About
Stay above one of Dublin’s most famous traditional pubs, just steps from St Stephen’s Green. Located beside St Stephen's Green and just a short walk from Grafton Street and Trinity College Dublin, O'Donoghue's offers a unique stay in the heart of Dublin city center. Guests can experience the lively atmosphere of the famous traditional Irish pub below, known for its nightly live music and rich musical heritage. Each room was fully refurbished in 2026 and includes free Wi-Fi, a private bathroom with walk-in shower and hairdryer, TV, refrigerator, and tea and coffee making facilities. The property is within easy walking distance of Dublin’s main attractions, museums, restaurants and shopping streets, while excellent public transport connections including the LUAS, buses and nearby DART stations make it easy to explore further afield. Please note the guest house sits directly above a lively traditional pub with nightly live music, so guests should expect noise in the evenings, particularly at weekends. The building has three floors and no elevator, and all rooms are reached by stairs. Check-in is at the bar, and the guest house has its own separate entrance beside the pub.
