Great place to stay very central with lovely local amenities- Staff so friendly and professional- Parking available at no extra cost which is good as most city parking expensive
My only complaint is sleep disruption due to the very noisy adjoining room doors banging when people leave or return- perhaps some cushioning on door frames

This was my first time traveling to Dublin, so I was a bit anxious about whether I would be in a good area while also having easy access to the city. Ariel House was the PERFECT location. It was a short 3 min walk to the train station, so we could be in the downtown district within a 10-15 minutes, but we were far enough away to get away from the hustle and bustle of life. It's also a stone's throw from the Aviva Stadium, so if someone is attending an event at that venue, Ariel House is within walking distance.

The room was beautiful and the complimentary breakfast each morning was delicious. I'm from the US and get the typical \"continental\" style breakfast, but this was far beyond that. We were able to eat a hot breakfast, have a cup of coffee/tea/juice, and ease into our day. I HIGHLY recommend Ariel House with it's beautiful Victorian Style drawing room and spacious suites.

The hotel was beautiful and cozy. The staff was welcoming and helpful at every turn. Breakfast was decent. Many other reviews noted the \"great\" location. I think a better adjective would be \"affluent\". The location was nice, quiet, and clearly a wealthy residential area, but it was further away from the touristy things than I usually would have chosen. There were hardly any restaurants and 0 pubs within a 30 min walk. It was a 40+ minute walk to all the sites we planned to see- not unbearable, but not as convenient as other places I have previously stayed. We were told there was a bus stop nearby, but if you are like us and prefer to walk, prepare to add extra walking time to your itinerary.

We were graciously greeted by the concierge, offered tea or coffee and cake/cookies in the drawing room. He then helped carry our luggage to our room. We wanted a different room and the concierge quickly accommodated our request and once again helped us to our new room. Both rooms were nice but we wanted more of a view.

The room was clean and the bed was comfortable and very clean. We appreciated the heavy blackout curtains so we could sleep in the next day.

Breakfast was wonderful, the service was polite and prompt and the selection was excellent giving us a great start to our day in the city.

We found that walking to the National Gallery, Trinity College, Ha’Penny, and shopping was just a 20 minute walk from the hotel.

We departed early, before breakfast was to be served but they put together a take-away for us and fresh coffee. The concierge once again helped with the luggage to taxi that he had called for us, right on time.

Truly a great stay, looking forward to staying with the Ariel Hotel next time we are in Dublin.

The breakfast was delicious. Classic Irish breakfast with lots of options and self serve as well. Felt like royalty being able to serve ourselves drinks in the living room foyer. And our rooms were so pretty loved the decore, the tall ceilings, chandeliers, wallpaper, and super nice staff. We loved it so much we booked our last day in Dublin here again. Parking on site is amazing and the train is right down the street (very quiet you can’t tell) & you can take it into the downtown city area. Perfect little spot!! We lucked out with this find :) -Angela

Loved this hotel in Dublin. The rooms were very clean, quiet, and nice- all slightly different in layout and design. Staff was friendly and very helpful. Breakfast was awesome and in the afternoon you could have coffee, tea, and some cookies in the drawing room. Parking was available. We ended up using Uber to get around because the weather was drizzly and cold. In nicer weather you could walk to Grafton Street. Highly recommend.

I cannot say enough good things about the Ariel House. It's charming, inviting and welcoming. The room are very clean. Bathrooms are small but the walk in shower was a big plus. Breakfast was good. Nice selection on the menu.
The only down fall is there is no lift. Quite a few steps, However, Emerson was very helpful carrying our suitcases to our rooms.

Nice historical building with well appointed rooms and great breakfasts. Good location. On the negative side, it feels like staff lacks training and customer attention. Every time you approached them with a question, they made it feel like you were interrupting them and were an imposition. Your job as hotel staff is to look after your guests.

Very nice, historic, Victorian style house. Breakfast every morning was great. 30 minutes from the airport. 1-2 miles from City Center, which was great for us because we love to walk, but also far enough away from the crowds of downtown. Would definitely consider going back

We had a wonderful time at Ariel House, which location in Dublin was convenient. The Dart that take you to the central is just a few minutes short walk away. Service was spot on, everyone passionately served us like a family. Loved the beautiful centuries old mansion's exterior/ interior . The afternoon cookies, pastries, tea, coffee in the drawing room was amazing with opportunity to read, play chess or just relax and hang around with other travelers. Our room was spotless and comfortable. I requested a softer pillow and it was promptly delivered to our room. Breakfast ( freshly made hot by order) was delicious and plenty.
All together top notch service at every level.

