About this property

Fantastic Apartment In The Heart Of The City With River Views.

Recently renovated by award winning A2 Architects, my 2nd floor, open plan studio apartment offers the perfect location to stay in Dublin. Situated right beside the symbol of Dublin, the Ha’penny Bridge, you are in the beating heart of the city.

Everything is within walking distance, with Temple Bar and Trinity College for example just across the bridge and most other major sights a few minutes away . The airport bus is only 100 metres away, not to mention all the bars and restaurants just outside the door. Experiencing the true essence of Dublin couldn’t be any easier.

Previously a 66-metres (710 sq ft) two-bedroom apartment, it was renovated to an open plan, creating a large space that allows full access to natural light. From the window overlooking the river Liffey, you get a great view of the sunset and the feeling of the city passing you by. It’s deceptively easy to just sit at the window and watch as people cross the Ha’penny bridge. I have Wi-fi, a great bathroom and fully functioning kitchen.

Dublin is a conveniently compact city and my apartment is nestled right in the centre of it all, allowing for a hassle free, thoroughly enjoyable place to experience it to the full. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Location cannot be better. You are overlooking the River Liffey and directly above the beautiful Ha'penny Bridge. Cross the bridge and you are in Temple Bar with its numerous bars, restaurants, vintage clothes shops, Project Arts Centre, Gallery of Photography, Irish Film Institute and many other attractions.

Dublin two main pedestrian shopping streets, Grafton and Henry St are about 5 minutes away.
Trinity College with its famous Library is 3 minutes walk.

The Aircoach or Dublin Express bus from the airport drops you 2 minutes walk away. The LUAS tram stops in Jervis St 2 minutes away but the apartment is so central you probably won't be using public transport at all.

I personally wouldn't recommend car hire as a lot of the streets are one way and it can be tricky to drive around if you are not familiar with the city.

NOTES:
The sofa bed showing in the pictures has been changed. New sofa (length as bed 181 x 111cm) suitable for one adult or two children.

For arrival after 7pm please enquire about booking (supplement might apply)

Fabulous stay in Dublin

Couldnt find any fault with this property , if your in Dublin for a short stay its a great location, close enough to so many sights and buses / trains all so close. Property owner also gave very detailed information to help with stay which was a great help and stay had all you need for a self contained stay and close to shops & restaurants. I would highly recommend and would stay there again if I get the opportunity to visit Dublin again.

Great stay in the heart of Dublin

Fantastic location on the first floor with a lift. Spacious studio with full kitchen although not a lot of utensils. The bed was reasonably comfortable. The downside of the apartment was the noise. It is on a busy street and near bars and restaurants. It did quieten at a reasonable hour and ear plugs for me certainly muffled the sound. My husband who is a heavy sleeper was fine.

Solo in Dublin

This property is perfectly located in the city center. You can literally walk everywhere within 10-15 minutes max. Temple bar is right across the river over Ha’penny Bridge. Shopping and lots more restaurants are literally all around you. The apartment accommodations were perfect for me as I was traveling solo doing photography. Iris, the lady who maintains the place was a rockstar! She met me early to drop off my gear before chec-in time and gave me all kinds of helpful tips on places to go and eat. Would recommend this place if you want to be in the center of it all!

Massive Home Run!!!

This is best as a two person stay in the heart of Dublin. It's above an Ice Cream shop(no will power) and is 2 floors above entry. Being at the North end of the H'Penny bridge it is within walking distance( easily) of many attractions. We had no car and wouldn't want one. The Gaol and the Zoo were cab rides. The washer and dryer are superb amenities for us,The refrig and freezer LARGE. Fastest Internet I've had in a vaca rental. Shower accoms my 6 foot height easily.The host has it well scoped out. Any downside? Hey, you're in the city and Dublin doesn't sleep, so with windows open: street noise. I'd return in a heartbeat!

