Castle Vaults in Dublin

4-star Castle Hotel? My wife and I stayed in Dublin in July, and we were disappointed with the high price of €282.00 per night on offer, and the 4-star rating... which should be reduced. We expected a few more amenities, but the reality was that, although the hotel is historic, beautiful, and centrally located, and they serve a good, standard continental breakfast, we immediately had difficulty finding the location of our room. It's on the fourth floor, behind a fire door and a flight of steps. Could foreign guests be escorted to the rooms and carry their luggage? Unfortunately, the reception only speaks broken English. The double room was small, with a small window that was raised a hand's breadth, blocked, and covered in dust. The bus terminal is right below, and the engine is always running. No air conditioning. On the night of July 13th, it was 30°C (86°F) and very noisy. There's no safe. No mini-fridge. The small bathroom has no window and the exhaust fan is broken. The shower drain is half-clogged, causing anxiety as the water level rises. The sink is small, and there's little space to hang towels. The satellite TV or smart TV had few channels. We've been guests around the world many times and have never found a hotel claiming to be 4 stars that was so poor and so expensive! Goodbye

If you like old things, this is the place for you 😃 Our daughter loved it – lots of crooked staircases, winding corners, and what felt like a thousand ways to get to the room. Cons: Very noisy! You can hear everything from the hallway, so no privacy. Pack earplugs! We had a room facing the street – too loud with the window slightly open. Breakfast buffet for those who aren't vegan – very inviting. For vegans, there's very little choice at the continental breakfast. Allergens aren't listed, so you have to ask first what you can eat. We asked before our stay if they had vegan yogurt – no. So I brought my own breakfast. I think the price-performance ratio is inadequate. Positive: The staff is very, very friendly 😃 and I got a decaf oat cappuccino in the morning ☕

The hotel is simply wonderful! I think the facilities are fantastic (common areas, restaurant, and bar), and the service is very attentive and helpful! The food—continental breakfast and full Irish—and the dinner were really good. A truly lovely place to stay after all the tiring walking on the cobblestones in Dublin.

This hotel was perfect, the staff is lovely, it's in a great location and the restaurants serve delicious meals. We will definitely be back ❤️❤️❤️

A great experience at the hotel. It's very charming and maintains the charisma of its time. We stayed in a large family room (2 adults and 3 girls). We had a very pleasant conversation with the hotel owner, who was kind enough to greet us during one of our breakfasts. I highly recommend the waiter, Trevor, for his kindness to my family. One of my daughters had a birthday, and he arranged a surprise celebration she'll never forget, along with a dedication from the musician who was playing at the hotel.

I would like to highlight the exceptional service, the exquisite afternoon English tea specialties, and the tableware. It was a truly memorable experience!

Location is excellent in the city center. Extraordinary service and very clean. Room is very small, however.

Really great little hotel unfortunately situated in a declining area of Dublin.. Dirty and feeling of being unsafe on the street... This is not the hotels fault Dublin clean up the area

This is a budget hotel. Everything is very clean, and the breakfast is plentiful. The hotel garage is quite small. It's good value for money.

Beautiful, clean rooms, friendly, helpful staff…. Great location!! Breakfast was Fabulous!! Stay here every time I am in Dublin!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
