Don't justify the price. The two entrance rooms are the staging for the photos, the rest of the hotel is good, not fabulous. The price is for a high standard.
Breakfast is cooked at the moment but really grease.

Excellent hotel, much bigger than i thought. Checking in was straightforward, and the front desk were very helpful in showing us to our room, and later assisting with the operation of the heating control.
Although we did not have a pet with us, the fact that water bowls for digs whete in the room was a wonderful tpuch.
All in all, would highly recommend the hotel, location was perfect for us.

It’s too expensive for what it is. I traveled with a pet and the accommodation was not worth the extra fees. The breakfast was fine, but the security of the room was poor, and the room was WAY too hot - I had to sleep without blankets in the room in early February! Staff said the radiant heating was the cause. Even with a window open and the heat turned down, it was very unpleasant.

Good hotel with transport links to the city, though the area itself has several food options there arent many ‘attractions’ to see in the vicinity of the hotel. Having said that, the river area is a 20 minute bus ride and the hotel staff, breakfast and room size is excellent. I would have liked a street view and not a view of a wall, albeit the art on the wall is great! Overall was a good stay, quiet and comfortable

I liked the UpperCRoss for a lot of reasons, it was clean, historic, with free parking.
We arrived fairly late on Saturday due to a flight delay. The bars outside were packed and loud. The front lobby was pounding with bass. It was noisy until after 2.
Breakfast was wonderful, and overall, it’s a great place if you’re a young person looking for easy pub access and nightlife close by.

Uppercross House is a wonderful way to experience a Dublin stay just a few minutes bus ride from city center amid the many stores, pubs and sites the city has to offer away from the crowds! The food and pub provide a wonderful respite after a day of touring! We enjoyed the chance to be in an area that afforded us a chance to experience hotels of another genre that had history on display!

Very nice staff and excellent location and price. Not a luxury hotel, and on the older side. However, it is very convenient and you probably can't find a better price for the location. A bit standard room and mine looked out on to a parking lot. So, just keep that in mind. The common areas are nice, but the room I had while clean was not particularly inviting.

Staff trendy and warm with good taste in music in the bar the beer garden is just hip and full of rustic bespoke wooden furniture and plants plants galore just love it! Brought my wee dog he settled in quickly and they even left lovely wee silver bowls and a gift pack for him.

Good clean hotel in a nice neighborhood with great food!
The price on this hotel plus it’s clean comfortable (and delicious) stay more than makes up for the fact that it isn’t downtown. I could walk about 20 minutes and be in the thick of Dublin, but most times didn’t need to. The neighborhood has plenty of very good pubs and restaurants (and Mother Reiley’s which is attached to the hotel is very good plus has a lively and fun pub life) and across the street is a market and a mall is just a few steps down the road. The included breakfast is excellent!!!!
I totally recommend this nice hotel especially for the budget conscious traveler.

Like all things in life, you get what you pay for. To find a hotel in Dublin, B&B and free parking under €100, you have to be willing to accept some down sides. For me this came in the form of a room that needed modernisation, a noisy bathroom extractor and an even noisier evening coming from the attached pub through the old single glazing with little to no sound proofing. Can not fault the staff or service though.

Still much better than a hostel

We've booked a \"pet friendly\" Hotel, a room for us and our aging, small (9kg) dog.
Were told at the reception that we will be allowed to stay in a \"smoking\" room.
Hair on a bathroom floor. Suspiciously looking rust and moisture on a towel rack. Few other small, annoying things that don't have a place in 2019 hotel. Overall, stay \"ok\" for the money... Wonder what would HSE have to say about walled off and roofed \"beer/smokers garden\" jobie 😅

Breakfast was nice enough, cleaning staff and servers very nice.
Quiet unprofessional in that they're spread around the couches in the reception area sweating tired or smoking just outside front doors, but still nice to deal with.

Lovely Hotel, Even Lovelier Staff

This was my second stay at the Uppercross and I can't recommend it enough. It comes with mod cons that a lot of huge hotel chains either don't offer or have the gall to charge extra for (such as free wifi and a personal safe,) and I don't think I've ever stayed anywhere with more friendly staff.

Only downsides are, being twinned with a pub, the general noise at weekends could be an issue for some and it's location is pretty far from the town centre I think, but transport links are abundant and it's a nice walk if you're able.
