Hotel and location:
The Castle Hotel is a beautifully restored Georgian property situated in the heart of Dublin City Centre and is just a 2 minute walk from O`Connell Street, Dublin`s principal thoroughfare. The hotel has recently been renovated and many of the original features have been kept intact such as sweeping staircases, crystal chandeliers, antique mirrors and marble fireplaces. A 5 minute walk will take you into the heart of the city giving you access to the shops of Grafton Street, the Guinness Factory and Croke Park. The bars and clubs of Temple bar are less than a 10 minute walk away across the river and the hotel has excellent links to the airport with the AirCoach stopping directly on O`Connell Street.

"The staff are five star and wonderful"
Very good hotel. Ideal situation in Dublin 1. Clean rooms, good service; with a fine breakfast. Room a bit hot, and sometimes you can hear your neighbours in the other rooms.

The staff were extremely friendly and couldn`t do enough for you. Double room was a goods size. The food was excellent and the evening music was a nice touch. Good value for money.

"Brilliant staff"
This is a lovely little hotel with brilliant, friendly , helpful staff. The food is good also. Only let down was the terrible towels (thin, hard & very small) in the bathroom & the shower is hopeless. The water pressure is intermittent & it seems as if someone turns a tap on that reduces the hot water flow as soon as you step into it. The rooms are lovel & it is in a very accessible location .

"Comfortable room, lovely food, brilliant entertainment."
Will definitely come again - just two things - could you sort out the squeaky stairs and employ more staff for the restaurant at the weekend. Took ages to get our meal and felt sorry for them as they were rushed off their feet!
