I would certtainly come again.

I would certtainly come again. Though not in the city centre, it is easy and convenient to get there. The air coach bus stop is just outside the hotel. Buses into the town centre are convenient. The hotel was nice and quiet despite the number of guests and service was very good. Staff very helpful.

Bewely Hotel, Ballsbridge, Dublin

Really easy to get to from the airport about 8 euros. Great location for tours north and south. Food excellent. Bring wash clothes + alarm clock. They have most EU electrical plugs + 110/220 AC and great web connection free. Only use Orbitz to make your res. No kidding. You will see why when you get there. Trust me. Wm. A.

Great time in Dublin

Bewley's did a great job hosting us during our 4 day stay in Dublin. Great clean rooms, and excellent access to downtown via the busses and DART. Handy, excellent home away from home.

The DART day trip ticket of apx. 6 euros ea. was a great deal. We visited seaside towns north and south of Dublin for a whole day, from the local station. Great unsung amenity.

Quiet and Restful

The historic building and the grounds of this hotel are very beautful. It was an easy and interesting 30-45 minute walk to the downtown area of Dublin from the hotel. Local buses stop right in front of the hotel and so does an airport bus. It is a nice 15 minute walk to the beach and to the shoreline walking paths and parks. Lots of shops and stores in the area also.

Very nice, clean hotel, its about

Very nice, clean hotel, its about a 30 minute walk into town, but buses and taxi's are also available nearby. The bar is reasonably priced for a city hotel, but there are also plenty of pubs in the area if you want a change.

Fantastisches Hotel

Hotel ist nur 4 Minuten Fußweg von der Bahn entfernt, die direkt in die Innenstadt fährt. Bushaltestelle (auch Richtung Flughafen) sowie Taxistände genau vor der Tür. Hotel hat eine sehr gut ausgestattete Bar. Außerdem sind weitere Restaurants, Bars und Geschäfte in der Umgebung. Ansonsten ist die Lage des Hotels schön ruhig, gut zum entspannen und man kommt trotzdem sehr schnell in die Innenstadt. Nur zu empfehlen!!!
