Maples Bistro Restaurant in Dublin

Excellent, charming place to stay. The rooms were very clean and the beds very comfortable. Very close to the center and with incredibly friendly staff. I would definitely stay again. I loved it!

The Maples House Hotel is a gorgeous old property with a lot of charm and beautiful aesthetics. As an American traveler used to larger U.S. hotel rooms, I do think expectations should be adjusted a bit going in, but there were definitely positives. The biggest upside was the staff allowing us to check in around 5:30 a.m. after an overnight flight, which was honestly fantastic and greatly appreciated. The hotel is also located in a lovely neighborhood just outside the city center, and it’s only about a 10-minute walk to the nearest bus stop, making it fairly convenient for getting around Dublin. That said, the room situation was difficult for two travelers. We booked a double room, but the room we received was extremely small. The twin bed was too short for me at 5’11”, and there was barely enough room for both of us and our luggage. We swapped sleeping on the floor and in the bed for the two nights we stayed, as both of us would not fit in the bed at the same time. The bathroom was also very cramped, and we initially only received one towel and had to request another. There’s also no air conditioning, which I understand is common in many European hotels, but it’s something American travelers should be aware of. Because the windows needed to stay open for ventilation, noise became a major issue. You could hear neighboring rooms clearly, even at normal speaking volume, and unfortunately our neighbors were loud throughout the night. Since the hotel also functions as an event space, late-night parties and people gathering outside added even more noise. The shower drainage was another frustration. We had to keep turning the water on and off while showering because the water pooled so quickly. Overall, the building itself is beautiful and the early check-in and location were definite positives, but the room size, noise levels, and bathroom issues made the stay less comfortable than we had hoped.

We had my daughter 1st communion here recently. The hotel is really charmy and cute. You dont feel like you are in a huge hotel full of big fance glassy windows and big halls. Instead you feel like you are in a cute town villa. Food was fresh/ tasty and with good variety. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Big thank you to the manager for being available and so helpful. Thank you Maple for an unforgettable moments my family had during the communion.

Stayed at Maples House Hotel for a couple of nights. It's not flashy, no frills to speak of, but it's warm and comfortable and sometimes that's all you need. The room was clean, bed decent, everything in working order. Nothing that'll end up in a design magazine, but it felt lived-in rather than tired. Cosy in the proper sense, not the estate agent sense. What really stood out was the staff. Genuinely lovely, the sort of people who remember your order and ask how your day went without it sounding rehearsed. There's a bar and restaurant downstairs, nothing fancy, but perfectly fine for an evening when you can't be bothered heading back into town. The walk to the city centre is reasonable, about twenty minutes or so, which means you get a bit of quiet at night without feeling stranded. It's far enough to escape the chaos but close enough that you're not spending a fortune on taxis. We found ourselves quite thoughtfully enjoying the stay, which is a strange way to put it but feels right. It's not a destination hotel. It doesn't pretend to be. But the people working there clearly care, and that papers over a lot of minor shortcomings. For the price, it felt fair. I'd go back.

I booked the Maples for my daughters confirmation party. It was an amazing day and all staff were very helpful. A great day was had by all xx

Nice family hotel. Great staff, great location close to bus stops and DART into town. Getting a bit frayed around the edges, (renovations coming soon) but still a nice little place to stay. Parking problematic

The hotel is located in a quiet neighborhood. It's a 40-minute walk to the city center. The room was small. The walkways between the beds were a bit narrow. The wardrobe was spacious. There was plenty of room to unpack.

Our room was very hot, when I asked about the heating I was told that if the room didn’t cool down then they would move me into another room so that was good. The shower was a challenge, it had thunderous pressure and water was actually spraying out the side of the shower head but it quickly lost pressure and water was gently coming out, I did not report it as I was only there for one night. Location was good and staff were friendly.

Quiet residential area staff were very nice and helpful

Great service and food was delicious. Friendly staff. Have been here several times. Go here when I'm in Dublin.
