We live in Florida, this is our Dublin home. We visit it every year. It is a modern flat (built in 2006) in a very well maintained building. We are 2 blocks from the entrance to Trinity College and you can walk to every major attraction in central Dublin from our flat. The building is located on a side street between Pearse Street and Townsend Street and boasts a roof garden which has views over the rooftops of much of Dublin.

You enter into a wood floor hallway with 2.6 metre (8.5 feet) ceilings - it feels very spacious. All rooms are accessed via this entryway. There are 2 good size bedrooms. The master bedroom has an extremely comfortable USA king size bed with ample wardrobe and drawer space. The master bathroom (en suite) has a shower, toilet and wash basin. The second bedroom (quite large for a European second bedroom) has two large very comfortable single beds and ample wardrobe space. Upon request, these beds can be locked together and, with a topper, provide a second USA king size bed. There is a 35 Euro charge for this. The bedroom has access to the 'front' patio. The second bathroom has a bathtub/shower combination and is also quite spacious. The living room has a 42” LED flat screen TV, a Blu-ray DVD player and a stereo system. A comfortable sofa and an additional chair provides seating for 4 people. There is access to a 'back' patio which overlooks the courtyard. The dining area, with its leather chairs, accommodates 5 people. The kitchen is fully equipped to serve 6 people. It is a 'Bosch' kitchen with an electric oven, stove top and microwave oven. There is a powerful extraction fan over the stove top. The large frost free refrigerator and the dishwasher are 'built in'. There is a separate laundry room with a stacked Miele washer and dryer.

There is free, high speed internet service for your ipads and laptops. SKY satellite TV delivers over 100 channels, several of which are international. There are two mobile phone available for your use.

The 'fifth' person is accommodated via an air mattress in the living room.

The flat is located on the first floor (second by North American definition) of the building. There is a lift (elevator). An intercom service from the flat to the front door allows for remote door opening.

The Luas (tram) service (both the 'red' and the 'green' lines) are a 10 minute walk from the flat. The Dart train station is 2 minutes away. There are several pubs and restaurants within a 2 block walk of the flat and many more within a 4 block walk. Trinity College (home of the book of Kells) and Temple Bar (pubs) are both a 5 minute walk. Grafton Street (shopping) and St Stephen's Green are a 10 minute walk. A 15 - 20 minute walk will get you to the Dublin Castle, St Patrick's Cathedral, Christchurch Cathedral and the GPO building (famous for the 1916 rising). The Garden of Remembrance and the Guinness Factory are a 30 - 35 minutes walk.

Within the flat building (on the ground floor) are several shops and offices, including a small supermarket which is open until 19:00. There is a large Tesco supermarket in Temple Bar - 4 blocks away.

If you plan on renting a car to see the countryside (you do NOT want one in Dublin), please ask us for our recommendations. We also have a parking space in the basement, which is sometimes available at a 12 Euro per day charge, should you bring your car into the city.

Please note that our pricing is in Euro. This website may reflect prices in your 'local' currency or in US dollars. These numbers are approximate and will change as the exchange rate changes.

It can't get better than this
Booking, communication and support for this property were top notch both before and during our stay in the unit. Very well kept, clean and conveniently located near everything in Dublin. No issues of any kind and owner provides one of the best renter guides we have seen renting with VRBO or other. Would stay here again without hesitation.

Perfect Location
This property is in a great location to explore Dublin. All locals told us we were in a perfect location. The flat was much larger than we expected, clean and well appointed. The photos don’t do it justice. The directions and details provided by the owner were perfect, bordering on too much. :) One reviewer commented on the road noise and it is somewhat loud, mainly due to a loose manhole cover that rattles when a car drives over. We wore headphones and our daughter used a white noise machine which made it a nonissue. We also highly recommend Deli Gold which is downstairs for coffee and breakfast, the guys are friendly and remembered our order. O’Neill’s is a perfect pub, not a tourist trap and authentic food.

Wonderful Apartment; Great Location
This apartment is nice, spacious, very well-equipped, well maintained and comfortable. It is near public transportation, and it's easy to walk from it to main attractions. The owner is very attentive and responsive. It's well worth the stay.

About the host

Host profile image
English husband (see our flat in London), Irish wife. Living in Florida (neutral territory). We spend about 3 months in Europe (London and Dublin primarily). Try to visit Sydney once a year and enjoy Florida the rest of the time.

Why they chose this property

The building is very well built, the flats are quite spacious (European definition) and the building is well maintained. Its location could hardly be better - 2 blocks from the main entrance to Trinity College and a 20 minute walk to all of the tourist attractions in central Dublin. It is NOT in the "Grand Canal Dock" area as VRBO indicates - it is in the city centre.

What makes this property unique

If you want to be in central Dublin there are few better locations. We are 2 blocks from the entrance to Trinity College, 4 blocks from Temple Bar and a 20 minute walk will get you to almost all of the tourist attractions that Dublin has to offer.
