Lovely place to stay. All of the staff are so welcoming and nice. Very clean and great location! So many amenities nearby and loved the homely touches inside the house including candles and chocolates on pillow. Would definitely stay here again.

Extremely well run and friendly hotel in Donnybrook, I was impressed with the location, the room, the welcome greeting and the goodbye chat with the owner. I was attending an Expo at the RDS and it was a very pleasant 15 minute walk away, through Herbert Park.. On arrival, the young lady sat in the lounge with me, made me a cup of tea and went through the local spots and places to see and to go to eat. I don’t think I have ever had such a friendly greeting ! I spent a pleasant evening in Donnybrook and had a peaceful night’s sleep in my lovely comfortable room (see video). In the morning as I was leaving, Terry the owner asked after my sleep and a nice chat ensued before I strolled to the Aircoach stop a few minutes away. Great experience

The location is ideal - the airport coach stops at the end of the road, although I chose to travel by local bus and use my Visitor Leap Card (a great bargain, if you are travelling around Dublin). Buses into the city centre are very frequent, although it's also a pleasant walk and Donnybrook itself is a pleasant area. The room was comfortable and spotless, looking out over a quiet road. Tina and Terry were friendly and very helpful. They took the Covid requirements seriously, although restrictions have now largely lifted. The only pity was that breakfasts are currently not available because of the pandemic. However, there are tea and coffee making facilities in the room and a Tesco Express 2 minutes away, as well as plenty of cafes nearby. And the cost of the stay was very reasonable for Dublin. I would come back like a shot and recommend it highly!…

A very enjoyable stay, I was welcomed with tea and biscuits on my arrival and made to feel at home. A lovely room with a comfortable bed and modern en-suite, a little out of town but easy to get in and out of Dublin on the numerous busses just at the end of the road. Genuine, lovely people, it was my pleasure to have stayed there

I lived for almost 7 years in Dublin so when I decided to visit back the city for a long weekend I knew I wanted to be close to the city centre but also close to Ranelagh (the best hood for me) Donnybrook Hall is like a typical Irish house with all the facilities you need. A variety of bus stops around the corner, even the one who bring you straigh to the airport. The place itself is very clean, quiet, kettle,hairdryer, towels, wifi are provided in the room. They let you keep your suitcase after the check out for the day your travel back. The owner and the lady are very friendly always willing to help you. I highly recommend this place, it has been the best decision I took. Just remember bring your adapter for the plugs!!

As a solo traveller and It being my first ever visit to Dublin, Terry and Martina at The Donnybrook Guesthouse made me feel very welcome, comfortable, well informed and safe. Their customer service was perfect and they went the extra mile, when the didn't necessarily have to. If/When I visit Dublin in the future, I know where I'll be staying and that's back at the lovely Donnybrook Guesthouse. Thank you so much. Robert.

Tucked away just off the main road to the south side if Dublin lies Donnybrook Hall. Terry & the staff were wonderful hosts- from organising parking to the fabulous clean rooms, and the wee chocolate treat awaiting your arrival or when you return and the end of the day- it’s the wee things!! A brilliant area for accessing the city centre, and the major road network around Dublin, Donnybrook Hall is located in a quiet street with eateries, bars and shops close by. There is also a lovely park close by. Thanks for a lovely stay and see you again
