Set in the heart of Dublin, 500 metres from Chester Beatty Library, Thomas Moore Inn offers air-conditioned accommodation with free WiFi and a flat-screen TV. Boasting a bar, the guest house is close to several noted attractions, around 600 metres from The City Hall, 500 metres from Dublin Castle and less than 1 km from St. Stephen's Green. The property is non-smoking and is located 500 metres from St Patrick's Cathedral. So friendly and such a great pub. The room / bathroom was incredibly clean and the bed was insanely comfortable! (My husband was pretty ready to move in)

This beautiful Victorian Guest House is set in Dublin’s prestigious D4 district. It offers en-suite rooms with free Wi-Fi.

This family-run guest house has rooms with good-quality beds, mattress hygiene care and tea/coffee making facilities. There is also a comfortable sitting room for guests to relax in. I don't have enough adjectives to describe the place which was beyond my expectations for the guest house. It was the only time I wanted to rate the place positively before I left it. I mostly had interaction with Louis and Martina and brief talk with the owner the next morning of my arrival. The warmth and the welcomeness I received was incredible. Even though the property states the check in should be between 2-7 PM I arrived later and was greeted by Louis who not only explained to me about the city but also made me some tea with biscuits. I got really big room which Martina would clean so nicely everyday and change my coffee and tea. It was a very beautiful and clean room and I enjoyed it so much I did not want to leave it. What I really appreciated about the location is that it was not too close to the centre and after a long day of walking and interacting with people it was nice to have some quite time to yourself and because it is a big house there are not so many visitors so it always felt like I am coming back home after a hard day. It is close to all the facilities you need- direct busses to city centre and the airport (!), Tesco and a small market to buy some grocery food if you need, really good cafe that serves the best toasties and breakfast for a reasonable price (Happy Out) and some more if you like. In overall I recommend the place for solo travellers (especially who are a bit introverts like myself) and couples who want a nice get a way for the weekend.

The units in the guest house are equipped with a kettle. Featuring a private bathroom with a shower and a hair dryer, units at the guest house also offer free WiFi. At the guest house, all units are equipped with bed linen and towels. How do I begin to describe the exceptional service I received and stay I has with Ann and Leanne. From a last minute early check in to an upgrade of my booked room to offering a lift where they could and providing me with fans when I found the evenings a bit hot. Nothing was too much trouble. The place was immaculate. I know it’s said a lot but I really was a home away from home, only my home is rarely that tidy! I felt completely safe as a solo female traveller and can’t wait to return with my family and book out the place.
