“This adults-only guesthouse places you squarely in Temple Bar, yet soundproofing ensures tranquility. I found the themed suites a distinctive touch, drawing on Dublin's literary past. Breakfast requires a short walk, but the payoff is a memorable three-course meal. I respect the hotel's commitment to creating a secure and personalized experience, despite the absence of a traditional reception.”
