This is a lovely apartment in a great neighborhood - we (family w two teenagers) arrived quite late at night and I was blown away the next morning when I went for a walk!
Apartment has washer/dryer, stove/oven, fridge, toaster, iron, television, wifi… It was clean and comfortable. One end overlooks St Andrew’s Street. The owners were extremely attentive to any questions we had.
You can walk to any major attractions from here: Saint Stephen’s Green, Trinity College (Book of Kells), Grafton Street, Dublin Castle, Saint Patrick’s Cathedral, EPIC Museum, Temple Bar, Merrion Square Park, museums…. Many pubs and restaurants right in the neighborhood. Buses and taxis are available at College Green, about a 3 minute walk, Tara DART station (can go to Howth, Malahide or Dalkey from here) is about a 10 minute walk. There’s a Marks and Spencer less than 5 minutes away with a great food shop - walked over for scones in the morning. There’s also a Boots next to M&S for whatever toiletries, makeup or medications you might need. And if you are from the US and need a Starbucks fix, there’s two within about a five minute walk on Grafton and College Green. Our 16 year olds walked around by themselves - it’s a safe neighborhood.
I can’t imagine a more perfect location to explore Dublin and the area. Thank you to Gavin and Niall! I hope to return sometime!
