This hotel was amazing! The staff were so friendly and welcoming. They were incredibly helpful, and they even helped us learn how to use the FreeNow taxi app! (They were also able to call a taxi for us, but we knew we would want to use FreeNow during our stay so it was helpful to have their guidance.) The restaurant served delicious dinner, and the breakfast was amazing! The outdoor seating is a small oasis in busy Dublin. I would highly recommend this hotel to our friends and family, and we would love to return for another stay in the future!

Cute boutique hotel in Dublin

Fantastic location and interesting boutique hotel! We loved the emphasis on poetry and writers. Breakfast was delicious. The smaller rooms are very small and may not be a good fit if you are traveling with a lot of luggage.

I thoroughly enjoyed my 2 night stay at The Wilder. The staff was incredibly nice and attentive. They went out of their way to recommend local eateries, helped us when we needed a plug to fit the outlet, and helped me when I accidentally left my key card in the room. The rooms were clean, up modern, and the ac worked great. 10/10 would definitely stay here again in the future!
