“Maples House Hotel struck me as a particularly welcoming Dublin option, located as it is in a leafy residential neighborhood near the Botanic Gardens. The fact that it's family-run no doubt contributes to that attentive atmosphere, and the Edwardian building has been renovated to highlight its original charm. I think this could be a good choice for travellers seeking a quieter, more personal experience close to the city center.”

Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Maples House Hotel offers good value, especially considering its location in a quiet residential area, a short walk from Drumcondra bus and train stops and with convenient access to the city center and attractions like the Botanical Gardens. The building itself is a Georgian house with a well-kept landscaped garden. While most found the beds comfortable, a few guests have mentioned that some rooms could use some updating. it's a handy location for town, Croke Park, and DCU.
