Lovely and local
Wanted to stay in a location a little different from city center, but it was still extraordinarily close to so much happening. Staff were helpful and responsive. The accommodations were far more interesting than a conglomerate hotel. It felt like an elevated hostel or kind of like visiting granny's house. Would stay here again anytime.

Brilliant! 9.9
This property is a home away from home. It’s in a lovely Georgian stately hime. We felt like we were staying with family from the minute we walked in the door. We’ve been overseas for a whole month and this was the most comfortable bed and lovely airy room we’ve stayed in. The breakfast was delicious with lovely attentive staff. Sadly I’ve injured my knee and Michaela cared for me as if I was her daughter. Getting me some antiflam meds and insisting I had food first. And it wasn’t expensive at all. I’ve given it 9.9 only because I’m not a fan of american style drip coffee and because there’s no lift, which was hard with an injury. We highly recommend Gardiner Lodge!!!

One night stay
Stayed just one night on business. The room was a very nice surprise. A large old fashioned space that has been recently restored but with a clean modern bathroom with a lockable safe etc. A pleasant change from a boring chain hotel. it’s not the nicest area in Dublin but for me, that didn’t matter. Decent breakfast- full Irish with fresh coffee.

Location was easy access to train station but area wasn’t the best. Breakfast was very good. Wi-Fi was inaccessible for our two rooms and staff were either not willing to acknowledge or unable to fix, blaming our phones. We have most current iPhones and they worked in every other hotel we stayed. Room was tiny. Not worth the over $300 per room we paid.

A gem of a lodge
This lodge was a gem. Spotlessly clean, modern amenities, great water pressure in the shower, and a lovely breakfast room with a choice of delicious hot breakfasts as well as the usual continental offerings.

Great location but no lift and AC and soundproof
Very cute place. Location is awesome, walking distance to everything. Note that there's no lift and AC though, only a fan in the room, so we had to have the window open all night as the room can get stuffy. Very friendly staff and awesome warm breakfast. Our biggest complaint is that the sound proof is awful--we could hear every foot step that people upstairs made, who were stomping and throwing things around for hours; we could barely sleep.

Excellent accommodation what is very central
Central location for the National Convention Centre. I was able to walk to the Centre in about 20 minutes. Convenient for the LUAS tram system also. Room was clean and comfortable. If possible, it would be best to start serving breakfast earlier 8:00am as guests with an appointment at 9:00am have no prospect of enjoying breakfast and making the appointment at 9:00am.

The Gardiner Lodge was a quaint hotel that was beautifully maintained. It was clean and very accessible to all the sites that central Dublin has to offer. Loved it. Be aware though that the hotel does not have an elevator or air conditioning. Just the same, many hotels in Ireland do not have air conditioning since the weather is cool for so many months of the year. I'm still giving the Gardiner the highest of scores, it was truly a pleasure staying there.

No elevator!! Had to ascend 72 stairs from lobby to room, obviously multiple trips per day. Also, asked for ice, received small bowl, after repeated requests over a period of a number of days. Will not return.

Nice stay, sightly sketchy neighborhood
Inside the hotel is mostly quite nice (heavy fire doors made navigating between bathroom and bedroom a bit awkward in our room). The breakfast is included and really quite nice--it felt like royal treatment in this day and age when almost every other hotel in Dublin charges you extra. Staff particularly nice and helpful. The neighborhood, as others have mentioned, isn't the best. If I were traveling alone as a woman, I'd probably make sure to be in my room before late.

Although the surroundings have many low cost B&Bs and youth hostels. However, inside it is a much more pleasant hotel with nice decorations. The room was a reasonably nice size and so was the bathroom. They made nice cook breakfast, but unfortunately it wasn't available in early morning, I think it started from 8am. So there were only limited pasteries and juice at earlier time. Be aware of that if you have an earlier flight to catch.

Reception was very helpful in planning my visit to Dublin. The room was spotless and modern, although I could hear my neighbor coughing. The breakfast was tasty and fresh, with very friendly staff, Overall, an excellent value for the price.
