Jurys Inn Christchurch, Dublin

Advantages: Very centrally located, good standard 3-star hotel with reasonable prices
Disadvantages: A bit noisy if you get a front facing room

This Jury's Inn, one of three in Dublin city, is ideally located for accessing the city centre, as are all Jury's Dublin Inns) It's situated in Christchurch Place, about 5 minutes walk from the drinking dens of Temple Bar (heh, heh) and Grafton Street (the main shopping area) and College Green. (Trinity College and the Central Bank) Dublin Castle is about one minute's walk and the Guinness Hop Store, the single most visited tourist attraction in ...
...walk away. It's also directly opposite Christchurch Cathedral, and just around the corner from St. Patrick's Cathedral. So you're ideally located whatever your preference; a night on the tiles, followed by a Sunday service the following morning to confess your sins of the night before. Mind you, both the city's main Cathedrals are of the Protestant persuasion, so probably don't go in for confession. (But that's another story!) This hotel is another ... Read review

Advantages: Clean, keenly priced hotel
Disadvantages: bar open to the public

...Jury's Christchurch Inn in Dublin is ideally situated opposite the Christchurch cathedral in the city, a short walk from Dublin castle and the main streets in Dublin where you will find the majority of the bars and restuarants. The hotel can be reached easily from Dublin's airport, using either a taxi (around £20) or the special Airlink bus service that operates frequently between Dublin's airport and the river. The hotel is fairly modern, and the rooms though not luxurious, do offer a good standard of accomodation, with full en-suite facilities, orthapedic beds and satellite television facilities. The hotel is a family hotel and does allow kids to stay - this may be a problem for some, as the last thing you want on your romantic break away is a load of screming kids in the hotel foyer - especially if they are someone else...

Advantages: Great day out
Disadvantages: none that I can think of, except maybe check opening times before you arrive

...as you're looking towards the river. Buy you fish and chips downstairs, carry it to the first floor and try to get a seat by the big window that looks onto O Connell Street - just watch Dublin moving by! Burdocks is south of the river, across the road from Christchurch and just around the corner from Jury's Inn. It is famous in Dublin as the "best chipper, ever". You cannot sit down there, however. Take your chips into Christchurch and sit on the grass, or, if you walk out of Burdocks, turn left and keep going in this direction you'll find a quaint little park just past Jury's with seats. Be warned! Burdocks close their door when they run out of food, which is often, so get there early for your lunch (12.30ish). Bewleys cafes were once the preferred coffee houses for Dubliners. They shocked everyone by closing a few years ago... Read review
