Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The place is more of a hostel, it was billed as family friendly but rooms were tiny, mattresses were very thin and not comfortable, sheets had small stains on them, the shower drain was backed up and flooded the tiny bathroom, water backed up outside the bathroom onto the carpet and never dried. The toilet backed up the second day. They front desk refunded us a portion of the cost but never apologized or seemed to care much.

Fantastic breakfast and staff!

I was happy with this choice! The breakfast was fantastic, like being at a restaurant. The staff is kind and attentive. The location is central. The room was small, but cozy.

The smell in my room was so horrid I immediately left and booked somewhere else. The front desk person gave me a weird vibe and I felt very unsafe on top of that.

Unfortunately it’s not located in great area. The staff were outstanding, responding to every need. It beautiful inside , couldn’t have asked for better staff and management. We had very early start when leaving and then even arranged breakfast for us before the official breakfast times. I wpuld definitely recommend it but be sure to get taxi or Uber there if possible.

Gardiner Lodge is well located, only 5mins walk from O-Connell St and Dublin Spire which makes it very walkable and a great Hotel standard B&B to stay in. There is no parking outside the property which make drop off a challenge and there's no bar area to relax in, instead you have to make do with local pubs!
