The hotel has a homely feeling lounge with a microwave, fridge and coffee maker which is very convenient for breakfast/snacks. The location was very good, only a few minutes walking to DART station (three stops to city centre) and bus stops. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Check-in by codes is very easy. They also have a staff member on site most of the time. Luke was great - he was really responsive and helpful. All in all the hotel is very good value for money.

Butlers townhouse is in a nice quiet area. It is near lansdowne station, a short train to get to the center of action. There happened to be an employee there when I was checking in who was very helpful. The home is beautiful. It was a neat experience rather than staying in a hotel. The water pressure was fanastic, bed was comfy, ample space in the room. Will be staying again if im ever back!

Clean accommodation overall. A nice welcome and easy to access.
The bed was very difficult getting in and out of as it was very tall. The shower water was temperamental, running hot and cold. There seemed to be a lot of noise in the early hours of the morning, which meant we were awake from around 6am. This was both from areas outside our room, as well as noises that sounded like electrics and pipes in the building.

The location is perfect for the Aviva, difficult to do beat. The townhouse is old and some parts of the room were dated. There was a 10cm gap between the curtain and the wall, so we couldn't block out the light there. We were in room 8 and the shower water pressure was non-existant. Had to run around just to get wet.

The review is primarily for location, comfy bed, and friendly staff.

This was a fantastic place to stay for our 11 day Dublin trip. Butler's townhouse is in a friendly, slightly posh neighborhood. The building is old (200+ years) so it has some quirks with the plumbing, and there are lots of stairs. But it's super close to transit and only a 5 minute walk from several eateries and fun little pubs. You can be downtown on the Dart in 25 minutes and the Dart is very inexpensive. We loved our stay here and would definitely stay here again if (when) we return to Dublin.

I liked the small terrace and the nearby small supermarket. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable. It was nice to have coffee in the mornings and talk with the other guests. The bus to get to O’Connell street is close by right of the hotel and a few blocks down. From there you can get through most of Dublin if you know the routes. I liked our room the bed was a double and I didn’t know that meant two beds pulled together but the curtains and drapes were beautiful. They cleaned our room every day and we had a great time at this hotel. Though the fridge is shared with other guests and is in the main lobby

I stayed at their facility two different times. The first time was in room number one which was much better than room number 10. Bathroom was very small in room number 10.. The rooms do have air-conditioning, which is a great plus when it was warm. The rooms were clean just not very big. The outside of the place can use some TLC.

Butler's Townhouse Hotel is located in a very nice area. Access to transportation to get to the city centre and key tourist sites is very nearby. There are some very good restaurants within a 10 to 15 minute walk. The Aviva stadium is less than 10 minutes away.

We were given a room on the lower level that had ground floor access because my husband was recovering from pneumonia. This was very helpful and most appreciated. The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of hot water. Rooms came equipped with a kettle, tea and coffee and there is a fridge and a microwave in the shared lounge if you want to heat a quick meal.

Unfortunately there is no restaurant or breakfast onsite. Avoca Fodder and Butler's Café are nearby.

There is a lot of onsite security, eg CCTV, and we felt very secure at all times.

Thank you Butler's for a very comfortable stay.

Easy to find, tho difficult to get parked as we were there for an international rugby match. Nearest car park a good 15 minutes walk away. Normally, I suspect you'd get parked on the metered street.
Wonderful welcome from Luke who showed me to our room while the other half found the local carpark!
Luke gave me lots of informative about the local amenities which we wanted to visit before and after the match, and in the morning for breakfast.
The room itself was lovely. Very quiet, clean, perfect temperature and a wonderful 4 poster bed. Everything we needed was in the room but if we'd wanted the use of a coffee maker or microwave , those were in the living room.
Luke made sure to say goodbye as we left in the morning.
Will definitely be back.

The area was great and very easy to walk to trinity college and city center without being right there. It was 3 min walk to the DART green line as well. The area is one of the wealthiest neighborhoods so it’s super safe as well.

Butlers Townhouse made a great stay even better

I am absolutely stunned this has negative reviews, I can only assume the hotel has once again come under new management. Luke was absolutely amazing and extremely available throughout the entirety of our stay, always met us at the door to wish us a good day and even let us drop off our bags early when we arrived to early to check in.

The room was spotless and had clearly been cleaned prior to check in. Facilities were everything you need, and the beds were comfy. TV was a bit spotty, but what are you doing coming to Dublin and watching the telly?

Conveniently located, comfy, warm, well equipped and a cheaper place to stay- which is welcome in such a pricey city.

We stayed here for one night to attend a concert. Personally, this isn’t a four star hotel for me. On arrival we were lucky enough to get parked in the drive, two spaces there and metered parking on the street outside. The front of the building looks unkempt and overgrown.

No check in, all details for your room etc sent to you before hand. Very easy instructions to follow and there is a reception downstairs although we did not have cause to visit.

Decor in shared spaces beautiful. Our room wasn’t as nice. Wallpaper pealing off walls, dust, wall plugs not completely secure. The room was dated and worn. Double doors in our room with were not secure, lock appeared to be from a flimsy bolt at the top of the door. If someone had given it a hard pull it would’ve easily opened, which is a safety issue. Bathroom was modern with good shower. Kettle and coffee machines with tea coffee etc available.

Overall the room was clean and served our purpose to sleep in before leaving early the next morning. I don’t feel this is a four star hotel and the photos on their website/apps definitely do not match the room we stayed in.

The renovation of this property has been well done, however they have missed a few marks. 1. The self check in did not go well We did not receive the proper emails to get into the building. 2. One of the better rooms with a beautiful bed had a back garden full of rubbish. Another premium room that we had did not have in room heating and although we reported the remote malfunction for the ceiling A/C nothing was ever resolved and we used a space heater. Neither coffee maker worked properly and only one kettle worked. Pillows in one room were lovely but in the other, they could not be described as a cushion.
