General

The property features onsite restaurants.

“From what I gather, its prime spot near Dublin Castle and Temple Bar makes exploring effortless; plus, eco-friendly practices and high-tech rooms appeal to modern sensibilities. A Full Irish breakfast fuels the day, while nearby restaurants like Sole and Darwins tempt in the evening. To me, this feels like a well-considered base for a Dublin adventure.”

The Chancery Hotel is frequently praised for its modern, clean rooms equipped with smart technology. Many guests appreciate the spaciousness and comfort, with some rooms offering pleasant views. Its location near Dublin Castle and a short walk from Temple Bar is often highlighted, even though a few guests have noted that the Guinness served at the bar wasn't the best they had in Dublin.

faulty air conditioningdifficult parking
the air conditioning didn't work despite contacting the team repeatedly. they blamed it on being an "eco" hotel, but i expect good sleep at those prices. this impacted my plans because i was exhausted. no on-site parking or service made it difficult with my knee and back issues. it ruined my trip.

fabiola and francesco at the reception were professional and friendly, i must say. the coffee bar served a great cortado, a perfect start to the day. emily gave excellent treatments in the spa, it's a must visit i think. the room offered convenient technology and felt very comfortable.
the hotel turned out to be cashless, which i found inconvenient because i had planned to pay in cash and using a credit card overseas carries extra charges..