The property is a Heritage home which I did not realize. The breakfast was free and it was served in the dining room of the home which wasn’t very big so you had to wait for a seat. No bar or other restaurant. Too quiet for my liking!

We were “upgraded” to a deluxe suite. online pics/description showed large rooms, sitting area and king sized beds. We got a moderate room, 2 chairs & a FULL sized bed. The vast difference prompted me to go to reception to ask what your of room we got. There was hardly ever anyone at the reception desk to speak to after that. We were also told about the breakfast/times. We asked about ordering in to our room, and was told yes we could. The next morning when we called to order, the woman went to ask the kitchen. She came back and told us that the kitchen said they were too busy to accommodate us. When my husband went down to grab some things, all that was left was a handful of pastries…it was 9am. We left the “please tidy” placard on our door, as the housekeeping was next door when we left we told the desk that our tub drain was running slowly and water was sitting during our shower. We were assured that maintenance would take care of it. We returned late afternoon to find our room not cleaned. No one was available so I had to email to request the cleaning and maintenance again. When we returned, there was no one at the desk, we called later..again no one. I emailed about ordering breakfast..no reply..still. Next day when showering, noticed that maintenance had not been done. My husband went down to grab breakfast and again, only a handful of pasties and one spoonful of fruit @930. Coffee maker was broken. There was always either no water or no glasses available in

Excellent Hotel.

An elegant accommodation option for discovering Dublin and its surroundings.

I would classify it as a boutique hotel, where the Victorian atmosphere and attention to detail are paramount.

Its rooms are spacious, bright, and very comfortable.

And its food, specializing in delicious breakfasts, is very good and high-quality.

Another highlight of this hotel is its staff: friendly, helpful, and willing to help at any time.

We spent four nights as a family and were very happy with our stay, recommending it.

This is a beautiful B&B. I would highly recommend this spot and would stay here again The included breakfast was delicious and there was good variety

The location is quieter, not around much, but transit station is walkable and easy to figure out

If you’re so inclined-Dublin City Centre is a good 25 minute walk, maybe 30.

Beautiful property and fantastic staff! We got an upgrade on checking in without even asking, thank you. The breakfast in the conservatory is very special, so tasty and beautifully presented. The only very small thing which I feel would improve it is a shelf in the bathroom for toiletries. A minor detail I know but balancing them on the edge of the bath became a bit frustrating. We would definitely stay here again if coming back to the area.

Exceptional, but remote

They boast the best breakfast in Dublin, and I agree. The rooms are elegant and spacious, the staff excellent. My only heads-up would be that it is far from the city center. The Dart station is right by the hotel, but the Dart doesn’t take you exactly where you want to go. I averaged 5 miles a day walking because of its remoteness. If you’re attending an event at the Aviva stadium, then you are literally next door.

Superb

My colleague had the pleasure of staying at Ariel House in Ballsbridge, and I must say it was a truly charming experience. From the moment she arrived, the warm hospitality and welcoming atmosphere made her feel right at home.

The location is ideal – situated in a peaceful and elegant part of Dublin, yet only a short distance from the city centre. It’s also very convenient for attending events at the Aviva Stadium, which is just a short walk away.

The rooms were beautifully presented, combining classic elegance with modern comfort. The bed was exceptionally comfortable, and the room was spotless, quiet, and well-equipped.

What truly sets Ariel House apart is the personal touch in service. The staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and always ready to assist. It felt like a genuine Irish welcome throughout the stay.

Breakfast deserves a special mention – freshly prepared, with a wide selection of delicious options, including homemade breads and pastries. The dining room itself was cosy and elegant, adding to the overall experience.

Overall, Ariel House is a gem of a hotel – perfect for both business and leisure travellers who appreciate comfort, character, and exceptional service. I would highly recommend it and look forward to returning.

We absolutely LOVED our stay at Ariel House. It was the perfect place to land after a transatlantic flight, and we were so grateful the staff allowed us to check in early--the nap felt soooo good before we went exploring the city. Plus, I had mentioned to the manager that we were coming to Ireland to celebrate my son's graduation, and he went above and beyond with a card and welcome dessert. Look at the pics! The breakfast was outstanding, and the servers could not have been more kind. The location was perfect, as it's away from the noise of the city but a 2-minute walk to the DART train that drops you right in the middle of it all. We stayed here two nights and then traveled around the country. Throughout our travels we kept coming back to Ariel House as one of the highlights. We'd stay here again in a heartbeat!
