The location of Dergvale suited us very well, a short walk from the city centre. The room was comfortable and we made good use of the complementary trays of tea/coffee brought up from reception, a nice touch given breakfast and tea-making facilities were not provided. The staff were friendly and welcoming, with some really helpful suggestions about pubs to eat in on our first evening and where to get a train to Sandycove.

The main thing we had an issue with was the (too our mind) slightly overdone room housekeeping on the first day. We got back at the end of the day to find all our stuff had been moved and rearranged, which felt a bit intrusive. We decided not to bother with housekeeping thereafter.

Great place! Don't be put off by the 2 stars! (Due to whatever senseless rules these were given!) The hotel is extremely clean! (I even took a picture of the bathroom grout, because I was so excited! :-)) The rooms are lovingly and nicely furnished. One notices immediately that it is a lovingly cared for family business. I have never seen such a clean bathroom, not even in a 5 star hotel!!!! Thanks for the wonderful stay!!!

The staff was very polite and accommodating. They were also very helpful with directions getting around. Downtown Dublin is a pretty easy place to navigate, but all the directions the hotel staff gave were direct and took me right where I was going. In addition, the hotel room and my bathroom were impeccably clean. I would definitely stay there again. The room was cleaned every day, and the toiletries were well chosen. I really liked the body wash!

I think coming up with a key card, or a lock with a code to get you in the front door would be a nice upgrade. There was always someone to open the door for you, but I think one of those options would be better. The rooms are on the smaller side, but I don't think there is anything to do about that. It was still a comfortable stay.

Olga and Gerald were very welcoming and kind, happy to answer any questions and orient us to the neighborhood, transit options etc. Olga brought us a fresh pot of coffee with biscuits each morning which was lovely. The location was very convenient and walkable to all we wanted to see and do in Dublin. The bus to the airport was a short walk (one city block) which was very convenient.

One thing to be aware of before booking (which we were) is that this is an older property. It thus has some charming features but also lacks some modern amenities (no lift, for example). Nevertheless the room and bathroom were clean and comfortable.

Cozy old-style and comfortable structure close to the centre. Very well maintained (the bathroom was new and impeccable) and super clean. The shower was very nice, with immediately warm water. The personnel is exceptionally friendly and available: there is always somebody at the reception, day and night, who will welcome you with a smile and some chit chat, if you want to.

For a tall/big person, the bathroom was maybe a bit difficult to manoeuvre in.

Very nice staff, always ready to help you and give you information. It's a budget hotel, rooms are not that big, but are clean and with a nice bathroom. Went in the winter, lots of cold, but the Hotel was really warm. Its a 10 minute walk from the center, and 15 minute walk from Temple Bar. There are lots of public transportation at a 2 minutes walk that can take you everywhere

The hot water pressure was low, and depending the room you are, sometimes you might have issues with the internet network. Prices in Ireland went sky rocket in everything, including the hotels.

The location of the hotel and the surrounding area are excellent. It's quick and easy to reach the city center on foot, and there are great places nearby to eat and have coffee. The transport connections are good, and it's fairly close to one of the train stations. Housekeeping is done daily, and everything is very clean and tidy.

The fixed showerhead in the shower is not very convenient, but this is quite common.

On arrival a warm and friendly welcome, with complimentary coffee or tea throughout the stay. The hotel was immaculate with great size of room and comfy spotless beds. Bathroom was a generous size with a good powerful shower, everything we needed for our stay. Great location with café, bars etc within a short walk. Will definitely be back.

The weather but it didn't spoil our brilliant weekend.

The owner and his daughter are very very kind, they made us coffee in the morning and we even got an irish Coffee in the evening. The rooms are very clean and we felt welcome. Hotels in Dublin are very expensive, and this hotel has a good price quality ratio. We can recommend this hotel.

The hotel is a bit outdated (but clean!). Unfortunately in the room next to us people were very loud, you can hear your neighbours when they are loud, so keep that in mind when you are a light sleeper bring earplugs. Other than that we liked our stay.

Fantastic hotel. The proprietors were friendly, the location was great and it was possibly the cleanest hotel I have stayed at. Would not hesitate to return or recommend. Great value for money. 24 hour reception so you didn’t need to take your key out with you.

Nothing really. No tea/coffee making facilities in the room which didn’t bother me but my friend would have liked one. However there was a sign saying hot drinks available from reception.
