Ariel House

I discovered this address with Hotels.com. The reality was even nicer than the pictures/decription. Highly recommended! Patrick

Séjour dans cet hôtel pour 2 nuits. Situé idéalement à 2 pas du stade. 35 mn à pied du centre mais facile à faire. Quartier très calme. L'hôtel est charmant, avec un salon accueillant pour passer un moment. Gâteaux et boisson fraîche ou chaude à volonté. Le personnel est vraiment sympathique et chaleureux. L'hôtel est globalement propre. Le petit déjeuner est bien et copieux. Notre chambre, très jolie, mais manque de chauffage, il y faisait frais malgré le chauffage. La salle de bain, vraiment vieillotte, fraîche, les serviettes de toilettes pas très épaisses. Le tablier de la baignoire est même cassé, on voit que la salle de bain mérite une bonne rénovation. Pour le prix demandé et le standing qu'on y attend, ces deux points sont préjudiciables à une très bonne note. Dernière chose, la lumière du couloir reste allumée toute la nuit, et ce n'est pas une veilleuse ! Dommage pour l'environnement. Sinon, j'y reviendrai avec plaisir

A fabulous fancy bed and breakfast. Lovely place and wonderful stay. Best of all was the made to order breakfasts.

A beautiful characterful property. Excellent friendly and helpful staff. Great freshly cooked breakfast. Free tea/coffee and cakes in a lovely lounge area. Would highly recommend

We came for the Rugby Test between NZ & Ireland. Location fantastic its literally next door to stadium. Breakfast is delicious really yummy. Staff were polite. Our room was spacious Would stay again

We recently stayed at Ariel House for a week with friends to celebrate our daughter’s graduation. The hotel has a charming, quaint feel, with beautiful period decor that fits the setting, but there were several aspects that could definitely be improved. Starting with the positives, the hotel’s ambiance is cozy and quintessentially Irish, which initially set a warm and welcoming tone. The location is also convenient for exploring and within walking distance of the Aviva Stadium which makes it specially convenient for concert goers. However, we did find some areas lacking. The amenities are minimal for what we would consider a luxury stay. Some of the front desk staff were very accommodating, attentive and displayed great customer service. However, other staff members seemed less geared toward hospitality which led to a mixed experience towards attentiveness. Our room’s bathroom, especially the shower, could use some updating. Water was leaking onto the floor every time we used the shower, an inconvenience we noticed throughout our stay. Also, the bedding would benefit from a refresh to enhance comfort. Lastly, housekeeping not always replenished toiletries, which required us to follow up with the front desk at first. Overall, while Ariel House has a certain charm and a good location, it could benefit from more attentive customer service and updates to the rooms to bring it closer to luxury standards. It’s a nice option for a short stay if you value atmosphere over amenities.

Probably the cutest hotel I’ve ever stayed in. The staff was lovely, as was the room we stayed in. It is on a quiet, more residential street, but quite close to the Dublin Train, and a fairly short walk to city center as well. The breakfast was delicious. I’d love to come back!

Beautiful hotel and the staff were exemplary. I will stay here again and also recommend it to others

Great area to stay if you prefer a quiet area, but still want to be close to transit/ the city centre.

Dublin can definitely be heaven and walking into town at 5pm on Friday, just as people were getting off work and walking into town too, reminded me of that. It's such a beautiful walk from Lansdowne Road into town and the road brings you to some of my favourite places in the city centre, Merrion Square, Nassau Street, Trinity College. Ariel House is an ideal place to stay in Dublin. To leave there in the morning, after a sumptuous breakfast, in a light-filled dining room, and return there for coffee or tea and cake in the drawing room, with time for a good browse of the Irish Times (generously provided by Ariel House), gives a sense of having a luxurious home from home. I think the ideal thing would be to have a midweek break in Ariel House, staying two or three nights, to enjoy the house, the area (Ballsbridge) and the people, both staff and guests, with whom there is plenty of opportunity to chat. From the staff: unstinting kindness, consideration, warmth, and friendliness. I'd like to see Ariel House in every season. Kudos to all! You do a great job! Thank you! And oh yes, the bedroom was perfect too!

We enjoyed our stay at the Ariel House. It is very conveniently located next to the train station. We did not want to stay in the city center so this was a great location for our desires. The gourmet breakfast was as good as they said it would be, very very good. We loved the little atrium room breakfast was served in. The box breakfast was so nice to have on the way to our early flight. Very accommodating, the great room with snacks coffee and tea was a treat.

A little gem close to the national stadium in Dublin. Described as a B&B but better than many 3* hotels I have stayed in. Good location for Aviva Stadium. Not too far from city centre. All staff very friendly and helpful.

The room looks a little tired but it was clean. Breakfast was wonderful. Good location close to train station. Parking lot was tiny. We arrived late and had to park in un impossible spot.

This place is amazing! I would rate it higher if possible. It’s the best hotel I’ve ever stayed in. The staff was incredible. I truly felt like I was at home during my stay. I WILL be back next time I’m in Ireland!

Excellent location. Very relaxing surroundings and such an enjoyable stay.

Mycket pampig och fint hotell med mycket god frukost. Dock kunde vi inte ta sista dagens frukost och fick ett torftig frukost med oss till flygplatsen som bestod av torrt bröd, smör, marmelad, vatten, liten muffin och en banan. Badrummet var slitet och behöver en reperation. Sköna sängar och högt i taket som kändes lyxigt.

Nice breakfast but room downgraded and early check in fee of $30 I found outrageous Noisy and old facilities Not really value for money

Finding the property was very easy using sat nav. On arrival was very pleased until we entered the room we found someone else clothes in the room. My husband didnt get a wink of sleep due to the heating system being really loud every 20mins outside our window. Then breakfast we were told there was a waiting list and we didnt mind until we were forgotten about and i had to remind the young lady 25mins later. The breakfast was mediocre.

Staff were friendly and helpful Rooms was clean and tidy Location ideal Would definitely recommend

We enjoyed a great stay at The Ariel. We enjoyed a room upgrade due to it being our anniversary...this was a lovely surprise; the room was fabulous. Arrived in to complimentary cakes. Breakfast was excellent, staff friendly and helpful. Will definitely be back sometime.
