Gorgeous hotel, nice thought out into the room and decor, staff all very friendly and helpful, breakfast was really great, bed was super comfy, what more could we ask for? Oh it was in a great location for a quick trip to Dublin for a concert and some cocktails. Not sure if it’s what you’d book for a quiet or serene type stay as city is busy and noisy at times but it was really perfect for us

Fantastic staff

Our 2 nights stay were great. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The room was big, comfortable and clean. The breakfast was good and a lot of choices. We will definitely stay there again.

Short stay

Pros: Its character a touch of old and modern style. the location is excellent for people who are visiting without a car. Close to luas, dart, and rail.
Cons: I was not around long enough to make any suggestions.
Location: Plenty of bars and restaurants in Temple bar.Public transport dart, luas, rail and bus are all within easy walking distance.
I found the staff very welcoming withot being over the top. I did not use the bar or restaurant during my stay. The bedroom was well laid out. It was very clean and comfortable. The bathroom was well equipped with toiletories. I had a good sleep and only noticed noise when another guest took a shower at 6.30am. I would return to the Clarence and I would like to visit the Restaurant on my next trip.

Really enjoyed fantastic location. Huge room.

Would recommend it in a heartbeat. Lovely restaurant on site. Huge bedroom and no noise pollution even with a large smoking area of a bar directly outside.
