    This place suits me perfectly, providing free wi-fi in rooms, 24-hour security, and a flat-screen TV. The staff helped me with my elderly parents during my first stay, which I still remember fondly. Highly recommend it!

    Recommend for a weekend rest

    Charming room, comfortable amenities, and the great location made our stay enjoyable as it was just a ten-minute walk from Tara Street, perfect for exploring the area effortlessly.

    great location
    comfy amenities

    Had a fantastic time with friends! The location was perfect, just a short walk to Temple Bar and Trinity College. Our room was spacious and quiet with comfy amenities, making it a great place to unwind. I recommend enjoying dinner at nearby pubs and taking a stroll along the river afterward.

    disappointing policies

    The Merchant House offers charming, spacious rooms with a fantastic location close to Dublin's attractions, making it very convenient. However, the lack of an elevator and disappointing cancellation policies left a sour note on our experience. Still, the hospitality was appreciated.

    quirky decor
    poor shower pressure

    A cozy stay with character

    Our room was charming and spacious, filled with quirky decor. The location was unbeatable, just steps from vibrant Temple Bar and great eateries. Truly a unique experience!

    The shower had poor water pressure, making it challenging to enjoy. Plus, noise seeped in from outside—ear plugs were definitely necessary for a restful sleep.

    can't wait to come back

    Great spot right in Temple Bar! We stayed in the W.B. Yeats Suite with comfy amenities like a flat-screen TV, tea/coffee maker, and a private bathroom. Super clean and soundproof windows made it quiet despite the lively area. Loved the thoughtful touch of complimentary ear plugs for extra comfort. Definitely a cozy, unique place!

    I thoroughly enjoyed the charming decor and the cozy, personal atmosphere throughout the hotel. The spacious common areas were beautifully designed, making it a delightful spot to relax after exploring the vibrant streets of Dublin.

    Additional seating options would enhance comfort for seniors.

    artistic decor
    generous size
    unique character
    access hassle

    The Oscar Wilde Suite shines with character, featuring rich artistic decor that gives it a distinct flair. Its generous size makes it an inviting space, perfect for unwinding after a day exploring local pubs and attractions.

    Accessing the building is a hassle, with multiple code-locked doors creating a bit of a maze, especially after a long journey. The absence of a lift means a steep climb up four narrow flights of stairs, which becomes annoying if you're hauling heavy bags. During my stay, I had trouble getting the room temperature just right, leaving me chilly at times.

    spacious suite
    convenient location
    unwelcoming check-in
    noisy surroundings
    poor bathroom facilities

    The Oscar Wilde Suite was spacious, quiet, and equipped with a helpful fridge and minibar. The location was incredibly convenient, allowing easy access to local pubs and restaurants. However, the check-in process felt unwelcoming, requiring appointments and access codes that made it frustrating after a long journey. Additionally, noise from neighboring rooms disrupted our sleep, and the bathroom facilities fell short of expectations with a poor shower experience and inadequate warmth control.

    stunning decor
    low water pressure

    Stunning Art Deco decor that makes you feel like you're in a museum.

    Shower water pressure was quite low, which was disappointing.
