Words cannot describe how AMAZING the stay was…read more I live in Dublin, but I needed a place for my Grandad to stay while visiting me. I've used other B+Bs before, but they were all booked. I then found this place online and decided to give it a go. I wish I found this place sooner. From the get--go, I knew we found a special place. When checking in, my Grandad asked the Owner what time breakfast was.. She then asked him, "What time do YOU want breakfast?!". Wow-that level of personalisation stuck out to me immediately. My Grandad had the most comfortable, warm and enjoyable stay. His room was super clean and very comfy. He had his own bathroom, and the place was kitted out with a television, hairdryer and toiletries. My Grandad said his breakfasts were so yummy. He had options of full english, cereals and fruit. The whole B+B has this traditional, homely vibe. Family photos of days gone by are on the walls, and there are book shelves where guests can help themselves. The B+B is situated a few mins walk from McDonalds, Pizza Places and Tesco (a grocery store). So if you need anything, you don't need to go far. The City Centre is right by, which is ideal because I don't drive. Bernie, the Owner was so warm, helpful and amazing. It was raining during my Grandad's stay which limited what we could do and see. I don't drive, and ON HER OWN, she offered to drive us through Phoenix Park, so we can experience it. She advised that it's better to see the place in a car-She was right! And she even drove us past the Guinness Storehouse, giving us the history of the area and insider knowledge that you wouldn't find on wikipedia. Mind you, she did this out of the goodness of her heart. Again, where else will you see this level of personalization? Really going above and beyond! Bernie is also super knowledgeable and gives the best advice on which attractions to see, which are worth paying for, and not just trying to extort you for money-and even the history behind certain buildings/monuments. It's no surprise that my Grandad asked her for her business card, so that he can recommend her to everyone back home in the UK. I am happy because I have peace of mind that my Grandad (and other family from abroad) will always have a great place to stay at, when they visit me. I can't recommend this place enough. The value you receive is not reflected in the price. I would pay triple than what is charged. Thank you Bernie! You and your B+B really stood out to my Grandad and helped make his stay in Dublin to be memorable and enjoyable. He can't stop talking about what a great stay it was. He's now already planning his next visit!

A wonderful little B&B operated by a friendly Irishwoman named Bernadette. Room wasn't just clean,…read moreit was immaculate! Breakfast was wonderful, place was neat and tidy. Quiet neighborhood, great for a taste of local life but not if you'd like to be in the center of the city. Only con was that the bed had little cushioning - I could feel the wire springs on my back!

Avoid this place its full of thieves and sbags only nice people are the ones on the reception items…read morebeing stolen and going missing here guy in my room spooked me out so walked out, standing beside me bed staring at me making me feel uncomfortable, telling me what to do etc, I value my privacy a single room would be better, be careful of your belongings, thieves about, would rather sleep outside than sleep here. I can not recommend it in any shape or form, you will be spooked and very uncomfortable. I understand why homeless people would rather sleep rough, reported a theft of item that was recovered then got silent treatment, though I was right to report it, stay away from my stuff sbag who took it and the lot of them are scum. Place is a makeshift prison.

Pros: Close to the airport…read more The shuttle (not free) stops right in front Nice staff Tea and coffee available throughout the day In the lobby Cons: No AC Dated We only stayed at this hotel for about 3-4 hours. It was just a nap and shower stop. We took Bus H1 from zone 16. It took about 15 min to arrive to the hotel. Check In was fast. We were given a room upstairs. They don't have elevators, so you will have to take your luggage up via the stairs. The room was small. It is dated, but clean and appropriate for one night or a quick stop. The room stays pretty cool with the windows open, but if you close the windows, it can get hot.

Dei and Liam are great. I slept like a log while at their B&B. They treat you like family! I can…read moretell that no stranger has ever dawned their door step. The care they give before and after arrival unparalleled to any high end hotel stay I have ever experienced. Breakfast is great, service is great, accommodations clean and homey. Definitely would stay here again if I return to Dublin.

A nice place to stay…read more........... ........................................... ........................................... ............................................ ............................................ ........................................... It is really nice ... the manager wrote me and told me twice that if I did not leave an excellent review, "there would be consequences". Not knowing what those consequences would be and as instructed, I give The Merchant House an Excellent review! It is stunning! The threat was alarming enough that my family did visit the nearest police station to report the threat to an inspector
