Gardiner House Hostel

It’s in a friendly area

- Free breakfast- Friendly staff during check in and check out and explained everything correctly- Small box locker to store your personal belongings inside the room (bring your own lock)- Common area in the basement was good

- Couldn't really sleep due to the noise pollution (not controllable by the hostel)- No circulation of air inside the room. Even with the windows open, it didn't make a difference. For feedback, add personal small fans into each bunk.- Showers were somewhat dirty- No free soap and shampoo, you must bring your own stuff. However, they do let you know when you book it. They advise you it can be purchased at the reception for a charge. Which is greatly appreciated.

The bed was more comfortable than I expected from a hostel. I also really liked that they had hard-boiled eggs at breakfast. It was nice to have something beyond carbs! All of the staff were great as well.

The hostel was a little further from the town center than I expected. It was still easily walkable, just a little more of a walk than I was planning on.

The hostel was a lot cleaner than I expected - and I had feared the worst, given that the more popular hostels had horrible reviews. I really appreciated that they cleaned the rooms and bathrooms every day. I also slept really well! The bed was so comfortable I almost overslept a few times. I was also able to catch up on work in the common room, as it's convenient for both lounging and working. Overall, I was glad I chose this place, especially since it was my first time staying at a hostel. Bonus points for the other guests - I don't think I came across any loud or rowdy groups during my stay there.

Nothing comes to mind. Really liked my stay.

Easy to check in, location was near a bus stop by the airport. I didn't spend much time there to really see what it was about but for the most part it looked like a pretty nice place.

I came there around 9 or 10 p.m. and checked in. I don't remember there being a note about the size of lock that the lockers could accommodate and mine were all too thick so I had to sleep with all of my stuff in the bunk. The only other issue was when I got in and used the bathroom, there were drops of poop all over the bathroom floor which was the only negative thing. Not to say that the bathroom was dirty otherwise. It was just that. Also, it would be good if there was a selection option to say whether you needed a lower bunk if you are handicap. I was able to climb the railing to the top bunk but in other situations in the past I wouldn't have been able to.

The guys working at the reception desk were awesome!

Unfortunately, my stay was very unpleasant due to constant noise. For several hours during the day, there was loud construction work happening inside the hostel, which made it impossible to rest at all. What I found especially unacceptable is that this work continued during the afternoon and evening quiet hours.Also, two girls staying in my room were extremely inconsiderate and rude. They were constantly shouting at each other and playing loud videos and music on their phones. While I understand that this behavior is not entirely the hostel’s fault, it should be clearly communicated and managed, as basic respect in shared rooms is essential.On top of that, the toilet was dirty, there were visible feces on the toilet seat, which is completely unacceptable from a hygiene standpoint.

I wasn’t impressed

The location not enough parking, very loud couldn’t get rest.

It was different from other hostels. The bed has more privacy ever thought the room is crowded. The breakfast was amazing with different options.

The bathroom is so tiny.. no towels provided and shampoo. The breakfast was great but the staff were rude when asking questions because this is my first time with this system. Fortunately, some customers were friendly and helped me instead. Also, the price is costly in comparison with space provided

Modern Clean Hostel.Breakfast Boiled Eggs, Bread ,Jams. Apples Oranges and Bananas and also Cornflakes and other cereals.Lovely Brazilian beauties working there, Definitely one of the best hostels in Dublin or Europe.Bit far out walking from Talbot Street and Upper Gardner street is Not A continuation of Lower Gardner street as you have Mountjoy Square in between Both upper and Lower Gardner street.

more signs inside hostel would be great,

The pod-style beds were comfortable and offered nice privacy in a dorm setting with others

A bit away from the center and from main transportation

Location is very close to the City center, the price was reasonable, clean, well equipped particularly kitchen has all the utensils for cooking which is really convenient for backpackers.

There is almost everything fine about the property but one thing that I didn’t really like that during check-in they ask to provide debit card information which I don’t think reasonable I mean if they want some security deposit, they should make some arrangement with the Booking.com but after paying everything in advance, and then again providing card details doesn’t really make sense.

Best (big) dorms i've been so far & good kitchen

Kitchen closes

Did not like it at all

The beds that are close at the chapel are super hot inside it needs a bigger fan ! I arrive super late and my bed was dirty and food crumbles everywhere I was tired from traveling. The breakfast is just toast and very hard boiled eggs. The location iant great either is far from the center and for such price is better to stay in the center The bathroom showers ceilings are falling apart and there mooh on the walls is disgusting.The price isn’t worth it no shampo or soap on the showers and no towel included

Lovely staff! Everything super clean and staff super gentle and helpful.

There are no lift...just stairs... It's not that good to go to your room and left when you have a big suitcase

Nicely organised hostel for it's size, quite clean and comfortable. The breakfasts was simple but quite fine

Bathroom and dorm (chapel) were cold, first night I couldn't fall asleep as I couldn't warm up

Property was lovely. Very clean and in a good location. Leo was amazing at checkout!

Lovely lady Analia on reception who got me a bottom bunk as I injured my knee. Easy hotel to find. So glad sheet was down in the bed so just assemble duvet and pillow. Was ok. I would stay for less people in the room. 8 beds and one bathroom is tricky. People nice say hello.

But walls are so thin. So selfish people slamming doors etc woke me up in the room, upstairs, same floor. People in the room being loud too. Talking, moving things and general noise. Lift is a bit rickety. Breakfast is very standard and limited. Kicked out at 10.30am but staff are very nice.

Easy walk from Connolly train station

The area not great late at night.The breakfast very basic.The washroom in the room not very clean and no soap or shampoo in the shower

Cold. Smelly. No toilet seat. Sink water back up. Drunk mani with flask. Cold. Smelly.

Great hostel perfect location inside the city and great staff!!Id like to give a special thanks Annara ?
