Clayton Hotel Dublin Airport
Great hotel very close to the airport One issue was when we landed at 11:30 PM. We had to wait in the wind and cold (40 degrees f) for about 20 minutes. I wish the bus had been parked at the airport rather than the hotel so we could have been more comfortable

Staycity Aparthotels, Dublin Castle
No breakfast unless you make it yourself in your kitchen in your room, beds were great. Bathroom very small but clean. Laundry available is used by staff as well so hard to get at.

The Residence Dublin
It's just a student accommodation thats been opened up for use during the summer. It's a nice area. Felt very safe and has some food and shopping nearby. Probably a 20 minute walk from the station and city centre. The accompdation was nice, modern and comfortable. Not as good as a traditional hotel ...
