I stayed for three nights last week and enjoyed it throughoutly. Hostel had an excellent location, the staff was friendly and helpful and the dorms clean and cozy. Also the free stuff was awesome - especially the free dinner on Wednesday saved me since I was broke and didn't have money to buy food. Also the complimentary breakfast helped a... More

The staff at the hostel was very helpful and gave us all the help we needed to find our way around. We stayed in a private room where both bathroom and room were very clean.... More

I stayed here two nights during my travel through Dublin and had an excellent time, and I was even in the 10 bed dorm! This is a bigger hostel, but there's still a big community feeling. The fact that there's a great tv and free coffee/hot chocolate/tea in the main room really helps in bringing people together in the awesome... More

It's safe, clean, warm, great value for money, nice atmosphere and the staff are lovely. There was even free food and wine on some days. A great choice if you want somewhere decent to stay and...

We were at the Times Hostel in early November and it really is downtown! Great location and close to Temple Bar and some great pubs. We stayed in a double room which was spacious for a hostel and two people, but close to the kitchen which made it noisy in the early mornings. Staff were really friendly and helpful. Parking... More

Super nice staff, room not that big but clean, friendly atmosphere, free activities - welcome drinks, city tour (which was real fun!), pancakes, dinner. Also location was amazing, just meters from Temple Bar area, which comes with some street noise, they... More
