The noise from the street was a bit much, especially the neighborhood dog that barked at different hours of the night (should have brought my ear plugs). It was Halloween night, so this was probably the reason. Be prepared to go up and down multiple flights of stairs. The all-female bathrooms were clean and spacious as where the showers, but it was impractical to go down a flight of stairs to get..."Reviewed November 3, 2026Return • Bologna (BLQ) - Dublin (DUB)BLQ - DUB • Direct DUB - BLQ • 1 stop€861€568found 1 day agoper traveller - Latroupe Jacobs Inn

"We love the Rochestown Hotel in Dun Loagherie. This is our second year in a row of using it as a home base near my aunt and uncle. We also love being within walking distance of Forty Foot beach access and the ability to swim with other open water swimmers. This is the cleanest hotel we have stayed in for along time. We were on a 20 day vacation and stayed in over 10 places and this is by far the best place we have been this year. The bed was comfy, the room very clean and spacious,...
"The hotel was nice, however we were at the front of the hotel and it was quite noisy for a long time last night. The window didn't close properly so this didn't help. The room was nice and clean. A bottle of water in the room would have been good. Staff at reception were lovely and very helpful and the restaurant staff were very helpful. Thanks and yes I would stay here again"
"Excellent hotel!"
"Love the hotel. Every trip to Ireland we stay at a Clayton and love it. Clean, friendly staff as well as helpful. 10/10 recommend."
