Cozy room but loud due to doors shutting and hallway noises. The shared living room areas are nice. The on site breakfast was very good. Had it both times I was there. Location is a bit of a ways from the city center.

Very nice, historic, Victorian style house. Breakfast every morning was great. 30 minutes from the airport. 1-2 miles from City Center, which was great for us because we love to walk, but also far enough away from the crowds of downtown. Would definitely consider going back

Highly recommend

I cannot say enough good things about the Ariel House. It's charming, inviting and welcoming. The room are very clean. Bathrooms are small but the walk in shower was a big plus. Breakfast was good. Nice selection on the menu. The only down fall is there is no lift. Quite a few steps, However, Emerson was very helpful carrying our suitcases to our rooms.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Excellent Hotel.

An elegant accommodation option for discovering Dublin and its surroundings. I would classify it as a boutique hotel, where the Victorian atmosphere and attention to detail are paramount. Its rooms are spacious, bright, and very comfortable. And its food, specializing in delicious breakfasts, is very good and high-quality. Another highlight of this hotel is its staff: friendly, helpful, and willing to help at any time. We spent four nights as a family and were very happy with our stay, recommending it.

Nice historical building with well appointed rooms and great breakfasts. Good location. On the negative side, it feels like staff lacks training and customer attention. Every time you approached them with a question, they made it feel like you were interrupting them and were an imposition. Your job as hotel staff is to look after your guests.
