St George Hotel

I LOVED this hotel. Yes, it’s old. Yes, the floors and stairs are uneven. Yes to all of it. It is extremely old and charming. We stayed on the 6^th floor and the elevator goes to the 5^th floor so we had to drag our luggage up some tiny stairs, but it was cool. The staff was extremely nice and helpful. Breakfast is included and it was FANTASTIC for the mornings before heading out for a lot of walking. The beds were firm and comfortable. The water in the showers was hot. I don’t really need a lot from a hotel because it is really just there for you to rest a few hours and head out into the awesome that is Dublin. The location is pretty good and the buses stop right outside of the door. If Bus isn’t your thing then there are literally taxis coming every 20 – 30 seconds. If not, a 20 – 30 minute walk could probably get you wherever you want to be. i just really loved this hotel and it does have a lot of charm. I’m so done with overly sterile hotels where you can’t even tell what city or country you are in. Come here and enjoy a good nights sleep.

The Hotel St George was a great place for us to stay while visiting Dublin. The hotel is conveniently located on several bus runs as well as a 10 minute walk to either Trinity College or the Temple Bar area. We showed up at 9:00 a.m. after a long/​trying overseas flight thinking we would try to drop our bags off only to find that our room was ready and not only did we check in but were directed to breakfast. What a wonderful surprise when you first arrive in a new unknown country. Breakfast each morning was a traditional Irish breakfast with several additional options to choose from. Our room was clean, quiet and very unique. The next time we find ourselves in Dublin the Hotel St George will be our first place to look to stay.

Right within the Georgian area of Dublin, the St. George is a quaint hotel that is right on the line of the hop on hop off sight seeing tour bus. The power outlets were a bit unreliable and they don’t turn on the heat until 6pm, but the breakfasts were lovely. The staff at the St. George were all so friendly and accommodating. If you are used to a Hilton or a Marriott, this may not be the place for you. The building is old and with that comes old building issues. Probably one of the most charming things is the fact that there is an old charm about it. For those of us that can hack not staying in 3 star modern comfort, than you should give the St. George a try. Free wi-​fi, free breakfast included, and good location to many of the sites of Dublin.

The place is old and it shows. It is in desperate need of a renovation. The bedding seemed dirty, the shower and shower curtain had mold on it, the skylight in the shower was covered in spider webs and spiders, the TV reception is positively terrible, and the staff are far from kind. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

The Hotel St. George is a restored Georgian building in Parnell Square. We stayed here three nights. Full disclosure: It was once owned by my grandparents and my father lived here as a young boy so i may be biased.
Our room in the old part of the hotel was updated, clean and well kept. A well appointed room with a double and single bed. Beds and bedding were very comfortable, tea service in the room, TV and small bathroom with an excellent shower. A very good full Irish breakfast was included and the hotel has free high-​speed WiFi in the rooms.. A great location at the top of O’Connell St. in easy walking distance to about everything in the city. Taxis available immediately with a wave in front of the hotel. We found a number of good traditional pubs nearby.
There is a large, comfortable lobby sitting room and an adjacent large room with a big screen TV and full service bar. The breakfast room was clean and comfortable, food service was prompt. I found the reception desk friendly, helpful and just a bit more engaged than the staffs at the business hotels i’ve used in Dublin. They currently do not accept Amex.
My only non-​positive observation was that some of the lighting in our room was not working.
My Grandmother would be pleased with the way these folks are running her hotel.
I will stay here next trip and i recommend it.

Hotel für Wochenendtrip ok. Sehr zentral. Wenn Zimmer nach hinten dann ruhig. Zur Strasse wohl recht laut. Preis ging. Frühstück halt Irish.

This hotel is very rundown. I’m sure that it was nice in it’s heyday but all public areas are in dire need of a lick of paint and some TLC. My room was not much better — the carpet was treadbare in parts, the bedcover smelled of damp, the TV reception was deplorable, the kettle in the room was dirty. The bathroom was tiny and the celling had a large patch of mold growing there. Complaints to the front desk went unheard — both receptionists seemed uninterested and looked as though they had heard it all before.
I wouldn’t recommend this hotel to no one.
