Overall Ratings & Reviews O'Donoghue's

Very centrally located. Windows which you can actually open. Spacious room. Very good mattress and I slept well. Clean and modern bathroom. There was a hairdryer and kettle. Furniture and the carpet are about old, but my stay was short so I did not mind. There was a small fridge, but I switched it off in the night as it made noise. In total, I had very pleasant stay.

Property was great location. There is no elevator though. Bar tenders will carry your bags up.

Considering it was quite a busy area, the room itself was quite quiet. Staff really friendly.

It was in the middle of all the activity. We had a room on the third floor so it was quiet. However, without elevators, it gave us lots of exercise. We had some anxiety about whether there would be someone to take our bags down early in the morning - we had a train to make. But our host came to the rescue and all was well.

The room was bigger than I expected, and I was impressed with the size of the overall hotel itself, given that it's tucked away next to and above a pub. A nice room and spacious bathroom. No frills, but very comfortable and clean. Definitely bring your earplugs as the pub noise goes well into the night, as you might expect. Adds to the ambiance! Nice place.

One of the greatest pubs in Dublin has rooms upstairs, who knew? Incredible location for anything in the city and terrific staff who do everything to make you feel welcome.

If you are looking for a great over the Pub experience,this is your place!!!!

This place is great. Now, you have to understand that you're above a pub and this is not a five star establishment. Dublin is not cheap but this is a great value given it's location. Yes, it got loud at night vbut it wasn't crazy. The room was spacious and clean. Everything is dated and the stairs are a challenge but I will stay here again.

O'Donoghue's is more or less in the middle of town, so very convienient for the city centre. I stayed at O'Ds this week and about 4 weeks ago, so I should have learnt from my first visit. But the rooms at O'Ds are quite dull and dingey. A coat of white paint, some brighter lights and a neutral carpet would make such a difference. Bed and pillows were comfy. TV had a handful of local stations. Wifi was good. The room was very warm, I couldn't adjust the radiator, so I opened the window. O'Ds is in the middle of town so there is a lot of foot traffic and vehicle traffic both late into the night and early in the morning! All the rooms are up narrow and quite steep stairs, and the landings and stairwells are also dull and dingey. There is a little cupboard on the landing that has a washing machine in it and that machine is on lot at all hours. I was on the top floor and heard it, my last visit I was on the first floor and heard it. The bathrooms are adequate, but the shower cubicles are very small. I am Mr Average, size wise, and I couldn't bend down to pick up the shampoo bottle. The bathrooms are not vented so the ceilings are covered in flakey paint. There was a hairdryer and kettle in both rooms. O'Ds is famous for its pub with live music, and it is a great venue, with a good range of beer. They don't do food, so breakfast needs to taken at one of a number of local cafes. A good selection of evening meals are available very locally.

Loved the ambiance of the pub, great pub, and we arrive during on a day they had live music which was amazing. Rooms were comfy, clean and appealing. Staff was great, helpful and amazing sense of humour. There is a long staircase up to the guest rooms, but they gave a helping hand. Great location to many popular places downtown, temple bar, Stephens green, whiskey museum, etc

Great atmosphere. Friendly staff. Perfectly situated.

Room was clean and comfortable. Private bathroom and necessary ameneties included. Great location, walking distance to Grafton Street, Trinity College, and plenty of restaurants. Staff was very friendly, live music played every night at the bar and a great place to get a Guinness before bed!

unavoidably noisy over a lively bar but adequate digs. high $ relative to experience but location is just wonderful

It was an OK hotel. The building is old, but the room is relatively clean. The shower is quite small, I'm OK with it except that it doesn't have a place to put the shower gel and stuff. I stayed on the top floor, noise from the bar wasn't actually a big problem. The staff are really nice and friendly.

I love Dublin and have stayed many times, this is the worst experience. My fault I did miss the bit about up 5 flights of twisting stairs , then down a further flight! In fairness I had a 20K bag and the very kind gentleman behind the bar carries it on his head to my room, getting it back down early in the morning, now that's a different story.Also when I saw that breakfast was not included in the very high price, I did not appreciate that the place was closed at breakfast time opening only at lunch time..so no Irish breakfast for me. Again I am a rather large person and almost could not get into the tiny shower, so I blame myself for not researching more closely. The bedroom was clean and tidy the first day! So paying in advance with no chance of refund...again my mistake. I take all the blame, the rooms are what they are , a room above a busy pub in a main street that has people screaming until 5 in the morning. In conclusion check what you are getting with this one, because you might be in for a bit of a shock. The pub is very busy and the Guinness is great, live traditional music in the evenings..even if you cannot get close due to the crowd of screaming party goers and hen parties....

This hotel was overpriced for what you get. Noisy at night and in the morning. There was no city view which was stated. We wasn't told there was breakfast available. Also this hotel is suitable for the infirm due to the flights of stairs. We had to go up five flights of stairs to get to our room.

2 nights and one day. a little nosy around midnight but other wise ok. the staff was great and very helpful.The room was clean and the shower was small but hot and easy to use. If you want to be in the middle of a party and do not climbing stairs this is the place.

2 nights very noisy in room from early morning on street with lorry deliveries to Spar across the street no breakfast available

The hotel staff is very friendly, the rooms are spacious, there is free WiFi and a great pub downstairs. Only the road traffic is to be heard, no noises from the pub. Great value for money.

2 star at best, you can do better for the price.
