I am a crossdresser and I am shocked at one of your reviews from some American.I visit this B&B often as I can express my self. I find it upsetting that some bloody Yank can criticise CDs and even goes on to say it is all old people who frequent the sauna. I must remind this guy that according to... More

Have stayed at Inn on the Liffey many times over last 10yrs. My latest was a 4 night stay in March 2013. I have never before written a review, but I am so annoyed to see the unfair negative reviews on this site, that I have been moved to present my views. The en-suite room was warm, clean, nicely decorated... More

Tired, jaded and badly in need of a revamp! Second time I have stayed here and it has deteriorated loads. Reception staff were reasonably pleasant but the guy in charge of breakfast was truly miserable! Went through the motions of providing a service and everything was too much effort. A pity - because last time, some years ago, the woman... More

Even if we were frightened by some previous bad reviews, we finally chose to book here. The building is old and would need renovation, but the location is very good for Temple Bar. The rooms are very small and basic, but clean. The young international staff is friendly and helpful, providing you a breakfast "on request"! The gay sauna is... More

I read with my friends the review immediately prior to me writing this review, and to say we were apprehensive is an understatement. I am more than happy to report that we found this Bed and Breakfast extremely good value for money. We tried to book into the Morrison Hotel further down the quay, but the price was far too... More

Say it about this hell hole. Whilst not filthy & bed bug free it is tired and rather depressing. There's an awful smell ( despair?) & all rooms are smoking, the breakfast room was nice enough but only ate there once. Staff were ok to pretty genuine and local was great to enjoy Dublin and you wanted to stay out... More

Well I stayed in the apartment and yes it is above a gay sauna but that really was fine.. The sauna itself is terrible don't even bother... Having said that my apartment was fine for a cheap three night stay and I would recommend it.. Good location and generally nice. The worst part was the shower which is very average...
