comments It was an absolute joy to stay at Ariel House. I was really pleased with the quality of the house - rooms, breakfast, lounge area. And the staff were so helpful and friendly. I did some work in the lounge and was asked if I would like a cup of coffee - and there it was with some homemade biscuits. I of course expected to pay for it, but it was complimentary. Just one of the nice touches there. I would definitely book again.

comments I thought the house itself was lovely and my room was great, though a little dimly lit if you needed to work. The breakfast was very good. The national water problem (burst pipes needing repair because of winter weather) made tap and shower temperatures unreliable, but this will presumably be resolved.

comments A lovely place to stay with plenty of Character, only 10 minutes drive into the city centre or 25 mins walk approx. The other positives are spacious rooms and courteous staff. The negatives had to do with the breakfast. For the standard of place it claimed to be, not having fresh fruit or freshly squeezed orange juice was disappointing. However the cooked breakfast made up for this. Would not consider paying anymore than €80 a night for a double. Would recommend though.

comments I stayed in room 250, everything was lovely i was very comfortable, just to let you know (although maybe i didn't work it right) the shower was a bit on the cool side even though the water in the sink was very hot, as i said maybe i didn't work the control correctly. The breakfast as great. Anyone i met was friendly and the location was ideal for my needs.

comments Not knowing Dublin, we had no idea what to expect when we got there. Having stayed at Ariel House I can safely say would could not have made a better choice. The rooms, the service, the beds, the food - all top-notch. Usually people complain about the size of the bathrooms but such was not the case here. We were upgraded to a suite, a pleasant surprise as we were on our honeymoon, and we felt like we were being treated like ambassadors. We weren't there during a rugby match so I can imagine that having the neighboring stadium filling could be an issue from time to time but that didn't apply to us. Again, a mot excellent time was had.

comments Very comfortable and inviting inn. It was farther from town than I expected but ended up working out well since town was mostly bars and noise. It was quite peaceful and relaxing to be out of the hustle and bustle. We used the bus which was about a block and a half away and walked a ton. Very nice little restaurant near by that we visited a few times. I would recommend if you are not concerned about being in the middle of everything.

comments My husband Chris and I were very impressed with convenient location, the friendly and helpful staff, the incredibly comfortable bed, and the delicious breakfasts. We wished that the shower had a little more water pressure and that wireless internet had worked in our room, though it was not difficult to get a signal in the sitting room. Overall we thought Ariel House was the best value for our money out of all the hotels we stayed at while we were vacationing in Europe, and we would not hesitate to recommend it to others.

They served the best breakfasts we had in our two weeks all over Ireland. The setting and rooms are lovely, we were able to access the internet, and the DART was only a few steps away. We would definitely stay there again!

comments We only spent one night at Ariel House, but we can say service was great, and the house itself was lovely. We were only dissapointed by the room: our only views where to a kind of service patio, with no natural light and no beatiful at all. It looks that was the only family room available, but it was still kind of dissapointing. Anyhow, as said, service was unbeatable. Thanks!

comments One comment I can make is that I stayed at Ariel House about ten days ago,and have already booked another night's stay for Thursday . I think this says it all . But to be more explicit ,I will say that I found the location absolutely ideal,easy to reach from the centre,either on foot,or by Dart (which stopsvirtually at the door!),and the place itself exceeded my expectations . I was given a magnificent room at an incredibly reasonable rate . My only regret was that my appetite wasn't equal to the extensiveness of the breakfast delicacies . But I'll try to make up for this on Thursday ! I now fully understand the meaning of the expression:"a home from home" .Now that I know Ariel House,it will always be a pleasure to have to come to Dublin,even if only for business matters.

comments The staff was very pleasant and helpful. The location is one short block from the train station, and two longer blocks from various bus lines which give access to pretty much all of Dublin. The direct bus from the airport stops about two blocks from the hotel. Also, it is walkable to central Dublin, although somewhat on the long side. Our room was clean and comfortable. The building is of course older and as is fairly common lacks an elevator, so don't overpack for your trip. I would definitely consider staying again.

Unfortunately, our TV wasn't working, which isn't a big deal, but there was no phone to call the front desk to remedy the problem. Otherwise, we loved the Ariel house.

comments We stayed in Ariel House for a weekend in April. On the plus side, the house is comfortable, the staff are very helpful and friendly and the breakfast was excellent. The weekend rate was good value and since Dublin has become so expensive, thats seems pretty important just now. On the minus side, Ballsbridge is a little way out of the centre - a bit of a trek if you're thinking about walking into town. Also, on our first night we found the room a bit too hot, but when we mentioned this the next day the lady on reception was fine and sorted out a different room for us. Ariel House seems quite an old building and if you look hard enough you can find cracks in the plaster, but the public rooms are very nice and our bedroom was comfortable and clean.

comments My husband and I found all the Staff at Ariel House extremely pleasant, polite and helpful with information we required as well as offering us tea in the lounge. The location is good because Ariel House is close to train station and bus route, to little restaurants and shopping as well as not being too far to walk right into Dublin Centre. It will be a dream for those attending events in the Stadium once finished. Where I believe some improvement could be made is in the quality of the bedroom furniture and in the breakfast that though copious, was not always excellent. I like large flake oatmeal rather than instant porridge. I also would have enjoyed a more solid bread. Overall I would easily say that our stay at Ariel House was most pleasant and we thank you all very much. Irene Skarbek-Borowska

comments We both enjoyed our stay with you. The welcome we received on both arrival and departure were wholesome indeed. We found the room to have a high standard of comfort. The breakfast was delicious indeed. I particularly appreciated allowing us to leave our car in the parking area, while I was attending a family funeral. I have recommended your establishment to a few friends and I have no doubt that I will avail of your services on another occasion. Thanks for all your wonderful hospitality.

