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 marbled floor 'T' shaped entrance way which, with its 2.6 metre (8.5 feet) ceilings, 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. It also has its own patio. The master bathroom (en suite) is quite large with 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 a second patio. The second bathroom has a bathtub/shower combination and is also quite spacious. The living room has a 32” 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 the second patio. 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 Miele washer and Meile 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. The phone service offers free calling to landlines in Ireland and inexpensive calls to overseas countries.

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 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, this may be available at a 12 Euro per day extra 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.

Great location
This apartment is perfect if you want to be within walking distance to everything, but without being in the middle of all the noise. It’s an easy walk to Grafton Street, The Castle, etc. We even walked to the Guinness Factory. There is a train directly across the street, but it doesn’t run through the night, so it didn’t affect our sleep. It was very nice to have a nice kitchen, the beds are comfortable, and the balconies were a nice place to relax. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Dublin short stay
We stayed in David's apartment for 3 nights in early December. From the initial contact, right through the booking process and key pick up David was a pleasure to deal with and sent the most comprehensive "how -to" instructions that we have ever received through VRBO. The apartment is exceptionally well located within a short walk of St Stephen's Green, O'Connell St, Temple Bar and Dublin Castle. We walked all over Dublin during the three days we were there and never needed to use public transport or taxis. The two bedrooms and two bathrooms were perfect for the 3 of us, and would still be ideal for 4. The bedding and towels were of a good quality and the beds were very comfortable. There is seating for 4 in the living room along with a tv and dvd player and the attached kitchen though small is well appointed with all the necessities and a dining table. We read some comments regarding the trains before we booked. During the 3 nights we were there while we were aware of the trains they were not an issue for us and don't run during the early hours. There are plenty of guide books in the apartment and the "apartment book" provides many great suggestions. We had breakfast around the corner on Pearse St at the Paella Bar which was great and had a dinner at O'Neills Victorian Pub which is a stone's throw from the apartment, and has wonderful food and a tremendous atmosphere. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at David's apartment and would highly recommend it to anyone looking to stay in Central Dublin. We believe it is excellent value for money.

The ideal stay in Dublin
Perfectly located by everything while on a quiet street. This place is close to two pubs with great food and around the corner from a bakery that has the best pastries. The unit is a quick walk to Temple Bar, a grocery, and any spot worth visiting, but the best part is it’s not swamped with tourists so you get some privacy. It is also very clean and well kept. It comes complete with modern appliances, washer and dryer (separate machines and the dryer dries well, which is rare), and overall very spacious. If you are touring further away, highly recommend using public transportation as you can literally go anywhere in Ireland without a car. The unit is close to Dart (train) and several bus lines. You can even take an express bus to/from the airport for 7€.

Why they chose this property

This is an attractive, modern (2006) flat in a well maintained building. It is also on the south side of the river. We will spend time here enjoying the city and provide visitors with a great location to see Dublin when we are not 'in town'.

What makes this property unique

A 20 minute walk will take you to all of the tourist attractions in central Dublin. NOTE, we are NOT in the "Grand Canal Dock" area as this website indicates - we are in Central Dublin.
