Karen’s home is delightful and Karen’s hospitality is warm and welcoming. Six of us stayed for three nights and we walked into Dublin each day (40 minute stroll) and got cabs home as well as sampling the delights of nearby Rathgar which is just a 5 minute walk away. Brunch at Bijou on Saturday morning was fabulous, we had dinner at Revolution for a quick and easy, light supper as we arrived late evening, and we also had drinks at 108 bar and used the lovely deli too.
The house is clean and has every thing you need - comfortable beds and enough room for 6 adults. Karen left us a bottle of prosecco, fresh bread, butter and jams which were handy for breakfast the next day given we’d arrived at 9pm.
Karen was really helpful in booking us a taxi and a table for dinner too. Nothing was too much trouble and although she’s very close by, we didn’t really see her, but knew we could contact her if we needed to.
All in all we’d thoroughly recommend Karen’s home as a place to stay for exploring Dublin.