comments Muy bien. Una atención personal exquisita. Un desayuno muy bueno, con una parte que preparan de modo individual para cada persona. Los muebles de la habitación demasiado victorianos y el color del decorado muy oscuro. Por motivos de overbooking pusimos un correo y la noche que no nos alojamos no nos la cobraron aunque subieron un poquito las dos posteriores.

comments Una estada a dublin fantàstica. Apartat del bulliciós centre, l'ariel house es un hotelet acollidor a prop amb tren (estació a 1 min) o amb els moltíssims taxis que hi ha en la capital d'irlanda. Molt bona acollida, simpatia, si voleu anar a veure un espectacle o reservar un restaurant us ho faran ells mateixos, una habitació renovada, i un molt bon esmorzar. Recomanable l'irish breakfast. Que tingueu molt bona estada a dublin!

comments Have stayed here a few times on business trips so was expecting another good stay. However my first night was completely ruined by a noisy guest above my room which meant I didn't sleep and requested to be moved to another room for my following night's stay. The staff to their credit were apologetic and sorted out the situation. The second room was more than satisfactory. I was therefore very satisfied with the customer service but disappointed at the first night's let down. I would however stay here again.

comments The room was great and the staff even better- Deridre was so helpful and kind. She really knows Dublin and can explain directions to anyone not familiar with the area- Really nice clean room- they even brought a bed down for me to the lower level as I am partialy disabled. AND GREAT BREAKFAST. We had a young child with us and the room was plenty big enough to keep him happy. The area around is nice and quiet-yet at the center of things. I would highly recommend The Ariel House as a very pleasent, warm and friendly place to stay!

comments We were extremely satisfied with our stay, from the beautiful room (thank you for the upgrade, it was a very kind thing to do), to the superb breakfasts. The staff were all unfailingly polite, helpful and charming. We had some early tours, and the early breakfast provided made a great start for the day. The proximity to the DART and downtown, but still in a quiet and lovely suburban area was perfect. I would recommend this hotel to anyone needed a quiet place to stay in Dublin, but within very easy reach of Temple Bar and all the sights, with helpful staff and comfort.

I have stayed in hotels all over the UK and they were among the most professional I have seen in a long time our only regret is that our stay was not longer. They have justified their ratings.

comments We had a wonderful stay at Ariel House and could not fault the customer service - everyone was always very helpful and friendly. The breakfast was also wonderful, with an amazing choice of cereals, breads, fruits, juices as well as hot meals. My only suggestion would be to get a room on the first floor instead of the ground floor as we could hear everything that was going on in the room above us. It wasn't too much of a problem as we had earplugs, but next time we would definitely ask for a quieter room.

comments We have stayed several times, and never had any problems. Good value, and located in a quiet enough area, with trains barely audible through the windows (at least in the rooms I've been in). Rooms are clean and quiet, and the breakfast is a straightforward buffet of juice, tea/coffee, fruit and cereal, with your choice of cooked-to-order items like full Irish or french toast. If you're close enough to reception you can pick up the free WiFi without leaving your room.

Ariel House ist ideal, wenn man nicht direkt im Zentrum sein muss (DART-Station nur 50m entfernt). Durch den Kinderrabatt erhält man ein sehr gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis.

comments As a business visitor I found Ariel House perfectly adequate. It's extremely convenient for the RDS and for the DART station and is only a 20 minute walk from the Baggot St area, amongst other central area destinations. The room was large and well-furnished, the breakfasts excellent and the service friendly and courteous. However the condition of the bathroom did let things down a little - it could certainly have been cleaner and some tiles were hanging off. The shower was barely a trickle, though there was always plenty of hot water for the bath. I'd question the hotel's 4 star status - 3 would be more honest, though it was a relatively inexpensive stay as far as Dublin is concerned.

comments When we arrived, we were initially given a basement room which was rather dreary and didn't reflect what they showed you on the website or for what you'd expect for that kind of money. Especially as my booking had said 'superior room'. HOWEVER, they did move me when I asked and the second room was quite pleasant. The people are friendly and the breakfasts were good too. I would stay again, but be aware that B&B's are kind of different to Hotels in standard. They might want to compete a little more as it was similar to Jury's Inn prices I saw. I chose this because it was a little different. It was a good stay, but avoid the basement room! :)

comments Our room was delightfully spacious with lovely antique furniture. Breakfast was excellent with a wider range of options than those offered in much larger hotels. An excellent stay - we are already planning a return stay.

comments The staff, the breakfast, the location was excellent. The rooms on 21 and 22 June were great. I felt that the rooms , even though large during our second stay between 30 june and 3July were not as well kept. Which is why I have not given a 5 to the wonderfull place.

comments If yo don'tlike noise, then request a bedroom at the front of the house as the Dart is very loud at the back!!! The staff were extremely attentive and helpful and I would definately stay there again! The television reception was not very good though, and I could only get a few channels which was a pity.
