My partner and I are planning a few days away in Dublin in early April.
We want a nice hotel on a B B basis that is fairly central to the city and within walking distance of bars/restaurants etc; but not too rowdy.
Can anyone recommend??
Also any really good things to do while we’re there?

A pal of mine recommends Buswells hotel in Molesworth Street since it still has good service and is central, while not over expensive:

I really reccomend Rick Steve’s guide. I just got back from Ireland, and it was a huge help.
The Westbury Hotel just off Grafton Street (Grafton St includes shops like Brown Thomas the dearest shop in Ireland nd it also has a famous restraurant called Captain Americas were a lot of stars hav ate there like Bono!) Its also very close to St.Stephens Green Shopping Centre and Temple Bar!!!!
Jurys hotel in Christchurch may be able to offer an ‘Inn’ type service, so could be a bit basic, its within walking distance to town, and around the corner from the best chipper in Dublin,called Burdocks. Its about a 20 min stroll from temple bar, so you’ll be far enough away from all the noise and no need to wait for hours to try get a taxi, its also on the way to Guinness factory.
There are drinking tours of Dublin, I see them when I’m out in town and everyone on them seems to have a good time, it will also give you a few ideas on where to go for the last 2 nights
I’ve been to Dublin a few times and I’ve always stayed in Clontarf, a suburb not far from the centre of the city. Its on Dublin Bay, and there are quite a few B B’s there, some good, some not so good.
The area is also served by a good bus service that only takes about 15 mins to get into O’Connell Street and the City centre.
Things to do – don’t miss the Book of Kells, one of the great art treasures of the world. Also, the National Museum of Ireland is beautiful. I’m sure you’ll get a lot of suggestions for pubs here, but these are my personal Dublin favourites.
Have a great time there!
