Chillin at the clink

The clink in Dublin is a centrally located hostel offering beautiful buffet breakfast a wonderful chill out area with bar. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful and in spite of the fact that they had several huge groups were able to take the time to attend to each guest

Wasn’t quite sure what to expect but we were very happy and comfortable here. Very clean room and lovely modern shower room. Staff were friendly and food/drinks very reasonably priced. The docks, Temple Bar, Camden St and Guinness Storehouse all within walking distance. Very convenient location. Great atmosphere around the place too. Looking forward to visiting Dublin again and will be using here as our base again! Would recommend here if on weekends away with friends or want a City break!

I liked that the private bathroom was very clean and the beds were good as well. The only thing was that the walls had many markings/scrapes on them and it gave a weird vibe to the place. The downstairs bathrooms where the lockers are were not as clean as one would hope. The lockers were great through. Overall, I would definitly consider staying here again.

A emerald in the city

Prior to staying I have read many favorable reviews, I saw one or two that they didn't like the hardness of the bed or that they couldn't open the window further, a slow elevator or the cleanliness. This was not my experience at all my four bedroom dorm was immaculately kept. If you go when there are many groups leaving all at the same time of course the elevator could be slow but it was never my case. This is a fantastic place to stay centrally located to many of Dublin's main attractions , just a short walk over Bridge to be right in the middle of the Temple Bar District. This ideal location makes a fantastic base for exploring the beautiful city. The buffet breakfast every morning was full with rotating choices in terms of food selections. For a small additional charge or as a standalone you could even have pancakes warm with strawberries or Nutella. The staff exceedingly friendly and made accommodations for me if I needed something. A big shout out to Assad who is the manager of the groups for breakfast and also to Charlie the master mixologist who's designed the bars signature cocktails. With an ample seating downstairs and the corner that has a pool table many people will enjoy just to relax watch the footy on television and of course don't forget live music on Thursday and trivia on Friday. As I frequently stay in hostiles I must say that this is one of the best experience I have encountered. Highly recommend
