Fabulous hotel, would highly recommend.
I stayed with my young daughter. The room was very clean and comfortable. It was also very quiet, even the noise from the street was extremely minimal. The variety of choice available for breakfast was fantastic. The staff were all extremely friendly, courteous and professional. I would definitely stay in this hotel again.
I really couldn't find fault with anything!

Excellent hotel, great location, very friendly people
Comfortable, clean, friendly staff
Nothing I didn’t like. Couple of suggestions to offer: Discuss the Leap card process - we tried paying by card which you can’t do on the bus…! Ask if breakfast has been missed off… I thought I had booked it but hadn’t but didn’t realise until lining up. These are NOT complaints, just useful suggestions

Great staff
We got to the hotel three hours before check in. The gentleman at reception (can't remember his name) was incredibly helpful and managed to get us checked in straight away. I was especially grateful as I was on no sleep and quite ill at the time. Everything about our stay was first class including a birthday card that they dropped into our room. Would definitely stay again!

Fantastic city hotel, if a little noisy.
The Iveagh Garden is a beautifully designed hotel on a beautiful street. Luas stop nearby. Close to St. Stephens Green. The room had 2 singles, as requested, with a really gorgeous bathroom and walk-in rain shower. The beds were soft & comfortable. Breakfast was nice and we were accommodated with vegan sausages. We also had a light snack of wings, soup and sweet potato fries in the bar. All were delicious! We got discounted overnight parking in the shopping centre via the hotel. Recommended Dublin City stay. Will return.
The room was noisy from the outside, to be expected in the busy location. However, it was also noisy inside; we could hear flushing and doors closing throughout the night.

Great hotel in the centre of Dublin
Upmarket hotel in a great location in the centre of Dublin. The staff were super friendly and the room was lovely. Lots of transport options available to and from the hotel. Loads of pubs and restaurants nearby with Grafton street a short walk up the road. It was our first time in Dublin. We would definitely stay here again.

Our short stay to the Iveagh Garden Hotel was great and we’d definitely recommend to friends & family visiting Dubli
I loved how central the property was while also not being in a loud area. The rooms were very spacious with toiletries and water available, which were topped up daily! Also room service was very quick.

We booked the deluxe double which was very spacious and comfortable. It had a fantastic full walk in drench shower, with heated towels. The staff were exceptionally pleasant, helpful and considerate. Fantastic location if attending a concert at the National Concert Hall. Breakfast was lovely, delighted to see them stock Killowen Yogurt which is Irish and delicious. We will definitely be back.

I had the pleasure of celebrating Valentine’s Day at the Iveagh Garden Hotel, where my partner and I were joined by close friends for a surprise engagement party. From the moment we arrived, the experience was nothing short of exceptional. The food was delicious, with a variety of dishes that catered to everyone’s tastes, adding to the celebratory atmosphere of the evening. What truly stood out, however, was the outstanding level of customer service provided by the staff. They went above and beyond to ensure that every detail of the evening was perfect. The team was incredibly supportive and accommodating, assisting me in planning the proposal and helping to create a seamless and unforgettable moment. Their professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail made the entire process stress-free and truly special. The proposal itself was flawless, thanks in large part to the staff’s dedication and creativity. They helped set the scene perfectly, ensuring that everything was in place to make the moment magical. My partner was completely surprised, and the joy and excitement shared by our friends made the evening even more memorable. The 5-star customer service at the Iveagh Garden Hotel truly elevated the experience. From the thoughtful assistance in planning to the genuine care shown throughout the evening, the staff made us feel valued and celebrated. It was a night we will cherish forever, and I 100% recommend the Iveagh Garden Hotel to anyone looking to create a truly special occasion.

The hotel is so beautiful and so much nicer than I expected it to be. Clean, spacious, and updated rooms. We stayed in a deluxe double which had a double bed and two twin beds with plenty of room for our luggage and even a small table and chair. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. They truly went above and beyond to accommodate our requests! We need a vacuum for our vacuum seal travel bags and they brought it to our room right away. We did not have time to try the restaurant but for a small fee they offer grab and go continental breakfast if you have early morning excursion. You need to request these the day before. The location is great! Walking distance for the majority of Dublin's main attractions. Great location if travelling with children in my opinion. There are several bars and clubs across the street but still quiet and not as loud and hectic as Temple Bar. I will definitely stay here again on my next visit to Dublin! Thoroughly enjoy my stay
