Celtic Lodge Guesthouse

My nephew and I traveled to Dublin to see Man Utd play Leeds at Croke Park. As soon as the date for the fixture was announced, I looked for a reasonably priced hotel with twin beds and was shocked at how much the majority of hotels had inflated their prices. Celtic Lodge was around the price I wanted to pay, a short walk from the train station, close to bars / restaurants and the bus to Croke Park, so I booked. Our room was completely as expected and the cleaners had left the window open, which was a godsend on one of the hottest days / nights in Dublin. More importantly everything was really clean. WiFi worked well and the shower had good pressure. We had breakfast included in our rate and this was exceptional. Very tasty and filling. At all times, we were greeted in a friendly way by all members of staff and felt completely happy that we had received great value for our money. The owner of Celtic Lodge should be very proud of his staff and of the value he provides for his guests. My only complaint would be that the mattress was a little soft for my liking, but that’s down to personal preference.

Amazing location for everything we needed in Dublin, check in was no problem, we were early so left luggage in a secure place, the reception staff very friendly and always a good morning from them. The room was clean and very comfortable, looked into front street and could have sat there people watching all day, above the bar but didn’t bother us. Breakfast each morning nothing was too much trouble for the ladies that ran the breakfast room, we will definitely be back next February

We stayed for two nights at this hotel. As soon as we arrived in Dublin, we went to ask the hotel when the room would be available and at the reception they found us one immediately. The staff is very friendly and gave us the opportunity to keep our bags even after check out.
