Nice little room for a solo traveler like me, it was a little confusing knowing where to go at first. Just go up to the metal gate that google maps shows you and go through it's open. There is no kitchen just a bathroom and bed but there is plenty of places to grab a bite to eat nearby. Also many tours are available nearby.

This is an excellent budget friendly location. When we stayed at the end of July, the place was very quiet, meaning we were able to sleep well. It is immediately behind a tram stop (Grangegorman), which is incredibly useful for travelling to and from the city centre. When we arrived at the airport, we went to the airport supermarket in the building opposite arrivals and bought a 72hr Tourist Leap Card for €18. This made getting around easy. Trams do run late and start early, the noise of which can be heard from the accommodation, so might disturb some people. It's a hall of residence and every 8 rooms have a shared kitchen in a wing that can only be accessed with your key card. The place was very clean and had a nice atmosphere. We bought food from a Tesco in Phibsborough (next tram stop up) and cooked and ate in the kitchen. Washing up liquid etc is supplied. There is also a large sofa, if youd like to relax but not sit on your bed! The rooms contain a small double which is OK for a short break. We had a 'deluxe room, which had a small separate seating area (one chair). Unfortunately, couldn't use this area as the light wasn't working. I reported it immediately to reception who said it would be fixed right away but this didn't happen. Some reviews reported that the location has some antisocial behaviour. We didn't experience this at all. Overall, Highfield House is a great budget friendly option for a short break to Dublin.

It’s a student residence used for non-students in the summer. It delivers what I promise is no more than all. That’s why I read it as average. Would’ve been your short air air-conditioning. Also, if the profit happens to be around the outdoor court basketball or whatever and then it’s hard to sleep until around eight 9 o’clock. Also be aware it’s far away from downtown. I wanted, but it’s about 45 minute walk to temple lane

A decent place to stay given prices in Dublin. Wi-fi strong although without password protection. Basic amenities were in the room, as presented online in advance, and everything worked. The room was spacious, although the window was inconveniently located just next to the bed and it was difficult to keep air circulation with the window blinds down.

Highfield House is a substantial disappointment. The room was small and not clean. The details listed on Expedia regarding there being an “in-room full-sized refrigerator/freezer” and “in-room microwave” is completely untrue. This is not a hotel quality establishment – it is a student hostel at best. Expedia notes that: “This property received multiple high ratings from couples”. I don’t see how this can be the case. The double bed – which is up against the wall on one side – is smaller than the average double bed in the United States. The property is also noisy, including throughout the night. Very (very!) disappointing.

The hotel is definitely a dorm. Expect your room to be a dorm room. There is no air conditioning. If you ask for a fan to use, depending who is at their counter. They will tell you that they got rid of them after COVID-19 and did not replace them. If you press harder and enough times, they will try to get one when it is turned in. There is a large bus garage right next door to the buildings so if you are on the outside on the right, your sleep will be disrupted and you are unable to leave the window open to cool things off because of the noise from the buses and the tram that passes on that side as well. The "common areas" during our stay in building K were never cleaned - there was leftover dishes, food, wine glasses, garbage all over the counters and in the sink. In two days, it was never cleaned. I would recommend you find another spot to stay. The trams running below the window stopped around midnight but started back up around five I think it was. It truly was terrible

The accommodations are basically a student dorm. You have a small private room and a nice common area you share with six other rooms. Worked well for us as the tram stop was right next door. If your window faces the tram stop it does get noisy.
