Ariel House

Quiet abode in a wonderful part of Dublin

This is a beautiful hotel and we enjoyed our 2-night stay but would not likely return due issues with the room. The main areas are stunning. The drawing room offers a quite space to relax, with drinks and snacks provided. The breakfast, in the sunlit conservatory, is absolutely gourmet. The staff are friendly and helpful, provided a map and made great suggestions on where to eat (including a free drink at The Cow). They stored our bags when we arrived at 11 am and early check-in was offered for 40€ (which we declined). We appreciated that our luggage was moved to our room, up one the flight of stairs, before we checked in later that night. We booked a family room ($500 CAN/ night in July) and the photos on the listing looked very luxe and spacious. The bedroom was nicely decorated, but the bathroom was as afterthought: bland, beige and in desperate need of maintenance. The blamd ceramic floor tiles were cracked, the sink was offset from the pedestal, everything felt unfinished/poorly done. I could excuse the decore if the bathroom was pristine, but the lack of upkeep was surprising. The beds looked comfy, but the mattresses were tired and the sheets were scratchy and uncomfortable. Considering Ariel House is part of a large hotel group and advertises "boutique elegance", the room did not meet expectation and was inconsistent with the rest of the hotel. A few updates would make a big impact and deliver a true elegant and luxury experience.

The staff at Ariel house were helpful and friendly. Shariff helped us with directions and our heavy luggage. Saikrupa was very obliging and friendly bringing us our breakfast making sure we had our coffees . I would highly recommend everything about this place to anyone wanting to stay in Dublin . Just wonderful

It was too hot in the room. Need some fans to circulate the air

Very pleasant stay. Wonderful staff & delicious breakfast! Rooms spotless!

I felt like I time traveled and was a true guest here. If I ever come back to Ireland and have to stay somewhere in Dublin, I will be staying at the Ariel House again.

Great place to stay very central with lovely local amenities- Staff so friendly and professional- Parking available at no extra cost which is good as most city parking expensive My only complaint is sleep disruption due to the very noisy adjoining room doors banging when people leave or return- perhaps some cushioning on door frames

.

The property was great and quite unique and well positioned. The staff were understanding and took the time when he had a minor issue which did not detract from our stay.

Beautiful hotel with great staff. Afternoon tea and coffee was lovely and th ability to buy and share a bottle of wine delightful. International travelers delight.

We had a good stay 2 rooms. Facilities and staff good. Car park was helpful but limited spaces. One Room had been refurbished and the other had an older bathroom ... a little dated but functional. I would return to this hotel without reservation.

We had a great stay! Clean rooms, great breakfast, and friendly staff.

The staff couldn’t be more helpful, perfectly located place that I couldn’t recommend more

Great location for the arena and also very close to the DART station for travel into the city centre. Very well decorated and comfortable rooms. The breakfast every morning was brilliant and staff were attentive and eager to help. Would definitely recommend and return to if/when we visit Dublin again.

Lovely accommodations at the Ariel House. The staff were all so helpful and welcoming. The rooms were well equipped and the made to order breakfast was delicious.

We booked the junior suite and it was fantastic! The breakfast being included is a bonus. The staff was very helpful and accommodating

Very responsive and helpful staff. Breakfast is great. Beds are comfortable. Highly recommend.

This was my first time traveling to Dublin, so I was a bit anxious about whether I would be in a good area while also having easy access to the city. Ariel House was the PERFECT location. It was a short 3 min walk to the train station, so we could be in the downtown district within a 10-15 minutes, but we were far enough away to get away from the hustle and bustle of life. It's also a stone's throw from the Aviva Stadium, so if someone is attending an event at that venue, Ariel House is within walking distance. The room was beautiful and the complimentary breakfast each morning was delicious. I'm from the US and get the typical "continental" style breakfast, but this was far beyond that. We were able to eat a hot breakfast, have a cup of coffee/tea/juice, and ease into our day. I HIGHLY recommend Ariel House with it's beautiful Victorian Style drawing room and spacious suites.

This was a wonderful property to stay at. The staff was very friendly and attentive to our needs, and very aware and invested in making our stay wonderful, quickly addressing even the smallest concern. The location was very quiet. Breakfast had nice choices. The room was spacious.

Lovely property set in a leafy area of Dublin.
