Airport Guide
Compare 5 airports near Dublin
The most convenient gateway to the city is Dublin Airport (DUB), located just 7.85 km away and handling extensive international traffic; the Dublin Express bus is the recommended, most cost-effective, and fastest choice. George Best Belfast City Airport (BHD), 142.67 km away, serves international and regional flights, with the Enterprise train being the preferred option for speed. For those arriving at Ireland West Knock Airport (NOC), 179.27 km away, bus services are the best budget option, though travel times are long. City of Derry Airport (LDY), 196.15 km distant, also requires significant transit time, with coaches providing the most balanced approach. Finally, Isle of Man Airport (IOM), at 134.44 km, relies on ferry connections combined with bus transport, which is generally time-consuming. Travelers should prioritize arriving at DUB to minimize transit complexity and costs. Always pre-book longer-distance coach services in advance, and remember that cross-border transit from BHD, LDY, or IOM significantly increases travel time compared to direct flights into the capital.

It was a great stay overall. The location was perfect. It was near the center of Dublin. But was set in a quiet neighborhood just outside it. It is a doable walk to a park set along the water. I loved the Medieval Theme. The staff was friendly. The rooms were spacious and clean. The dual shower heads are a nice setup. .Request a view of the front of the hotel. The only potential negative is the distance from the airport and the train.FromUS$188

The Harding Hotel was perfect for our family needs. The rooms have everything that you need. It was clean and comfortable. With both a bar and bistro attached to the hotel everything is at hand. It is a short walk to Temple Bar where all means of bars and eateries can be found. It is also only a short walk if you wish to visit the Guinness factory too. I would definitely stay here again if I return to Dublin in the future.FromUS$139

Such a gem of a place! Great location, very close and walkable to points of attraction yet not too close that you can still get a quiet night’s rest. It was also close to the car rental location making it a great place to start the trip.
Arrived Dublin airport early in the morning after a 16hour flight, we initially thought of just dropping the luggage and just roam around while waiting to check in.
Was so tired so we tried our luck and called ahead and asked if we could do an early check in, so we could at least freshen up. Lo and behold, they made it happen as the room was ready for us when we reached the hotel.
Truly thankful! The simple gesture allowed us to enjoy more of Dublin in the time we had.
Great service also at breakfast with a good spread and very helpful staff. Would definitely stay here again! 👍🏼FromUS$135

Upon arrival the front desk staff were not very cheerful.
The staff working the night shift (Gaston) was brilliant and very helpful.
I was originally put into a very damp and smelly room but Gaston moved me to a healthier, dry room.
The breakfast bread had spots of mould on it.
I feel that some care needs to be taken to improve this hostel.Family friendly

The Bonnington is usually my go to hotel in dublin, however the stay before this and now this stay has made me look for somewhere else in future. The staff as always were exceptional, however our room was incorrectly rang my reception at 5am, (and on a previous stay we were awoken in the middle of the night by a false fire alarm, so a full nights sleep is not a guarantee).
What was the most frustrating is the general disrepair of the hotel. The rooms are fairly small so for the higher price point you are really paying for the facilities. The smaller issues like furniture being old and leather chairs peeling and flaking were not a big problem, just a mild annoyance. However the bath/shower leaking everywhere when used from the base of the tub and leaving the floor soaking wet, the steam room being out of order and us not being informed of this when or even after booking, and the crowdedness and of the pool and other facilities because of non hotel users with memberships to the leisure clubs taking up the whole hot tub and sauna at once in personal groups was frustrating.
The room was also extremely hot, and the AC very very loud while not actually doing much to cool the room. There was nothing particularly stay ruining about it however if you’re paying over 200 euro for one night somewhere you would expect things to be at least average.
The main redemption was the friendliness and kindness of the staff.FromUS$201

The hotel is like a historical site with a beautiful appearance. The rooms are also European-style. It doesn't feel hot even without air conditioning. The lobby public area is also spacious and beautiful. The breakfast is rich. The bathroom has a shower curtain rod that is very suitable for hanging cool clothes. Although the hotel is not in the city center, the transportation is also very convenient. A taxi in and out is about 16 euros, and a taxi to the airport is about 50 euros.FromUS$141

The Merrion is a Hallmark of service and sheer quality. We arrived to be greeted by a friendly concierge and the news that our room had been upgraded to a junior suite.
Lunch in the Cellar bar was an absolute joy and friendly, well clued in staff made the experience more special.
The room was fabulous, with every comfort you could imagine. The bed was so comfortable, as were the couches.I cannot speak too highly about the service at this wonderful hotel.

I stayed at the Clayton Hotel Burlington Road and found it comfortable but not perfect. The room was spacious and clean, and the staff were friendly and helpful. The location is convenient — close enough to walk to the city centre but still quiet at night. However, the room felt a bit warm, and there was no way to open the window for fresh air. Breakfast was fine but quite expensive for what was offered, and it got very busy in the morning. Overall, it’s a decent hotel for a short stay, though I expected a little more for the price.FromUS$135

The hotel's breakfast is very rich, a combination of buffet and a la carte. There are local Irish breakfasts including black and white pudding, eggs Benny's, sirloin steak, smoked salmon, etc. The portions are sufficient and there are many kinds of fruits. The local apricots, peaches and cherries all taste very good.FromUS$414

The room is spacious and bright. The location is very safe in the embassy area. For food, there are some restaurants about 5-8 minutes walk away. Although there are not many choices, it is okay to eat. The hotel's afternoon tea is very ordinary and has no special features. It feels very comfortable and quiet to live in. I will probably stay in this hotel again next time. The Christmas atmosphere is also very good.FromUS$344

Not sure if it is a hotel renovated from a historical building🏨The room is relatively small and has a poor view outside the window. The shower water volume is not big enough. The location is good and the service is basically up to standard. Breakfast is not good for a five-star hotel.
