    The car-parking situation is a little off putting , 7 min walk away from the hotel, inconvenient for some. Also having to pay extra for the carpark ! €15 on top of the hotel price I’ve never seen that before..Mini bar and food in the room was extortionately priced.

    The Devlin is beautiful an amazing place to stay! Staff were welcoming and friendly room was spotless and gorgeous. The lobby restaurants etc were stunning

    The room was small for 2 people sharing a bed, especially as it was a very warm night . The air conditioning didn't really give out a lot of cool, air.

    The bar by reception weren’t serving any cocktails during our stay, and the rooftop bar turned us away as we weren’t ordering food.

    The warm welcome at check in, the spotless and quirky room was clean, cosy and comfortable. The location was perfect in a quiet spot surrounded by lovely cafes, pubs and bakery.

    Really nice for a short stay.
    • Leisure trip

    There is very limited storage, particularly surface area (which you can get a sense of from the pictures). The noise insulation is not that good, you can hear if there is music outside (specially the base), people walking in and out from the other rooms and screaming children in the room next door.

    The bed was very comfortable and cozy. The coffee machine was an added comfort. The area is very nice, if a bit far from the city center and main attractions. The hotel itself has a very nice bar and cinema. For a women traveling alone, I really appreciated that.

    Lovely hotel, but not perfect.
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller

    The room was INCREDIBLY hot. The air-con was insufficient and once you had showered, you instantly felt like you needed to shower again. The window wouldn’t open and the small room felt like a sauna. This made all time spent in the room very uncomfortable, particularly at night. For the cost of a nights stay at this hotel, you don’t get a justifiable amount of sleep purely because of the heat!

    Lovely hotel with every kind of amenity you could want from a short city break. The room had an excellent shower, mini fridge, a selection of snacks (at an additional cost), Nespresso coffee machine, steamer, hairdryer, and speaker too. The staff were incredibly friendly and very helpful with looking after my luggage whilst exploring the city. The hotel is conveniently located nearby to a tram stop that will take you directly into the centre of Dublin. It is also around 30 minutes walk into the centre too. Surrounding the hotel are some highly-rated restaurants, offering delicious food, and a number of shops.

    The only minor criticism (and I mean minor) was the lack of a small wardrobe but there were hangars and drawers so that did make up for it somewhat.

    The room was excellent, very cosy and comfortable. Shower and bathroom were great and the room had good soundproofing as I didn't hear a thing. I wish I could have stayed longer!

    The cleanliness (or rather the lack of it), I got charged twice (at the moment of arriving and booking - but they reverted the payment quite fast). They also put a lot of sweets in their bedrooms, on one hand I get that they want to do some upselling but a lot of people struggle with weight management and it sucks to be sent in a room full of sweets

    The lobby and the staircase looked nice and cosy, the Dyson hairdryer is top tier
