While I can’t speak for all rooms, mine was old, mouldy around the sinks and tub. Shower was awful, there seemed to be some black putty on the top of the shower head. There are many better hotels in much better locations at this price point. I wouldn’t return.

Loved this hotel. It was in a good location, and I was easily able to make my way around the city and to bus stations. Loved my room and the view. I would say the electric window was a great feature, and it helped me manage with resting. If I travelled to Dublin again, I would book this hotel again. Staff was helpful during check-in.

I recently stayed at The Devlin in Dublin and had a fantastic experience from start to finish. Service: The staff across the board were exceptionally welcoming and attentive, making me feel right at home whether I was checking in at reception, grabbing a drink at the bar, or dining at the rooftop restaurant. Accommodations: The room was exceptionally clean, modern, and cosy—providing the perfect comfortable retreat after a day out in the city. Overall, a brilliant boutique hotel that I wouldn't hesitate to stay at again. Highly recommended!