Terrific location in Dublin

Everything about our stay went perfectly. The host allowed us to check in early so we were not wondering around Dublin bleary-eyed from an overnight flight. He had a friend meet us in front of the coffee shop below the apartment to let us in and show us where everything was. Couldn’t have gone smoother. The apartment had everything we asked for: queen bed, WiFi, and washer/dryer. And there were little bonuses like the espresso maker and even the packets for making coffee. But best of all was the location. The apartment had to have been dead center in the middle of Dublin. It was a convenient walk or tram ride to every place we wanted to visit. And there excellent restaurants just steps away. Can’t say enough about the location. We would definitely stay here again.

Great Flat - Convenient to Everything

We loved the flat! Huge, handy for sightseeing, and lots of amenities. If you're looking for fun and activities, this is the place. Right across from the Temple Bar district, you can see the Ha'Penny Bridge out the window. The only minor issue we had was the step-up to the bathroom. My wife has mobility issues, and we had to figure that one out. It wouldn't be an issue for anyone else. As is usual in the UK, there is no air conditioning, which means the windows have to be open in the summer. The streets are pretty lively until midnight or so. If you go to bed early, that could be an issue, but again, for most folks, this isn't a problem. Overall, this is a great place to stay. There are taxis right outside the door, as well as city buses. We did three days of sightseeing, and it was the best location possible. The host was great and easily accessible. Highly recommended.

As centrally located as you could possibly be

This is a totally honest review as there were many pluses but some minuses about our stay. Biggest + is the location. You could not B better located in Dublin. Saved us 3 dys car rental as we were walking distance to everything. Large spacious flat with separate washer/dryer that worked fantastic. Entrances all required keyed doors so we never did not feel safe. Shower had hot water for 3 adults as long as you remembered to hit the boost first. Some basics provided like shower and laundry items. A few items worth mentioning though -The flat is very white and showing its age with chips and doors and drawers that no longer hang straight. Theres handprints visible everywhere due to the amount of white and needs cleaned. The bathroom shower was sparkling, but the floor and door need some attention. The bathroom has 2 small windows & only the bottom half are frosted. Everything from the chest up is visible to ppl on the street unless you bend down. The bed is not a king, its maybe a queen? Some dishes and silverware we pulled from the cabinets were dirty. :( Checkin was rough. We had to agree to an exact time to meet someone bicycling from across town. We were driving from 3 hrs away with stops in between. We were standing on the busy street with all our luggage and asked for $ multiple times while we waited about 45 min. She was very nice, but its hard to be pressed to an exact time while on vacation. Checkin should be a window as advertised. Given everything, would stay again.

Dublin Magic

My husband and I stayed in Dardo’s apartment for 6 nights and LOVED it. This was my second stay there as the first stay was so perfect. Dardo and Iris were wonderful to communicate with and check in and check out were very smooth. The area is centrally located but not too crazy with great views of Ha’penny bridge. Everything was walkable and the apartment was immaculate. We are already looking forward to coming back some day!

Great place, just a few minor issues

Perfect location. Very clean, well-stocked. Would be better if host didn’t have to deliver keys. Our flight was early and we were stranded on the cold street. Main bed is too low for old folks. Needed more towels, coffee, and sugar for 3 adults staying 11 days. Place needs rugs. Bare floor was cold. Despite all these minor issues . . . We loved Dublin.

Perfect Location

10/10! The Flat is big, clean, perfectly appointed, and in an amazing location! The bed is comfortable, and there is plenty of room in closets and shelving to move out of your suitcases. The bathroom is spacious with room for your toiletries. There is a blow dryer with the end to reduce air flow and a flat iron. There is a washer and dryer and iron and board. The host was very helpful as we planned our arrival. It was unseasonably hot in Dublin - but the windows all open to bring in air- and heavy enough to keep out the noise. The restaurants to the right out the main door are fantastic! The tourist spots are across the bridge right out the front door. The nicer shops and newer restaurants are across the bridge and up 5 or so blocks to the left. Chez Max is in the center of town and is one of the best meals we have ever had. We hope to come back and would not want to stay anywhere else.

We loved this cute apartment right in the heart of it all in Dublin! We could walk everywhere! It got a bit noisy at night with the parties and in the morning with dropoffs at the local restaurants. But overall the location was fantastic! And Dardo was very responsive - answered questions almost immediately. He was a great host!
