Our stay at Kennedy's Pub was very good. The staff were friendly and attentive to restocking our room with the essentials (e.g., towels, soap, earplugs, etc.). The room is simple and straightforward, and all you need for a homebase as you explore Dublin. The only thing missing, and it is minor, is that there is no safe in your room so you need to plan for that. The accommodations have a classic pub vibe which is great. There is live music playing most evenings until quite late but the staff provide earplugs by default. The music was really good though for the days we stayed there so even though it plays late, that wasn't an issue. If we are back in Dublin we'll look to book again.

Room was spacious, shower was so powerful and extremely good valuable for money. The pub staff were all so lovely and also the vibe in the evening was so fun and lively especially the nights with live music. Bus stops right outside to get into the city centre quick or back. Also cracking breakfast.

Me and my partner stopped here for a long weekend and it was absolutely perfect for us! It’s about a 15/20 minute walk into Dublin centre, which was ideal for us as a young couple who wanted to walk a bit and see the sights! The atmosphere in Kennedys is phenomenal and even though there was live music, we both slept very soundly! Leroy and the team looked after us! Everything was amazing and it was an wonderful authentic Irish pub to stop in! Will recommend!!!

The accommodation at Kennedy's Pub is modern, spacious and clean. It's in a good location on Drumcondra Road, easily accessible from the city centre by at least a couple of bus lines. The area around is nice with plenty of places to eat and drink and Kennedy's itself is a very nice pub. Also, within walking distance of the National Botanic Garden, well worth a visit in good weather and historic Glasnevin Cemetary next to that.

(1) Rooms are decent standard ((2)Ear plugs provided for music nights (but slept well without them) (3) Staff were welcoming and helpful with info. (4) Savings made staying at Drumcondra (about 8 stops to O'connell St) helped pay for Dublin Bus Hop-on- Hop-off Bus Tours, Leap Card (bus fares), and visits to Kilmainham Gaol and Dublin Castle

Check in was wild because it was game day and the pub was overflowing with people. But I absolutely LOVED staying at Kennedys. All the staff were so nice, (even when I blew a fuse) and it was in a really cool part of Dublin. 10/10 would stay again.

We had a layover in Dublin and decided to stay outside of the city center to get to our early flight with little traffic. We found the hospitality and service very nice. The room is dated, but we spent very little time in the room and just enjoyed the neighborhood. Irish music on Monday at Kennedy's was a treat. Despite the dated rooms it was clean, we'd stay here again because the people were so nice and the price was modest.

Airport stopover

An excellent location if heading to the airport the next day, or if going to a match obviously, but a little out of the centre, so perhaps best for those already familiar with the city. Also worth noting that it doesn't seem to have a reception as such, although the staff at the bar are happy to help with any questions.
