Fun
from A TripAdvisor Member
I stayed at this hotel for 2 nights while I was on a tour of Ireland.
The rooms were a little small..but you can't always have huge rooms, right? I didn't notice any noise really, and in the middle of the city you can expect noise. The location of this hotel is perfect, its on the busiest street in Dublin, right in the middle of everything. You're walking distance from the castles and cathedrals, plus Grafton street.
I would definitely stay there again.
Overcharged and ripped off
from Moffedillen
Me and my friends were charged 133 Euros extra for having a broken extra bed with no pillow in the double room for three nights. And even if we could prove that according their own rules, an extra rollaway-bed in the room is NO CHARGE, they refused to refund the money. As a travel agent, I now know where not to send my clients.

Great Weekend
from A TripAdvisor Member
I feel I had to write this review of the Hotel. We have just come back from a weekend in Dublin staying at your hotel,and after reading the reviews before we went ,we were a little apprehensive of what the hotel would be like. I am happy to say that we had a wonderfull weekend,and have no complaints about the hotel whatsoever,the rooms were lovely,the breakfast we had was cooked nicely,the staff were friendly and very helpfull,and I would especially like to thank your night porter Jamie for all the help and friendliness he showed to us,nothing was too much trouble. I would not hesitate to stay in your hotel again. from a happy welsh lady.
Extremely unhappy...
from A TripAdvisor Member
The room we stayed in was very hot and we were cramped for space. The worst part of it all was that we had an early flight to catch the next morning and so requested a wake up call, which never came. Thankfully, we woke on our own but when trying to rush around and get ready to leave, discovered that there was no hot water in the shower. Not a pleasant experience.
Value ??
from A TripAdvisor Member
For a hotel based in the city centre, you can expect noise to a certain degree. But I have never paid so much money to stay somewhere, and I couldn't sleep. Value for money ! I think not. The noise from the fans on one side and the music on the other. The room was very small and extremely warm. I would expect heat like that on a sun holiday. I was very disappointed with my stay, and you can be re-assured that I will be paying over the nose for a "decent" hotel on my next visit. Bitterly disappointed.
Too noisy
from A TripAdvisor Member
We were kept awake all night with music coming from next door all night Spar shop.
Otherwise hotel and breakfast were average.
No sleep ...
from A TripAdvisor Member
stayed in this hotel middle of august 2003 for 3 nights. i guess the purpose of a hotel is to offer a bed and a good nights sleep in the first place - well that's something we didn't get... we had a twin room at the back, it was very hot, and during the night, we woke up because of the noise of rats and other animals looking for food of next door mc donalds.... the girls at the reception desk confirmed they had had complaints but couldn't do anything about it... the irish breakfast was dripping in fat, toasts were black... now the decoration is nice; the room big enough, the shower very small, and the location excellent...

To Whom it may concern We at Lynam's Hotel would like to state that we have a very strick health and hygiene system in place. Records always being available. At no time has a member of staff acknowledged or suggested that we have had a problem with rodents or have had other complaints of this nature. We have a numbers of regular clients and many recommendations of our hotel and our staff. The hotel is no noisier than any other located on a capital's main thoroughfare.Yours Sincerely Jo. McKenna
