Handel's Hotel

Comfort, courtesy and attention of the staff. We expected a basic three-star at the 89 euro room-only price and got a modern well appointed room, and good service. We'll remember this for another date. Breakfast selection was good too. Location is opposite the Dublin City Civic Offices by Christchurch, well away from the noise of Temple Bar. Two parking places on the street might be lucky for a drop off.

I arrived at the hotel having booked in on line. Painless experience I have to say. The staff were very welcoming and friendly. The hotel smelled lush.. I asked for a rm change as I didn't want a rm opposit the lift. This was done with no fuss. Went to the room, it was clean and comfortable lovely coffee machine. Phoned down for a hairdryer as the one in the rm didn't work. The receptionist arrived with replacement, the original was working but I was not using it properly. All was done with a smile and very helpful. The bed was very comfortable! I was more than happy with my stay. I cannot recommend highly enough.

I arrived Friday 4pm with my girlfriend. The lady at the front desk was exceptionally polite, friendly, helpful and professional. Also the gentlemen working behind the bar was quite patient with us, took time to answer our questions and go through the drinks on offer as we weren't sure what we were in the mood for. I wish I had asked for their names because they deserve a special mention for representing this hotel so well. The hotel was in an amazing location, so close to many great attractions like Temple Bar and The Olympia theatre whilst also just enough streets over to maintain a quiet peaceful atmosphere around the hotel itself. We encountered no noise issues and no problems in general. We left so happy with our stay and we will be visiting this hotel again on our next trip to Dublin.

Everything. This hotel is worth every penny. The location is exceptional, just a short walk from the main attractions and evening pubs, yet situated on a quiet street. Comfortable beds, a spacious room, and a large, clean bathroom by local standards. They provided water in the room, a coffee machine is available for guests (remarkable for a 3-star hotel), and they even lent us power adapters. I would definitely recommend it, and if I return to Dublin, I would stay at Handel's Hotel again.

Location was great, we were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go. Teeling distillery 20 min, guiness storehouse was about 30 min. Less than 10 to the cathedral and castle. Right next door one side is a great pub called Darkey Kelly's, go early, it gets really busy, other side is a nice little breakfast cafe that opens at 8.30, great food. Hotel was spotlessly clean and the staff were super helpful. Bed was pretty comfy, ensuite was large. Shower was super powerful although it took us a while to figure out taps are not hot and cold ! FYI they are temp and throttle. Nice to have a quality coffee machine, shame the cups don't fit without removing the driptray. Small annoyance having to ask for more milk all the time, supplies seemed a little stingy.
