    The room was on the small side, the coffee at breakfast wasn't the best and could have done with being hotter.

    Very stylish hotel, nice and cosy room with cool features (like a guitar), comfortable bed, really good shower, nice restaurant on the top floor with great views, serving an excellent brunch.

    Comfortable, clean and perfect for 1 night in the city.

    • Small Double Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    The room was a little small and I could hear TVs from others rooms and noise from the street. I stayed a Sunday night so it quieted down after 11pm or so. I was thinking of getting room service but honestly the food from the restaurant was super expensive so I ended up heading out for dinner instead.

    The room was quite small but lovely and decked out with lots of high quality extras such as a dyson hairdryer, slippers, hot water bottle and snacks and full mini bar. If you wanted these beverages or snacks they cost extra but it was nice to have the opion. Bed was comfy and shower was lovely.

    Bedroom unusual with the bunk at the end of the bed but for one night stay it was great. Shower was fantastic

    We just really enjoyed the Devlin experience, parking was a little bit away but was very safe. Staff were lovely and the breakfast was outstanding. We will definitely stay there again. And for added pleasure we dined at Mama Yo!! Delicious

    Rooms incredibly small, but they are well thought out in terms of facilities.

    The whole look and vibe of the place was wonderful. We arrived, tired and late, but the minute you walk through the doors The Devlin has an energy of its own.

    Very expensive for a tiny room with a bed pushed up against the wall on three sides

    • Small Double Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    The room, although described as small, was much smaller than anticipated. The bed was comfy and big enough but there was no prior indication that it was up against the window/wall which meant that the person near the wall had to try and climb over the other to get in and out. For people our age in our 70's this isn't easy. The room was VERY expensive for what it is.

    Everything but the bed and size of room

    Nothing

    Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Very comfortable bed with gorgeous hotel decor. Located in a lovely village - we found Ranelagh to be nicer than Dublin City centre with plenty of bars, restaurants and cafes. Great location for transport - walking distance to both Ranelagh and Beechwood Luas stops. Lovely food and even nicer drinks/cocktails. Rooftop bar with views of the area.

    The rooms are VERY small. I know they say they are small and for what we needed for one night it was fine. Bearing in mind we paid just under €400 for that one night I don’t think we’d justify staying again purely for leisure purposes which is unfortunate. Laylas the rooftop bar is advertised a lot and they also mention cocktails etc. When we arrived we asked to see their cocktail menu in the americanas bar (14:30 in the afternoon) and we were they don’t do them during the day. It was a beautiful sunny evening and we were staying for a concert so we then headed to the rooftop just before leaving but as it happens that is only for food and not for just drinks . The website is a bit misleading on this.

    Breakfast was lovely. Though slightly overpriced. We paid an additional €40 to get breakfast when checking in. Slightly expensive even by todays inflation standards. Then when we arrived for breakfast and seen the prices we actually only would have spent €37.50 had we not bothered adding on as guests, therefore there isn’t much incentive to bother. We were also slightly confused as we weren’t sure should we stay within the €40 or could we get whatever we want (as is the case with other hotels) BUT what we did have was lovely and the staff were amazing and VERY friendly.

    No wardrobe, which is fine for a single traveler but could be an issue for 2 people. My room was from the street side which was very loud. far from the centre.

    Super clean, the location was good for what I needed it for but a bit far away from the city centre. Very clean room, great facilities.

    As expected, Dublin is not a cheap weekend - despite this I would say that the Devlin is good value, and if you're going you may as well do it properly i'd say.

    Everything about the hotel is done to a very high standard, the room, restaurant, staff and rooftop bar are all really well done. Having not been to Dublin before, the location is also excellent because there is plenty to do nearby if you don't want the chaos of Temple Bar.
