed in a modern, purpose-built building with lift access. Standard double rooms are compact and feature a 120cm-wide bed (small double), making them better suited for single occupancy or a close couple. Deluxe double rooms are slightly larger but still use the same bed size. Twin rooms offer two single beds and are a more practical option for friends or those wanting more personal space. The two self-contained studio apartments include a private kitchen, while a shared kitchen is available on each floor for all other room types. Rooms feature an en-suite shower, free Wi-Fi, heating, and in later descriptions include a flat-screen TV and tea/coffee making facilities. Cleanliness is consistently rated highly, though some rooms facing the courtyard garden can be quieter than those overlooking the street. The penthouse offers panoramic city views from a private terrace.

Dining

An on-site Zambrero Mexican Restaurant serves lunch and dinner. The shared kitchens and a nearby Lidl supermarket let guests self-cater.
Dining is straightforward and self-catering friendly. The on-site Zambrero Mexican Restaurant offers burritos, tacos, and bowls for a quick meal. A coffee shop/café on the ground floor opens at 10:00, but there is no breakfast service - the shared kitchen on each floor is available for preparing your own morning meal. The surrounding Smithfield and Grangegorman area is filled with pubs and restaurants, including a traditional Irish gastropub and international spots like Vietnamese, Italian, and Mediterranean within a 5-minute walk. For groceries, a Lidl is around the corner, making it easy to stock up. If you prefer cooked meals, check in advance as some on-site dining options close early in the evening. Most guests use the kitchen for simple cooking or pick up takeaways from nearby establishments.

Leisure

A communal garden offers an outdoor space for relaxing. A games room and billiards/table tennis are available, though some equipment may be worn.
Wellness and leisure options are modest but functional. Guests can enjoy the communal garden courtyard - a quiet spot to sit outdoors when the weather permits. A games room provides free billiards and table tennis. The terrace and outdoor furniture are available for use. The neighbourhood itself offers leisure options: the nearby Phoenix Park (2 km) is great for walking, cycling, or visiting Dublin Zoo. The building has a small outdoor area with seating. For those wanting more sophisticated spa or gym facilities, several commercial gyms are within a 10-minute walk.

Amenities

24-hour front desk, luggage storage, free Wi-Fi, and a well-equipped shared kitchen on each floor. Laundry and business facilities are available for a fee.
The 24-hour front desk offers services including concierge, taxi booking, and luggage storage both before check-in and after check-out - helpful for late flights. Free Wi-Fi covers all areas and is reliable for streaming and work. The shared kitchens on each floor are equipped with a stove, refrigerator, microwave, toaster, and cooking utensils - guests are expected to clean up after use. On-site laundry with washing machines is available for a small fee. Business facilities including fax/photocopying and meeting/banquet rooms can be arranged at an additional charge. Daily housekeeping, dry cleaning, and laundry services are also available for a fee. The building is wheelchair accessible with lifts throughout, and has facilities for disabled guests including emergency cords in bathrooms and grab rails. Safety is well-covered: 24-hour security, CCTV, key card access, and smoke alarms. Board games and puzzles are available for families. No pets are allowed.

Critical Operational Notes

  • Check-in is from 15:00; check-out is at 10:00. Late check-out (up to 12:00) is available at €10 per hour.
  • Standard double beds measure approximately 120cm wide - significantly smaller than a typical double. Twin rooms with two single beds are available as an alternative.
  • No parking on site. Limited paid street parking (€3/hour, free 19:00-07:00) or Park Rite Smithfield (5-minute walk, 24-hour rates and guest rate of €10/24h).
  • Pets are not allowed. Smoking is permitted only on private balconies with the door closed.
  • Towels are supplied but daily housekeeping is available at an additional charge; the shared kitchen is cleaned regularly but guests are expected to clean up after themselves.
  • There is no lift to some upper floors - ask for a ground-floor room if you have mobility concerns, though the building does have lift access to most floors.

Top Strategic Tips

  • 01

    Check the room size and bed dimensions carefully before booking - standard double rooms have a 120cm bed, which is smaller than a typical double and may feel tight for two.

  • 02

    Request a room on the top floor or facing the rear courtyard if you are a light sleeper, as front-facing rooms and lower floors can be noisier due to street-level pubs and hallway traffic.

  • 03

    Plan to use the free luggage storage if you arrive before 15:00 check-in, so you can explore the city centre without carrying bags.

  • 04

    Use the nearby tram stop (Luas) for fast, direct access to the city centre and the airport bus stop within a 10-minute walk - this avoids the hassle of finding paid street parking.
