Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

What travellers are saying
- jsknight20Austin, TX210 contributionsIllustrated literature from the dawn of time till now is the highlight of this collection, and I can see why Mr. Beatty collected what he did. Don't miss this free museum when in central Dublin. The grounds outside are really nice too, and there was someone playing an Irish flute while we were there.Written 13 August 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- DML17Annandale, VA42 contributionsLoved visiting this place! It has a diverse offering of exhibits, covering Irish military history, jewelry, furniture, and fashion as well as a collection of Asian artifacts and art. The staff were wonderful, asking us our interests and how much time we had, then guiding us in the right direction to make the most of our experience. Being at Collins Barracks and learning military history along with pictures of the barracks through time was pretty cool. The military portion of the visit was the best, with some interactive exhibits and interesting vignettes of events.Written 30 July 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- May T9 contributionsThe quality of the works exhibited - the presentation.
The Francis Bacon studio was amazing especially the interview.
The information offered beside the works of Art made it a worthwhile venture as also educative.
There is also a great cafe with charming and helpful staff. All in all a very positive experience.Written 25 June 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Worth a visit if you have time but as it’s quite far from town, it’s not a must see.Written 3 August 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- TonyDublin, Ireland3 contributionsOver the years I’ve become a frequent visitor and friend to the Icon Walk and Factory. It’s one of those hidden gems and such a fun way to learn more about the heroes of Irish Culture. I was dismayed to hear that this project is under threat as their new landlord seeks vacant possession. It would be such a shame to see this little Gem disappear.Written 6 September 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
