We had two rooms, one was lovely and bright and the other was an odd-shape, smaller and much dingier than the other room. The rooms were the same category so should have been a similar standard.

Go somewhere else

We had initially booked a riverview toom, one of the more expensive options. When we got there it was not one of the rooms with in room laundry (silly us assumed the nicer of the rooms would have it). Went to the front desk and they said it would be a downgrade to get a room with it, but we took it. Went out saw the sights in dublin came back to go to sleep and staryed coughing to the point of throwing up. Could not use the air in the room at all the vents were black and hadnt been cleaned. My husband and i both got sick, but i had it worse throwing up and coughing all night. Couldnt get more than a quick nap in at a time. It was awful. I do not recommend this place.

Zanzibar Locke was perfect for our stay. Located just across the ha’penny bridge from the temple bar area and within walking distance to most tourist attractions and restaurants (within 1 mile). The staff was very friendly and informative and the hotel was clean and tidy. My wife and I stayed for 7 nights

From check in to checkout it was a lovely place to stay. As far as location for a Dublin trip, it does not get better for location with access to all sites within walking distance, yet, even while St Patrick Day festivities, was still secure and quiet! The breakfast cafe was convenient for a quick latte and pastry. The only reason this is not 5 star is the bed. It was in need of update since it had body divets on both sides of the queen bed and as a single, I found myself rolling into a hole throughout the night.

Lovely stay, wonderful walkability

Lovely stay! A great location as everything was walkable from here, which was amazing. Since we were there during St. Patrick’s activities we could hear the music from the Temple Bar area, but it wasn’t bad, this is just a tip—A sleep sound machine and ear plugs took care of the noise just fine. The convenience of location was beyond worth it. Felt very safe, comfy and the room was a great size for us and had what we needed. Everyone at the front desk was very nice and the cafe there was an added perk.

Happy with everything except that our shower was never hot enough. Great customer service, easy checkin, central location, large room, clean. Our coffee pot broke and they were very quick to bring a new one. Only negative was no hot shower. Warm at best. Told the front desk but no change.
