Merrion Square Studios

If you are okay with self check-in, then this a great place. Super location, I was on the ground floor but felt safe.

The room was very decent. It was clean, the bed was comfortable, and it had enough space for two people comfortably. It was nice having the kitchenette, although the pots didn't work perfectly with the element. The location was convenient for what we wanted to see in the city. The only issue was the self check-in. I didn't receive the message in advance that requested a deposit to get the code to get in as I was mid-air and navigating the airports to get to Dublin. I had to turn on roaming and phone the hotel/call centre a few times because the messages from expedia weren't coming through quickly. It was pretty stressful not being able to get in or hear from anyone with your luggage in the street and being tired after an 8 hour flight. Check out was very easy though.

Room was very clean , was in an ideal area for bars & restaurants. Parking was free right outside the property on Sundays. only fault, we were on the ground floor of the property and our room was very visible from the street as people walked past. When the blinds were drawn the room was very dark. The street was extremely busy when we were there so this was quite challenging. Overall would stay again but not on the ground floor.

Studio apartment no reception but we had no issue once deposit paid online with instructions re codes and room number emailed well before check in. Apartment had good amenities for cooking but our stay was very short and we were gone by 6am. Great location and nice pubs and restaurants around.

Spacious studio Kitchen 2 beds great location terrible check in experience but on site person very helpful

Room was clean, fully equipped and in that matter we can't complain. But we had a problem with check in to our room (need to call to reception, send passport photo on email which didn't go smoothly, after all we waited long minutes in hall waiting to get out keys) and later with safety. It was easy to stranger from outside to distrube us early in the morning and we were worried about leaving our things while going out of the room. Staff reacted quickly with changing code to the main door and we understand that accidents like those happen, but it doesn't change the fact that it was bothering and definitely lower our comfort.

Hotel is comfortable and well located, aside from a musty-smelling bathroom, but there are all kinds of weird hoops to jump through before you can actually get your room. After they take payment, they send a mesage with a spammy-looking link asking for a 100 euro security deposit if you want to access your room, which is accompanied by a warning from hotels . com to "Never provide credit card information in a message or on a website after completing your booking. Don't make any electronic payments outside of our platform." Turns out, in this case, you need to ignore that warning. Then there was another form to fill out. No staff on site. Multiple codes to access your key. Once you're there it's fine, but it's not the most straightforward or reassuring process to get there, and crossed-wire messaging from hotel and reservation platform didn't help.

Check in was difficult without WiFi. Confusing. Maybe share WiFi password when codes are shared.

The check in was difficult without wifi. Maybe give the password when codes are shared? Very basic accommodations.

Kjøkkenet var ok, flere butikker i nærheten.

A problem with a smoke alarm beeping all night interrupted one nights sleep. The staff handled my complaint very well and offered suitable compensation. The room itself and good with plenty of space. Highly recommend the Tang cafe across the road, excellent food and coffee.

nice room

Idéalement situé calme et propre bonne literie parfait !

This is a hard place to review as it is not the norm. Our stay was for 5 nights. During that time, we requested a room change. There were some differences between rooms #1 and #2. Impressive that they were able to turn a 1700s building into rentable apartments. Room #1 was a bit more "authentic" with the original walls (?). Pros of Room #1 were that it was very large and spacious. It was surprisingly quiet even though it looked out on the alley street. Cons: the floor was dirty--especially when rubbed with a wet paper towel--turned it black. You don't want to walk barefoot on it. There is an extra fire door that leads outside. There was a significant air gap around it that my husband tried filling in with brochures although I don't think there were any bugs around to come in. One evening we came in and there was a significant scent of sewer gas. After that night, we requested to be moved to another room. Room #2 was less big but the handicap enabled bathroom was huge. It was a nicer room all around. Also very quiet. Different flooring which was much cleaner. Management was responsive via email for our requests, i.e., more toilet paper, cooperative about changing rooms, etc. No reception but someone happened to be there to check us in. Kitchen: Selection of silverware, pots/pans--what you would want for light needs. Microwave and refrigerator were clean and fine. Heated towel rack worked without fuss. Very unique place for the flexibly minded.

Chambre bruyante

The check in process on this site with these kind of apartments without reception are always lacking. I had to contact them to receive the email about the deposit payment. This is typical and not just for this particular place. The apartment was large and new. Big plus for not hearing any neighbours. Posh part of town about 15 minutes from the main shopping street and 20 minute walk from the main bar area. There was some cutlery that I didn’t use due to it not being properly clean but apart from that I can't really fault this place.

Property address is not correct. Entrance on another street. No front desk. No code given to get into apt. You must pay 100 euro deposit by clicking on a 15 line suspicious looking hyper link to get door code. ( even tho Hotels is "all in" pricing). This was NOT made clear! There was no one answering the phone x3. One cup, one wine glass in apt etc.

Super sejour ! Rien a redire sur la chambre Juste attention a ma faïence arrachée dans la douche sinon top ! Personnel super réactif. Je recommande

Really clean great place and very close to city centre

It has a lot of potential being in a nice area, and allowing for more autonomy as a guest, but the upkeep does not equal the price point.
