The Clarence

A beautiful hotel in an exceptional location. The room was very fitted out. Incredibly comfortable bed and the service was impeccable. Didn’t stop for a drink in the bar but it is beautiful. The adjoining coffee shop has great coffee. It’s not a cheap hotel but it is worth the $$ if you are looking for a great spot, a little bit of luxury and a comfy bed. No aircon though so might get a little hot in summer. The room came with a fan which we had to use in the middle of the night as it was a bit stuffy

375 euros a night for a cramped dark room overlooking an airshaft. phone to desk didn't work. nowhere to hang towels in bathroom. Also, avoid Temple Bar, a neighborhood crowded with tourists. This hotel seems to be living off the fact that Bono once owned it. Rock and Roll it ain't.

From arrival to our leaving this was a great experience, we had a hire car from the airport and the team sorted out for us to stop directly out front to unload our bags and complete the check in process. After that we went to the recommended parking place, which had a discount. Upon our return we had a couple of cocktails and chat with the staff then a well earned rest in our amazing room with a view over the river. The Clarence has a so much history and charm as well as an elevator. Sadly we only had a one night stay but the next day late check out offer and the fantastic breakfast in the steakhouse was an amazing start to the day. The staff all were very friendly and made our stay a great experience as well as a memorable start to our Ireland trip. We had originally booked for 2020 but the pandemic put a hold on that and the team at the Clarence kept our booking for us until we got there in 2024. We highly recommend the Clarence for its location, ambiance and set up as well as the fantastic hospitality of all staff. We had a Crack with you all🙏

As I sit here tonight, sipping on a Redbreast 12, I cannot say enough GREAT things about this incredible boutique hotel in the “big city”. From our initial check in, to checking out, it is in my top visits of any hotel ever!! The amazing manager, assistant (who personally carried our bags to our room) and amazing bartender, I would recommend The Clarence Hotel, hands down! From recommendation of where to eat, shop and sites we throughly enjoyed the entire stay! We were treated like royalty and so appreciated the hospitality!! Will return to The Clarence Hotel when back on Dublin! ❤️😉 The Church for lunch and Lemon Jelly for breakfast- highly recommend (thanks The Clarence for a memorable trip) 💋

Hotel is so well done. Quality with a touch of lively-like the pink velvet headboard and nice sheets. Towels are thickest we had all vacation. Nespresso in the room. Welcoming lobby bar you could plop down in after a day of sight seeing or catch a martini whilst dressed for dinner. But the best part was the helpful reception team. They answered all our questions, called us taxis, made helpful suggestions of places to see and which trains to take. Always staffed, polite, good listeners. True Innkeepers.
