Dublin Hostels - Reviews and Rates

We grabbed a quick breakfast at Tara Lodge this morning then walked down the narrow street to Starbucks and were smugly bemused to find that my Starbucks Gold Card carried the same weight in Belfast as it does in Topeka. Hello again to the 10% discount! Back in the hotel parking lot, the cars were crammed in so tightly we actually had to perform...

From the horses mouth....or for others.... From the source...Guiness ever so fresh. Susan: Stayed at Abigails hostel for two nights. Six beds to the room and seven people sleeping the first night. Older couple sharing a bed below me. Economizing I guess. When we first entered the room the woman was laying on the bed with a t-shirt and panty hose...

Ok, let's get you caught up, let's see where were we....oh yes, i got back to the hostel and my roomie was all snoodled with her boo watching American music video's on her laptop. said hello and went about my business of getting myself packed and organized and hit the hay with them still doing their thing. thank goodness for earplugs and eye mas...

Quality trip, plenty of drinking and a good bit of sight seeing for a couple of days! Managed a trip to an old prison, i forget its name now, but visited the execution spot and the lot. Made it to the guiness factory and even managed a pint after the night before, mind u it was free! Got some good photos and managed to watch the fa cup final whi...

Hi all, St Patrick's day - we were up at 6am to get ready (some of the others in the room found a great place (City Hotel Pub) that they thought opened at 8am with great couches to watch the parade and the Rugby) We leave the hostel 8ish and make our way to the pub to discover that it was not opening till 10.00am - we sat in a cafe till 9.30am a...

Our stop over in Dublin is complete, and now for some insightful reflections... Day 6 After a quick flight we touch down in the capital of the Emerald Isle, Dublin. A preliminary meander around the town reveals the convenience of our hostel location, nicely in a part of town called Temple Bar... presumably the bars are temples rather then vice-v...

First day out of the country.... Ok- so I have only been in Ireland for less that 12 hours and I have already had a blast. Even the ride from the airport to Tannis' flat in City Central was nothing but amusing. The cab driver had a nephew that had lived in Cayman for several years, once we found this common link between us I had quite the animat...

And they say it's never sunny in Dublin! Today was absolutely beautiful, I'm staying in this old building at Trinity with these huge windows, there is nothing like opening the curtains (yes, not blinds!) to a crystal clear blue sky overlooking the College Green. It was just amazing. I played photographer today, took 4 rolls of film! I spent time...
