“good base- great price”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 February 2012

people found this review helpful

stayed here with partner for one night as attending event in town.
PROS: very good location, walk to Stephens green in about then mins, good traffic flow outside if need a taxi, receptionist friendly and informative, free wifi, clean bedding, quite environment, facillities such as hair-dryer, iron adequate towels etc. provided.

CONS: we were on the top floor room 44 (3rd floor), no lifts and a LOT of stairs, i was really puffed by the time i got to room (it could be just me though-haven't been the gym in a while) probably not appropriate for anyone with poor mobility. room was adequate size could do with a tiny bit of modernisation- but it is very clean.

overall: we did only pay 65euro for a Saturday night in Dublin so cant fault it and would stay there again, if honest would only recommend, if looking for somewhere to sleep for the night, wouldn't fancy staying a few nights due to room size.

Room Tip: high up for less road noise, but lower down if poor mobility-lots of stairs and no lift

“Great place to stay in Dublin”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 January 2012

Location: great. Accomodations: comfortable, clean. Staff: very helpful, friendly. I highly recommend this lodging for a stay in Dublin. I stayed there in December and found it a very easy walk from Trinity College and many restaurants and shops. Big bonus: if you are there on the weekend, parking in front of the townhouse is free!

Room Tip: Book early! Try to get one on the lower floors as the steps are steep.

“Fitzwilliam Townhouse”

Pleasant enough place with friendly/helpful owner. Slightly noisy from traffic and a few late night revellers but would have no hesitation in staying here again particularly now that the excellent owner has agreed to instal a lift for the use of us unfit, old 'uns who struggle with the stairs in this lovely Georgian townhouse.

Room Tip: Ask for a room on a lower floor.

“Clean and convenient”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 December 2011

All in all, my family and I were very pleased with our stay in Fitzwilliam townhouse this weekend. In general, I found it difficult to find a family room in the city centre that would cater for four people. Not only was our family room here clean, cosy and quite big, but very reasonably priced too.
The Fitzwilliam townhouse is a short stroll from St. Stephens Green shopping centre, just straight down the road frm the Shelbourne hotel (but at a fraction of the cost!!). I would advise people that it is very conveniently located for the Grafton Street area, but quite a stroll from the Henry Street/ Talbot street area (though the Number 10 bus would get you to O' Connell Street quite quickly)
We experienced no problems with noise, even though there were quite a few bars located nearby and we stayed on a Friday night. The staff were very friendly indeed, and the rooms were clean. I found the decor fine, there were a few cracked tiles in the bathroom, and the wallpaper was peeling in one area, but really, when you compare prices with other hotels/ guesthouses, I think it's a small price to pay. I cannot comment on the food, as we stayed "Room only"
I would stay here again, and I would have no problem in recommending it to others.

“Fitzwilliam Townhouse Dubin”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 December 2011

people found this review helpful

We had an wonderful stay at Fitzwilliam. We were there from Oct 4-6. It was chilly, windy and sometimes a bit drizzly, but our rooms were warm and cozy. The rooms were spotlessly clean with fresh linens each day. The bed was very comfy. The Fitzwilliam is within walking distance of just about everything. The price was a great value for Dublin. But the best thing about the Fitzwilliam was the staff. I cannot say enough good things about the staff. They helped us with check-in, check-out, transportation, entertainment, boarding passes, and all with friendly smiles and great attitudes. Absolutely terrific customer service. I would highly recommend the Fitzwilliam Townhouse to anyone staying in Dublin!

Room Tip: The downstairs room across from the front desk has a fireplace, but there is a bit of street noise...
